Re: National, Regional and Local News
Thanks for posting that, Amie. It grieves me to know that, 6 months from now, some multi-billion dollar company will probably start building an oil pipeline directly over their graves--just because it can and just because it would be massively disrespectful.

Re: National, Regional and Local News
This made me cry, literally.
It is at once so beautiful, and so tragic.

Re: National, Regional and Local News
This was lovely. Thank you for posting.
But I'm still bitter and they are not forgiven for this. This country is so very embarrassing on every level where my ancestors are concerned.

Re: National, Regional and Local News
This is why they're trying outlaw teaching of history that doesn't jibe with what they want to think of themselves. There's a long thread on Twitter about what they're doing in Texas. I'll see if I can find it again.

Here in NYC there's an air quality alert due to the smoke from this fire. The current level is 158 and it's 87 degrees Fahrenheit.

Re: National, Regional and Local News
What can "the proper" policies to restrain a violent person can be? Sincerely curious.
Flying keeps getting to be more and more of a nightmare. All the security processes and then, you can still have an a**hole in the plane.
BTW. Why is this only happening in the USA? Or have there been reported instances in other countries.

It's not an excuse by any stretch of the imagination... But that guy was drunk off his gourd. I mean, well done on both sides.
The saddest part is that he allegedly sexually assaulted two flight attendants. But it's the flight attendants who get it trouble because they taped him to his seat. Now tell me... Who REALLY suffered here?

Re: National, Regional and Local News
I was wondering why Nicole Wallace was sitting in for Rachel. Now It makes a bit of sense. If Rachel wants to play games MSNBC is letting her know its good at it too.
