Trump is poised to accept the GOP nomination on the 60th anniversary of "Ax Handle Saturday," one of the darkest days in Jacksonville’s history. This is causing friction in the city of 900,000, which is 30% black, per @jameshohmann: https://t.co/RroLVpWF54

“Under the current schedule, Trump would accept his nomination on Aug. 27. In Jacksonville, that is the 60th anniversary of Ax Handle Saturday, when a mob of 200 white people chased peaceful civil rights protesters with ax handles and baseball bats” https://t.co/4TCCgqV8pf

President Trump hit with strong backlash over his decision to hold a campaign rally next week on Juneteenth, a holiday marking the end of slavery, in Tulsa, the site of a horrific race massacre against black people in 1921. https://t.co/nDvO1kA36i

Trump flew to Dallas today, allegedly for a roundtable on race and policing. But Trump did not invite the Dallas police chief, the Dallas county sheriff or the Dallas district attorney, all of whom are black.

I see many conservatives are feeling upset and angry about some statues.

In moments like this, I like to share the inspirational words of President Donald J. Trump:

Fuck your feelings.

Gen Mark Milley is a superb senior military leader. Extremely intelligent and transparent. Incredible combat leader. He will respect the Constitution. Very proud he made this statement. He got sandbagged on this one. The problem is Trump NOT Milley. https://t.co/ioJObdld5X

The MAGAts are dying to see Trump. But when they die, they can't blame and/or sue him. https://t.co/m8wCI6klY9

Rural people make up most of his supporters.  Unless they are from Grove or Guymon, they likely will not bring #COVID19 here, but while packed in a crowd here, they are likely to carry COVID back to their communities with small hospitals, few physicians. Very sad. https://t.co/oB5vVKKypy

NEW: The GOP platform Trump & Republicans will use in 2020 40+ references attacking "the current" president.

“The survival of the internet as we know it is at risk," it reads. "Its gravest peril originates in the White House."

Strictly, all of Dad’s Army takes place in a flashback…from Mainwaring’s speech at Walmington-on-Sea’s ‘I’m Backing Britain’ event in 1968.

I remember when we *all* backed Britain, he tells the hall, his beady eye apparently alert for signs of a Daniel Cohn-Bendit-led revolt. https://t.co/BFrh7tXtFV
