For 111 years, a statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee has represented Virginia in the U.S. Capitol. Today, a statue of teenaged civil rights activist Barbara Rose Johns took his place -- a pointed replacement for the general who fought to preserve slavery.

Barbara Rose Johns was only 16 when she led a walkout in 1951 to protest horrendous conditions at her segregated high school in Virginia. Now her statue will replace Robert E. Lee’s at the U.S. Capitol. https://wapo.st/3N4yDpy

Barbara Rose Johns was 16 when she led a walkout at her high school, credited with helping end school segregation. Her statue replaces Robert E. Lee's, which was removed in 2020. n.pr/4iWEBF0

This is incredible news. Today, Virginia officials will unveil a statue of Barbara Johns at the Capitol to replace one of Confederate General Robert E. Lee that had stood for more than a century. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Rep. Jasmine Crockett has released receipts that reveal that ProPublica has reported that Kristi Noem secretly diverted hundreds of millions of dollars in Department of Homeland Security funds to a consulting firm affiliated with her own campaign.

Kelly: "My family has suffered from political violence. My wife, Gabby, was nearly assassinated, shot in the head at a political event. Even the president -- 2 assassination attempts -- he should understand his words have significant weight and people react to things that he says."

Today, the president of the United States said that multiple US senators should be put to death for treason and articles of impeachment have not been filed yet. This country is cooked. Done. Finished.

The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution. In these moments, fear is contagious, but so is courage:

Welker to Sen. John Barrasso on healthcare: "What I hear you saying is there's no plan, there's no bill." (Note that he doesn't try to refute her claim!)

Trump killed him, a firefighter and shot a couple others. Nobody talks about Trump's victims.

www.politico.com/f/?id=000001... . This is so disgusting. Why is this man still walking freely, let alone occupying our White House 🤬

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump. The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

I’m so sick of the Dems talking and acting like weaklings. We need FIRE! Enough of the meek niceness, take the gloves OFF.

Mike Johnson on the Republican healthcare plan: "We've got notebooks full of ideas."

His "concept" of a Healthcare Plan is finally revealed. It involves eliminating the Insurance Industry & people purchasing their OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE. Unrelated, note his obsessive envy of Obama, historically rated 1 of our finest presidents, who he still believes was born in Kenya. #sad 🤣

Dudes who get free healthcare vote yes on letting you die!

Is that before or after we get his healthcare plan?

This is BRUTAL. Trump LOUDLY BOOED at the Commanders game. America lets him know exactly how they feel — to his face.

#GVerse Um. WTF??? Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy: "Pilots need to stop depending on air traffic controllers. They need to suck it up and go with their gut feelings." This is the stupidest and most dangerous administration in history.

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

idk who needs to hear this but the President of the United States of America is APPEALING a judges order forcing him to fully fund SNAP. Yes — DJT is appealing a ruling telling him to NOT starve his own people. Let that simmer.

Here’s a disturbing video from Evanston of a federal agent hitting a man on the ground as people yell that he can’t breathe.

15 million Americans are going to lose their health care.

This was just posted by a CBS News producer on their Instagram stories.

One example of the price increases on the horizon. People are literally about to be priced out in the same way landlords price people out of apartments. It won’t stop here either How many of us have already put off going to the doctor/dentist, simply because we can’t afford it? This is unacceptable

Just watched Bugonia. Another wonderful treat of a film with the great Jesse Plemons, Emma Stone and the rest of a topnotch cast, written by Will Tracy and directed Yorgos Lanthimos. @sitgesfilmfestival.bsky.social

I live in Minnesota. This is OBSCENE. Just despicable, the lowest and most vile lie. Abusing the assassination of our Speaker Emerita, her husband and her dog. Utterly beneath contempt.

"In a normal political moment, Dems would be right to focus on policies that make people’s lives better. But this isn’t an ordinary moment. For the love of God, it was days ago that Trump put every officer in the armed forces in a room & told them he plans to use soldiers against American citizens."

Trump’s former “spiritual advisor.”

We can afford this but somehow don’t have enough money for health care
