Ya'at'eeh my relatives. Today is Leap Day 2024 and I invite you to join me for My Second Cup of Coffee. Today I discuss the need for a Leap Year, the plight of Flaco the Owl and Mr. Trump's ignorant and repulsive comparison of his legal challenges with the legal challenges faced by Black people. I invite you to join me.
