Howard Zinn: Whom Will We Honor Memorial Day?

Thank you to the exceptional performers of the Kansas City Symphony for honoring the sacrifice and service of the women and men of our Armed Forces at the 23rd annual Celebration at the Station.

Things we've missed: Lo cellys 💃

Presidential emoluments, presidential emoluments, unconstitutional presidential emoluments.

God I would have hammered him so hard for giving an opinion in an area he has no training in while testifying as an expert witness in another field. Maybe the Daubert hearing did happen, but I have doubts.

Trump did not reach a settlement with the government. There was no case to settle. He has not created a slush fund. He has colluded with Todd Blanche to steal money from the US Treasury. This is not a “deal.” This is a crime for which Trump & Blanche must be prosecuted. It ia a crime.

Recreation.gov was supposed to make access to public lands more equitable and streamlined. Instead, it’s rife with bots and inequality, while a government contractor benefits. www.wired.com/story/the-us...

Most of what people want can be accomplished at the state level, if only people would consistently turn out to vote in every election. And not just November! April, August, etc.

The thing is, the elections that get the poorest turnouts, and have the most impact upon people's lives, are the ones where the electoral college isn't the least bit involved.

big endorsement for AOC last night

👇🎯 Five years later, we’re still waiting for the very first “enthusiastic Black Biden voters in North Philly diners” piece

New in PN: The assault on higher ed goes deeper than you think "This is bigger than budget cuts. It’s not just a continuation of things like longtime GOP efforts to cut Pell Grants. It’s a wide-ranging assault designed to drastically limit access to higher ed for all but the rich & well-connected."

Discourse about finding "the Rogan of the Left" or "the liberal answer to Fox News" rarely accounts for the reality that the entire conservative media universe is the enormously unprofitable vanity project of a few rich sociopaths. It "succeeds" because they don't care how much it costs.

ITS TEMWA’S WORLD & WE ARE LIVING IN IT 🤩

its true that i dont understand how the supreme court operates. for example do you get the free RV and house for your mom before or after issuing favorable rulings? is it a *wink wink* deal or more explicit? these are the things the general public doesnt understand

The ballroom, the arch… I have a PhD in Egyptology and I know a mortuary temple complex when I see one.

or cages? or rages? mostly wages...

Where is Renee Good's killer, Jonathan Ross? Where are Alex Pretti's killers, Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez? Who killed Ruben Ray Martinez? Who killed Silverio Villegas González?

Just completely disconnected from reality. There was nothing in the trump campaign that signaled he "learned his lesson" or would surround himself with competent people. Add in project 2025, and I don't see how anyone didn't see this coming.

Have you ever noticed that the massive, coordinated, multi-year assault on trans rights is based on NOTHING WHATSOEVER

He *is* known for starting battles without a clear strategy, after all.

They think you're stupid.

Happy Tax Day, New York. We’re taxing the rich.

dems are not perfect but they got this guy out in the span of a weekend, while the republicans made Hegseth the secretary of defense

It's funny how during a normal presidency people blame the president for all sorts of things that he's not really in charge of but in this personalist government the president really is the source of everything going wrong.

Dismantle DHS. Abolish and prosecute ICE. Citizenship and amnesty for all immigrants who have not committed a violent crime. That’s the bare minimum and we can’t accept anything less.

Think of how many videos you’ve seen of ICE using unlawful force. Think of how many of them are against unarmed women half their size, how many take place at daycares and schools, how many are against women trying to find justice for themselves or their families. It’s a feature, not a bug.

Bunch of dawgs on our team 😤

IT'S. TEMWA. TIME. ⏰ TC6 is the FIRST player in club history with 10+ goals & 10+ assists in the regular season 🔥

Brutal.

I’ve been thinking about this guy almost daily for ten fucking years. essentially my entire 30’s. when he finally croaks I imagine I’ll let out a sigh so deep it realigns my fucking spine

Crappy iPhone pictures drove me to a Google Pixel 10 and I'm never going back. See if you can tell which photo came from which phone.

try and imagine a bigger W as an academic

After Claudia Goldin became the first woman to win a solo Nobel in economics, she got hundreds of invitations. She accepted three. One was advising WNBA players on a labor deal. She helped players land the biggest % raise in US sports history. www.wsj.com/economy/wnba...

My little summary of a historic day of protest. Congratulations to every organizer in every town and city across America - and globally. And well done to every drone operator and photojournalist that captured this extraordinary footage. #NoKings @50501movement.bsky.social

If only there had been some clues that it would turn out this way.

"In other words, the perceived worth of higher education has waned just as women have begun to outnumber men within it. Is it really a coincidence?"

A bill passed the Senate last night 100-0 to fund TSA, the Coast Guard and FEMA. If Speaker Johnson called it for a vote it would pass easily. But he won’t do that. Because Trump has ordered him to keep TSA shut down and keep the chaos. Pure incompetence.

I hope recent events don’t ruin Tiger Woods chances of receiving the FIFA Best Driver award.

That's Tash Cloud from the NY Liberty. We love her.

I'm telling you, the first time some blonde white woman whose also a major sports star gets disqualified for being intersex, all hell is going to break loose.

Trump's face is drooping and his eyes are closed

Trump reacting to the stock market again.
