Of course Donald Trump hates Juneteenth.

In 2021, Joe Biden signed the bill making Juneteenth a federal holiday:

US President Joe Biden signed The Juneteenth National Independence Day Act in the White House on Thursday 17 June to formally recognise Juneteenth as a national holiday.

Mr Biden said: “Great nations don’t ignore their most painful moments. We come to terms with the mistakes we made. And remembering those moments, we begin to heal and grow stronger.”

This story is maddening. Bessemer city officials are signing NDAs about a proposed hyperscale data center that will require destroying 100 acres of forest, use 90x as much energy as all homes of the city, & threaten a newly discovered species with extinction.

Many politicians are fools. Mayor Ed Gainey is no fool.

I’m genuinely impressed. He said that he would reduce traffic deaths and injuries. And he actually delivered. Props to the guy and his team 👏.

My city has a lot of accidents. Our mayor doesn’t care : /
