Sadly I did not know this for the first 55 years of my life. They do not teach you this. This is absolutely true. And we should honor all of them this Memorial Day and always 

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

My epiphany about the flavors of racism: As a teen, I lived in Brazil. Amazing country with incredible culture, food, music and more. And I believed, erroneously, far less racist than America. But I now see that it’s not that Brazil is less racist. It’s that it has a different

NEW: More than a dozen high-ranking executive branch officials and congressional aides made well-timed trades since Trump took office, most of them selling stock before the market plunged amid fears that Trump’s tariffs would set off a global trade war.

Wanna see something cool? At the Grammy's in 1976, Ella Fitzgerald and Mel Torme explained what jazz is. The result? The crowd losing its mind. 🔥

NEW: In agency after agency, the U.S. government is losing its capacity to measure how American society is functioning, making it much harder to gauge the nature and scale of the problems we are facing and the effectiveness of policies. By @alecmac.bsky.social

the plan is to end American science research all of it, no exceptions other countries simply will not be able to fill the gaps here, this is just a shocking devastation of human scientific progress as a whole

BlackPast has a comprehensive list of Black history museums across the country:

Harris was at an invite only BLACK WOMEN'S leadership summit as a SURPRISE. She was not a keynote speaker. They did not buy tickets or give donations. They also did not have demands of her to say things they already know she thinks/feels bc ever woman in that room busted their ass to get her elected

Vice President Kamala Harris warned everyone that the orange felon would destroy the country. It still breaks my heart that people chose a rapist felon criminal traitor over a leader. I’ll never regret voting for her.

JUST IN: The FDA’s top vaccine official, Dr. Peter Marks, has been pushed out. In his resignation letter, he slams RFK Jr. for rejecting “truth and transparency” and pushing “misinformation and lies.” Marks warns of an “unprecedented assault on scientific truth.”

America destroyed itself due to greed and racism. It tracks. The two original sins the country was unable or unwilling to ever confront and conquer.

It’s really fascinating what happens when you remove diversity—white male incompetency is placed on full display and with no one to blame for their actions —so they just lie.

"The best thing about working for Kamala Harris was watching a phenomenally competent and successful woman own her power in the most challenging of circumstances. " slate.com/news-and-pol...

Abruptly ending USAID support in the poorest parts of the world, ended lives in much the same way ordering aitstrikes would have. These are deaths that happened for no reason besides spite and scoring political points to own the libs. It is beyond tragic and a stain on the soul of this nation.

There is a certain “burn it all down” impulse that is sometimes articulated under the guise of abolitionist, antiracist, anticolonial, or anarchist politics (ask me how I know) that is too often divorced from the practical question of whether you’re actually prepared to survive societal collapse.

ICYMI: “Arlington National Cemetery has scrubbed information about prominent Black, Hispanic and female service members and topics such as the Civil War from its website”…in order “to remove all references to diversity, equity and inclusion from its online presence.”

No-win situation now but we had a winnable situation on Nov 5th.

I don't want to say the Schumer optics are bad but Gavin Newsom just invited him on his podcast.

FYI. I go off on an EPIC Rant on the anniversary of America joining the Axis of Evil Autocrats. Beware. It’s is F-Bombs Away on Trump, MAGA & those who betrayed their oath.

A collection of prehistoric animal bones discovered in Tanzania suggests early humans in Africa figured out how to transfer tool-making techniques “from stone to bone” 1.5 million years than previously thought.

Straight up. Trump is a traitor & He is Putins Bitch. That’s it. That’s the tweet.

“This is going to be a massive loss of life overall. Children are likely already dying, and will clearly be dying in large numbers.” -former USAID official @agawande.bsky.social, to me, in this piece. Lots more like that in here:

NEW: The axing of some 10,000 programs has consigned untold numbers of children and refugees to death, officials say. Documents and interviews reveal that the State Department appears to have made the cuts without the careful review it described in court. By Brett Murphy and @annamaria.bsky.social

This is our emergency pod following today's meeting. You don't want to miss it. One conclusion: Ukraine will continue to do well without the U.S. Another: Trump is now 100% on Team Putin. Another: Five Eyes intel partnership is doomed. Another: Big challenges ahead for DoD & Intel professionals.

What you saw today was the Russian mob acting out of the Oval Office.

Marco Rubio is like having Tom Wambsgabs as Secretary of State, a man whose ambition is to be an empty suit, on board to take any stance, say anything, whatever the boss wants, and sponge up some of the pain that comes back, all for the trappings, the title, the plane rides, the suits, to be there.

Trump is a MFin' Russian Agent. There is no denying it now. He is the #CyberianCandidate Read it on my substack open.substack.com/pub/malcolmn...
