Historian here: “To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ― Theodore Roosevelt

Historian of the Civil War here and I approve of this message.

One year ago today, Minnesota Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark were senselessly murdered in an act of political violence. In their memory, we recommit ourselves to the values that Melissa and Mark exemplified: building a kinder, more just, and loving world.

The Knicks literally only lost the game Trump came to.

Parade. Thursday. Manhattan.

Well, I gotta admit it was worth the wait for that curtain to be removed.

So Zelensky desecrated the White House by not wearing a suit but this is ok?????

Aged like milk.

JUST IN: This Is A Pretty Stunning Observation. Trump is celebrating a new Iran agreement centered on a commitment that Iran will never obtain a nuclear weapon. According to ABC's Jonathan Karl, that same commitment appeared in the very first paragraph of President Obama's nuclear deal more than a decade ago. Think about that. First came Obama's agreement. Then Trump tore it up. Now Trump is celebrating an agreement built around the same core promise.

Not content to controlling our economy and our political system, the Oligarchs are now consolidating control over the media. Trump’s ally David Ellison is poised to control both CBS and CNN. Not acceptable. This merger must be opposed.

"The UFC event captures something about this moment in our history. After all, it’s vulgar, it’s violent, it’s commercial, it’s grandiose, it’s tacky, and it dishonors a place once thought worthy of care and respect. In other words, it’s Donald Trump." open.substack.com/pub/thebul…

FIFA is pathetic for just allowing things like this to happen like its nothing

This is not sustainable. Plutarch warned us 2,000 years ago that the imbalance between rich and poor is the oldest and most fatal ailment of all republics. We have got to democratize our economy so that it works for all.

“We are deeply disturbed to learn so many senior members of the Trump administration gathered in the Situation Room to discuss the release of the Epstein Files as a reputational problem… we are separately concerned Todd Blanche was at that table.”

We’ve had few military heroes greater than Chappie James. This is nothing more than rank racism, plain and simple, and utterly despicable and disgraceful to the Office this traitor holds.

The 10 hours of erecting scaffolding wasn’t to strip the letters (something that 30 minutes in a boom lift could accomplish), it was to conceal the view with a curtain because Trump couldn’t handle the optics of the letters of his name being plucked off the building.

Historian of abolition here and I approve of this message. His truth goes marching on!
