Imagine Trump ever being invited to join a photo like this — not in a million years.
Four presidents. Zero drama. Just smiles, respect, and a shared love of country. 🇺🇸
On June 19, 1865, African American communities in Galveston, Texas, finally learned of their freedom from slavery — two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation took effect.
For 161 years, Juneteenth has been a day of remembrance for the freedom that was delayed. It is also a celebration of the joy and resilience that flourished despite that delay.
The contributions of African Americans, whose struggle for freedom shaped our nation, are immeasurable. Yet too many Black families continue to bear the brunt of an affordability crisis that has pushed them out of the neighborhoods and communities they've built.
True freedom has a tangible impact on daily life: the ability to afford housing, earn a living wage, put food on the table, support a family, and create a future for generations to come.
As we celebrate today, we must recommit ourselves to ensuring this freedom is fully realized.
Happy Juneteenth, New York City.
Respect to the Knicks… but San Antonio is losing the finals themselves.
Game 1: Blew a 14 point lead in 3rd
Game 2: Bad turnover with 8 seconds left
Game 3: Won
Game 4: Blew a 29 point lead
This has to be the biggest playoff choke of all time.
Dylan Harper on the Cavs 3-1 comeback 10 years ago:
"I definitely watched it. That was probably a series to remember. They're the only team to ever do it. My biggest takeaway was the performances, obviously Lebron and Kyrie, that they put on just to have that comeback. That was probably the latest series that I remember"

I’m with ya Bro, sometimes you gotta do what cha gotta do. Then they’ll leave you alone. For me you’ve passed the test the league gives you. Congrats!!!
Now win the series like I know you can. Let them know how it’s done. Mr October
Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.
The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.
“I feel that if we don't take seriously the ways in which racism is embedded in structures of institutions, if we assume that there must be an identifiable racist who is the perpetrator, then we won't ever succeed in eradicating racism.”

This is why those of us who cover Wemby love him. Weighs in on the 65 game rule, asks others their opinion, and does math better than David Robinson or Manu. Seriously.
God does not bless any conflict. Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs. Military action will not create space for freedom or times of #Peace, which comes only from the patient promotion of coexistence and dialogue among peoples.
Please take the time to hear the brave words of a person who witnessed ICE agents shoot and kill Alex Pretti in broad daylight.
Everyone involved deserves justice.
I just left the Venezuela briefing.
It's worse than you thought.
Oil company executives seem to know more about Trump's secret plan to "run" Venezuela than the American people.
We need public Senate hearings NOW.
Let's be real. That was a playoff atmosphere against the mf Warriors
This will pay dividends for our young guys in the future
We forget Wemby and Castle are 21 years old and are still learning, but I promise y'all these two will lead us to a dynasty
