Healthcare in Greenland is publicly funded, free at the point of use, and despite geographical challenges considered very good.

Healthcare costs in the USA are extortionate and responsible for 60% of all US bankruptcies.

So maybe Denmark should be sending hospital ships the other way.

A son of sharecroppers, a Freedom Rider, a moral force in Congress, John Lewis taught us that democracy is not a state, it is an act. When we see injustice, we do not look away. We get in good trouble. And we build bridges despite adversity. Happy Heavenly Birthday, Congressman.

Clarence Thomas Secretly Accepted Luxury Trips From Major GOP Donor Island-hopping on a superyacht. Private jet rides around the world. The undisclosed gifts to Thomas have no known precedent in the modern history of the Supreme Court. β€œIt’s incomprehensible to me tha...

Our Pulitzer-winning "Friends of the Court" series began with this story that revealed how SCOTUS Justice Clarence Thomas had, for 20+ years, been treated to undisclosed luxury vacations by real estate titan and GOP megadonor Harlan Crow.

Just because they aren’t extermination camps doesn’t mean they aren’t concentration camps

Nor does it mean that people aren’t dying in them

Because they are

The Trump administration is trying to erase Black history. These writers are keeping it alive. At a time when Black history is being removed from schools, museums, and parks, Black journalists are fighting to tell a more inclusive American story.

The Trump administration is removing references to Black history from the nation’s museums, parks, and schools.

When history itself is being erased at the highest levels, who’s left to tell us where we’ve been and where we’re headed?

Thank you to Greenland for providing emergency medical care to a US sailor on board the submarine, since we did not have adequate resources in the area to treat him. I’m sorry that our president felt the need to cover up our shortcomings with a deranged ghost hospital ship post.

SAVE America Act
YouTube video by CLSB Politics SAVE America Act

In this video I take a look at the β€œSave America Act” that the GOP MAGA Congress is trying to pass. This bill has a huge impact on Blue States specifically and also has an adverse effect on rural communities that I don’t think the GOP has taken into consideration.

Ghislaine Maxwell Fights Release Of More Epstein Documents Lawyers for imprisoned British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell are fighting the requested release of 90,000 pages related to Jeffrey Epstein.

Why is Maxwell fighting the release of 90, 000 pages of documents in her case?

She told Todd Blanche that nothing inappropriate happened and she should be pardoned.

I thought there was no there, there.

They are counting on us to quietly disappear.

History shows regimes fall when ordinary people refuse to leave the field.

We win 2026 by staying.

Endurance isn’t passive. It’s organized. Local. Relentless.

Courage is contagious. Spread it.

This odious white supremacist needs to learn some history.

Not so long ago, it was common to see "Irish need not apply" in job listings in the United States. You know, the same type of pernicious prejudice that Elon exhibits regularly.

Is that where we’re at now?

They’re seeding the news channels with a fear tactic that bringing these RAPISTS OF CHILDREN (and possibly MURDERERS OF CHILDREN) to justice is going to cause β€˜problems’ so therefore we should just..not?

Former Bosnian intelligence agent Edin Subaőić, reported the practice was uncovered after interrogating a Bosnian Serb prisoner and reported to Italian intelligence (SISMI), which later claimed the matter was closed, but followed no investigation or arrests. #OpDeathEaters
