Slavery’s brutal reality shocked Northerners before the Civil War − and is being whitewashed today by the White House Abolitionists used hard facts to counter pro-slavery propaganda, forcing indifferent Americans to face ugly realities.

The Trump administration is reviewing Smithsonian exhibits on slavery, reportedly flagging materials like "The Scourged Back" − a powerful 1863 photograph of a formerly enslaved man's scarred back − for removal from public museums and national parks. buff.ly/q6JYITE

Why would Jeffrey Epstein kill himself in jail if he had this much leverage of the one person who could give him a full pardon?

every epstein email is some creep complaining about MeToo and then being like “oh before i forget, any advice on how to use my position of authority to force women into sleeping with me?”

The Republican Attack on Public Education Dismantling the Department of Education and pouring taxpayer dollars into private schools.

“Under the guise of getting the federal government out of education and parental rights, Trump’s plan . . . creates needless opportunities for the further enrichment of the wealthy, and drastically cuts support for public education.”

I’m still struggling with the fact that ICE “brown shirts” went to a taco shop and thought they would get served.

F that!

John Kerrigan · No Illusions: Syntax of Slavery Slavery was accepted across most of the early modern world. No one wanted to be a slave, except when the alternative was...

‘Liverpool went from having a single slave ship in 1709 to more than a hundred six decades later. By 1795 it controlled almost half of the European slave trade.’

The thing is that he charmed millions to vote for him. He knew how to charm them with racism and violence against others. Cruelty.

The Firewall Against Nick Fuentes Is Crumbling The white-supremacist influencer is entering the MAGA mainstream.

America has no idea what's about to hit them. "Young Republicans" are fully steeped in neo-Nazi edge lord talking points. Fuentes is the present and future of the GOP. After Trump, this is the new form of MAGA. The establishment isn't built for this fight.

I should’ve learned this by now but DO NOT use FedEx. The diseased monkeys I ordered haven’t arrived and I can’t get a straight answer on what happened to them

It is time to talk about what comes after Jamaica. Jamaica isn't very big but still passage over its complex terrain will take its toll on Melissa. Nevertheless all of NOAAs hurricane models predict that she will make landfall in E Cuba at or very near Major Hurricane intensity.

Eswatini is quite nice. It could’ve been worse, like that prison in El Salvador.

If I were him I’d try to find a place closer to Mozambique and enjoy warmer temperatures.

Trump’s ‘golden age’ economic message undercut by his desire for much lower interest rates – which typically signal a weak jobs market The push to slash rates, despite what Trump considers a ‘hot’ economy, underscores why it’s important the Fed relies on data – and not the wishes of politicians – when making decisions about monetary…

Trump claims the US economy is in a "golden age," yet pushes the #Fed for sharp interest rate cuts typically used to boost a weak economy.

That’s a weird contradiction, according to a macroeconomist: buff.ly/QaB0IPA

Family pets are being left behind at Southern California shelters as their families face deportation. At Carsom Animal Care Center, dogs like Bruce and Coco are quiet, confused, and up for adoption. Shelter staff say they've seen emotional goodbyes as families forced to leave the U.S.

I’d say that @stephencolbert.bsky.social is (with the lone exception of @maddow.msnbc.com) the most brilliant, humane person I’ve encountered in broadcasting. His mind works faster than anyone else’s at a level of sophistication that is unmatchable. Genuinely a generational talent.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.
