Juneteenth is, let's see, I guess it'll be tomorrow, right, guys?

Is it June 19th that is technically Juneteenth?

And of course, I'm so confused.

Am I supposed to celebrate this?

Am I not supposed to celebrate this? Is this good? Is this bad? Is it? Oh, there's so much

controversy about it. It's June 19th. And specifically, it's recognizing when Gordon Granger,

Union officer, he shows up to Galveston, Texas, alerts the slaves that have

still been held in Texas, because this was one of the last strongholds of the Confederacy,

that Lincoln, he's like, hey, like nearly two years ago, right, Lincoln did this thing,

you're all free. Actually, it was like two and a half years ago, I guess, at that point,

told him you're free, but part of the reason that this does matter, Rick, maybe to your question, should we celebrate

or not celebrated, this was a Texas holiday for a long time, celebrating the end of a Democrat

policy position, slavery, when it was overthrown by a Republican policy position and a Republican president,

Abraham Lincoln, and it was a Texas holiday for a hundred whatever years before finally the

federal government said, you know what, we're going to make this. Was it, guys, was it Joe Biden

that did the, I feel like it was Joe Biden that said Juneeteen is now a federal holiday because I think we talked about that.

It's been a couple years.
