“The upcoming No Kings has set off klaxons for Republican lawmakers…Some in party leadership are going further by branding it a pro-terrorism demonstration—an unambiguously false allegation meant to get ahead of a potentially massive protest against the president.”

Stevens: There’s $1.3 trillion of credit card debt. There are people putting grocery bills on credit cards and then paying interest on them. We are in an affordability crisis. Coffee is up 20%, beef is up 16%, bacon is up over 10%. And now we’re going to see health care costs skyrocket.

Let’s make a deal with the most corrupt president in U.S. history— Donald Trump.

🔥 HOT MIC: Indonesia’s president straight up asks if he can meet with Eric and Don Jr. You can’t make this up.

Maybe the family needs a minute to organize? Move to a different location? There could be several things to consider. I understand the impatience. When released his family will have no peace.

Hamas leadership just announced they killed 27 people in broad daylight because—wait, my mistake.

Trump announces he's drone killed 27 Venezuelans on boats, claiming without evidence that they were "narcoterrorists," & refusing to answer what gives him authority.

He WILL deploy this on US citizens

This week’s high school writing club focused on perspectives: both technical writing perspectives and how much difference a person’s cultural and situational grounding makes in how and what they perceive. The power and limitations of that grounding impact us—and those around us.

Me, wearing a black t-shirt with skeletons dancing while holding books. The writing on the shirt reads, “Read banned books. Gain forbidden knowledge.” Read the book; eat the fruit. Push back against the idea that we should read or know less.

I can’t wait to find out if the deal Trump gave to the Hamas leaders was as good as the one he gave to the Taliban.
