She lived a full life without regret and leaves behind a beautiful legacy. Thank you for everything, Tina Turner. You are simply the best.

Tina Turner on Larry King Live in 1997 on why she decided to leave the United States for good, establishing her home in Europe. By 2013, after living in Switzerland for 20 years she renounced US citizenship. Black Americans expatriating isn’t new, especially throughout the 1900s.

@Jesusisking7422 @krassenstein @Bill43111 When there is actual evidence that will hold up in court, not just random internet disinformation along the lines of “..a lot of people say”.
Same reason why Trump lost his 60+ cases challenging the election, BS spewed on TV does not stand up in a court of law!

54 years ago today—May 14, 1969—was the last day on which a majority of #SCOTUS Justices had been appointed by Democratic presidents.

The next 11 appointments, 13 of the next 15, and 16 of the 21 to happen since the day Justice Fortas resigned have been by Republican presidents.

Honestly, I do not know what red states are gonna do. Who will deliver babies in your state? You are already seeing a decline in residency applications for ob-gyn spots. Here's the rub, med students get engaged and marry who they meet in their bubble. I did. /1

@kellymccartneyx I’m sure pathological leads are not very well regarded in prison as well.

"No publicly traded company would consider naming Trump to an executive position... None of his billionaire friends would trust him with their money." He couldn't work in a school or a lawfirm. And yet we might elect him president, @SykesCharlie writes: https://t.co/oUQs8gTkbt

This is the Baltic Way. On 23 August 1989, two million people joined their hands to form a human chain spanning 675.5 km across the three Baltic States of Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia. The protest was against Soviet oppression, and to support the independence movements of the three States and their desire to escape communism.

@DavidLeftwich68 I saw the reporting and all the people posting they did not ask for the check-mark 🤦🏻

[Palmer Report @PalmerReport]

The judge in the E. Jean Carroll case is now threatening Trump with unspecified punishment if he keeps making inappropriate social media posts about the trial. You do not piss off the judge in your own trial. Trump is in the “find out” phase in more ways than one.

At 91 years old, retirement isn’t on Lou Kokonis’ radar.

He is in his 65th year of teaching math at Alexandria City High School in Northern Virginia — and says he is looking toward the future: “I’m going to try to come next year, if they'll take me.”

Last year, a coworker randomly asked me to hand-deliver an antique violin across the country. I said yes, because why not. I had no idea what I was getting into, and now I need your help. A 🧵

New York Rangers captain Jacob Trouba presented longtime fan Isaiah with a full scholarship to law school.

Isaiah, a survivor of the Sandy Hook school shooting in 2012, also got to exchange phone numbers with Trouba. ❤️💙

Two former Directors of National Intelligence testified today in two separate federal grand jury investigations into the former president for espionage and an attempted coup.

Just like... sit with that sentence for a minute.
