Happy 75th Dad!
Today I'm remembering your weirdness and your extraordinary capacity to love.
And for the folks out there who'd like to celebrate with me, go do something kind for someone. Make someone laugh. Put a little more good into the world.
Love you forever.
Somewhere in this world, someone still remembers a small act of kindness you showed them, even though you’ve long since forgotten it.
Scatter your days with small acts of kindness.
Fill your life with decency.
Lead with love.
To you, it may have been just a ride.
To him, it was dignity.
It was compassion.
It went a long way.
This is going to be amazing evidence for all the innocent people the Trump administration is trying to prosecute. It’s going to be fabulous evidence in their future defamation suits. 😂

Texas Attorney General, and now Republican nominee for the Texas Senate Ken Paxton gave his friend 28 days in jail after he repeatedly raped a young boy.
He does not have to register as a sex offender.
He didn’t even lose his license to practice law.
As America reflects on 250 years, truth must be part of the commemoration.
For Black Americans, America as a democracy is only 61 years old. That truth is not a rejection of this nation. It is a call for America to become what it has promised.
May we choose truth, justice, and the Beloved Community.

🚨BREAKING: In the Chicago suburbs, an ICE agent assaults a teenager for filming his vehicle, and pointing out that it illegally has no license plate.
In the video, a U.S. citizen is peacefully filming an ICE vehicle, that is sitting in a parking lot. He walks to the back of the SUV to document that it has no license plate.
That’s when the ICE agent jumps out, screaming, “Get away from my vehicle!” while aggressively charging toward the teenager.
The teenager immediately backs away, but the ICE agent keeps walking at him, tries to trip the teenager , and continues yelling… even though neither of them are anywhere near the vehicle anymore.
Filming government officials performing their duties, in public, is protected by the First Amendment. That protection doesn’t disappear just because the official doesn’t like being recorded.
An officer also can’t lawfully use physical force simply because someone is filming them. Using force, to stop someone from recording, is a violation of that person’s constitutional rights.
And let’s not ignore the reason the ICE agent got out of his car in the first place...
Illinois law requires vehicles, driven on public roads, to display valid registration plates. This ICE vehicle is not following that law.
So, if your first instinct, when someone records your conduct, is to assault them… you’re proving exactly why the public is recording in the first place.
WWII Veteran and Purple Heart recipient Robert Hilliard:
"Next week I'll be 101 years old. In February 1944 when I was 18 years old I was inducted into the army and what they taught me to do there was to kill people who set up detention camps. Can you imagine how I felt earlier this year when they announced that one of the future detention camps would be at that same camp landing in Florida? We have a fascist, a fascist government, that allows innocent people to be put in detention camps and incarcerated."
