A judge unseals emails sent by Donald Trump’s son Trump Jr. in which he launches racist attacks against Mexicans and Black New Yorkers.
In an email to one one of his best friends, Trump Jr. wrote that his friend should “Encourage the Mexicans to come to the US and give them another excuse to not learn English. When I have to speak to my grandchildren in Spanish, at least I know I will have you to thank.”
Trump Jr.‘s friend responded, saying that he was going to send his son down to the border with guns in order to “stop this wetback issue dead in its tracks.”
In another email exchange, Trump Jr. attacked Black New Yorkers, declaring that upper Manhattan had so many Black residents now that it “looks like Harlem,” and that he “can hear the theme song of the Jeffersons playing in the background.”
The friend was a groomsman at Trump Jr.’s wedding to his former wife — and the lawsuit involves him and his former employer.
The friend is trying to keep more emails from being unsealed by the judge, telling the judge that they will cause Trump Jr. “reputational harm.”

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
