A reminder that the Kennedy Center is the literal and legal and congressional designated presidential memorial to JFK. This would be like Trump tearing down the Lincoln Memorial to build something “better.”

The public library is an essential component of a 21st-century left political project as an example of both what is already available to us and what can be improved upon in the future. The library is a public good, and it is free as a public service.

NEW: Trump’s approval among Catholics falls to a historic low.

This artificial hand is nearly 500 years old. It consists of a metal casing which wrapped around the forearm stump & was secured by leather straps. An internal mechanical structure (now missing) may have allowed the fingers to move. The fingers can flex at the largest knuckle joint. #MedicalHistory

For all the fearmongering about capital flight from New York City, there’s an exodus few want to talk about: working people.
Sky-high rents and outrageous child care costs are already pushing families out of the city they keep running.
That’s what we have to change.
