Retired Navy Commander Bobby Jones on the part of Doris Miller’s story too many Americans were never taught: His heroism at Pearl Harbor should have earned him the Medal of Honor. Why didn’t it? “I’ll give you one guess. He was a Black man.” Now they want to take his name off an aircraft carrier

Dolly Parton spent a lifetime lifting people up through her music, her generosity, and her message of love and acceptance. Rest in peace, Dolly. ❤️

In a world full of the destructive kookiness of people like RFK Jr, strive to fill it with a little of the restorative kindness of Dolly Parton.

"We watched it on TV. And it's like, 'That's our son. That's Alex. And they killed him' ... trying to help someone" -- Alex Pretti's dad

Alex Pretti’s family is speaking out seven months after Trump’s CBP agents murdered him in Minneapolis. There’s been zero accountability or consequences for the men that shot Pretti, an innocent man who served his community as an ICU nurse for the VA.

NEWS: Two unvaccinated people in Pennsylvania have died from measles, according to state health officials. They are Pennsylvania’s first measles-related deaths in 35 years and the first reported measles deaths in the U.S. this year.

The deadly Cyclospora outbreak, it turns out, is just another Trump corruption story. A big donor gets a favor. And causes a massive public health crisis. Let me explain.

EXCLUSIVE: New Mexico’s entire congressional delegation is demanding answers from Pete Hegseth after Pentagon GPS jamming was linked to a deadly medical plane crash that killed four people.

I stand with Dr. Anthony Fauci …because I value EVIDENCE over conspiracy, DATA over rumors, and SCIENCE over politics. No public official is beyond criticism, but there’s a difference between honest scientific guidance and misinformation. I’ll choose evidence EVERY time. #medsky #publichealth

@ethankleinh3.bsky.social I'm watching Oliver's celebration of life. You had me fucking dying bro. He would have absolutely loved it

The Dodgers have become the official MLB team for fascism

Trump plans to long-term move troops into Washington, D.C. It appears they have now acquired long-term housing. The housing cost $292 million. Likely to assist him in trying to attain the third term he announced last night.

He's building the ballroom as a bunker fortress. We can't allow him to complete it, or that's where we are going to have to drag him out of, kicking and screaming, after who knows how much bloodshed

You’ve really gotta be committed to the lunacy to still be a Trump supporter…

We sent firefighting planes to drop water on burning homes in Los Angeles, and never sent the US a bill for it. Trump just announced he's charging us for the wind and accused us of "willful negligence" over wildfire smoke. Get fucked you fat orange pedophile. Sincerely, Canada.

The President of the United States is a liar.

Looks Like Cheating to Win an Election…..

lots of reporters suddenly worried about slipping into communism but strangely f*cking quiet about slipping into fascism

CAN'T MAKE IT UP: ICE deported a man to Mexico in violation of a court order in Nov., acknowledged the error and returned him to the U.S. Then they deported him to El Salvador, in violation of court-ordered torture protection. He's currently imprisoned. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I am always saying this.

this remains my favorite Obsidian feature

I'm really struggling with the whole Mitch McConnell thing. Like, is the whole democratic party so weak that not one will book a flight to walk into the hospital or hire a PI to determine if he's dead? Do we not have investigative journalists anymore? WTH is happening, and why is no one checking?

🚨 Rep. Ro Khanna calls for the arrests of Netanyahu and Putin: "The American president should arrest Netanyahu or Putin in accordance with international law. Full stop." "If the ICC has an arrest warrant for someone, they should be arrested by America if they come into American jurisdiction."

A second round of cyclospora and a new egg recall for salmonella. Weird how this suddenly starts happening when we roll back safety regulations and put idiots in charge.

@barackobama.bsky.social Had a dream I met you in real life last night! I was so excited!

The FOTUS is laying the groundwork to dismantle democracy on his own behalf. The most despicable, destructive, divisive individual we've ever encountered is determined to proclaim himself our King.

BREAKING: Donald Trump has reportedly been screaming at his staff for two days over his universally mocked speech on election fraud, and is accusing them of making him look like an idiot.

Our News Media needs to get it together….
