During WW2, four brothers from a Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis. Only one of the four brothers survived.

His grandson is the current President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky a Hero!

If the market continues to trend down, and the Atlanta Fed turns out to be right, the midterms will be very interesting.

Sharing as a gift article re the story of Juan Benn Jr., who proudly wears his father's work shirt in honor & rmbr of his father, a KCS maintenance employee for 37 years. These are the people who deserve for us not to give up fighting on behalf of public education. Please share. ❤

Opinion | This man wears his father’s shirt. The reason gave me chills.
When you’re Black in elite spaces, you’re always bringing your family and ancestors with you.

Here's what the idiots in the White House utterly fail to comprehend. They and the US came out of that argument weaker. Zelensky came out stronger, with Europe rallying behind Ukraine more than before. They came out looking like petulant idiots; he came out looking like a leader with integrity.

A recent pre-print yet to be peer reviewed has been published that explores the very rare side effects of covid vaccine. It’s an important study but one that is quickly being weaponised. I wanted to try and clarify what this preprint does and does not say 🧪
The rare flip-side of the immunological coin: Post-vaccine syndrome (PVS).
Vaccines are transformational medicines at the population level, saving millions of lives over hundreds of years. However, any medicine can carry rare individual risks.

This is the kind of American we value – not Musk-Trump. Reinstate all federal workers. Now.
Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.

100% of his salary is paid by WA state.

Elon fired him. Share his story.

Everything that we warned the American public about regarding RFK Jr. is already happening.

An excerpt from an OpEd that @jimalwine.bsky.social and I published. We wrote about about what happened in Samoa with the measles outbreak there and said, simply:

“The same will happen here”.

Happy Public Schools Week!

As a former teacher, I know that public schools are not just where our kids go to learn - they’re the center of our communities.

That’s why I was proud to make the largest investment in public schools in state history.

This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this.

The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

The comments to this piece on social media make we realize a lot of my Tennessee neighbors have lost or abandoned their TN Volunteer spirit. It breaks my heart. "Y'all means ALL."🧡
