That's a great and thorough exploration of some of what underlies the arguments about the financial subpoenas.

I'd wondered about "undermining" as a term in this application. It might have some political cachet, but I couldn't see its having any constitutional heft!

”Growing up Black, in this country, I saw myself as having one of two choices recognizing the reality that growing up in the hood while navigating White America meant death was always one haunting step from catching me: I could stare death in the face and live each day with the knowledge that tomorrow was not promised or I could try to assimilate, mitigate as many of the obvious paths towards danger that I could find. Make myself one of the safe ones and plan for longevity.
I found myself in-between.
I never expected tomorrow to come and yet I worked to create a greater world where it could. I dedicated myself to a career actively fighting against the constant dehumanizing depiction of my people. I tried to reclaim my humanity, to project to the world, “I am Black. I am enough. I am still here!”

"Sure," said Kemp's office, "it's deceptive in a way that benefits us, but we had no power over that!"

(The item above is not a quote, Ward, it's a paraphrase of what their words meant.)

I guess #BlueLivesMatter only when they’re  telling black folks what do then kill them when they “don’t comply!”

When did #AllLivesMatter  become “Let’s sacrifice Grandma so I can get my roots done?”
