When life feels unstable, artists often keep communities functioning •Harlem rent parties (1920s): neighbors held home concerts to cover rent; musicians played, a hat was passed, and information circulated alongside music. •Savoy Ballroom (opened 1926): one of the first racially integrated dance halls; social dancing doubled as community glue...

AOC: When people see a ballroom and, at the same time, see their health insurance getting cut off, they know that they are paying for that ballroom with no health care, higher grocery prices, and increasingly unaffordable housing. And so I think people are pissed off about it, and they should be. It’s wrong. This is a complete theft of our money. This is what I want people to understand: this is our money. When you pay your taxes, that money is being stolen to pay for a vanity project like a ballroom, or to renovate the Kennedy Center, or whatever it is that this guy wants to do, instead of what it should be used for—paying for things that actually benefit you: better roads, health care, and more affordable groceries.

Coming of age during the AIDS crisis shaped the trajectory of my life. I will ALWAYS stand by the LGBTQ community, even when, and especially when, it's not popular. I've gone to the mat and passed landmark legislation for our community, and I'll keep doing that in Congress.

When Americans are struggling to pay the bills and keep food on the table, our President shouldn't be spending a billion dollars on a ballroom that no one wanted and no one needs.

On this day in 1992, we lost Marsha P. Johnson. 🌸🏳️‍⚧️ A Black trans activist, drag queen and self-described "saint of Christopher Street," Marsha was at the very front of the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement. She was there at the Stonewall uprising in 1969, marched in the first Pride the following year, and co-founded STAR alongside Sylvia Rivera, giving food, shelter and family to homeless queer and trans youth when almost no one else would. Later, as the AIDS crisis tore through her community, she showed up again, caring for the sick and fighting with ACT UP.

Canadians deserve to know this about our Health Minister. Canada’s Health Minister is not medically trained. Not a physician. Not an epidemiologist. Not a public health scientist. Her background is in behavioural psychology — the study of compliance, authority, messaging, and social influence. (read that again) Canada's Health Ministers background is in behavioural psychology — the study of compliance, authority, messaging, and social influence. So when Canadians are told not to trust health information from other countries — It's not because the science changed, Its' not because new evidence emerged, It's because politics did

Mar-a-Lago’s a massive estate in Palm Beach, Florida over 60,000 square feet, built in the 1920s, with 126 rooms, a huge ballroom, and direct ocean access. Trump bought it in 1985, turned it into a private club in the late 90s, and it’s now his main residence and a key spot for political events. It’s got historic landmark status too, which keeps it protected.

AOC says we shouldn’t be using taxpayer money to build Trump’s ornate castle/ballroom while people are struggling to pay for healthcare and rent. Raju: Would you support authorizing the new ballroom? AOC: No. The president demolished the East Wing of the White House, a historic jewel of the American people, and he started to build this ballroom long before any incident. He also promised the American people that this was going to be built with private dollars, so the idea that they are trying to change the rationale for this doesn’t add up. The White House long had facilities for hosting, which also included the East Wing of the White House prior to them bulldozing the crown jewel of the American people. I don’t believe, in an era when they are jacking up costs, when they’re gutting everyone’s healthcare, and when people cannot afford their rent and their mortgages, that we should be using our treasure to build an ornate castle on a scale that is unprecedented and unbelievable. I’m sure that anybody who is against waste, fraud, and abuse would agree with me on that.

In a step that reflects Dubai’s forward-looking cultural vision and its belief that creativity and innovation sit at the core of sustainable development, we have launched the Museum of Digital Art (MODA) - the region’s first museum dedicated to digital art and new technologies - in collaboration with the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC). The museum is an important addition to our cultural and creative ecosystem, serving as a global platform where culture meets technology and the creative economy, reshaping how art is produced, presented, and experienced in the digital age. In Dubai, we continue to build cultural institutions that keep pace with future transformations, expanding opportunities for artists, creators, and talent, guided by the conviction that culture is a key driver in shaping the economy of the future. MODA embodies the concept of future museums: living spaces for creativity, knowledge, and community interaction that go beyond the traditional role of preserving heritage, becoming bridges that connect ideas and generations across time and borders, and reinforcing Dubai’s position as a global hub for culture, innovation, and creativity.
