white elites were pressured to stop discriminating against black people for like 18 months and they are never going to get over it and they’re going to punish the rest of us for it for the rest of our lives

U.S. plans to stop recommending most childhood vaccines, defer to doctors
The plan, which is not finalized, suggests children get fewer shots and shifts to a model telling parents to consult doctors to make their own vaccine choices.

"The emergence of Witkoff as envoy to the Kremlin is partly a story of Putin maneuvering to nudge aside America’s diplomats and clasp hands with its billionaires." Because the billionaires lack experience, can be manipulated. and have obvious conflicts of interest.
Everything in this story is remarkable, besides this part:
"For three hours, Putin hosted Witkoff, who took notes as the president gave a lecture on the 1,000-year history of Russia"
They are so lucky that we are so stupid. Gullible. Unprofessional. Corrupt. Naive.

There’s room for somebody on the left to wrap themselves in the flag a little & make a point that the right’s rejection of America as a creedal nation—and their ad hoc, ahistorical effort to make it an ethnonationalist project instead—is distinctly *unamerican,* a rejection of the national project.
If immigrating from England makes you a "heritage American" then I guess I'm one too.

Yes, this is a real government ad…
“Are you a white male who has experienced discrimination at work based on your race or sex?”
In a country built on centuries of actual discrimination, the EEOC is using civil rights language to insulate white male mediocrity from competition.

The framing of this is misleading. They interviewed two survivors and one of them “said that she and other survivors hoped more would have been released Friday”.

not that the present economic picture is rosy, but i do think that popular culture — and specifically nostalgia bait television — is a big part of the reason that our public memory of the 1970s, 1980s and even 1990s seems to miss the real economic pain that marked each of those decades.

Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996.
The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.

Trump did not strengthen the arts or the Kennedy Center. He repeatedly sought to eliminate federal arts funding, politicized the Kennedy Center Honors, and fostered an environment that chilled artistic expression. Claims that he “saved” or rebuilt the Kennedy Center are demonstrably false.
