The founders of the Nesconset memorial, whose official name is 9/11 Responders Remembered Park, say it is the first space in the country honoring those whose lives were cut short from illnesses linked to their work at Ground Zero.

John Roberts and the SCOTUS Republicans have allowed Trump to proceed with his egregious mail-in voting restrictions. 21 years ago, I warned at Roberts' confirmation hearing he would be a dangerously right-wing Chief Justice. I have sadly been proven right, over and over.

Olivia Rodrigo raised $20 million for women's well-being with a benefit show featuring a women-led lineup. Her show raised $10 million and Melinda French Gates pledged another $10 million. Rodrigo said the festival's artists and activists give her hope despite the “regression of women's rights."

(1 of 2) I've now seen the video taken by the woman in the pink jacket—she was just feet away. Only watch it if you have a very strong stomach. It confirms that the man Trump agents executed in broad daylight was killed because he dared to try to protect a woman who was being abused by Trump agents.
