When Muhammad Ali knocked down Sonny Liston on May 25, 1965, a 22-year-old photographer named Neil Leifer was ringside. Decades later, the image he captured still has our attention. Leifer spoke about how it took on a life of its own.

Everyone should read this. "I’m contemplating the way AI and environmental devastation meet to assault our humanity. How they conspire to sell the lie that people and neighborhoods are replaceable by virtual doppelgangers, when they absolutely are not."

Must read from @sethwickersham.bsky.social that says a group that includes Bill Belichick, Matt Patricia, Michael Lombardi and Josh McDaniels concluded the Bears were “unlikely to consider Belichick” and expect them to target Ben Johnson.

Yesterday, senators voted to limit arm sales to Israel.

It failed. But by less than expected.

Read why "the closeness of Israel and the West is showing signs of cracking."
Bernie Sanders’ push to limit arms sales to Israel failed. But it shows Democrats are shifting.
Last night, Sen. Bernie Sanders brought a historic set of resolutions to the floor to stop $20 billion in arms sales to Israel. It failed—but not without a fight.

Below is testimony about how Israel killed three elderly sisters in their home in Gaza.

I’ve followed this man for years, and his wife and I are mutuals. They and their children lived in Gaza until the genocide began. They were displaced and now live in exile in another country.
