Judge Juan M. Merchan wrote that Trump “appears to take the position that his situation and this case are unique and that the pre-trial publicity will never subside. However, this view does not align with reality.”
I don't believe in any national holidays to honor a particular person, whether it's MLK, George Washington, or Christopher Columbus.
To me, it's tacky, and we don't all necessarily like the same historical figures anyway.
Let's instead increase paid days off for personal reasons and ditch the idolatry days.
Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775
Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose. Kris Kristofferson, 1969

didnt realize they did so no help there.
Why does the democrat party hate black culture enough to destroy it with the Great Society ?
Just as MLK was getting traction on the content of character thing happening LBJ sets his sights on destroying the hallmark and cornerstone of black culture, the family.

The USA has lost WWIV to China with no other weapons but China Virus and some cash to buy democrats.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was open and honest about his deep disapproval of white, revisionist history and willful ignorance.
Just read his words.
On the issue of race-and-culturally-conscious teachings, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., stood completely opposed to the type of racist, self-absorbed, and ahistorical beliefs today’s conservative movement holds about education.
Using the misnomer "Critical Race Theory," the conservative movement in recent years has deemed all kinds of lesson plans about social inequality dangerous to schoolchildren. As a result, a majority of Republicans nationwide said the lingering effects of racism should be taught “not so much” or “not at all,”
Dr. King’s legacy. But it’s important you remember what he actually stood for — and what he stood against. And he absolutely stood against white revisionism and willful ignorance in education.
In his 1967 book, “Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community?” King tees off on arrogant, willfully ignorant white people.
“Whites, it must frankly be said, are not putting in a similar mass effort to reeducate themselves out of their racial ignorance,” King wrote. “It is an aspect of their sense of superiority that the white people of America believe they have so little to learn.”

Here is part of a longer answer from Fredrick Douglass about what should be done for slaves if they are set free
"Our answer is, do nothing with them; mind your business, and let them mind theirs. Your doing with them is their greatest misfortune. They have been undone by your doings, and all they now ask, and really have need of at your hands, is just to let them alone. They suffer by ever interference, and succeed best by being let alone."
With "friends" like you leftists idiots who needs enemies.
