In 1960, Ruby Bridges helped desegregate an all-white elementary school in New Orleans, escorted by federal marshals.
That little girl turns 72 today. Happy Birthday, Ruby Bridges. ♥️

Cranes are graceful and majestic creatures. Watching them not only delights us in their beauty and grace, but also makes us reflect on the wonders of nature.

A $3 @mta.info subway fare and some good Q train timing can buy you one hell of a view of the July 4th fireworks and the Brooklyn Bridge light show!
Huge shoutout to the train operator for slow rolling over the Manhattan Bridge and the conductor for announcing it.

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package:
Overturn Citizens United
Ban corporate PACs and super PACs
Ban members of Congress from trading stocks
Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.

For years CNN propagandist Jake Tapper spent his days attacking President Biden’s mental capacity and his age and now he’s attacking First Lady Jill Biden, but he’ll never attack the orange felon’s treasonous crimes nor his old age nor his racist lunacy. Jake is a disgrace.
