Protesters will gather in Washington, D.C., and 135 other cities on Saturday to call for an independent commission to investigate possible collusion between President Trump's campaign and Russia to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. 

The "March for Truth" is the latest in a series of weekend protests opposing the Trump administration that has included the Women's March in January and the Tax March and March for Science in April. 

Organizers of the latest demonstration are also demanding that Trump release his personal income tax returns. 

The march in Washington will include remarks by several Democratic lawmakers, including Rep. Al Green (D-Texas), who has called in recent weeks to impeach Trump. Jill Wine-Banks, a former Watergate special prosecutor, and Javier Muñoz, a star of the Broadway musical "Hamilton," are also expected to speak at the D.C. rally.

And people said that Donald Trump could never bring people together.

Just look how many people he has inspired to get involved and work together in solidarity to solve a terrible problem that affects the whole country.

The true sign of a real leader.

This is how some members of the St. Louis Rams took the field today.

"Hands up, don't shoot."

 Five St. Louis Rams players took the field for Sunday's home game against the Oakland Raiders with a "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" pose that has been used by protestors in Ferguson, Missouri, and across the country recently. 

 The five players who were shown doing the gesture on CBS were Stedman Bailey, Tavon Austin, Jared Cook, Chris Givens and Kenny Britt.

The Grand Jury might have handed in its decision, but it seems this issue is far from over.

The Alaska Native method for dealing with drug dealers. Denied!

A man described by residents and police in an Aleutian Islands town as a known drug dealer was turned around at the local airport and run out of town by parents when he arrived from Anchorage Tuesday. 

Locals in the East Aleutians Borough community of Sand Point say the incident occurred at about 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, when a nightly PenAir flight arrived in town from Anchorage with the man on board. 

In a caption for a Facebook photo of the confrontation posted by resident Carmen Dushkin, she said the incident personifies opposition by locals to a continuing flow of drugs into their communities. 

"Sand Point takes a stand to remove known drug dealers," Dushkin wrote. "Team Sand Point will not let you come into our town and corrupt the youth of tomorrow." 

The Sand Point incident follows a tradition dating back to Alaska Native tribes of banishing offenders who disturb the peace as a form of punishment, one adopted by Gold Rush-era residents as a "blue ticket" out of town by the first available means of transportation. In a more recent example of an Alaska community expelling a person suspected of but not charged with a crime, tribal officials banned a suspected bootlegger from the village of Akiak in April. 

According to Sand Point Police Department officer Michael Livingston, who witnessed the exchange, police couldn't confirm locals' identification of the man as he was not charged with a crime. The man does have a history in the 1,000-person community, which has seen problems with illegal drugs like cocaine, heroin and meth, as well as abuse of prescription drugs. 

"Typically, what happens is a drug dealer flies into Sand Point with, say, 1,000 Percocet (oxycodone pain pills) and he has a runner sell them for 150 bucks apiece," Livingston said. "And within a couple weeks, he's leaving town with about $150,000 cash."

I have actually seen this happen before. The native community will rise up as one and eject a trouble maker or dangerous individual and they will be denied access to their community.

It will sometimes confound law enforcement because rather than turn the person over to the authorities the locals will simply ban him or her. Essentially because they don't trust white man's justice.

Of course in the olden days sometimes trouble makers would be taken out on one way hunting trips. After all, accidents do happen you know.

Don't worry too much about this fellow however, he will always be welcome in Wasilla.

For the women who don't consider themselves feminists.

A a man, raised by a single mother, and single parent to a headstrong young woman, I found this incredibly moving.

LeBron James tweets picture of solidarity for Trayvon Martin.

This picture was posted on Lebron James's Twitter account.

This from the Huffington Post:

The tweet from the NBA superstar comes days after the Million Hoodie March, during which protesters wore hoodies to show solidarity with Martin's family. Pictures of people in hoodies in solidarity have been flooding social networking sites

Of course while these acts of solidarity with Trayvon Martin are sweeping the nation, you can always trust the Conservatives to take the adversarial point of view.

In this case it comes from that Hispanic Uncle Tom, Geraldo Rivera:

I am urging the parents of black and Latino youngsters, particularly, to not let their young children go out wearing hoodies. I think the hoodie is as much responsible for Trayvon Martin’s death as George Zimmerman was.

Yep in Geraldo's world the fault lies in the choice of clothing, NOT with easy access to the handgun used to kill this young man, or the racism that seemed to inspire George Zimmerman to follow him and murder him in cold blood.

Sometimes I think they should have closed up Al Capones' vault with Geraldo Rivera still in it!
