Rachel Maddow is talking about Trump’s efforts “to get rid of the multiracial democracy that our Constitution is supposed to protect. It is a war on Black America. The fight to save it is looking like it’s going to be the fight of all of our lives.”

We murdered two more people in a boat today

just learned boston university has a study abroad campus in los angeles and this is now my favorite thing. experience new cultures. learn the exotic ways of the locals. such as "putting avocado on things" and "sunscreen in february"

I defy anyone to explain this on neutral legal principles.

While the world’s eyes are on fashion’s biggest night, we’re turning ours to the garment, retail, and warehouse workers who keep the industry running. From true love found on the picket line to a free tailoring school out of a Brooklyn basement — meet the New Yorkers who make it all possible.

My painting SUMMER STORM

There’s literally always a tweet.

At the time of its release, in April '88, Tracy Chapman's debut sounded like nothing else on rock radio. You'd hear Led Zeppelin, Tom Petty, Eagles. And then, Fast Cars. It was a breath a fresh air and reminded me of Joan Armatrading's work. The whole LP has aged well and remains relevant, powerful.

Internet is a basic need. Proud to announce that we are expanding NYC’s Neighborhood Internet Program, which provides free, high-speed broadband to New Yorkers living in affordable housing. Now an additional 2,000 NYC households will gain access to high-speed broadband across the Bronx.

Wind turbines are such an eyesore.

He picked up 77 million votes after attempting a coup d’état, I don’t understand this argument

An agenda for Supreme Court reform: - 18 year term limits - Expand the court to 13 Justices - Binding ethics rules - Congressional limits on what the Court can rule on per act of legislation We need to change the composition of the Court, but also its role. The Court has far too much power.

A Pulitzer for Julie K. Brown. Richly deserved, and overdue!

Trump's best asset from 2017-March 2020 was the economy did really well and people got a tax cut. Now, even with the One Big, Beautiful Bill, the price of gas and other cost of living caused by the Iran war erases basically any economy gains from tax cuts.

Last week Skubal grabbed his forearm and signaled to the dugout but remained in the game and seemed fine. This story is from three hours ago: www.mlb.com/news/tarik-s...

Today, we announced $270 million of new military support to Ukraine. Ukraine’s fight is our fight. Their cause — freedom, democracy, sovereignty — is our cause. Good to see President Zelenskyy today in Yerevan. 🇨🇦🇺🇦

Anyone who remains silent is culpable. Silence is an act of complicity.

Numerous publications have published the 'Trump SA'd and physically assaulted a 13 yr. old girl.' He hasn't sued any of them, why? Discovery. He's afraid of the Discovery phase of any lawsuit regarding his Epstein crimes... Threads

on set. what about YOU?

Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick (according to Donald Trump): "However the #1 reason people will vote for me is YOU. It’s the top message above any policy issue." It's a cult.

"The Eagle," taken in 1913 by photographer Roland Reed. It was captured during a time when the Blackfoot tribe’s access to their ancestral lands was becoming restricted following the establishment of Glacier National Park in 1910

you don't need a study to know this is bad for kids. that's why school admins have zero excuses for signing these deals

Just another day of being absolutely sick and tired of this bullshit excuse of a President.

#OnThisDay in 1884, crusading journalist Ida B. Wells was riding a train from Memphis to Woodstock TN, when a white railroad conductor ordered her to move to another car. She refused. Dragged off the train, she sued the railroad and won $500. mississippitoday.org/2025/05/04/1...

I'm going on Master Chef, looking Gordon Ramsay dead in the eye while I pop this in the microwave, then staring at him unblinking for two minutes until it's ready.

1. ICE has not paid for detainee medical care for 7 MONTHS The termination of payments to providers has coincided with a MASSIVE SPIKE in detainee deaths. This is a health crisis and a moral crisis. Follow along for details. 🧵

Gas prices hit an average of $4.45 a gallon over the weekend, according to AAA. That's a 30-cent rise in the past week, and up $1.28 from this time last year.

$400 million for a White House ballroom that most Americans will never set foot in.   How about $400 million to make your health care more affordable? How about $400 million to lower your grocery bill?

Still wild to think some democrats told us that Trump & Harris were basically the same. And, they’re still part of the party. Unbelievable.

She knew, we knew and now everyone is paying the price for the lies and incompetence of this corrupt regime….

Some from other countries may flee to Mexico.

Trump and the GOP don’t care about the constitution. They only care about power. We will fight them tooth and nail to protect voters and free and fair elections.

Well, the banks are very responsible and good at managing risk. I'm not worried. By the way I've been in a coma since 2007

The second point cannot be emphasized enough. Guiliani put the command center in WTC against the advice of experts, and as a result of his horny incompetence, the city's command center was obliterated in the worst terrorist attack on NYC and its response suffered. But he got good photos so...

Congratulations to the University of Minnesota. You have a real star on your faculty.

"Anything that is as old as racism is in the blood line of the nation. It's not any superficial thing-that attitude is in the blood and we have to educate about it." Born on May 2 suffragist, educator & businesswoman extraordinaire Nannie Helen Burroughs 1879

We must come to terms with the fact that anything that Donald Trump or any member of his administrations says is automatically a lie.

It wasn't just the media. Republicans erased the distinction and rewrote it themselves. But yes, it's amazing that she said "half are good people, half are deplorable racists" and a lot of them said "for the record, I'm deplorable, I'm one of the racists"

Like clockwork.

I have escalated my aversion to Spotify.

This is a lot of words from Trump to offer no firm commitment to anything. We’re going to make our “best efforts” to get ships out of Hormuz? Are we entering the strait with warships? Is the IRGC agreeing not to fire on us?

RANDY! WHAT A CATCH!
