What musicians did after an executive order on DEI led to the cancellation of U.S. Marine Band collaboration After an executive order ending DEI initiatives, the U.S. Marine Band canceled a concert featuring young musicians of color. Veterans stepped in to mentor the aspiring musicians.

Donald Trump is a racist and his best boy Pete Hegseth is even worse. This story is enraging but I’m proud of the veterans that weren’t having this bullshit. www.cbsnews.com/news/concert...

It seems as if half the people in the MAGA/America First movement express open regret that Hitler didn't win World War II - and the other half don't know that if we'd listened to the America First movement of the day, he would have.

Ah, he never disappoints.

Wait.

So all I have to do to undermine Zuck and Meta a little bit is...talk about a book?

OK

Remember: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House.

If they refuse to put forward an offer that includes any Democratic input and they don’t get Democratic votes—that’s on Republicans.

Americans rightly understand REPUBLICANS have pushed toward a shutdown.

“If we just wholesale move into the realm of satire, they can’t make fun of us anymore. BOOM, checkmate libs!”

BREAKING: Extremely important song, hat, and footsie situation.

Not being able to talk to a real person at the Social Security Administration when you need help or your local office closing due to staffing cuts is a benefit cut—point blank.

Elon needs to get his hands OFF Social Security.

Repost if you agree.

Canada goose fights off bald eagle in rare, symbolism-laden battle on ice Photographer captures 20-minute clash between birds emblematic of Canada and US amid high trade tensions

‘“Nature has its way of taking out the weak and the not so well and the injured. The eagle likely thought it would be able to take it out quite easily,” Sequeira [the Ontario-based photographer] said. “But, it wasn’t.””

Are you posturing or really so uninformed and out of touch to make such a statement? Either way, your statement shows to your constituents that you are utterly the wrong person for this job. The president has never delivered a unifying message. It’s not worth my time to respond to the rest.

Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?

Psst, hey Republican voters, guess who votes to support the health, employment, and benefits of veterans? Democrats!

The thing that everyone thinks is nuts, but I absolutely think would work: a presentation that looked like an Apple keynote product launch, but for all the cool shit that the government makes for people. Cancer treatments, national parks, space discoveries, free tax filing, cool new airports.

What’s a lovely random thing you observed this week while you were out and about?

I ain’t buying shit. Plan ahead, but if you must buy essentials, use cash and support local businesses only. No corporate chains!

Someone got $38 billion in government funding.

investigative journalism, but a friend didn’t read it that way at all. Many people don’t always appreciate the 2 houses of papers (news vs editorial). Although framing of news articles is often problematic, the investigations are still very good. Anyway, that’s why clarity would be useful here.

If you would clarify what you mean by media, it would be very helpful. Meaning media might encapsulate talking heads, editorial, and investigative journalism. With the fall of the WP editorial section, investigative journalism still stands there. I read it as you addressing the likely future for…

Principles are costly always but I really like to pay the fee upfront. That way, you get the most value out of actually having them.

Loved this book- so original and creepy! Plus deeper themes than what I would think are typically found in a horror story- really great-thanks for writing it.

Any insight or articles on how to prepare investments and retirement accounts? Conventional wisdom doesn’t necessarily apply right now because of all the deliberately set in motion parts that likely will spell financial disaster.

So one of the things that I think is lost on AI proponents is what I call the card catalog effect, a thing I shouldn’t call it because a lot of people probably have no experience with a card catalog.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.
