Democratic Gov. Wes Moore after being blocked from speaking at an event near Baltimore unveiling a new multi-billion-dollar investment in submarine manufacturing: "And so in the final day, the president decided to give a speech and take the credit, which is pretty par for the course where you don't do the work, but you get all the credit. That is the Trump way.

The Hellenic Republic (Greece) vs The Netherlands: 2 -zip at halftime. ΖΗΤΩ Η ΕΛΛΑΣ!!! 💙🇬🇷🤍

This was a president who may not have liked the press or stories they did but respected the first amendment and didn't bar them from covering the WH.

RT @HelenaGoransson: Norway's Prime Minister rips apart Trump's stupid letter. Love this! Every leader that receives a letter like this fr…

Now we know why Canada refused Trump's trade deal. The US has no business demanding Canada change its language and culture. It is not a territory of the US.

I love the fact that Canada is a major energy exporter to the U.S. and winter is coming about the same time as the midterms.

Stop Trump’s idiotic trade war killing American businesses. Let peaceful commerce among the nations prevail. And hands off Canada, America’s #1 trading partner, whose people are now boycotting American products because of Trump’s imbecilic policies.

🚨BREAKING: An ICE/Border Patrol agent approached a U.S. citizen at a gas station, in Lake Worth, Florida, demanded his ID, and when the U.S. citizen asked why? … The agent’s said, “Because you’re an immigrant.” Except that is not how the Constitution works. In the video, the U.S. citizen is standing at a gas station when an agent walks up and says, “Let me see your ID.” The man asks a completely reasonable question, “Why?” The agent responds, “Because you’re an immigrant.” And before the man has even been identified, the agents grab his hands and puts him in handcuffs. People standing around immediately start questioning what is happening…asking the agents how they can arrest someone when they haven’t even identified who he is… But the agents ignore them and walk the man to their vehicle. The Fourth Amendment protects people from unreasonable searches and seizures. The Supreme Court has held that roving Border Patrol agents need reasonable suspicion, based on specific circumstances, to stop someone and question them about immigration status. And apparent ethnicity, by itself, is not enough. So, what was the actual legal basis for demanding this man show his ID? Because if the answer is literally… “because you’re an immigrant,” that should piss off every American. You should not have to prove you’re a U.S. citizen before the government decides it has the right to put you in handcuffs. And this is just another reminder that constitutional rights don’t mean anything if federal agents can violate them, over and over again, with no accountability.

Mick Jagger is 83. Mitch McConnell is 84. Never underestimate the benefits of sex, drugs, and rock ’n’ roll.

“Gimme Shelter” – The Voice That Saved It, the Live Fire, and the Song That Signaled the End of the World On a stage glittering with multicolored lights, Mick Jagger stands center frame in a loose white shirt and flared pants. His voice is tight, slightly raw, carrying an unease that’s hard to shake. Behind him the band plays with real intensity. This isn’t just a performance. It immediately raises the question that has followed “Gimme Shelter” for more than half a century: why did such a dark song become one of the Rolling Stones’ most important works, and why did a woman’s voice end up as its true soul? The clearest answer lives in the studio recording. Merry Clayton was called in the middle of the night, pregnant, to add backing vocals. Her “Rape, murder…” section is not decoration. It is the moment the song detonates. Clayton’s voice is powerful and desperate at the same time — beautiful and brutal. When she tears into those words, the entire atmosphere shifts. Mick Jagger supplies the danger and the foreboding, but it is Clayton who makes the song unforgettable. This is one of the rare cases where a female voice doesn’t just support a male-led track — it rescues and completes it. In the version captured in the video, the focus locks onto Mick Jagger. He uses his whole body and his eyes to transmit that same sense of dread. The way he leans, the way he looks upward, the way his voice cracks at the peaks — all of it creates a hot, immediate energy. Jagger turns the stage into the place where the song is happening right now, not merely being retold. The fierce backing vocal still cuts through, making the already dark atmosphere even sharper. The historical moment that produced “Gimme Shelter” only deepens its weight. The late 1960s were drowning in chaos: the Vietnam War, assassinations, riots, street violence. The song arrived like a warning. The lyrics never name a specific event, yet the feeling is unmistakable — something is breaking apart, and no one can find shelter. The slow groove, the guitar riff that slices like a blade, everything builds the impression of an approaching apocalypse. That feeling wasn’t invented later. It was already there when the song was written. Many people ask whether “Gimme Shelter” is the Rolling Stones’ greatest song. Compared with “Satisfaction,” “Paint It Black,” or “Sympathy for the Devil,” it lacks easy catchiness and an immediately hummable melody. But that lack of comfort is exactly its strength. It never tries to please the listener. It demands that you face the unease head-on. Combined with Merry Clayton’s irreplaceable contribution, the song reaches a level of completeness rare even in the Stones’ catalog. The most frightening and most admirable thing about “Gimme Shelter” is that it has never agreed to become a comfortable song. It still stands there, cold and sharp, refusing to be tamed. Every time Merry Clayton’s voice rips through the air, every time Mick Jagger lets the dread pour out of his body, the listener is pushed back into the proper place: not someone being comforted, but someone forced to look straight at the chaos. The song doesn’t need to be loved in the usual way. It only needs to be remembered — and it has done that better than almost anything else.
