That means Biden secured the release of 83% of all hostages — a fact you’d barely hear in the headlines. If anyone’s earned the title of “Peace President,” it’s #46 — not the guy bombing fishing boats in international waters and unleashing masked agents on Americans.

Reporter: Latino immigrants in Memphis who are legal residents are afraid to go to work

Gov. Bill Lee (dodges question): “If they’re not a criminal element, then they shouldn’t be afraid.”

As tone deaf as it gets when Trump’s ICE goons are assaulting legal residents & citizens

1. You wanna know what's interesting about Pepsi making this decision? Pepsi literally made its fortune off the backs of Black people. (short 🧵)

Both Pepsi & Coke were created in the late 19th century. But while Coca-Cola was going on to become America's drink, Pepsi was bankrupt in the 1920s.

Friendly reminder: "I was just following orders" didn't protect those who faced the Nuremberg trials who had once dragged crying women and children from their homes from the consequences of their actions.

It wasn't just Edward R Murrow that broke the spell. A REPUBLICAN Senator rose up and did the right thing! Where is that Republican TODAY! Who has the moral courage to stand up and do what's right! Remind yourself what she did 👇

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

It’s awful anyone gets shot—but let’s be clear: Charlie Kirk has spent years amplifying hate, racism, and conspiracy. Violence isn’t the answer, but neither is whitewashing the damage his rhetoric has done to America.

CBS still slaps itself on the back over this seminal moment.
But doesn't want any of its current reporters to behave like this.
They would probably be reprimanded or lose their job today.

CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it.

Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

Emanuel: China's basically found leverage; they're applying pressure, and they're doing it to soybean farmers. Our farmers have lost that market, are out a huge amount of money, and could see a lot of bankruptcies in the rural parts of the Midwest.
