Nessa explains an architect’s POV on the WH destruction.

None of it makes sense. Zero.

What exactly is the regime up to, especially with Trump referring to this monstrosity as β€œthe arc?”

Jess, a U.S. citizen and member of a neighborhood patrol team that documents and shares ICE activity across the city, was filming when the incident occurred earlier today in the Berwyn area.

I'm aware that the President likes to go on television and beg me to call him to ask for troops.

I find it strange, as Chicago doesn't want troops.

I also have experience asking him for assistance – just to have the rug pulled up from underneath me when execution meets reality.

The discussion is anchored on 20th century premises: filing cabinets and pages. This information is digitizedβ€”protected certainlyβ€”but there has to be more than one way to access it. More copies must exist. That’s what’s baffling to me.

The Flattening 3: A Reckoning The Ways We Learn Not to Care

What if the collapse didn’t come
with fire, but paperwork?

No bans,just β€œeligibility reforms.”

No raids, just β€œcompliance checks.”

The Flattening traces the quiet normalization of cruelty, and what it means to live, adapt, and forget inside it.

This is how it happens. Quietly.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.

Will we listen to his words today?

Promotional photo of actor Michael Madsen

Michael Madsen was a childhood friend of my brother, Danny. He was funny, mischievous, and very kind. When Danny passed away, he wrote a beautiful remembrance that was read at his funeral. Michael was a profoundly talented actor. His depth of character shone through all of his roles. #MichaelMadsen

Weird priorities. President Trump is illegally withholding $7 billion Congress appropriated for afterschool and summer programs, teacher training and other educational needs. Meanwhile, he’s demanding a trillion in tax breaks for the 1%.

That's not what the American people want.

Some community college students could lose their financial lifeline under the 'Big, Beautiful Bill' They would be required to enroll full time to be eligible for federal Pell Grants, which many low- and middle-income students rely on to help pay tuition.

The bill would increase the number of credit hours students must take each semester from 12 to 15 and could strain those who work, parent, suffer financial distress or otherwise find it difficult to increase their course loads.
