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.

SNAP is not why your groceries are expensive. Besides lifting people out of poverty, SNAP is an economically efficient program. Every dollar invested generates $1.50 in economic activity when it is spent.

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.

Trump’s fuel blockade left Cuba with zero diesel, zero crude, zero fuel oil. 22-hour blackouts. 11,000 children waiting for surgery. The UN calls it “energy starvation.” Call Congress and say so: 1-202-224-3121.

Even Fox News admits Ken Paxton is an "extremely flawed candidate" and "the worst is yet to come." If even their own cheerleaders see how utterly compromised their lineup is, it must be bad. But please, tell us more about how they are the party of law and order.

This is what we are fighting to protect. Watch history come alive on a 19th-century press as Howard crafts a timeless tribute for Memorial Day. Watch until the end for a beautiful, quiet reminder that our democracy is a living legacy of those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Q: How long until we see Trump's face on a $250 bill? Bessent: There is proposed legislation to change the requirements so that a living person, Donald J. Trump, could be on the $250 bill. (Is there anyone who wants to see that? In today's economy, who could afford such a thing?)

JD Vance tells his crowd to "vote against the crazy leadership in Washington, D.C. Hey Vance, thanks for dismissing your own leadership but we got this. Without your assistance. But thanks anyway.

Trump admits he doesn't think about our economy, and Lindsey Graham cheers it on as his Churchill moment. Graham actually declared that whatever price we have to pay, we will pay. They will gladly watch your cost of living skyrocket to play out their military fantasies.

Our country has always been a work in progress, built and protected by everyday people who made the ultimate sacrifice. This Memorial Day, let’s honor their legacy by remembering that the freedom they died for is worth protecting, worth perfecting, and always worth defending together.

"Australians deserve to get a fair return on the export of our gas." "Companies can export it...but they should be paying us 25% of whatever they get for that gas." - @davidpocock.bsky.social 👏👏👏 #auspol

Broken heart? Watch this. Hey, if you’re feeling shattered, listen up. In the mess of brokenness, God promises restoration. Psalm 147:3 says, 'He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.' That promise isn’t just words—it's a lifeline. When life cracks you, let His love stitch the piece

Honoured to second Kate Chaney's bill to ban gambling ads today. It's good policy and Australians want it. If the Gov is too scared to stand up on this, they should at least get out of the way and let others do it for them #auspol #politas

El palacio de Amber, situado más abajo en el valle, era mucho más accesible y por lo tanto más vulnerable a ataques. Jaigarh, en cambio, se construyó en lo alto de la colina Cheel ka Teela como una verdadera fortaleza militar, y su función era servir de última línea de defensa.

We met with officials at the Interior Department and members of Congress from both parties to seek full funding of the Japanese American Confinement Sites program and the transfer of land where our historic hospital sits. We’re grateful for their support and generosity.

The lesson here isn’t just about phones in schools. It’s about human behavior: Take something away, and people usually replace it with something else.⁣ ⁣ Economists call this substitution.
