I get the bond between this son and father, the immense love 💕. And it only makes Tim Walz more endearing.

. So sorry you lost your father so early in your life.
But thank you for embodying his teachings. MLK is a guiding light for me. I've tried in work to fight against racism and poverty and for social justice. 🙏❤️

Tucker Carlson is peddling a Nazi apologist who says Churchill was the real villain in WWII and the Holocaust was an accident.
This is not only disgusting, and deeply dangerous, it is of course historical malpractice.
Darryl Cooper may be the best and most honest popular historian in the United States. His latest project is the most forbidden of all: trying to understand World War Two.

In the introduction of Joni Mitchell they reminded us that she had to learn to walk three times, she recovered from polio early in life and a brain aneurism in 2015.
She wrote BOTH SIDES NOW in 1968, 56 years ago and it was recorded first by Judy Collins. This year she won a
The multitudes Joni Mitchell’s “Both Sides Now” contains, having been released when she was 26, to now, singing it with meaningful introspection and a wealth of wisdom at 80. This song (and this

Good question. After JFK was shot here is the media in a press conference at Parkland Hospital. Why wasn't the media at the hospital where Trump was treated, asking questions of the doctors?

So great to see you Celine. You could have done anything and we'd have been so happy. But you gave a typical great performance. Blessing to you.
This is such an important point. When I point out that inflation is down to under 3%, people say but "the prices are still high".
They want prices to return to 2019 levels, maybe dropping 40-50%.
First of all that NEVER happens after a period of inflation.
Second econ101 tells
It is again one of the huge failures (or corruptions) of the media that they talk about prices being high as a problem to be solved. Unless they are unbelievably ignorant of economics, they know prices will not fall. Why pretend otherwise?

Brit... I would think you would know that women who complications related to pregnancy could hamper their future ability to reproduce; so an abortion in that circumstance could help her later reproduce.
Trump admits that he took money from foreign governments while he was president. "I have great stuff. They stayed there and pay. I don't get eight million dollars doing nothing like Hunter." Trump also said he would not divest his businesses if he returned to the White House.
I got a pretty bad feeling this doesn't stop with President Biden. If he were to drop out, I feel like we'd see a deluge of media criticism for Vice President Harris or Gov. Whitmer or Gov. Newsom or Sec. Buttigieg or any other Democrat while Trump gets a pass.
Call it a hunch.
One thing I will NEVER understand is why the Missouri state government beats up so much on the
#StLouis
area.
It makes no sense.
St. Louis account for FORTY PERCENT of the State's INCOME and FORTY PERCENT of the people living in the state.
It's just bad economics, bad policy
🚨CBS News: Hungary’s Viktor Orbán seized control of universities rewrote the Constitution and neutered the courts.
Is that what you're advocating for in the US?
JD Vance: I think Orbán made smart decisions that we could learn from in the US.
It’s time to abolish the TSA.
Airlines can and will secure their own planes if a federal agency doesn’t do it for them.
They’ll do it better than TSA, without undermining the Constitution and with less groping—showing more respect for passengers.
Share if you agree.
