I’m honored to have captured these individual experiences and, hopefully, meaningfully contributed to strengthening our multiracial democracy 🙏🏾

This is indefensible: Spraying glyphosate over wild lands is ecocide, and toxic to humans, of course. But there is one upside: It allows us to see the full corruption of our system, which pretends to be preoccupied with our health, even as it poisons the world behind our backs.

22,000 gallons of jet fuel leaked from Joint Base Andrews into a Potomac tributary sometime this spring.

We still don’t know when it happened, or the extent of the damage.

Internal docs show that the base knew there were problems and didn’t report them. https://t.co/CHjP3GxngS

WATCH: APD cameras captured the wall collapse at Lindy's Diner in downtown Albuquerque! This is one week after the building was forced to close after an inspection found there were structural issues with the supports. The building is a little over 100 years old, built in1906.

Indiana residents are paying $600, $700, $800 a month in electric bills.

Indiana is being hit with some of the biggest rate increases in the U.S.

Data centers are driving up costs, BlackRock just bought one of the utilities, and people are demanding regulators step in.

The gap in my resume is from when darkness took me and I strayed out of thought and time. Stars wheeled overhead, and every day was as long as the life age of the earth. But it was not the end.

The Strokes used their Coachella set to show CIA coups and Gaza footage. They’ll probably never be invited back, and they knew it.

Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.

Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: https://t.co/rzM1P0QbOl

I want to enjoy moon pictures but I have to instead worry about Trump using a nuclear weapon

I used to write the @washingtonpost @PostOpinions editorials on US-Africa policy, as well on as human rights and politics on the continent.

To describe hundreds of thousands of deaths on the continent as “messy” is an absolute abomination.

Absolute bombshell on Fox News. An expert National Security Analyst confirms the Trump administration is completely purging the Pentagon. Pete Hegseth has fired over a dozen top generals, including the heads of the Navy and Air Force, right in the middle of a massive war.

I agree, I am seriously entertained by how unserious they have become. 💅🏾

ICE agents will be stationed outside graduation events for the nation’s newest Marines to identify whether any of their family members are undocumented, according to the Marine Corps.
