Every year, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.
They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.
France also gave us this land as American soil. #MemorialDayWeekend
Just one day after ending "The Late Show" on CBS, Stephen Colbert returned to TV — to host a public access show with rocker Jack White in Monroe, Michigan.
Appearances by Jeff Daniels, Eminem and Steve Buscemi.
This is bigger than Democrats versus Republicans.
For many of us in South Carolina and across the South, this is personal.
It's about the sacrifices our parents and grandparents made so we could finally have a voice.
Now that voice is being divided and diminished for political power.
Watch.
Share.
Speak out.
We cannot go back.

Kenny Jary, known to the world as Patriotic Kenny, embodied the spirit of our TikTok community. He brought pure joy, a passion for service, and a genuine love for everyone around him. When his mobility scooter broke down, Kenny turned a personal challenge into a nationwide movement: launching the Patriotic Kenny Foundation to fulfill the mobility needs of veterans across the country. We send our condolences to his family and loved ones, and all those inspired by his extraordinary legacy.

Janeese Lewis George is my DC City Councilwoman. She does absolutely nothing. She never shows up. She never gets anything done. I've never once seen her in my neighborhood. I ranked her last on my Mayor ballot. I'm with @kenyanmcduffie.
The DC mayoral race boils down to rooted residents, who support Kenyan McDuffie, vs newcomers, who favor Janeese Lewis George. @CityCast_DC poll shows that Nats and Commanders fans are for McDuffie; fans of out of town teams for JLG

A very timely twist to this: McDuffie is out in front of the Navy Yard Chipotle slamming JLG’s approach to curfews, calls her new youth investments insufficient.
This guy threw a keg through the front window of Georgetown cupcake last night at around 11pm. Workers were in the store when it happened https://t.co/VfIiKXO0XN
Accountability and opportunity must go hand in hand. Janeese Lewis George voted against giving DC a curfew tool to respond to youth gatherings that have, at times, erupted into violence. And when the Council had the opportunity to extend rec center hours, she shut it down, choosing politics over our youth.
As Mayor, I won’t tolerate this kind of disorder, and I’ll make sure our young people have safe, constructive places to go.
Breaking: D.C.’s restaurant association @RAMWdc is jumping into the city’s contentious mayoral race and backing @kenyanmcduffie — marking its first endorsement in years.
RAMW also endorsed Brooke Pinto for delegate, AG Brian Schwalb, Phil Mendelson, Doni Crawford, Charles Allen.
