trying to talk about Harpers Ferry without talking about slavery is jokes

like, slavery is the only reason why you know about Harpers Ferry. wouldn't be no Harpers Ferry National History Park _without_ that part of the nation's history, you revisionist shits
“The latest orders include removing information at Harpers Ferry National Historic Park in West Virginia, two people familiar with the matter said, where the abolitionist John Brown led a raid seeking to arm slaves for a revolt.”

Canadians are now labeling food with a “T” symbol if it’s American and impacted by tariffs. RIP American-made food sales.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.

What will you do?

People are dying because Trump illegally cut off foreign aid. He’s purging civil servants and law enforcement officers deemed insufficiently loyal. He unilaterally suspended Medicaid and froze trillions in funding. All of this is unlawful! And Democrats are … touting areas of bipartisan compromise?

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.

“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.
White House pauses all federal grants, sparking confusion
The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

Meals on Wheels America spox on OMB pause:

"the uncertainty right now is creating chaos for local Meals on Wheels providers not knowing whether they should be serving meals today. Which unfortunately means seniors will panic not knowing where their next meals will come from."
