Mother’s Day was first conceived of by abolitionist Julia Ward Howe – it was a protest promoting peace and justice.
Use your Mother’s Day as a call to action (and give the mom in your life what she really wants: a night by herself in a hotel).

This is the worst one. I've seen lots of bad RFK videos but this is the worst.
I don't know what is more awful, the fact that the guy who might run HHS is casually talking about his belief in eugenics or that he won't look her in the eye when he pitches this racist madness

If the FAA director got fired over a business beef AND there was an air traffic controller hiring freeze despite huge shortages AND a chaotic blitz to hollow out federal bureaucracy, and then within a week the first American airliner crashes in 16 years, you would be insane not to talk about it all.
