But nothing scares me more than the #presidentialimmunity case the Supreme Court is hearing right now.

On Saturday, I was in Lawnside, NJ, where a new historical marker was unveiled to commemorate some of the famous Black figures of the American Revolution. It’s part of a bigger project in Camden County ahead of America’s 250th bday. @KYWNewsradio
