I’ve been listening to these podcasts during my commute. I love hearing Susan and Beckett banter about these fascinating women of the past. Highly recommend.
What did you learn in history class? Wars? Dates? The achievements of remarkable men?
So did we. And that wasn’t good enough for us! Here at The History Chicks, our conversations have been spotlighting stories of remarkable women for 13 years. Choose from hundreds of podcast episodes and join us!

It’s been five days since floods in Texas killed at least 111 people and FEMA’s Acting Administrator David Richardson still hasn’t made a single public or internal statement.

What the heck?!
Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

Once again the correct response to this is to immediately push for a huge amnesty bill. If farm, hotel, and restaurant workers are so vital to the country that even donald trump can admit it, they should all be getting green cards now
NYT: New guidance yesterday from senior ICE official Tatum King to his underlings: "Effective today, please hold on all work site enforcement investigations/operations on agriculture (including aquaculture and meat packing plants), restaurants and operating hotels."

Let’s go folks.
Especially if you're on the fence about it, protest today. Fascism is isolating and lonely. Its very goal is to make you feel like you're the only person unwilling to accept a cult of personality. On days like today you fully realize there are more of us than there are them. You will feel better.

Thank you, Senator Booker.
I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

@rfk-junior.bsky.social When will you reschedule the ACIP meeting? We must have an influenza vaccine in the fall. This is unacceptable. People will die of influenza and it will be at your hands.

@kathyhochul.bsky.social your phone lines are full so I can’t leave a message today, as I have for the last several days. Please remove Mayor Adams from office immediately as he is unable to govern NYC and protect its citizens.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

That's right, isn't it? Kathy Hochul, who can be reached by phone at 1-518-474-8390 or messaged below, has the legal right under New York City's charter to remove Eric Adams, who is a fucking crook
