If 3 Black Boys went on a boating trip and came back without their white friend and said they had no idea where he was, but they had his cell phone, there was evidence they were arguing, and they deleted all of their social media……They would’ve been arrested already #NolanWells
Yesterday Jaylen Brown said that although he’s no longer a Celtic, he will still work with the Boston community through his foundations:
“I’ve invested my own money into the city. I’ve put millions of dollars into Boston and still will continue to.”

Two hundred and fifty years ago, a group of Americans signed their names to a piece of parchment and made a promise no nation had ever made before: that we're all created equal, endowed by our Creator with unalienable rights — life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
We're the only nation in history built not on ethnicity, or blood, or geography but on an idea. That's always been what makes us exceptional. We chose that path 250 years ago but that’s where the work began, not where it ended. Every generation has had to choose it again. At Valley Forge, at Gettysburg, on the beaches of Normandy, in the streets of Selma. Americans recommitted themselves to the principles on which our nation was founded.
Now it's our turn.
There's nothing guaranteed about our democracy. We have to fight for it, defend it, and earn it. Over and over, year after year. That's not a burden. That's what it means to be an American.
250 years in, we still haven't fully lived up to those words in the Declaration. But we've never walked away from them, and this July 4, I hope all of us can commit to one thing: that we never will. I don't believe we're as divided as we're told we are. I've bet my whole life on the American people, and I'm not stopping now.
Happy 250th birthday, America. Our story isn't finished. Let's keep writing it together.
FYI: The biggest celebration of America’s 250th anniversary may end up being the opening of the Obama Presidential Library.
A quarter millennium after the nation’s founding, the first Black president’s legacy will have a permanent home on Chicago’s South Side.
History has a way of picking its own milestones. 🇺🇸
I mean I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed but even I know if The Pope is calling you out then you might be the problem & quite literally no one else.
BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV on Trump’s warning to Iran of “civilization” destruction —
“This is truly not acceptable. Here there are certainly questions of international law, but even more than this a question of morality for the good of people.”
He adds the war is “continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything… is only provoking more hatred throughout the world.”
“attacks on civilian infrastructure are against international law, but it is also against sign of the hatred and division that we are capable of.”

🚨 MAJOR NEWS: Pope Leo XIV just declared the Iran War unjust.
Called it a war crime. Said it is “not solving anything.”
And told Americans directly — call Congress.
End this war.
