Few people have embodied the best of journalism—its ability to cut through BS, its capacity to uplift those who’ve been wronged, its burning appetite to tell the stories people need to know—like Bill Moyers.

Nice work to all the Senators who claim to be pro-Ukraine to confirm a Secretary of Defense with a long track record of making anti-Ukraine statements. What could go wrong? Plenty more in addition to what already has. www.nbcnews.com/news/militar...
Hegseth halted weapons for Ukraine despite military analysis that the aid wouldn’t jeopardize U.S. readiness
The move blindsided the State Department, Ukraine, European allies and members of Congress, who demanded an explanation from the Pentagon.

The passage of Donald Trump’s $4.5 trillion megabill constitutes a major victory for the President—and an illustration of the raw power he wields over today’s G.O.P., @sbg1.bsky.social writes.
Trump’s Megabill and the New Art of G.O.P. Capitulation
Rarely have so many members of Congress voted for a measure they so actively disliked.

So they did it. The fucked every man, woman, and child, in America, just to please their fearless leader. It makes no difference that millions of innocent seniors and children will die because of this law. That American citizens can now be swept off the streets for no reason and with no recourse...

The jokes write themselves in 2025.
Just ahead of the Independence Day long weekend, beaches across the country have closed and issued advisories due to excessive levels of fecal waste.
Dozens of beaches close before July Fourth weekend due to fecal bacteria
At least six states have issued closures or advisories for certain beaches and lakes that have tested positive for fecal bacteria above safe levels.

Smokey skies at sunset. Tonight just after sundown in the flat fields of Wood County, Ohio, where wildfire smoke has settled in and mixed with fog, like a puff from a stranger’s cigarette in crowd waiting to cross a busy street in the damp night. #sunset #smoke #spring #clouds #nature #ohio

“Come On” is a straight-forward tune written by the straightforward rock n’ roll icon Chuck Berry. The Rolling Stones were searching for the “right” first song to release as a single and “Come On” met the criteria.

Stones Come On Chuck Berry | The Woodstock Whisperer/Jim Shelley
Stones Come On Chuck Berry, their 2nd single, "I Wanna Be Your Man." The title may sound familiar and it should. The song was written by Lennon and McCartney.
