“My mom used to have a saying. 'Joey as long as you’re alive, you have an obligation to strive and you're not dead until you see the face of God.' Whatever my legacy may be I hope it be said that I never stopped striving for the cause of democracy."- President Joe Biden

I asked Doc Rivers about why he’s been so willing to speak out on social issues, knowing that there are consequences: “I just think when things are morally wrong, it shouldn't be me; it should be everybody in this room. It should be everybody if you feel strongly about it. What we see on the streets right now, you cannot morally feel good about that. No American can, and that's why I speak out. And I do tell our guys there are consequences. You know, there was an Arthur Ashe, there was a Muhammad Ali, there was a Howard Cosell. They all spoke out, and some paid consequences for it. That's just part it.”

Governor: When they surge into Mass and commit atrocities on our streets— and seek to cover it up — will you and our other constitutional officers have a team in place to ID, detain, arrest and charge, and prosecute the offending agents? It's essential that we do.
Governor Maura Healey@MassGovernor

Just stop. Enough is enough. President Trump and Kristi Noem need to call ICE agents back. We stand with the people of Minnesota. President Trump needs to listen to Governor Walz and end this operation now.

At the end of the day, the top 1% may have enormous wealth and power, but they are just 1%. When the 99% stand together, we can transform our country. LIVE with @AOC from Greeley, Colorado: twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…
