Christina Aguilera performed President Obama's favorite song at the Obama Presidential Center opening.

She said she'd never sung it publicly before and created a new arrangement specifically for the occasion.

Some invitations are hard to turn down.

[1976 Live @50YearsAgoLive]

Swedish pop group ABBA debut a new song in tribute to the royal wedding of Swedish King Carl XVI Gustaf and Silvia Sommerlath, to occur tomorrow.

The song is called “Dancing Queen,” and it is broadcast nationally on Swedish television.

🇱🇧🇮🇱 Asesinato en vivo de un periodista en Líbano

Un periodista fue asesinado en directo mientras transmitía las destrucciones causadas por Israel en el sur de Líbano.

Lo mataron mientras cumplía su trabajo: mostrarle al mundo la barbarie que está ocurriendo.

Israel no solo masacra civiles, también persigue y silencia sistemáticamente a los periodistas para ocultar sus crímenes.

Esto es terrorismo de Estado contra la verdad.

[Governor Maura Healey @MassGovernor]

Going after political opponents with the power of government is something Americans should never accept.

Trump’s attack on Governor Newsom is dangerous, reckless, and wrong.

En Los Ángeles (EEUU), una mujer celebraba la victoria de los Knicks en la NBA, cuando un vecino avisó a la policía por los ruidos... se presentaron 20 policías y fusilaron a su perro, un "peligroso" Golden Doodle, al abrir la puerta de casa.

EEUU, un régimen policial donde te fusilan al perro si chillas en tu casa demasiado alto... la policía no te protege, tú eres quién tiene que protegerse de la policía.

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “It was supposed to open Friday, it is not open because Trump says he does not want it open. When this bridge does open some day, if Trump ever lets it open, you should know that there is a competing bridge a little way down the river, a privately-owned very old very congested toll bridge that will likely LOSE some of its traffic…because of competition. It will lose some of its traffic to this pretty, brand new bridge that has just been built. The family that operates the competing old bridge, earlier this year, made a $1 million donation to Donald Trump’s super pac. In short order, a member of that family then got an in person meeting with Trump’s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. The White House and the pac say that was just a coincidence…but after the million dollar donation, he gets this meeting, and then the SAME day of the meeting, Howard Lutnick calls President Donald Trump and then Trump suddenly discovers new supposedly trade-related reasons why he’s now suddenly against this bridge, even though previously he has been for it.” 🤦‍♀️

This was the first and only time the Queen appeared in such a "cinematic" scene.

The Queen agreed to star alongside Daniel Craig as James Bond.

When Bond arrived to greet her at Buckingham Palace, the Queen's famous corgi dogs also appeared in the scene.

This moment quickly became one of the most talked-about Olympic opening ceremonies of all time.

The Queen was 86 years old at the time, but she was still willing to participate in such a surprising and humorous performance.

The director of the scene was Danny Boyle, an Oscar winner for Slumdog Millionaire.

🤬Russia has struck the grounds of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Ukraine’s most significant spiritual and cultural landmarks.

[Saint Javelin @saintjavelin]

Founded in 1051, this nearly 1,000-year-old monastery has survived centuries of wars, invasions, and empires. Today, it bears the scars of another Russian attack.

[Saint Javelin @saintjavelin]

Maybe it’s time to hit this place?!?

[Saint Javelin @saintjavelin]

When Notre-Dame burned in 2019, the world stopped.

Today, Russia damages Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a monastery nearly 1,000 years old and older than Notre-Dame itself.

A thousand years of history deserves the same attention, the same sympathy, and the same protection.
