Kimmel’s defiant return highlights one of the most disturbing dynamics of Trump II, that so many people in positions of leadership are chickenshit frauds who would rather fold in advance than put up anything resembling a fight www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

ICYMI from @michaelharriot.bsky.social #ContrabandCamp: “An Obituary For a White Man. In death, Charlie Kirk has become a fictional character that Charlie Kirk would have hated.” www.contrabandcamp.com/p/an-obituar...

The Trump administration is trying to destroy the Fair Housing Act. The FHA is the third leg of the stool to social equality among the races, so it’s no surprise the white supremacist government wants it gone. It must be saved. My latest in @thenation.com

Was curious how media covered the fatal shooting of Malcolm X in 1965: "His Life Story: A Study in Hate" One AP report on the murder opened: "Malcolm X, fiery renegade of the Negro radical movement, was assassinated Sunday..." Philly Inquirer called him a "Merchant of Venom"

95 democrats, including @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social voted to "honor" the life of charlie kirk, who called for joe biden to be killed and said black women like justice ketanji brown jackson are unqualified affirmative action hires. shame. clerk.house.gov/evs/2025/rol...

There is an emergency protest tomorrow at 10am at Harper’s Ferry WV against erasing history: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Alarming reports that the Trump admin is trying to silence history at the National Park at Harper’s Ferry—where abolitionist John Brown led a raid seeking to arm slaves for a revolt. Signs being targeted include those that refer to “racial discrimination.” archive.is/gGV2d

If you’ve ever wondered why crime is higher in majority-Black, Democrat-controlled cities, you can just look at the data. Spoiler alert: it’s not.

Today at 3:30 pm EST, the House GOP will force Dems to vote for resolution praising Charlie Kirk, but it makes ZERO MENTION of the divisive rhetoric he espoused. I’m told the Dem leadership plans to vote for it. I’m going live at 11:45 am EST to discuss. Tune into Youtube.com/RolandSMartin

Someone posted a clip of @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social’s interview w’right winger Ben Shapiro. I pulled up the 10-minute segment on Obama and race and it is truly despicable. For BOTH of them. I’ll deconstruct this mess on #RolandMartinUnfiltered tonight at 6 pm EST. Watch Youtube.com/RolandSMartin

This is an archived government report that found that “Since 1990, far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left or radical Islamist extremists.” It existed yesterday and is gone today.

Man, I had forgotten that Karen Attiah is from Dallas and lives here

Karen Attiah, a black woman, got fired for A: accurately quoting what Charlie Kirk said about Black women B: Accurately observing that most white Americans seem permissive of white violence. It's bullshit, but almost expected in this white supremacist country.

White MAGA is backtracking like crazy today after one of their own was arrested for killing Charlie Kirk! Tune into #RolandMartinUnfiltered at 6 pm EST at www.youtube.com/live/NYqQngs... or the Black Star Network app. I’m going IN!

This was the last time I saw Frankie Beverly. Was June 23, 2024 when he performed with the O’Jays and The Whispers in St. Louis. He passed away Sept. 10, 2024. He was an amazing brother.

Gotta shout out @rolandsmartin.bsky.social for what he is doing. And @tiffanydcross.bsky.social is one of my favorites. Can Fanbase work on the AT protocol? Could it be ported over? The pull needs to be in the same general direction doesn't it? 2/2

If Texas Dems go home, force Gov. Abbott to send state troopers to arrest them. Don’t walk in willingly! Create the spectacle. Do what MLK did: make Abbott the antagonist like Jim Clark and Bull Connor. when the troopers come, have all the cameras there, kneel on the ground and make em put cuffs on

Time to #BringTheFunk to NABJ!

To my NABJ fam! I had to leave the convention in Cleveland to fly to Chicago to speak to a conference of philanthropists. So I missed the candidates forum. You have until 5 pm FRIDAY to vote. You can vote online or on-person. Vote for me for VP-Digital. Let’s #BringTheFunk to NABJ’s next 50 years!

Today we learned Andrew Cuomo is directly coordinating with Donald Trump, even as this President sends masked agents to rip our neighbors off the streets and guts the social services so many New Yorkers rely on. It’s disqualifying and a betrayal of our city.
