YouTube video by Heather Cox Richardson The Declaration of Independence | Journey to American Democracy

A video about the Declaration of Independence. I'm proud of this one.

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It β€˜s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

This is what true leadership looks like. You lead with compassion & empathy. You comfort & heal.

Not the hateful BS happening right now.

I miss Biden’s leadership. He wasn’t perfect, but he is a good man & a true leader.

These pics don’t fit their narrative of him being unfit.

Who’d have thought N Korea would have the tourist destination headline & the US would have militarized borders?

Only with these fuckwits in charge…

US exceptionalism at its finest, huh?

Call your senators. Some of them are not happy about selling off our national parks.

A G.O.P. Plan to Sell Public Land Is Back. This Time, It’s Millions of Acres.

We cannot stop beating this drum.

Republicans are about to sell of millions of acres of public lands.

This will harm everyone, but especially Utahns. Call your Senators and tell them to vote NO! www.nytimes.com/2025/06/12/c...

Host: Are you saying the US did not see intelligence that the Supreme Leader had ordered weaponization?

Rubio: That’s irrelevant

Host: No, that's a key point

Rubio: No it’s not… Forget about intelligence

Top Dems on House and Senate Intel Committees β€” Jim Himes and Mark Warner, both members of Gang of Eight β€” were not briefed before the attacks on Iranian nuclear sites, per sources.

The war in Iran is illegal under the UN Charter, under War Powers Act, and didn't even comply with National Security Act.

The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.
He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations.
It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

A community leader observed to me that on Juneteenth everyone has a stake in remembering our country’s history, especially the bad parts. Looking to the past helps us see more clearly where we are as a nation and where we need to go.

Conserving our environment is an American value. From hikers to hunters we want to keep our public lands public! Thats why the unprecedented sell-off of millions of acres of public lands needs to be removed from the Senate Budget Bill.

Juneteenth went uncelebrated by the White House. That alone says everything you need to know about this regime.
