NASA began a two-day practice countdown Saturday
leading up to the fueling of its new moon rocket,
a crucial test that will determine when four astronauts blast off on a lunar flyby.

Calling it “divisive” to document the honest brutality of American slavery and lynching is an attempt to erase the uncomfortable truth of racial terror.
Government efforts to remove such important history from both curricula and public institutions are efforts of deliberate whitewashing, propaganda to protect a mythology of American innocence.
Sanitizing the past protects power, not feelings.

As the "last falangista*" dies, fascism is again on the rise.
Just an example from Manchester.
In the nearby parliamentary constituency, a candidate with connections to race pseudoscience organisations, with Nazi pedigree, could win a crucial by-election.

Oh, I see that news.google.com is now re-writing headlines. Or at least synthesizing them from URLs. Whatever the method, what Google shows in its news is not the same as on the article if actually viewed by a reader.
For instance in the following article the actual headline is:

But Google news rewrote that to be (or pulled it from the URL):

Some USA Olympic Hockey players playing for Canadian teams are in for a rough ride... and if you know enough about hockey and US players, you'll be able to guess who's on top of the shit list.
But this is the part that is actually important:
“We know how this story ends,” said the writer Jennifer Weiner. “The male athletes are flying private, back to their seven-figure NHL paycheques and a White House rolling out the red carpet.
