Does anyone have any other examples of businesses in #Ohio being destroyed by #Wal-Mart and their monopolistic practices?

I'm sure plenty of you have examples from across this once great nation.

Nine months of chaos later, and folks still out here acting like “both sides” weigh the same. One side feeds the fire; the other’s begging for water. Apathy ain’t neutrality—it’s surrender. Power never sleeps, so neither can we.

Totalitarian Narratives: The War Against Memory, Knowledge, and Meaning How authoritarian regimes dismantle the cultural and scientific systems that make truth, memory, and accountability possible.

Ernie Pyle rests on the roadside with a Marine patrol.

Not everyone who gave their life in service wore a uniform.

This Memorial Day, I’m thinking about Dickey Chapelle, Ernie Pyle, and the journalists who died doing the work—side by side with those they covered.

Patriots’ Day: How far-right groups hijack history and patriotic symbols to advance their cause, according to an expert on extremism On Patriots’ Day, far-right groups may use historical events and patriotic symbols to claim they are engaging in a ‘modern-day fight for freedom.’

Far-right extremists hijack patriotic symbols and Revolutionary-era narratives to mask anti-democratic goals and legitimize authoritarian violence.

Lose Your History, Lose Yourself Remembering history as an act of defiance.

What we fail to remember can and will be used against us.

Imagine arriving at your office every day….
