We're spinning the block on the Juneteenth celebrations tomorrow. Happy Juneteenth 2.0.

Mamdani: "As we mark 250 years ... we see the wealthiest country -- one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's first trillionaire hungers for more ... we see masked agents terrorizing our streets, eating food cooked by undocumented neighbors before spiriting them away in unmarked vans"

She threatened to use a Jim Crow rewrite of a Reconstruction law to intimidate the Latina mayor and a bunch of Black political leaders (and one white lady) because she didn’t want a wrongfully convicted Black man to get a job he was elected to.

He's built dishonestly

Explain my ideas on saving the world.

I wasn't even getting paid when I robbed that bank

They're not fucking around.

The humidity goes from 1000 to 100,000.

Rain doesn't even cool the temperature during the Louisiana summer. It's raining neck bone water.

I love how the people of New Orleans were not willing to sit around and just allow that evil bitch of an AG to say and do what she wanted.

Pick her up tomorrow, so she can't bond out over the holiday weekend.

The Louisiana AG is a heartless, cruel, racist mfer. Her cruelty is not getting enough attention.

😍😍😍

ICE learned that white people are generally fine with them harassing people as long as they are left out of it and don’t have to hear about it every day. Another reminder that white folks aren‘t fighting Trump for a better country. They just want to go back to sleep.

Republicans have unapologetically hitched themselves to a sexual abusing idiot who keeps bragging about "acing" a dementia screening.

USA chants and American flags genuinely make me uncomfortable.

I feel like America has robbed Black people of feeling any type of patriotism.

Only during the Olympics. It’s always “let’s go USA” for those 2 weeks only 😂

I don't think I have ever felt patriotic. Lol. Not even for a second.

This video is one of the best days in Baton Rouge history, no exaggeration. Southern 🩵💛 LSU 💜💛

Catch me this week on the web and in person talking to US about my work against AI & data centers. Wednesday’s livestream with Shift Collective. Saturday with Young Gifted & Green for Essence Festival!

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

Teaching my kids everything I know will be one of my greatest gifts to them.

Happy July 1st. We're halfway to Christmas.

To be crystal clear here -- the nun was **wearing her habit** and walking to Sunday mass when ICE arrested her and hauled her off: apnews.com/article/nun-...

BREAKING: Melat Kiros has won the Democratic primary in Colorado’s 1st district. The democratic socialist has unseated the district’s 29-year incumbent by running on Medicare for All, abolishing ICE, ending forever wars and more.

Don’t forget to set out some cookies for Bobby Bonilla before you go to bed tonight.

Picking the right door as a young Black person can be a matter of life or death. A lower-stakes example: I tell people who are nervous about canvassing their neighborhood to start with the people who have signs indicating similar values. Gestures matter if they help us find each other.

Extremely valid. Which means if you do put up signs like this, know that you’re absolutely obligated to act as the person below did when someone needs help.

Obviously this is a dipshit opinion. But since I sometimes see people on the left rolling their eyes about those signs, I just want you all to know that the other night some lost Black teens came to our house after taking the wrong bus and we were able to get them home. Why’d they pick us? Signs.

Many thanks to @thisisrexsteele.bsky.social for purchasing the tenth copy of Uptown, Downtown Vol. 1. Get yours today: ryne-hancock.bigcartel.com/product/upto...

By the way the link to purchase my book is my pinned skeet. Thank you. Thank you.

Vance knows what he's doing. He was a major critic of Trump and contemplated voting for HRC in 2016. He's bought now. Thiel paid good money for this.

I got 2 miles in this evening. It is f'n hot. Back & bis were this morning, followed by a light 1-mile walk. A good day of being active. #BlackSkyFitness

We're all in it, unfortunately.

My daughter’s quote: Seeing Mayor Mamdani do his mayor thing is like being in third grade and the other class across the hall gets a pizza party and we don’t. 😀

The NABJ giving Trump a platform was so disappointing. That felt dirty. Like, wtf are you doing?

Arizona in September felt like a microwave.

The Supreme Court ruling in the narrowest margin possible to uphold what's plainly written in the constitution is terrifying. Conservatives are not done with this.

Basically the Supreme Court is 5-4 on whether America is white man's country

Everyone should be extremely concerned that birthright citizenship was 5-4 and not unanimous.

Guaranteed: 1) Black girls will be harassed and demanded to be tested over and over again regardless of how competitive they are. 2) Winners from public schools will be relentlessly hounded by the parents and coaches of losers at private schools, with the goal of making them quit the sport.

In Baton Rouge we had these during the 80's and 90's. Came in white, chocolate, and strawberry.

This country was one person's vote away this morning from putting any birthright citizen in danger of being deported tomorrow. We are so much closer to the abyss than we think. Man oh man.

The dynamics between LeBron fans and Lakers fans was hilarious and also fascinating. They put up with each other, but didn't really like it. Now they can just openly hate each other.
