On Memorial Day, we remember the sacrifices that our men and women in uniform and their families have made to preserve our freedom. May we always strive to honor the strength and resolve they’ve shown our country.

In 1779, during the Revolutionary War, John Paul Jones was outgunned, surrounded, and sinking when the British called on him to surrender.

He basically said “no, go fuck yourselves, you fucking assholes.”

Memorial Day is about honoring those who gave their “last full measure of devotion” to our country. So if you’re enjoying a day off from work, take some time to remember all those who have fought for our country, especially those who lost their lives.

😠 JFC on a pogo stick, what an absolute POS.
Twice, I've posted about Memorial Day - about the effects living veterans have as they navigate loss amongst the Happy Memorial Day wishes & about the traditions of remembrance kept at the grave sites.

Then...there's this moron who isn't worth a single button from one American uniform.

Red buttons, stones, or glass are often left as a symbol of someone having visited without military affiliation to the deceased.

What do the coins mean?
A penny: A veteran visited.
A nickel: The visitor was in basic with them.
A dime: The visitor served with them in some direct capacity.
A quarter: The visitor was with them when they passed.
The coins should remain undisturbed.

THREAD. When my parents' cat Bridget went missing, my dad, to try to ease his worry, painted her on a variety of historical ventures. Soon, these numbered in the dozens.

It's people wearing suits & congressional pins.

Not in some random alley, wrapped in darkness. But in the United States congress, wrapped in the flag.

Bastards.
Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:

—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

Read it.

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them
Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

As long as Donald Trump desecrates and defiles the White House with his despicable presence, there should be massive protests at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue — every damn day.

I really think a lot of this could have been avoided if we had compulsory international service for a year after high school - like army style, but “get the fuck out of the country Timmy and eat them apples for a while”

If you want a real gut punch in the midst of all of this, watch Saving Private Ryan again.

The final “earn this” scene is even more devastating now that 77.3 million Americans have voted to flush EVERYTHING that our grandparents generation fought for 80 years ago down the drain.

FOUR Democrats voted for voter suppression and to gut women’s rights, among other things. If these are your representatives, call and tell them exactly how they are betraying their constituents.
Crazy that four dems voted for the save act...
Voter suppression.

Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...
A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data
A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.
