night. good ■çevening once again. i m stephanie ruhle and we are now, get ready for it, 139 days away from the election. today marks 159 years since the last black slaves were given their freedom in galveston, texas, a day recognized as juneteenth. today millions of americans coast to coast celebrated with parades, concerts, and speeches and this is the fourth year juneteenth has been designated a federal holiday. president biden signed it into law in 2021 and today his campaign is out with a very powerful new ad. this juneteenth we salute those who built this country, those who sacrificed, those who suffered and refused to be defined by pain or silenced by oppression. we celebrate freedom, ■çfreedom to live, breath, play, choose, marry, vote and with joe biden and kamala harris, we re ready to face the future together. we can t stop now. what did donald trump do to celebrate this day that is so important to so many americans? the man himself, he didn t do anythin
