Juneteenth: A day of joy and pain - and now protest across the US
In any other year, Juneteenth, the holiday celebrating the day in 1865 that allenslaved black people [slaves] learned they had been freed from bondage, would be marked by African American families across the nation with a parade or a community festival.
[That's a lie. Outside of texas, virtually no blacks ever celebrated Juneteenth.]
But today, Juneteenth 2020 will be a day ofprotest [riots] in many places. From coast to coast, celebrations will include marches and demonstrations of civil disobedience.

Supreme Court rejects Trump bid asyoung [illegal] immigrants gain landmark win but still face uncertainty
The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld legal protections for young [illegal] immigrants, but its ruling doesn't provide a guarantee that they'll get to keep them long term.
President Trump could still try to dismantle the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA), which allows hundreds of thousands of [illegal] immigrants to live and work legally in the United States and shields them from deportation.
A divided Congress is unlikely to pass legislation providing a path to citizenship anytime soon. But advocates have vowed to keep fighting for legislation for a long-term solution for these [illegal] immigrants who were brought to the country as children, reports Astrid Galvan.
AP Explains: They [?!] key background you need to know and what happens next?
Who they are-Vignettes: About 650,000 people have DACA protections. Here are the stories of six of them from around the country.
Court Independence: In two major decisions this week on LGBT rights and [illegal] immigration, the conservative-leaning [sic] Supreme Court handed President Trump somewhat surprising defeats. "Do you get the impression that the Supreme Court doesn't like me?" Trump tweeted shortly after the court ruled Thursday.
[The damned fool permitted the SC to rule on an executive matter, about which it has no jurisdiction. As for the notion that the court is "conservative-leaning," if it were, it would have voided "Obamacare," and ruled for Trump in the instant cases. A 5-4 liberal majority means it's not liberal-leaning.]
For Chief Justice John Roberts, who sided with the court's liberals in ruling against Trump in both cases, the outcomes and the conservative outcry that accompanied them may help insulate the court from accusations that the highest court is reflexively friendly to partisan Republican and ideologically conservative interests, report Jessica Gresko and Mark Sherman.

South's unification minister resigns as Korean tensions rise
South Korea's president has accepted the resignation of his point man on North Korea, who had asked to quit after the North destroyed a liaison office while ramping up pressure against Seoul amid stalled nuclear negotiations. Kim Yeon-chul had been appointed as unification minister last year as talks between Washington and Pyongyang began falling apart. He leaves the job without having a single meeting with the North Koreans.
Curtain falls on Camelot: Last Kennedy sibling's death ends era
With Jean Kennedy Smith's death, former President John F. Kennedy's inner circle is almost gone. Only Ethel Kennedy, the wife of Robert F. Kennedy, is still alive. The assassination of both brothers in the 1960s ended a political dynasty dubbed "Camelot" that many Americans look back at with nostalgia. Historians say the death of Kennedy Smith, the acclaimed former U.S. ambassador to Ireland, in some ways lowers the curtain.

