My father, father in law, all my uncles and an aunt served in the military in WWII, and a cousin served in the Middle East. Thank you, all. And thank you to everyone who has served in defense of our nation. #VeteransDay2020

🚨 30 Heroes in 30 Days — countdown spirit to July 4!
Major Richard “Dick” Winters
Leader of Easy Company, 101st Airborne. On D-Day he led a daring assault on a German artillery battery at Brecourt Manor with just 13 men — the Germans had over 60. It’s still studied at West Point today.
Through the frozen hell of Bastogne and into Germany, he led with quiet competence and unbreakable resolve. Never sought glory, just did his duty, and is perhaps the embodiment of the “Quiet Heroes” who are the backbone of America. He came to fame after Stephen Ambrose “Band of Brothers” was released and then turned into a critically acclaimed miniseries.
He later was asked if he was a hero and he replied: “No. But I served in a company of heroes.”
True American leadership and quiet determination. 🇺🇸

Before you celebrate the decline of coal, think about the wonderful families who live in coal country. Their ancestors helped build our great nation.

[Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse]

Bye-bye coal — solar tops coal in U.S., and more to come. Clean costs less.

REP. BRANDON GILL: This is a much more effeminate version of Beto O'Rourke ... this is somebody who is really obsessed with children ... I think of James Talarico as a barely straight version of Pete Buttigieg

KAYLEIGH McENANY: We know Talarico has a longtime girlfriend and she's very beautiful

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

This is not a joke.

This is actually the reflecting Pool in Washington DC today.

Donald Trump wasted $10 million of our money on this.

No wonder why he bankrupted multiple casinos.

We’re not a serious country anymore

Love that movie! It came out shortly after my (new) wife and I moved from Pennsylvania to the Chicago area. It was a beautiful taste of home and made us a little bit homesick. That barn-raising scene… and the score!

Have a great summer, Coach! @CouncilRockSD

We're south Jersey shore people !!! Gotta admit north Jersey shore Bradley Beach area is really nice !

This gentleman and Sen. John McCain were two elected leaders I admired tremendously. There are too few people of that quality in #Congress today. We voters need to be smarter.

What one word best describes Trump’s war with Iran? My choice is FIASCO. What’s yours?

[Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse]

White House: “angry, insular, grievance-driven”;

Sending “a middle finger to Congress”;

From a president who is “like really, really angry.”

Plus, he’s tanking.

Recipe for a meltdown.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Lindsey Graham, in his victory speech:

“I want to thank the big guy. God. Trump comes later. Mr. President, you’re not far behind God.”

This guy is the worst.

“You know what I really love? I love the inflation.”

[La Sagrada Família @sagradafamilia]

10th June 2026. The #SagradaFamília will experience a historic day.
Coinciding with the centenary of Antoni Gaudí’s death, a universal figure in modern architecture and creator of a unique architectural language, we pay tribute to his legacy.
One hundred years after his death, the Sagrada Família will celebrate a solemn mass presided over by Pope Leo XIV and, subsequently, the blessing and inauguration of the tower of Jesus Christ, one of the great milestones of the project conceived by Gaudí.
📲 Follow it live on our social media channels starting at 7:45 p.m.

[Ed Tate @edwardtate]

Our family will always cherish our visit to Sagrada Familia… among the most inspirational places in the world, more beautiful than photos can show.

[Jeremy Wayne Tate @JeremyTate41]

144 years of construction. One vision.

Tomorrow, the Tower of Jesus is inaugurated, and the cross finally rises above Barcelona.

A CROSS IN THE SKY OF BARCELONA.
History. Faith. Beauty. All eyes on the cross.

[CNN @CNN]

Delayed by wars, politics and funding shortfalls, Sagrada Família's imposing but unfinished presence has dominated Barcelona's skyline for decades.

Now, the long-awaited final tower is, at last, ready for its inauguration, marking 100 years since the death of the church's visionary architect, Antoni Gaudí. https://t.co/vb8rzuID29

Really? This can’t be…

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

OMFG!

Trump literally just celebrated a massive increase in our trade deficit.

He doesn’t even know what a “widening of our trade deficit” means. He thinks it means that we are exporting more than we’re importing, which would be good, but it means the exact opposite.

@BlumbergInstit1 Prof. Ying-Hsiu Su, PhD, helped lead this valuable study. #hepb #hepatitisb #liverdisease

In a newly published study, researchers examined how integrated hepatitis B virus DNA differs between HBeAg-positive and HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B patients.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

A UAE investor secretly gave Trump $187 million and his top Middle East envoy $31 million. And then Trump gave that investor access to sensitive defense technology that broke decades of national security precedent.

Brazen, open corruption. And we shouldn't pretend it's normal.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Rep. Nancy Mace says Trump didn’t endorse her in South Carolina’s gubernatorial race because she pushed for the release of the Epstein files.

Just a reminder: Trump’s DOJ still hasn’t released all the Epstein files
