Fasten your seatbelts. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.

French blogger Xavier Tytelman,during a visit to the museum of the National Library of France,showed a map of Europe from 1754:

"My God,doesn't it say 'Ukraine,land of the Cossacks'Look how far it stretches,very far.What do we have to the north?The Russian Empire or Moscovia?That's Mordor up north"

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

Love this story about one of today's Nobel winners, Mary Brunkow.

(She and colleague Fred Ramsdell, working at Celltech (RIP), uncovered the role of Foxp3 in the development of Tregs.)

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

No modern books will ever compare to the smell of books from the 1950s and 60s. I dare say even earlier. And the literature too, it's not the same as it is today. I prefer the much more refined English versions of fairy tales and ghost stories.

As the people who insist otherwise try to burn the country, it's important to affirm that immigrants, from everywhere, are awesome, and America is better the more immigrants we have. You have to be just empty and vapid and unimaginably small to reject that.
