Justin J. Pearson: “If the Republican Party is gonna be the party licking the boot of the billionaires who are taking our land, polluting our water, and taking our jobs, then let us be the party of the working class in rural, suburban, and urban America alike. If the Republican Party is gonna be the party of AI taking away our jobs, the party of corporate handouts and blank checks for foreign wars, let us be the party to deliver an increase to the minimum wage. Let us be the party to deliver universal healthcare”

Italy's PM Giorgia Meloni stressed the need for humanitarian aid in Gaza and condemned settler violence and Israeli settlement activity, later saying a two-state solution is the only path to 'lasting peace.'

Remember: it was like pulling teeth to get Republicans to fund the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund.

But it took them no time at all to create a $1.8 billion Insurrection Slush Fund to pay off the legal fees of the January 6th rioters who beat cops.

These are sick, corrupt people.

This type of comment reveals more than it lets on. Since I doubt Ivy League grads are going to be flocking to hotel housekeeping jobs, even at 6 figures, maybe this isn't the amazing steal of a job you're pretending it is? Maybe the drudgery & physical toll of cleaning has costs?

When Barack Obama entered the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park on May 27, 2016 — becoming the first sitting U.S. president to visit the city destroyed by the United States in August 1945 — the world focused on his speech. Cameras showed the wreath at the cenotaph. Headlines rightly emphasized the weight of the moment. But almost no one noticed a short, quiet Japanese man standing among the official delegation.
His name was Shigeaki Mori. He was eight years old on the day of the atomic bombing. By 2016, he was the only person who knew the names of all twelve Americans who died in Hiroshima — U.S. prisoners of war whom America had never fully accounted for.
Mori spent forty years finding them. Not for money. Not by order. Simply because he believed the dead should have names.
He was born in Hiroshima on March 29, 1937. On the morning of August 6, 1945, he was crossing a small bridge about 2.5 kilometers from the epicenter. The blast threw him into the stream below. Decades later, he recalled:
“I climbed out and saw a woman stumbling toward me. Her body was covered in blood, her organs hanging out. Holding them, she asked where the hospital was. I cried and ran away.”
He was eight. And there were no hospitals left.
Mori survived. He grew up in postwar Japan, worked ordinary jobs — in a brokerage, later at a piano factory — but dreamed of becoming a historian. He never got a formal degree. So he became one on weekends.
In the 1970s, a professor showed him a document: a list of twelve American airmen shot down over Japan in 1945. They were crew members of two B-24 bombers — Lonesome Lady and Taloa — captured and held in Hiroshima, just 400 meters from where the bomb exploded.
They died from their own country’s bomb.
For decades, their story was barely acknowledged. Families were told only: “missing, presumed dead.” No details. No truth.
Mori decided to find it.
Without funding or institutional support, he spent decades reconstructing their fate — comparing archives, tracking records, even locating surviving crew members. One by one, he restored their identities.
Then he wrote letters.
In broken English, he contacted families across the U.S. — often seventy years too late — explaining what had happened to their sons, brothers, husbands.
In 2008, he published his research, which eventually led the U.S. government to officially acknowledge the deaths of the twelve American POWs in Hiroshima.
In 2016, a documentary introduced his story to a wider audience. During Obama’s visit, Mori was invited to attend. In his speech, Obama mentioned the victims — including “twelve Americans held in captivity.”
For the first time, a sitting U.S. president publicly acknowledged them on Japanese soil.
After the speech, Obama approached Mori — a small, elderly man who bowed politely. Then, unexpectedly, the president opened his arms.
They embraced.
The image went around the world.
In 2018, at age 79, Mori visited the United States for the first time. He attended memorial events, spoke publicly, and finally met some of the families he had written to for decades.
When asked why he devoted his life to Americans who died beside him, Mori answered:
“My work was not about people from an enemy country. It was about human beings.”
Shigeaki Mori died in Hiroshima on March 14, 2026. He was 88 years old.

Civil Defence crews were finally able to access the site where Leb journalist Amal Khalil was trapped under rubble but only hours later. They retrieved her body. Her newspaper Al Akbar has put out a video tribute. Lebanon’s Minister of Information condemned the incident describing the targeting of journalists as a blatant violation of international humanitarian law and calling for international action.
