#OneHitHistory A day to remember New Orleans R&B singer/saxophonist Robert Parker, #BOTD in 1930. Parker earned US #OneHitWonder honors in 1966 when his self-penned “Barefootin’” spent 9 weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40 at #34, peaking at #7. #RobertParker #Barefootin #OneHitWondered

If Mike Johnson is refusing to call the House back into session during the shutdown, then we’ll do the work right here the Bronx.

The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake.

And that’s why we’re fighting back.

Only one thing could top the honor of speaking at the No Kings rally, and that's the honor of speaking at No Kings 2. See you October 18th!

Fox Propaganda is desperately spinning the "No Kings" events in fearful anticipation of their success.

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

The Faroe Islands locker room was quite rightly hyped after the territory of just 55,000 people stunned the Czech Republic 2-1 🥳

It’s their third straight World Cup win, arguably the biggest in their history, and leaves the Faroes one point off a World Cup play-off spot. Truly remarkable 🇫🇴
