America is an amalgamation of cultures. Any reference to "Defend your culture" in terms of public policy is outright nazi speak.
American culture is all culture, and the right to express it.

Eleven more libraries will reopen on Sundays, thanks to the leadership of the City Council. They never should've been closed in the first place.
As Mayor, I'll end this absurd budget dance that keeps our beloved libraries in limbo year after year.

Berman: Was the President right about the polling?
Enten: No. If we are comparing him to other presidents at this point in their presidencies, he is the second lowest on record compared only to himself.

Ghislaine Maxwell—convicted child sex trafficker and Epstein’s enabler-in-chief—is being quietly moved to a cushier, lower-security prison in Texas. No explanation. No accountability. This isn’t justice. It’s privilege wrapped in bureaucracy, and it reeks of special treatment for the elite.
