Our modern Memorial Day began as Decoration Day in 1865, founded by 10,000 newly freed Black Americans in Charleston who built a proper cemetery and held a massive parade for fallen Union soldiers. Remembering its true origin ensures this vital Black history is never forgotten.

"I don't think the news is that bad, I think the news is bad." This dismissive wordplay from Scott Bessent shows a blatant disregard for journalism. Watching Bessent try to rewrite reality on national TV just to insulate Trump from critique is pure gaslighting

Trump is 52 points underwater on inflation. Harry Enten says no president has ever been this bad. Historic failure, now with a war attached, and the damage keeps climbing fast.

Trump cooked up a 1.8 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund for Jan. 6 insurrectionists, and somehow expects applause. Nice try. If you riot for the man and cash the check, New York should tax every last cent. Accountability is not optional.

Watch this breakdown of how Trump made 3,600 stock trades in three months while altering government policy. From reversing China chip restrictions for Nvidia to pushing crypto bills, every single official action conveniently doubles as a personal get-rich-quick scheme.

Top Trump economist admits tariffs are making imports more expensive.

The Pentagon is handing out military parade tickets based on waist size. A defense official literally said “no fatties.” These are the same Republicans who slashed VA benefits and fired decorated generals. Our troops deserve better than a casting call.

Love Island: "America's sexiest singles will land in Fiji looking for love while competing for a share of $100,000. I mean, wow, YOU could get half a tank of gas for that!" Rising price of gas probably engenders mostly tears but, still, laughter is good for the soul!

Trump lied to your face today — again. Gas prices are up nationwide because of HIS war with Iran. You’re paying for it every time you fill up. Save this for November. Make him own it.

If you need a moment of pure joy, look no further. These "Knitting Nanas" create handmade items for wildlife, including blankets for recovery and sweaters for oil-spill rescue penguins. Every stitch helps protect animals and supports global conservation efforts. 🐧🧶💖

LOL! This woman is a genius! In the parody of democracy that Germany has become, you get arrested if you say "From the River to the Sea." So this pro-Palestine protester asks if it is ok to say "From the River to the Beach" 😂😂😂😂 This is a scene straight out of Kafka...

The graceful shape of their head, the flowing mane & tail, and riding a horse just feels like freedom. I collected Toy horses as a girl and Horsey was part of that collection. I do not remember how his tail broke off, but I remember when it happened and it was devastating to me at the time. #horse

Good morning all you amazing critters and welcome to a terrific Tuesday, celebrate all that you accomplish.

Iran is making fun of TACO Trump's last minute ceasefire. I think this is is their best Lego viral video so far.

🚨 Russian economy horror stories. Some oil sanctions lifted — but it won’t save the collapsing Russian economy. In just 3 months of 2026, the Kremlin already reached the budget deficit planned for the whole year. Regional leaders blame Moscow for poverty, collapsing services, and empty budgets.
