A son of sharecroppers, a Freedom Rider, a moral force in Congress, John Lewis taught us that democracy is not a state, it is an act. When we see injustice, we do not look away. We get in good trouble. And we build bridges despite adversity. Happy Heavenly Birthday, Congressman.

“For generations, sports was one of the few places where Americans could still gather around something bigger than ourselves. Now, that shared space is controlled by the house,” Joon Lee writes in a guest essay.
Check this out: After the shutdown, Trump’s approval fell.
The shutdown was and is bad in many ways. But this shows some important upsides.

Republicans are pushing debunked anti-abortion propaganda as an excuse to rip mifepristone off the shelves and block women from getting abortion care.
100+ studies prove mifepristone is safe and effective.
SPEAK UP, we can't let them get away with this.

The Naval Academy is on lockdown from a shooting, Charlie Kirk’s assassin is on the loose, Russia is launching drones into Poland, and Trump is at a Yankees game.

He's right, and it's not just Brazil.

Garnet fire burns into grove of giant sequoias; several behemoths are in flames.
The Trump Administration is once again failing to do its job — and California is cleaning up their mess.
We're deploying state resources to protect the 2,000-year old sequoias on FEDERAL LANDS from the wildfires the federal administration are supposed to handle.
"Harvard can't use race as a factor in admissions, but ICE can use race as a factor in detentions" is a retrenchment essentially to a pre-Civil War understanding of the Constitution. It's vanishingly few steps removed from "Latinos have no rights which the white man is bound to respect."
