Newsvine was my favorite site. Now Bluesky is.

Disgraceful.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Out of many, one.

I listened to Mamdani, and to Spanberger, and to Sherrill and I heard things with which I agree. And there are things I my not agree with. As a Democrat, I know that inclusion breeds political power and exclusion breeds political impotency. So, I hope that all three succeed. 1/2

It's been reported that after promising to bring prices down last election and then seeing his policies make prices skyrocket, Resident Rump has finally vowed to focus on affordability.

In related news, the 79 year old Rump has decided to name his next daughter, Epiphany.

Resident Rump is determined to make VA a solid Blue state. What states are next?

Life during wartime. Chicago is now occupied territory.
This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

The message for the next three years is NO KINGS!
Donald Trump is trying to bully us into silence. He’s abusing his power to create a censorship state.

But tomorrow voters in New Jersey, Virginia and all across the nation will show up and make clear - we will not be ruled. The people are still in charge.

I’m just going to say it…

It’s pretty damn validating to hear Barack Obama say the same things we’ve been shouting for months, and longer.

Why are we doing this to ourselves? We’re allowing huge data centers to be built that use city size chunks of electricity and water that will drive up prices for both and eliminate jobs. And don’t we see enough disinformation without it being so convincing?

I've heard that other corporations are helping keep people alive with free food. I visit a Taco John's when I'm in the area. Please help these good businesses help others by supporting them with your business. Taco John's has good food and good service too. ❤
