There's a difference between rejoicing over the loss of a person and rejoicing over the loss of what that person enabled. I won't allow him or anyone else to take my humanity. I will rejoice a major step on the road to national recovery.

Do you know what's more dangerous than an
undocumented immigrant in America who gets up at 4am to go to work?
A sitting president who casually mentions we should just let a foreign power obliterate two
American cities filled with millions of people all because he doesn't like how they tend to vote.

In his new book, Paul Theroux quotes a Canadian woman who describes Americans as "a fearful people," observing that so many own guns. She asks what they're so afraid of. Theroux thinks the answer is obvious: "They're afraid of other Americans with guns."

Sir Ian McKellen orates 'The Stranger's Case' from 'Sir Thomas More' by Shakespeare about the Evil May Day xenophobic riot of 1517 in London. This passage was written 400 years ago, but times never change. Humanity refuses to change its unwarranted bias against 'others'.

Trump White House misspells “United” on the official “super intelligence” document with AI executives. Instead of “President of the United States,” it reads: “President of the Unites States.” Nothing says “super intelligence” quite like misspelling the name of the country.
Screenshot of a Truth Social post from Donald J. Trump’s verified @realDonaldTrump account displaying a signed document titled “Joint Commitment on Frontier Responsibilities.” The document outlines voluntary AI safety and oversight commitments for companies developing frontier artificial intelligence models. On the right side are signatures and company labels for leaders including Sundar Pichai of Google, Dario Amodei of Anthropic, Mark Zuckerberg of Meta, Greg Brockman of OpenAI, Elon Musk of xAI, and Jensen Huang of Nvidia. Near the center-right, Donald J. Trump’s large signature appears above the printed title identifying him as president. The title contains a noticeable typo: instead of “President of the United States,” it reads, “President of the Unites States,” misspelling “United” as “Unites.”

In the 25 years since 9/11, the United States has spent $8 trillion+ on wars that have taken millions of lives in the name of fighting "terror." Can you imagine if we had instead invested those funds here on climate, health care, housing, and education?

A woman with a cane stands at a ticket window staffed by a man. A nearby kiosk has an out of order sign. The ticket clerk says, "OK, one more time. Go home and log on to our website from your computer, create an account and purchase your ticket with your credit or debit card, download the ticket to a smartphone, then come back at the allocated time...Just what part of 'easier and more convenient ' don't you get?"
