Superman was incredible. It's as good as everyone says.

This is a fun movie about kindness, hope, and doing the right thing. It is exactly the right movie that the world needs right now and you are telling on yourself if you think it's "woke".

When did he arrive at the G7?

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.

That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.

So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

AIISF Newsletter / April 2025 | Angel Island Immigration Station - San Francisco A Message From AIISF’s Executive Director Dear AIISF Friends and Family, I’m not going to mince words. It has been a challenging few weeks for AIISF. In March, the administration released an…

Another important institution Trumped.

The EO “effectively ended [Angel Island immigration station foundation’s] two-year IMLS grant to enhance the site’s permanent exhibits with additional stories of immigrants detained at Angel Island and immigrants who have more recently arrived in the US.”

When any politician talks about NOT funding the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) at about 300 million a year but says nothing when the Federal Government gives Elon Musk (worth 359 Billion) 6 Billion for his space company, you know that they are an Oligarchy loving Hypocrite.

For the #HandsOff , there were a group of seniors that couldn't make it to the Capitol.

So they held their very own! 57 of them came out!

Aged 67-104!

They all walked down to the main street! So proud of them!

They had s sign making day before the event!

They sent this video to me to share.🥰

The IMLS page posted some bullshit on Instagram. And Youtube. Because the pages are in enemy hands

Arkansas Senate narrowly OKs dissolution of State Library; bill heads to House • Arkansas Advocate SB 536 received the minimum of 18 votes to pass the Senate. Emergency clauses need 24 Senate votes to advance.

Arkansas Republicans just voted to dismantle their state library at the Capitol, pushing a bill that could strip funding from public libraries & censor any books they don't like under vague "age-inappropriate" rules. It now heads to the Arkansas House. The GOP’s continuous war on knowledge continues

Sometimes you have to LOVE historical justice.

KC libraries, museums in ‘scary’ moment as Trump targets agency providing vital funds President Donald Trump’s executive order targeting the Institute of Museum and Library Services has left Kansas City organizations in an uncertain moment.

Thanks to KC Star for this important story about the local impacts of the elimination of the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). The independent federal agency provides grant funding to many museums and libraries across the country.

Same with national parks.

Same with museums.

Same with theater, the arts, or anything cultural.

And he cuts funding for K-9 programs because he loathes dogs. Hired a woman who kills them.

EVERY SINGLE DEMOCRAT, DO THIS 🔥 🔥 🔥

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.
