MOBB DEEP!!

Should be a jam-packed show today @marketplace.org 😅

I can’t keep fueling the economy. This shit is about to crash hard. 😭

You know what the federal government can actually do in DC. Fully fund Metro!! It was y'all's idea from jump street! Why the fuck are we running six car trains during rush hour on the Red line!?!

What's wild is how loud the “volume should be turned down” message is.

Let's get it, I'm home tomorrow. 202

I know all this shit in DC is getting to me. Saw a road sign that said “Notice” and I saw “Not Ice” …

And fuck the federal agents driving up GA Ave 🤣

I’m not rich, but Lawd knows I've lapped inflation four times🤣.

What a joke of a press conference.

An excerpt from my new book, The Second Emancipation, which reexamines the global politics of the independence era in Africa, and reveals the deep connections between the push for African freedom and the long struggle for civil rights in the US. foreignpolicy.com/2025/08/08/s...

Will home rule exist when I return home this week?

the voting rights act is, in its entirety, obviously constitutional under the 15th amendment, which gives congress broad and proactive authority to stop racial discrimination in voting. and you know it is obviously constitutional because roberts has had to invent entire new doctrines to gut it.

Man riding public transportation, specifically the bus, is unmatched comedy! “Wheelchair chair coming on!! Oh, none of y'all motherfuckers understand!”

The Second Emancipation, listed among books due out in August. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/30/b...

The Washington Post is a Sham! If you don't get it, make sure you don't start!!

Being from DC, PTI's debut was so big! Mike and Tony were already GOAT status from The Post. They had Wizards and Skins shows on NBC4 with George Michael. But PTI felt like “we” made it!! It also changed TV!! The smile that hits me whenever I see PTI is unmatched.

Greetings from Ghana! Coming out one month from today. Description here, along with pre-order links.https://wwnorton.com/books/9781324092452

I'm an avid reader, but University Press books be having me in the literary blender.

That putt!!!

So many important decisions, and I'm debating whether I send my golf clubs to the Wynn.

What a set!

I left a bunch of Nats shit in an Uber on July 4th after the game. Took that L. But getting my big body umbrella back tonight 🥹 🙏🏾

James Wood is clearly Barry Bonds.

Lmao fired the GM and the Manager. Like you can trust this ownership!! Nationals on some other shit.

Happy Birthday to @hatethegamebook.com !!! Go buy her book!! #BlackBookSky #BookSky bookshop.org/p/books/hate...

Imagine no salary cap, he’s completely undervalued.

Ain't never heard a song start with “Darkchild” and it not be a hit.

O’s and the Nats in slugfest on a Friday night!! Béisbol back!!

Let’s go! Can’t wait to tap into this. #BlackBookSky #BookSky

I'm Unserious, but this is all I ever think about when I see a Barnes & Noble 🤣🤣

What will the unelected Nine decide tomorrow? A lot!

Go-Go, oh wait yall niggas said state. Damn shame. #51st

Are we celebrating the anniversary of Tony doing the 900 for the first time?

So many folks with Skateboards at the hotel I'm at that I keep looking for Sal Masekela. 🤣

Ok Geopolitcal reason lets go Edmonton!! But for these jokes!! These bammas in Broward County owning Hockey is hilarious!! 🤣🤣

Looking at what the players at Oakmont have been dealing with has been crazy. Us weekend golfers ain't playing the same game lord. 🤣

The best lesson my Daddy taught me was you don't have to try and fuck every woman you know. So thankful for the genuine friendship I have 🙏🏾.

Uber should know that I will get on public transportation. Motherfucker I got a BMW (Bus/Metro/Walking)

My friends be so worried about me getting smoked. I be outside. Maybe I'm overexposed. But I'm really from DC 😭. Smoke me, I'm the inspiration? #Hubris

I must have missed the community meeting memo for these MetroBus Number changes. My beloved 70 bus 😭

Gonna be hard to explain the (CDQ) era, or one might call it an epoch.

Folk's teeth show me the gaps in the healthcare system.

The Nats game ended in under two hours. “Rob Manfred” fixed baseball 🥹

DC outside of the federal. Folks *constantly* forget that people live here and we have a culture and it is Black as fuck. “Washington” is not DC. DC has its own life and language outside of Washington. We goddamn live here and our stories are rarely — if ever — told in a significant way.

The “Project Esther” piece, sheesh.

I don't know how trying to kill consumers in a consumer based economy is the move. It ain't even hustling backward. Its hustling baffled.
