Happy Sunday! Here’s a beautiful rose I came across during my walk around the neighborhood for your enjoyment. Have a beautiful day and a peaceful week.

The firing of Dr. Hayden was already a travesty and Todd Blanche as the interim Librarian of Congress just rubbed salt, lime juice, and battery acid in the wound

Library of Congress staff just showed what resistance looks like. After Trump abruptly fired Dr. Carla Hayden, the respected Librarian of Congress, he tried to install Todd Blanche, his former personal lawyer and current Deputy Attorney General, as acting librarian. Staff weren’t having it.

Dr. Carla Hayden is the most qualified Librarian of Congress in the history of the position. She’s the *only* one who is a librarian. Before her the position was an appointment for life. When she was appointed they limited her term. She’s the only woman and only African American to hold the office.

Happy Sunday and Happy Mother’s Day to all who nurture, support, guide and love. It truly takes a village. Have a good day and an exceptional week.

I am deeply troubled by the dismissal of Dr. Carla Hayden, a trailblazing librarian and the first African American and woman to serve as Librarian of Congress. Her leadership modernized access to knowledge for all. This is a loss for intellectual freedom and public service.

NEW: ALA salutes Dr Carla Hayden for her exceptional service to the nation as the Librarian of Congress. We are deeply disappointed in Dr Hayden's abrupt & unjust dismissal last night, an insult to the scope & breadth of her work. Read ALA Pres. Cindy Hohl's statement: www.ala.org/news/2025/05...

Dr. Carla Hayden has served as Librarian of Congress with honor and distinction, bringing our prized institution to new heights.   Trump’s outrageous, politically-motivated move to fire her is despicable. The Library of Congress belongs to the American people — NOT to Trump.

Happy Sunday! The iris are in bloom and absolutely glorious. Take a breath and have a lovely day.

ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention? www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...
