Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

it is absolutely true that lincoln tried not to get too far afield of public opinion on slavery, calibrating his positions and actions according to what he thought was the mainstream. but it is important to note that at no point did lincoln ever disavow or deny his sincerely held antislavery views

Phang: We don’t need the Ten Commandments hanging in Texas schools. What we need is common-sense gun legislation—so the kids can live. If my kid goes to a public school in Texas and they can’t come home alive, I don’t give a shit about the Ten Commandments being posted on the wall.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages. Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare... This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.

I don’t want to quote the person asking about why the trains are so dirty though I largely agree with their assessment. But often the cleanliness of Japan is attributed to cultural norms & while that plays a part the answer is that in USA we chose to fund police instead of train custodians.

This week, the Secretary of Homeland Security showed she did not even know what the term "habeas corpus" meant. It was a truly pathetic moment, but also truly representative of the embarrassing ignorance of this administration and their lack of respect for the rule of law. #ResistTrump
