For what it's worth Jacob Lawrence was a huge fan of libraries and made many images of them over the years. I love his 1979 screenprint "The Library" for featuring a library worker in the foreground, pushing a cart full of books

The Erasure Administration.
That is both messed up and disgraceful! You can’t just delete history!
Arlington National Cemetery has removed information about prominent Black, Hispanic, and female service members, as well as topics such as the Civil War, from its website.

Listen to the women.
Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer.
"Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

Robert Morris, the former Texas megachurch pastor and Trump spiritual adviser, has been indicted on child sex crimes.
"After almost 43 years, the law has finally caught up with Robert Morris for the horrific crimes he committed against me as a child," his alleged victim told me.

AI failures in hospitals.
Oh.
AI models in hospitals miss 66% of patient injuries, failing to detect worsening health. A study urges integrating medical expertise, as 65% of US hospitals rely on these systems for patient care. 🩺💻

Very scary.
Over in the other place, I see that "everyone should get nukes" is back as an argument.
This is a bad solution to America's collapse as an ally. Build up conventional forces. Nukes are not the magical answer.

Trump is STILL - RIGHT NOW - tweeting about Tesla. He's spent more time protecting the richest man in the world's profits than he has protecting healthcare, education, jobs, or veterans in the last 6 weeks as president.
