The not-knowing is crucial to art, is what permits art to be made. Without the scanning process engendered by not-knowing, without the possibility of having the mind move in unanticipated directions, there would be no invention. ~Donald Barthelme

Republicans want a Nazi Police State. Democrats want police to be part of a fair criminal justice system and that is the opposite of fascism. And Don Knotts was hilarious ...

Minnesotans sang outside the hotels where ICE and Border Patrol agents are staying, telling them it’s not too late to change careers:

“It’s okay to change your mind.
Show us your courage.
Leave this behind.
And you can join us, join us anytime."

Reminder: Trump is also working to end the Voting Rights ACT and the Civil Rights Act. His white supremacy goes way beyond sharing racist images.
There you go: Trump says about posting the grotesquely racist video of the Obamas as apes: “No, I didn’t make a mistake.” MAGA is a white supremacist movement.
