WIC is an excellent nutrition program for pregnant women and young children. It makes sure infants get a decent start. Hard to see why politicians would want to cut it — but now they do. It might fund a day or so of the Iran war.

Carolyn Davidson was a graphic design student at Portland State University when Phil Knight, who was then teaching accounting part-time, asked her to create a logo for his fledgling shoe company.
She billed the project at $2 per hour and received a total of $35 for her work. The design she produced would eventually become the iconic Nike swoosh.
Twelve years later, in 1983, Knight invited Davidson to a company event and surprised her with a special gift: a gold ring featuring the swoosh logo set with a diamond, along with an envelope containing 500 shares of Nike stock.
Over time, those shares grew in value and are now worth millions of dollars.

awww, thank you, Billie… I remember practicing for hours with you in that Florida sun! You returned the favor by practicing with me during Wimbledon the year I won it. This is what friends do.❤️
I owe my first (and only) French Open women's singles title to the one and only @ChrissieEvert.
Winning this title was a big goal, and she practiced with me endlessly in Florida beforehand so I could prepare.
I won the title 54 years ago today.
Thank you, Chrissie!

It’s important to me that everyone feels represented in Washington and that starts with conversations just like this one.
Let’s fight for the future of #Kentucky together by winning this open seat in November. I’m asking for your vote in the Democratic Primary on May 19.
