Pillar of Washington Post Fact Checker May 14 hit piece on Rev. Robert W. Lee IV falls as Rev. Lee did not tell Tulsa World he was directly descended from Charles Carter Lee A major hook of the @washingtonpost's May 14 piece on the ancestry of Rev. Robert Wright Lee IV,… (1/21)

Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

This morning’s deadly crash on I-95 near Quantico is absolutely horrific. Right now investigators say traffic was slowing for a work zone when a bus didn’t slow down and slammed into multiple vehicles • five people were killed, three others were critically injured, and 30+ more were hurt. Unimaginable. Thinking of the victims and their families. The cause remains under investigation. dcnewsnow.com/news/local-new…

Why is no one saying anything? Why is no one calling this administration out and standing up for our farmers and ranchers, our teachers, for every working Montanan across the state?

NEW: The GOP-led Georgia State Election Board hired Jason Frazier, a notorious election denier with a long history of controversy, to investigate voting processes across the state. Frazier was previously barred from serving on the Fulton County election board over his anti-voting record. democracydocket.com/news-alerts/ge…

🚨 Trump's pardons have allowed fraudsters to keep nearly $2 billion in stolen funds.

The USDA terminated a multi-million dollar grant meant to help farmers of color secure land. The Biden-era program was designed to addressed historic discrimination. 24 organizations joined a lawsuit suing the agency, demanding to reinstate the funds. capitalbnews.org/black-farmers-…

Trump might look like his grip on the GOP is firm but his recent actions suggest he is entering lame duck status, report @jonlemire & @michaelscherer theatlantic.com/politics/2026/…

@TheTNHoller @hasanthehun Don't understand why you are serving this to me. Hasan Piker?

WATCH: @hasanthehun says our loyalty should be to change and policies, not political parties, explains why “democratic socialism” resonates with many once they get past the fearmongering… and says the Democratic Party can be taken over by true working class fighters.

I'm sorry, am I reading this right? Nearly half the workforce at the office responsible for cleaning up the federal government’s nuclear sites is gone. The Trump Administration offered rounds of buyouts and 312 people walked out the door in a single year from an office that was already hundreds of employees short. These are MISSION CRITICAL positions handling contaminated soil, poisoned groundwater, and radioactive waste across the country. Nuclear engineering positions are now 55 percent vacant. The Department of Energy plans to hire 174 people next year. They lost more than twice that. They gutted the workforce keeping radioactive contamination in check and called it efficiency. The Department of Energy needs to address this. It is unacceptable. gao.gov/products/gao-2…

Holy shit this is amazing journalism. Stop what you're doing and read this.

@TheEagleyeNews @MARKAKEENE21 Lewis had no degree from any educational institution--not Liberty Hall Academy, which he did not attend, or any other--but was well educated.

@TheEagleyeNews @MARKAKEENE21 Thomas Jefferson also had Lewis study necessary scientific and other needed skills with scientists in Philadelphia before embarking on the famous expedition.

Folks, we must get the Lewis and Clark Argonath project to 2 MILLION impressions today! Let’s do this.

Al Green done dirty by GOP gerrymandering and the Democratic establishment. One of the few fighters who tried his best to loudly and publicly oppose Trump and call out his bullshit.

@Reuters Are you sure he was awake for that part?

Trump says he can outwait Iran, dismisses midterm election pressure reut.rs/4wVwXRV reut.rs/4wVwXRV

@hemantmehta @WajahatAli We're nominating Kamala Harris if she runs.

There are Democrats who worry AOC can’t be elected president because she’s a Latina woman. Or Pete Buttigieg because he’s gay. This is a helpful reminder that Republicans will go completely apeshit if you nominate a straight cis decent white guy too.

@greenegator01 @BigYash_609 Yet he didn't, instead Lincoln ended the War and led the nation to end slavery in law.

@BigYash_609 Abe Lincoln wanted to send blacks back to Africa. The same thing Robert e Lee wanted to do.

Abraham Lincoln called the recruitment of Black soldiers a decisive "heaviest blow yet dealt to the rebellion". He publicly credited their bravery, the use of Black troops, and emancipation as the ultimate tipping points that saved the Union and helped mankind advance.

@SpeakertoAnimal @RepDonBeyer @repdinatitus Robert E. Lee managed his wife's Arlington estate but was never an owner or heir of Arlington himself.

@RepDonBeyer @repdinatitus Are you saying Arlington National Cemetary is sacred ground because it once belonged to Democrat racist Robert E Lee. Go on! Let your true white sheet history out!

Arlington National Cemetery is sacred ground, the resting place for our heroes. Desecrating this hallowed space to build a monument to Trump’s ego is wrong, it would waste taxpayer money, and break the law. I'm introducing a bill with @repdinatitus and others to stop this:

@TheEagleyeNews @MARKAKEENE21 But he didn't really go to the school. There's no record or evidence of it. He was tutored at home by a trustee of the school.

@MARKAKEENE21 That's great! He was an American patriot! theeagleye.net/lewis-and-clar…

Here’s a photo of National Guard folks in my DC neighborhood huddling under an awning on Saturday to protect themselves from mist. They wander the streets in bored foursomes. Please let them go home to their families and communities.
