🧵 HARD TRUTHS DEEP DIVE — Systemic racism in the criminal justice system

Top military brass, including Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley, were appalled.

This was not the way to conduct policy — with no consultation, no input, no process for gaming out consequences or offering alternatives. axios.com/off-the-rails-…

.@mikeallen: Do you consider getting the vaccine to be a pro-life decision?

@Franklin_Graham: Of course. And I’m pro-life. I believe saving the life of the unborn as much as those that are born. And medicine is pro-life. #AxiosOnHBO
@mikeallen @Franklin_Graham Graham on Trump: “I think he did some great things in his presidency. I think the vaccine that we're talking about right now, I'm not sure we would have that if we'd had another president in there. Now, he made plenty of mistakes. We all do.” #AxiosOnHBO
