    I have always respected General Mattis for his four decades of service to our country and his commitment to reigning in the ridiculous defense policies pushed by and his . He was one of the few adults allowed in Trump’s room. We wish him the best.

    You know the black vote is important when both US state/local govs & foreign govs try to suppress it. Last year, we met w/ & other tech companies about this issue. If they can't stop the weaponization of their platforms, then Congress will.
