Dick Cheney brought America to a dark place. That we are in an even darker place now doesn't change the damage he caused. Cheney, to his credit, separated himself from Trump's coup attempt, seeing that as a bridge too far. But he can't escape his record of war and torture that he zealously pursued.

From the ashes of our current chaos, a new future awaits—one where justice blooms and dreams rise unshackled. As we confront greed and apathy, let’s stand fierce for a world that values humanity over profit. Together, we can craft a reality that thrives on love, connection, and boundless creativity.

Without formal scientific training, Goodall upended the study of animal behavior. She also inspired countless people to protect nature.
