BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional.
We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

Donald Trump would rather stop funding medical research, medical & food aid, education, food assistance, school lunch, Social Security than make the rich pay taxes. And that’s all you need to know about the convicted felon, charity thief, insurrectionist, fraudster.

Before Trump's WHO cutoff, who was funding the UN health organisation?
Following Trump's decision to withdraw the US funds from the WHO, a senior employee started a campaign to raise $1 billion. But which countries funded the organisation in 2024? #EuropeInMotion

Really wild how people continue to act like RFK Jr.’s problem is his remote history of heroin addiction in sustained recovery and not the fact that he’s a sociopathic, science denying, con artist, who wants kids to die so he can make a buck, which has nothing to do with him using heroin decades ago.
