Happy birthday NATO, created 77 years ago today and astonishingly successful in light of a millennia of nonstop warfare in Europe until 1945.
Smart move in Seattle to protect workers cheated out of their pay, a growing and underappreciated problem I have reported about for a dozen years, including in my 2014 anthology DIVIDED: The Perils of Our Growing Inequality.

Human chains of Iranian women & children are on bridges and around electric power plants.

America may by tomorrow be a pariah nation.

One in six LA school children are homeless, LA Times reports.
Homelessness rose 28% in a single year to 61,250 kids out of nearly 400,000 now enrolled.

Oil hit $114 today as the number of drilling rigs fell to 543, down from almost 800 under Biden and an average of more than 1,500 under Obama.
Let that sink in as the “drill baby drill” president’s promise of $2 gasoline becomes a sad joke on the fools who believed Donald the master con artist.
The president of Young Republicans of Anchorage has been arrested on suspicion of child sex rape. Looks like a dozen victims.
Craig Scott Valdez, 36, is also chief of staff for a key Republican state lawmaker.
