Una mujer trabajaba sola, con frío y nieve. Un hombre pasó, lo notó y ayudó. Sin cámaras ni aplausos. Así se construyen comunidades y así luce el liderazgo real: conciencia, compasión y acción. La bondad sigue siendo contagiosa. Que nos acompañe en 2026.

Jim Jordan was really scared on Jan. 6 after being in contact with the White House, Mark Meadows told Jack Smith’s team.
This comes out in testimony before Jordan’s own committee, which Jordan initially chose not to make public and then decided to release in the final hours of 2025.

In 2025, Kilmar Abrego García became the face of resilience in the face of injustice for our brothers and sisters in the Hispanic community.
Today, he is free to sing to his God from his unbroken spirit.
Let us go into 2026 filled with hope and courage, knowing that we, too, shall overcome. 💙

“You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman" was written by the legendary songwriting duo Carole King and Gerry Goffin
Aretha Franklin made it famous in 1967
OBAMA in Tears 😭
B.B. King once said that hearing Aretha sing was like watching a "river of emotion" flow through a human body.

These monks are not walking 2,300 miles from Fort Worth, Texas to Washington, D.C. just for peace. They are walking against the normalization of barbarism and cruelty in America. Nobody has to say who is responsible. EVERYONE KNOWS. 🙌🙏🫶

Smith: We had also interviewed Boris Epshteyn… He corroborated that they were, in fact, trying to call senators. He dissembled and tried to imply that the president hadn’t directed him to do it, even though there was a text message saying specifically that they had.

What the KENNEDY Center used to be…
Remember that time Aretha Franklin performed at the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors, paying tribute to Carole King, who co-wrote “You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman,” and it brought a tear to Obama’s eye and everyone to their feet? And Carole King’s reaction. Wow.