And like the nationwide protests that followed the recent deaths of black men and women in Minnesota, Kentucky and Georgia at the hands of white police, Juneteenth celebrations are likely to be strikingly more multiracial this year, Aaron Morrison and Kat Stafford report.
One black Army veteran told AP he will be treating "Juneteenth with the same fanfare as the Fourth of July or Memorial Day" for the first time this year.
[In other words, he's not an American.]
AP Explains: Juneteenth commemorates when the lastenslaved African Americans [black slaves] learned they were free 155 years ago. 2020 may be the year it reaches a new decisive moment of epoch-making recognition.
Atlanta Police: Officers have called out sick to protest the filing of murder charges against a white officer who shot Rayshard Brooks in the back and kicked him as he lay mortally wounded on the ground. The interim chief told the AP in an interview that members of the force feel abandoned amid protests demanding massive changes to policing.
An interview with Brooks, conducted four months before he was killed, has emerged. Reconnect, a company that focuses on fighting incarceration and addiction, interviewed him about the year he spent in jail. Brooks said the criminal justice system treats the people incarcerated within it like "animals."
[So? He was an animal.]
Trump Poll: A new poll from The AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds that Americans are deeply unhappy about the state of their country. The survey also reveals that a majority think President Trump is exacerbating tensions in a moment of national crisis.
[Push poll! The MSM created the crisis! How could Trump have "exacerbating tensions"?]
Klobuchar-Biden: Amy Klobuchar is dropping out of vice presidential contention and urging Democrat Joe Biden to select a woman of color instead. The Minnesota senator said that she called the presumptive presidential nominee and made the suggestion. She says it would be a step Biden could take to help "heal this nation."
[How does submitting to black supremacism ever "heal" the nation? How does anything heal a nation? Well, there was reconciliation after the Civil War, but the racial socialists want the opposite.]
School Curriculum: A nationalconversation [monologue] on racial injustice is bringing new scrutiny to how African American history is taught in schools around the country. There is no national curriculum or set of standards for teaching black history in America. [Because that's the way our Constitution works.] Only a small number of states, including Arkansas, Florida, Illinois, Mississippi and New York, have laws requiring that black history be taught in public schools.
Confederate Monument: As midnight approached on the eve of Juneteenth, the obelisk glorifying the Lost Cause was laid on its side and slid to a waiting truck in Decatur, Georgia. The figure had been a flashpoint for protests [riots] in the city after the police killing of George Floyd, and was often vandalized and marked by graffiti [by terrorists]. It was removed by crane from the town square near Atlanta amid cheers from the watching crowd.
Hollywood: As protests [riots] erupted across the country, every major entertainment company in Hollywood issued statements of support for the black [supremacist] community. But as unanimous as that show of solidarity was, the movie industry has a past — and present — to reckon with. Hollywood's record in diversity and inclusion has improved in recent years, but it still lags behind the population.

The daily number of deaths from COVID-19 in America has been falling, but experts warn the trend may reverse as states reopen and people drop their guards.
An AP analysis finds that deaths have fallen from about 960 per day two weeks ago to about 680 now. Experts cite several factors, including lessons learned in the early days of the pandemic and the lasting impact of social distancing, report Carla K. Johnson and Nicky Forster.
However, deaths per day are starting to rise again in some states that opened early so this slight reprieve may be temporary.

However, deaths per day are starting to rise again in some states that opened early so this slight reprieve may be temporary.
- India has recorded 13,586 newly confirmed cases today, raising its total to 380,532. Still, shops, malls, factories and places of worship have been allowed to reopen while schools and cinemas remain shuttered.
- China declared a fresh outbreak in Beijing under control after finding 25 new cases as of today, up by just four from a day earlier.
- In South Korea, outbreaks in the Seoul area have prompted second-guessing on whether officials were too quick to ease social distancing guidelines in April after a first wave of infections waned.
More from the AP Global and U.S. teams:
- California Masks: The state is now requiring people to wear masks in most indoor settings and outdoors when distancing isn't possible under a new statewide order.
- Lives Lost: A South African activist and doctor who died of COVID-19 spent his life fighting apartheid, the government's denial of HIV/AIDS and rampant corruption. Loved ones say Clarence Mini knew the odds were against him but he was committed to what he believed was right. He died in May at age 69.
- Sailing Home: An Argentine man has finished an incredible three-month sailing odyssey from Portugal to Mar del Plata, Argentina, in a quest to be reunited with his parents after flights home were canceled because of lockdowns.
- Wooden Money: In the One Good Thing series — A small city in Washington state is taking an unusual approach to helping residents and businesses in need during the economic fallout. It's printing its own money. The wooden currency is modeled on a program the city used to help its people get through the Great Depression.

Generally speaking if you act as an animal it is not unreasonable to expect your treatment to be that of an animal.
