New #SistersInLaw is here. It’s challenging to celebrate July 4 with a tyrant in the White House, but the promise of America can inspire us to take back our democracy. As the Declaration of Independence says, “a Tyrant is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.” podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

"I love the Fourth of July. I love America. And I don't think that we allow anyone else to appropriate our holiday. It belongs to all of us. And I think we're a country right now that is in trauma and our country needs us more than ever before. So if you love America, show it by celebrating and by working toward a more perfect union. And we all have a lot of work to do, whether it's throwing a party or encouraging people to vote or having those difficult conversations with friends and family about just how much trauma our country is going through right now. But what makes America great is our ability to change. And so, onward to a more perfect union. And please keep Snickers in your prayers, y'all. She's not gonna be easy for her."
