"The Overton window in our politics is open for all these crazy ideas," says @SpeakerRyan, "but it's closed for things like debt reduction. So, our politics are just fundamentally unserious right now." https://t.co/UoKunXMzhg
Tonight, the Empire State Building tower lights will turn to a pink sparkle at 9:25 to honor the late Dolly Parton.
Dolly was a global cultural icon whose seven-decade career reached generations of fans. Beyond entertainment, Dolly leaves a significant philanthropic legacy through the Dollywood Foundation and Imagination Library, which has provided hundreds of millions of books to children worldwide.
At Nine-Two-Five tonight, we celebrate her and her legacy 💖
In 1988 Dolly Parton pulled every 7th and 8th grader in Sevier County into a room and told them to pick a buddy.
She made them sign a contract.. if BOTH graduate, she hands you both $500. One fails, nobody gets paid.
The county dropout rate went from 35% to 6%.
She handed out the checks herself.
In 1989 she offered $500 to every kid in the county who wanted to go to the local college.
When Gatlinburg burned in 2016, she sent 900 families $1,000 a month for six months.
You've probably heard that part.
Here's the part you haven't:
The fund raised more than expected, so she showed up in May and handed every one of those families another $5,000 on top.
Then she quietly put $3 million into the recovery group that handles the years after the news trucks leave.
She built her county an entire hospital.
She played a benefit concert in 2007, Dollywood and the Stampede matched it, and LeConte Medical Center opened in 2010 with a birthing unit and a women's center in it.
In 2022 she started covering 100% of tuition, books, and fees for Dollywood employees.
Full-time, part-time, AND seasonal.
In 1991 she paid for a bald eagle sanctuary because the birds couldn't be released back into the wild, no press release.
And when Hurricane Helene came through here in Western North Carolina, she wrote a personal check for $1 million and her companies matched it.
She didn't owe North Carolina anything, but she helped us anyway.
She started the Imagination Library because her daddy couldn't read or write. Before he passed, he told her it was the most important thing she ever did.
Rest in Peace, Dolly 🇺🇸
Greenwich Village never obeyed the grid—or much of anything else.
Rebels. Rock stars. Writers. Ghosts. And coal-fired pizza at John’s of Bleecker to finish.
This is the Village the guidebooks miss. Come walk it with us.

@LuisFeldNYPS Money isn’t our problem. Judge can still change games, he needs to be the DH so he doesn’t get hurt diving for balls. Building around Spencer and George, however, is the correct path. Dead.
Ever feel confused by financial jargon? There’s a word for that: BAFFLEGAB.
And the women behind Wall Street’s history didn't stop at calling out the nonsense—they literally built the city's skyline!
On our Women of Wall Street Walking Tour, you’ll uncover the untold stories of 12 unsung women who broke barriers, engineered landmarks, and shaped Lower Manhattan.
There might be guns and free love involved. Just sayin'

American victims and their families deserve justice not broken promises.
Congress must act now. #HR9795 keeps the USVSST Fund solvent and ensures victims and their families are never left behind. #Neverforget
The Victorian scandal the Hamilton family tried to erase from NYC history... 🤫
Robert Ray Hamilton got caught up in a wild scheme involving a secret marriage, a stolen baby, a stabbing, and a mysterious death in 1890. His family was so embarrassed they literally paid for a newspaper ad asking New Yorkers to forget he existed!
The city built his fountain anyway at 76th St & Riverside Drive 🗽

@SullyCNBC But Sully, how long before it all goes bust? As Americans we are accustomed to spending and indulging - but you guys know much of this spending is on credit. Your post implies that spending indicates the inflated prices are just fine. We all know this isn’t true.
Most people walk right past 82 Jane Street in Greenwich Village without knowing it’s where Alexander Hamilton spent his final 31 hours after his fatal 1804 duel with Aaron Burr.
The Bayard House is long gone, but the history is right beneath your feet. 🇺🇸
