Today we Celebrate Juneteenth, A Celebration of Freedom! In honor of Juneteenth, our offices will be closed on Monday, June 20, 2022. #Juneteenth

"The people of Texas are informed that, in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free." --- part of the text of General Order # 3, the order read by General Gordon Granger (shown here) in Galveston 157 years ago today, Juneteenth.

Happy Juneteenth! Celebrating freedom for all, for when slavery ended for African-Americans, it ended for all Americans. As long as African-Americans were enslaved, all Americans were captive to a system of bondage and oppression. No one is free, unless all are free!

We love and miss you! #HappyFatherDay #DaddyForever

NPR and most US media say only Fed Reserve interest rate hikes can end inflation. False. Nixon did it with a price-wage freeze. FDR prevented it by his early 1940s rationing. Media, gov't serve the 1% at the expense of the 99%.

Same woman. Same spot. 45 years later.
