“I think it’s important to say they are not illegal, nobody is illegal” This #bbcqt audience member says she’s “bored” hearing about MPs doing reality TV and is more concerned by the home secretary using words like “invasion”

Justin was 9 months old when his dad, Army First Lt. Jonathan Rozier, died in Iraq. Since then, he’s treasured anything that belonged to his late father. So when the Texan began to covet his dad’s old car as a teen, one man traveled 1,200 miles to make the boy’s dream come true.

As our cars and trucks are getting bigger, so are the blind spots, even in the front. Now, there’s an effort to prevent accidents that are claiming hundreds of lives every year.

If Dr. Oz gets his way, where does this end? Would he recommend local officials make decisions about cancer treatments? Colonoscopies? Or is this kind of scrutiny reserved just for women?

We will keep showing up for and standing up with Uvalde. To demand full accountability, bring justice to the families, and take real action to end gun violence in our communities.

State Sen. Roland Gutierrez, a Democrat who represents Uvalde, said his exclusion from a special legislative committee designed to make legislative recommendations in response to the Uvalde shooting was a “slap in the face” to the people of that community. bit.ly/3GHuzoc

These kinds of mass shootings rarely happen anywhere else in the world. Why are we willing to live with this carnage? Where in God's name is our backbone to have the courage to stand up to the gun lobby? It is time to turn this pain into action.

Two weeks ago, I had a conversation about how I needed him to promise not to back down concerning gun issues. He looked me in the eye & promised. I believe him. I’m sitting here crying bc this is who he is. Please help us get him in office. #BetoForTexas so proud of @BetoORourke

“Now is the time to stop the next shooting ... In each case we say this isn’t the time. Now is the time — like, literally right now. That’s why I’m here.” — Texas gubernatorial candidate @BetoORourke on Gov. Greg Abbott saying now is not the time to politicize a shooting

This 2016 @JohnBranchNYT piece explains why Steve Kerr views the world the way he does and speaks out the way he does. I hope the misguided folks who don't appreciate his emotional, passionate words today read it and understand him better. nytimes.com/2016/12/22/sport…

I'm in Ukraine, a warzone. Russian attacks are constant, airstrikes hit Ukrainian cities overnight. But the first two Ukrainians I saw when I woke up today asked me about the Texas elementary school shooting where a gunman killed 19 children. "Why? How?" politico.com/news/2022/05/24…

In the excitement of #Pulitzer day, Commentary and Editorial Writing command a bit less attention than high-profile reporting categories. But as this year’s winners illustrate, the Pulitzer board still likes opinion pieces and prefers them fiery hot. poynter.org/business-work/20…
