President Trump's executive order to eliminate the Institute of Museum & Library Services would have disastrous effects for communities nationwide. We call on all Americans who value reading & learning to reach out to their elected leaders. Read ALA's full response: www.ala.org/news/2025/03...

ALA response to White House assault on IMLS
To dismiss the mission of an agency that advances opportunity and learning is to dismiss the aspirations and everyday needs of millions of Americans. And those who will feel that loss most keenly live in rural communities. 
As seedbeds of literacy and innovation, our nation’s 125,000 public, school, academic and special libraries deserve more, not less support. Libraries translate 0.003% of the federal budget into programs and services used by more than 1.2 billion people every year.

This taps into the problem of Amy Klobuchar's idiotic story about retail therapy at Container Store. If you are behaving like this as a US Senator, it does not make you relatable. It makes you a coward refusing to step up to the responsibility of power. www.rollingstone.com/product-reco...

Appearing on The View, the Democratic senator says her disenfranchised feelings after the inauguration led her to the store in search of organization

An ad put up at a bus stop in London today.

The advert is seen at the end of a bus stop. It says “GOES FROM 0 TO 1939 IN 3 SECONDS”.
