A Juneteenth Snub? Trump Questions Federal Holidays
from AURN News · host Ebony McMorris, Clay Cane, Jamie Jackson
On June 19, the day the nation observes Juneteenth, President Donald Trump posted on social media decrying the "too many non-working holidays in America." Though he didn't mention it by name, the timing of the post was seen by many as a direct criticism of the holiday commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. This comes after the White House offered no formal observance of the day, a sharp contrast to celebrations held under the previous administration.
