I don’t think people should engage in violence and vandalism and I don’t think federal agents should provoke people to engage in violence and vandalism. Too many law enforcement officers sworn to protect and serve now look and act like they are in Fallujah.

Today marks D-Day—June 6, 1944—when one of history’s most heroic efforts began. Thousands stormed the beaches of Normandy to fight tyranny and defend freedom. A powerful reminder of the courage that shaped the world we live in. We remember.

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.
