Mural by JDL Street Art in Roubaix, Lille, France, depicting the Statue of Liberty covering her face with both hands in a gesture of shame. The figure is painted in shades of grey with teal accents on the torch and crown, set against a muted background with a golden halo-like circle. The artwork spans the side of a tall brick building, contrasting modern street art with historic European architecture in the surrounding cityscape.

I’ve said it before but reading all the medieval history books I’ve been reading lately has been so comforting. Makes you realize that there have always been mad and incompetent kings and they almost always die in ignominy and everyone piles shit on them for centuries after they’re gone.

😂😂 As a hobbyist of Roman history what you're saying is so true. The sequence of competence, followed by incompetent loons, followed by competence, followed by insane incompetent whack jobs, followed by competence is staggering. And the minting/destroying of coins/statues was big repeat business!

MAGA freaks out when a logo is changed, outraged, furious, hysteria! When there's a school shooting? Outrage over lax gun laws? Crickets. Celebration because shooter was marginalized, vulnerable, recently stripped of rights and protection? They're thrilled.

Two children were killed and seventeen people were injured in a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School. A Cracker Barrel logo change received far more scrutiny and attention than any fight against the epidemic of gun violence in this country. Our priorities remain idiotic.

Minnesota is heartbroken. From the officers responding, to the clergy and teachers providing comfort, to the hospital staff saving lives, we will get through this together. Hug your kids close.

What’s the gain - is the question? Trump had to offset budget allocations to pass his tax cuts, period. The accusations of waste - a lie. Accusations of DEI abuse - a lie.

Yes, but it’s the machine he’s installed, Vought who penned project 2025 now dir of the OMB, no doubt sending a daily memo of actions of destruction to Democracy Trump blindly executes, and his cabinet of cronies and the GOP just nod and laugh.

Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next. This is what dictatorship looks like.
