About this episode

Civil Rights icon Rep. John Lewis passed away on Friday at 80 years old. Trump’s interview with Chris Wallace was a mess, featuring Trump pretending that Covid-19 is a case of the “sniffles,” claiming that masks “cause problems too,” and insisting that the cognitive test he passed was “very hard.” Portland protesters are being attacked and kidnapped by unmarked federal officers --and Trump wants to deploy these forces in other major U.S. cities too. Federal Judge Esther Salas was attacked last night in a deadly shooting at her home that resulted in her son being murdered and her husband being critically wounded. Trump is still sad so his aides are trying to cheer him up in the best way they know how… Trucks! Big, heavy, trucks! John Jackson LIVE on the Schott Foundation’s Loving Cities index and how we can dismantle systemic racism and build loving, caring systems.
