In the 1990s, building work in a church in Cortona, Italy, revealed this unknown fresco, believed to be the work of the 14th century Sienese artist Jacopo di Mino del Pellicciaio.

Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪

Congratulations to Equality Caucus Co-Chair Rep. Robert Garcia for becoming the first openly-LGBTQI+ Member of Congress to serve as Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee!

Okay, well if you can sue judges, who wants to file a lawsuit against Aileen Cannon with me?

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

City lights like distant stars, Flicker, shimmer, heal old scars. A lonely soul walks far and free. Bound to night, yet kissed by sea.

In the course of your trauma & addiction recovery, you absolutely will, in fact, evolve into a person very different than some (or maybe many!) people in your life remember. Remember: that's the good news. They may struggle to see that way, but it is.

Funny guy

This is really short, so easy watch. I've mentioned how pumping up the infrastructure is what saved us all from the great depression. This is another facet of that. Lift people out of poverty, and you help the country! Tax breaks for rich do NOT benefit the people!!! youtube.com/shorts/IWs-z...

MUST SEE: Congresswoman Schrier nails conspiracy theorist and unfortunate HHS Secretary, RFK Jr., on the value of vaccines—and it’s glorious. Schrier also happens to be the first pediatrician in Congress.

Victory will be ours, Russian soldiers shout as they victoriously crash into trees.

Carney confirms on CNN that he is actively moving away from the US towards a closer relationship with the EU. #cdnpoli

Zohran Mamdani stunned former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who conceded the New York City mayoral primary race to the 33-year-old state lawmaker. trib.al/KfNebEQ

This is a big beautiful flag pole. It is very tall, and it is tapered on top, there is a ball on top, the rope is inside the pole. It is magnificent, biggest ever. The Canadian flag is huge. Best flagpole ever.

LENOIR CITY, TN — pregnant fiancée of an American lost her baby in ICE detention after they denied her prenatal care after pleading for help for days. (@ltgovmcnally & @lowellrussell21’s district) Unimaginable cruelty. @MarshaBlackburn @SenatorHagerty nashvillebanner.com/2025/05/27/i...

Have a great time at the World Cup! Remember an unidentified masked person can grab you at anytime and send you to a foreign gulag and you will have no chance to defend yourself! Anyway buy a ticket!

WE SEE YOU People are watching and cellphone cameras are capturing the illicit activities and thuggery of our Gestapo

A gentleman was going to whipper-snip these so I asked if I could pick them 💕

in late 2026, nearly 50 years after its launch, voyager 1 will be the first manmade object to reach a distance of one light day from the sun

This is sick! Have you seen ICE’s TikTok page? Propaganda on steroids, targeting young dudes chasing a sense of power. Edited like war games, built to thrill while dehumanizing immigrants. RECRUITMENT VIDEOS—for state-sponsored vigilantism.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

These are not police. By law, they have to identify. If they won’t—copy their plates, call the actual police and let them know you are witnessing armed police impersonators.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

A simple idea that could save your life and help you to be found

If you’ve never seen one before, this is a strawberry finch.

Six former CDC vaccine chairs are sounding the alarm—and we better listen. The U.S. is on the brink of losing access to life-saving immunizations. When science is attacked and trust is eroded, lives will be lost. This is not a drill. This is a national emergency.

We don’t know what the real name of the Director of White House Personnel is, we don’t know what country he came from, he refuses to turn in background check forms, and nobody will ask the president or press secretary about it.

Conserving our environment is an American value. From hikers to hunters we want to keep our public lands public! Thats why the unprecedented sell-off of millions of acres of public lands needs to be removed from the Senate Budget Bill. Nature is non partisan! 🇺🇸 Pass it on!

The Los Angeles Dodgers said they denied federal immigration officials access to the area around the team’s stadium on Thursday morning. The news comes hours after The Athletic reported the team’s plans to announce assistance to immigrants impacted by recent militarized raids.

Sayed Naser served as a U.S. military interpreter in Afghanistan. Now he’s being deported. The Taliban assassinated his brother and kidnapped his father. All because he helped us. Why are the feds trying to deport him, even though his asylum case is still pending? Not justice, it’s a betrayal.

"THE END OF OUR CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC AS WE KNOW IT COULD BE HAPPENING NOW"

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

Some Democratic senators now regret voting to confirm Kristi Noem as DHS secretary... Gee, if only there had been some way to know she'd be utterly incompetent at the job and supportive of whatever the Dear Leader ordered.

Yea… I’m good 😭
