I must admit I felt a certain satisfaction viewing the #mugshot of #DonaldTrump. But mugshots catch both guilty & innocent at their lowest moment. Frequently published, they live forever on the Internet, & defeat any assumption of “innocent until proven.”

How long do you continue #reading a #book before you decide you aren’t that interested? Do you agree with @tordotcom #author Molly Templeton’s point about reading “generously”?

Happy #LaborDay! Remember the lessons of #history and support your local unions’ efforts to push back on unrestricted #capitalism. Without the Labor Movement the #USA would be a much different country. @unions4workers.
