Stars and Stripes: Ombudsman column: The Pentagon is trying to silence me. “No one should be surprised that they’re kicking out the one person charged by Congress with protecting Stars and Stripes’ editorial independence. For nearly a year, Pentagon leadership has placed more and more restrictions on the mainstream media. The New York Times sued and when the Defense/War Department lost in […]

Kennt jemand freie Stockfoto-Datenbanken, die primär mit #europäischen Inhalten gefüttert sind (kostenfrei und frei lizensierbar, vorzugsweise CC0/gemeinfrei)
Sobald man bei Pixabay, Pexels etc. irgendwas mit potenziell leicht politischer Färbung sucht, findet man sich im reinsten Dschungel von #StarsAndStripes wieder.
Ich würde gerne auf echte Fotos setzen, statt Elemente mit AI-Bildern zu illustrieren.

Stars and Stripes: Pentagon plan expands oversight of Stars and Stripes, limits content. “The Pentagon has released a modernization plan for Stars and Stripes that affirms the publication’s independence while expanding Defense Department oversight, introducing new restrictions on content and transitioning away from a print publication.”

Man kann sich natürlich fragen, warum ich einen Trump gepinselt habe, der die Stripes der US-Flagge wie Spaghetti auffrisst. Ich gebe zu, ich habe keine Ahnung, die Bildkonstellation hat sich beim Herumpinseln einfach so ergeben.

“Stars & Stripes will be custom tailored to our warfighters,” Sean Parnell, the chief #Pentagon spox wrote. “It will focus on warfighting, weapons systems, fitness, lethality, survivability, & ALL THINGS MILITARY.” He added that the publication will cease publishing “repurposed DC gossip columns” & “Associated Press reprints.”

Today the United States celebrates Independence Day as the nation tests the limits of democracy. Will it last another year to celebrate a quarter millennium of the great experiment in democratic self-governance?

I can't for the life of me imagine why a German company (Aldi) would sell American Independence day related items in the Netherlands.
I also can't decide whether the stars and stripes being sour, and the illustrated dollar sign waving the American flag are actually the German sense of humor. Either way it's pretty good satire, lol.

@wdlindsy Neither does the star spangled banner belong on the face of Trump’s profile picture on Truth Social. Can any greater vandalism of its value be represented? #DictatorTrump #ThFlag #DictatorKing #AbsoluteMonarchs #Dictators #Kings #LiarsSocial #Doublespeak #StarsAndStripes

A cheap, non-obvious, D.C.-adjacency-required way to get a quality American flag
The American flag we’d bought in the summer of 2021 had faded and then developed a tear at one corner, so it was time to buy a replacement. That’s been a task that’s come due every three to four years over our two decades and counting of home ownership–the Stars and Stripes are not forever when subjected to mid-Atlantic weather–but this time I wanted to research my options instead of throwing still more money at Amazon.
At some point, probably in the middle of work-related clicking around, that shopping research led me to my congressman’s Web site. Rep. Don Beyer (D.-Va.), like other members of Congress, has a flag-request form that I’d thought of only as a way to buy a flag flown over the Capitol. But on actually eyeballing that form, I realized that I could buy an unflown, 3-by-5-foot cotton flag for just $15… at a mandatory shipping cost of $10.75.
Paying that much for shipping bothered me when I can get to and from the Capitol for $6 and change via Metro, less if I use Capital Bikeshare on the way there. Fortunately, the legislative branch of the U.S. has two houses, so I checked the site of Sen. Tim Kaine (D.-Va.) and saw that I could buy the same flag at the same $15 price and pick it up for free. Sold!
(Sen. Mark Warner, D.-Va., also offers free flag pickup; I’m not aware of complaints about Rep. Beyer’s constituent service, so maybe this is a site-template issue on the House side?)
Three business days later, I got an e-mail from a staff assistant for Sen. Kaine saying the flag was ready for pickup at his office in the Russell Senate Office Building. I stopped by Tuesday evening on the way to an event in Navy Yard, appreciating the Russell Building’s handsome Beaux-Arts architecture, then attached our reasonably-priced purchase to the flagpole on our front porch Wednesday morning.
Sometime that afternoon or evening, a gust of wind put enough strain to crack a plastic bracket on one of the flagpole rings that had helped secure the flag, leaving it clumsily draped over the shrubbery below the pole. I am fixing that problem by ordering two new rings–which means I’m throwing still more money at Amazon.
