@JusticeGuzman This video made my day and the attorney’s response made my week! He was so gracious about the video going viral. A much needed moment of levity.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

If anyone had a right to question whether our democracy was worth redeeming, it was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Because in the face of billy clubs and lynchings, poll taxes and literacy tests, he never gave in to violence, never waved a traitorous flag or gave up on our country.

Early Voting ends 7 p.m. Friday. That's it. The end. Done. Your last opportunity to vote will be on Election Day, Nov. 3, but why wait? Make a plan to vote tomorrow. No lines. Do it. See you tomorrow.

Mike Pence failed to keep people safe during Indiana's HIV outbreak. He failed to keep people safe when his administration locked kids in cages and dog-whistled white supremacists. And he failed to keep people safe as head of the coronavirus task force.

MEN! Is having it all REALLY possible? Kids, wife, work outside the home, a Korean skincare routine, beach-ready ankles and pH balanced forearms?

We’ve seen this in South Africa before. Beware of agitators and instigators who use legitimate protests to ignite chaos between protestors and police.

Figuring out how to end systemic racism and it’s effects is complicated. Kumajl’s statement is not.

If Trump demands immigrants speak English we demand the same of the president.
