Responds to grand jury decision:
“It has been more than six months since Breonna Taylor was shot multiple times and killed in her own home.
It took sustained protests across the nation, along with relentless advocacy from her family,
to begin the process to hold her killers accountable. And yet today,
not one of the three officers involved has been charged for the killing of Ms. Taylor.
Only one officer was charged with shooting into a nearby apartment.
What this means is that no one will face accountability for taking the life of a promising young Black woman –
an EMT worker who, after working multiple shifts, was sleeping in her bed.
This is a devastating blow for the Taylor family, for the Louisville community, and for the Black community
that has been working for justice for Ms. Taylor across the nation.
Today’s announcement reaffirms that we need a drastic transformation in the regime of impunity that protects police officers who kill innocent Black people, and in how we define and support public safety infrastructures in
our country….”

Thanks for this Dudette…now have the wonderful Julián Castro’s pod. As a small one I imagined and dreamed of feeding street children before ever seeing one. Feeding people in a pandemic….the Texas story alone is unimaginable…on here i commit to you to work on this, thank you.

The “push to restore voting rights in Florida: “We’re going to literally pay off some of these fees and fines and free the vote for thousands more people. We believe this is a moral imperative to include as many people as possible in our democracy.”
About Breonna:
“As concerned as her family was about her putting herself at risk as an EMT during a pandemic, they never ever expected that her life would be taken in her own home by the local police…
Not only were these officers at the wrong home, in the wrong apartment complex, and in the wrong neighborhood, the man they were looking for had already been arrested by their department early that day.”

Stand With Bre:
“We must continue fighting through legal channels for justice for Breonna’s family and accountability for the officers involved. But in this moment, we must also do everything in our power to fight for deep, systemic change that prevents more murders like Breonna Taylor’s. That’s why we’re launching a full-force, nationwide demand that every state pass Breonna’s Law to ban no-knock warrants. Add your name right now to call on every state to stop more murders like Breonna Taylor’s, immediately.”

Every day seems to get exponentially worse. TOD is a sanctuary, but but have to engage with this godforsaken country to save it.
have to say i was surprised at Romney.
Doom’s strategies to suppress the vote:
“This raises an obvious question: why are Trump and his allies telegraphing their strategy so clearly?
This isn’t a James Bond movie; in the real world, villainous megalomaniacs don’t reveal the details of their nefarious plots in advance. The answer is simple: voter suppression.”

I really like the idea of drive-in rallies. Very Americana…a good reminder for the other side that they are in America, in case they have an identity crisis and think they are living in a different country.
I read this elsewhere but was not sure if it is true.
Gotta say I fell for the all choked up emotional act of his during the press conference , before I found out that he is a GOPee.
