A 63 year old guy from NJ who still can't believe what this country has become. At least we still have baseball.

28 years of cyclosporiasis testing Screwworms eradicated in the US in 1966. Measles eradicated in the US in 2000. All are back because of this science denying administration.

That pathetic $14.2M "American blue" paint job peeled off damp concrete instantly, so naturally, officials are crying "box-cutter saboteurs." No cuts exist—just total incompetence and a toxic algae bloom. Now taxpayers get bled dry again to fix their botched, rushed mess. Pure fraud.

For most of us, seeing the Klan 2.0, a.k.a. Patriot Front, march through Washington, D.C., unchallenged by authorities overshadowed any celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. My ancestors lived through this. And no one today can say with a straight face that racism is behind us.

PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”

In front of fans and kids taking photos, a Dallas police officer starts shoving staff members of the Egyptian national team here for the World Cup. At one point, he even reaches for his handcuffs. The video is already being shared internationally by news outlets.

Bluesky launched in February 2023 as an invite-only platform. As of June 2026, we have 45 million users. For reference, that's almost the population of Argentina. Thank you for being here with us 💙 Here’s to the next 45 million accounts.

The planet isn't dying. It is being murdered. By greed, pollution, deforestation, plastic, oil, and endless consumption. We call it development, yet forests are vanishing. We call it progress, yet rivers are turning toxic. We call it business, yet the air is turning into poison.
