"Earlier today on #MorningJoe I shared my thoughts following a report from Britt Miller on new national park fees and the troubling decision to remove free entry on Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth. Singling out MLK Day and Juneteenth is not coincidence it sends a message. Our national parks represent Americas natural beauty but our history matters as well. Visitors should be able to celebrate all of who we are including the hard road from slavery to segregation to the White House. You cannot honor this country while erasing its struggle. Democracy requires honesty inclusion and moral"

"Demanding entry into exclusive spaces and then complaining that they won't allow you to engage in the type of behavior the space is designed to keep out is exactly why there are many $60M homes in Beverly Hills and zero on MLK Blvd. I live in LA and everybody knows that Beverly Hills is on this type of time. JB rented a spot worth between $60M-$70M trust me when I tell you they selectively enforce all the time. I live in LA and everybody knows that Beverly Hills is on this type of time.
