Gloria Steinem, groundbreaking feminist campaigner, dies aged 92
Famous for the 1963 exposé in which she worked as a Playboy Bunny, her books and journalism took on many varieties of discrimination

First Dolly, now Gloria. It’s been a sad two weeks, but we’re left with legacies of two icons who made real differences in the world. Their influences will remain for a long time to come. Godspeed, Ms. Steinem. www.theguardian.com/books/2026/s...

Trump suggested tonight that Iran could "take out" American cities:
"It's a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe. They can take out a city. Let them take— let it, let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay."

How is it not news when the president nods off in public meetings and press conferences dozens of times? If you follow independent media, you see it and know about it. But why hasn’t CBS, NBC or ABC showed a montage of it on their evening news? They simply refuse to ever show it.
