The ignorance of this administration is jaw-dropping. On Wednesday, Rep. Summer Lee (D-PA) asked Education Secretary Linda McMahon if teaching the Tulsa Race Massacre or Ruby Bridges counted as “illegal DEI.” McMahon wouldn’t give a straight yes or no. That says everything.

KENNEDY: Harvard is in many respects violating federal law SCARBOROUGH: What federal law is Harvard violating? KENNEDY: Harvard practices ideological capture

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

Interview with Harvard's 2025 valedictorian, a Chinese national, while two American men fight over nothing in the background

The US Secretary of Education, Linda McMahon, seemingly does not know about the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre or Ruby Bridges: “I will look into it and get back to you.”

🇺🇦 Zelensky at Ramstein meeting: The Russian army has reduced our cities and villages in Donetsk and beyond to ruins. And that is what we are fighting to stop. We are fighting against death – the death that Russia is bringing to our land.

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*

Bernie: "What that is all about is that if you're rich in America, you can make campaign contributions, you are entitled to massive tax breaks because you're superhuman beings. But if you're a poor working stiff, working at McDonald's, struggling to put food on the table, you're entitled to nothing"

VAN HOLLEN: I'm simply asking you to provide the committee with a reorganization plan, and your response is 'maybe yes, maybe no.' Am I getting that right? LUTNICK: We're going to follow the law VAN HOLLEN: The law requires to you to submit these major changes to the Senate

Ukraine’s Security Service reportedly spent over 18 months preparing Operation “Pavutýna” ("Spiderweb"), which targeted 41 Russian strategic aircraft today. According to Ihor Lachenkov referring to sources within the SBU, FPV drones were first smuggled into Russia, followed by mobile wooden cabins.

Tough day for Putin lovers.

This is a terrible and inexcusable act of violence that does nothing to help bring peace. Just vile. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/01/u...

People so often overlook the importance of good penmanship.

Waking up to Ukraine absolutely shredding Russian military and air force Is amazing Slava Ukrainii

“We’re not in love with the law” is a pretty good motto for this group

MAKARY: 88 percent of American kids, their parents have said no to the covid shot last season. So the vast majority of Americans are saying no. BRENNAN: I don't want to crowdsource my health guidance. You don't go with popularity, you go with data.

My radical position is that congress should remove a president if he pronounces that his predecessor was assassinated and replaced by a clone

Margaret Brennan totally exposes FDA Commissioner Makary for making it up as he goes and making conflicting recommendations in order to cast doubt on covid vaccines. He's so terrible during this interview that Brennan is left shaking her head as she wraps it up.

Ukraine struck the city of Severomorsk that houses Russia's nuclear submarines, initial reports say at least one nuclear submarine was damaged or destroyed

A lot of these people are just not telling the truth

the universe wishes you a very happy pride month 🏳️‍🌈🌌

Oh, look, this Cybertruck got the aftermarket Roman customization package.

In a healthy information environment, this would be front-page news.
