They do not care about voters. This has never been more clear. They did the same thing with the prop for medical marijuana, but this one is just despicable.

I'm seeing reporting from CNN that Trump's legal team reached out to the Special counsel in the wake of Friday's Buzzfeed story 🤨 I think the new story is going to be ‘candidate’. Therefore not president and not illegal

I found this thread to be helpful. This year H and I started talking a lot about MLK and plan to continue our at home history and social justice conversations. We both did comment that it was hard for us to talk about slavery and racial injustice in more in depth manners because we felt we were shattering some of DS’s innocence. We are doing it anyways because we know it’s right, but these words of advice and call to action are helpful.

I don’t know what’s worse - Pence quoting MLK Jr or the NRA tweeting about him.
It’s all so wrong.

I think this is really important but I'll admit I had no idea how to talk about this with my three y/o. So, if anyone is interested I did a little googling and found a nice list of books, movies and activities to kick start these important conversations. They're listed by age, starting at birth and going up to age 12. bouncebackparenting.com/resources-for-talking-to-kids-about-race-and-racism/

We are using books (went to the library and looked in their MLK Jr display), highlights magazine, and online videos to jump start conversations.

Because of course. The deal with Deripaska to lift sanctions is much less punitive than was previously shared.

I don't know, yelling at players inbounding a ball is pretty standard at bball games for high school/college super fans.
But doing full black body paint is super cringe-inducing and offensive, even if it is a blackout game.

I can’t remember if we had already heard the part about Trump walking away to watch tv while Ryan was there to discuss the healthcare (or tax cut?) bill and Pence has to go bring him back. If that doesn’t drive home that 45 doesn’t give a shit about anything but himself, I don’t know what will.

I don't sports ball but if my kid was trying to wear black face paint in any capacity we would be having words

One last thought on the cov teens.
If those same boys were standing around a planned parenthood clinic they’d be just as nasty and disrespectful as the original perpetrators.
The nonapology and the media oh there’s more to the story is such bullshit. Why didn’t the chaperones move the group? They called MORE students over.
Such bullshit
