@BradKutner@thedrmikejones @SalimVASenate FYI the VA bills likely wouldn't run afoul of the judge's opinion here since they regulate all law enforcement on masking as opposed to the CA legislation that specifically regulates federal law enforcement on masking.
@BreRVA@itsmarkmoran@bighouserich@lexjohnstone (4) TJ could have freed Sally at any time during his life & he didn't (5) The whole "standards of the time" thing is bullshit. TJ was criticized at the time for his views, e.g., Benjamin Banneker (a free Black Man), wrote letters to TJ critical of his views on slavery & race.
@BreRVA@itsmarkmoran@bighouserich@lexjohnstone (3) Sally's brother was not freed in Paris.
