Zohran paid for nosebleeds, Eric Adams was handing out cash in envelopes and allegedly taking foreign bribes — guess which one the post has an issue with
🔥 SEN. @ossoff: “This war in Iran is the worst foreign policy blunder since Iraq. And just like the Iraq war, it’s a war built on lies. The ‘America first’ President who said he would end foreign wars, now he says all we can afford is war.”
Good on @RepRobertGarcia for working to bring accountability, oversight, and transparency to the Epstein Files as the Trump Admin continues to ignore Congress and hide them from the public!
@Nomansland3147@IlyaSomin That sounds like most big corporations, who also think they should vote and rule the world!
Not the working the class,
which are Right, Independent and Left and the corps couldn't do it without us!
June 10 · Center Point, Alabama
He showed up to work in his uniform on the day he was supposed to walk across a stage.
Timothy Harrison was 18 years old. It was graduation day at Woodlawn High School. And instead of getting ready with his classmates, he clocked into his shift at the Waffle House in Center Point, Alabama, because the cap and gown pickup had passed him by, and he had no ride to the ceremony, and at some point he had quietly decided that today just wasn't going to be his day.
His manager, Cedric Hampton, saw him walk in and stopped.
Timothy had the day off. Why was he here?
When Cedric heard the answer, he made a decision in about three seconds: not on my watch.
What happened next, in a Waffle House in Alabama, was something you don't forget.
Staff scrambled to track down a cap and gown. Coworkers passed around cash, for a dress shirt, a tie, pants, shoes. Customers sitting at the counter overheard what was happening and reached into their wallets without being asked. Within a few hours, Timothy Harrison was standing in that restaurant fully dressed for graduation, looking like someone who had planned this all along.
A coworker drove him across town. They arrived just in time. Timothy took his seat with his graduating class.
He walked.
After the story spread, Lawson State Community College offered him a full scholarship, a future that hadn't existed that morning when he'd quietly given up on his own day.
"I just came in to work. I wasn't expecting any of that."

Some people decide a moment is over. And then there are the people who refuse to let them.
Tag someone who would have been in that Waffle House passing the hat. 🎓
BREAKING: We're suing the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service over their plan to give away 715 acres of a public wildlife refuge to billionaire corporation Space X.
We shouldn't be sacrificing our cherished public lands to subsidize a company owned by the richest man in the world.
