I don't think that's a "wow" that he was impressed with Crystal Palace, but a "wow" that he was not impressed with Liverpool

Let America Be America Again Let America be America again.

I was born here and I share these sentiments. America is beautiful and wonderful when it lives up to its ideals. Too often it falls short. And now, it seems to be striving for something different.

My favorite poem, hangs on my wall. Let America Be America Again. poets.org/poem/let-ame...

7 months out from the midterms, here it comes - scare the fuck out of the GOP base by blaming brown & black immigrants for everything. It’s their major go-to.

I would be in favor of putting the onus of health insurance, day care, and other social issues on the states. But, i would want also to return the police power to the states. Abolish ICE. Abolish DHS. Change the FBI into an advisory group similar to the CDC. I would make that trade.

Elected king theory. That's what the unitarian executive theory is. It's simply elected kings.

Oral vaccine cuts up to 80.6% of E.coli-triggered diarrhoea cases The oral ETEC vaccine will now enter a pivotal Phase III trial across different countries and populations.

This could be a game changer!!

Diarrhea is global health's least sexy challenge, but it remains a top killer of children.

E.coli is present in 98% of water sources in Guatemala, for example, and systematic water purification is incredibly challenging for low-resourced contexts.

My daughter (15) solved the Typhoid Mary problem. When I told her the history and eventual intervention she simply asked,

"Why didn't they just pay her not to cook?"

I had never thought of that solution nor heard that solution in all my years of teaching.

A viral dog rescue from 2016 is now immortalized with a statue in Kazakhstan. When a dog fell into the Sayran reservoir, bystanders formed a human chain to pull him to safety. The statue is a reminder of the value of unity, solidarity and collective action. 14/10 for all

One of the many reasons ICE needs to be abolished. We all want folks to follow the law. That applies to government agencies most of all. Can you imagine being deported while following the law? That is what is happening.

Let me be clear: claims of widespread noncitizen voting are false. Incidents of noncitizens actually voting are so rare that when Utah conducted a full investigation, it found none. Zero.

The Trump administration could really restore confidence by getting the entire Cabinet to ride a tanker through the Straits of Hormuz to show everyone how safe and easy it is now.

They could bring along a lot of MAGA influencers and Fox News hosts to broadcast it all live!

Did he want to sell him though? I'm not sure. The Saudis, yes appear to be discarding him. What a shame.

I wonder if Klopp could have gotten Nunez's head right. He kept hoping he would have a Suarez-like evolution.

I'd put selling Harvey Elliott and Darwin Nunez squarely on Slot's shoulders. He wouldn't play them last season. Luis Diaz - would he have stayed if he was being played in his preferred left wing position? Trent - would he have stayed if he had more confidence in the manager?

If you'd watched the match you would have seen a Liverpool side that played well and could have easily scored a few goals with a bit more luck.

The closing of African American Studies and GWSS at Iowa is absolutely heartbreaking. It is such an important time to study these subjects. Words really cannot express how upsetting this decision is. www.thegazette.com/higher-educa...

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF
