Dear Knicks, Stay away from the WH. Your fans.

Michelle and I had fun surprising the first group of visitors to the Obama Presidential Center on Juneteenth. Come check it out!

Epstein survivor Dani Bensky: When you have somebody like Todd Blanche at the helm of the DOJ, it’s hugely problematic. He has the president’s best interests at heart. He does not have the American people’s best interests at heart. He’s so unfit to be the acting attorney general.

FYI: JUST the act of lifting sanctions nets Iran about $5B PER MONTH. That's in addition to the $24B in unfrozen assets, and the $300B that will probably be managed by Kushner's hedge fund for a fee.

Cool algae formation on my walk around the Reflecting Pool today.

Good morning and happy Juneteenth to all who voted for Kamala Harris in 2024! TGIF

Today I am moved by power of this example of how Black people hold our own history. Without museums. W/o official declarations or monuments. In community. Happy Juneteenth!

We are suing to prevent Donald Trump from controlling mail-in voting by dictating to the Postal Service of whose ballot they will and won't deliver. All of this is laddering up to Trump trying to dictate who gets to vote and who doesn't.

Welcome to a “There! I said it!” edition of the MAGA Minute. We love it when we can agree with Mr Trump. Today he warns Republicans that he will be the last Republican president. We agree. #RadioFreeAmerica #politics

Imagine lying about another head of government, only to get publicly fact-checked a few hours later.

Happy Juneteenth everyone! Still feeling all the feels from yesterday. Let’s let this sense of pride, purpose, and hope propel our fight forward! ❤️

It’s Juneteenth. On June 19, 1865, Gen. Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston Island & issued General Order No. 3. It announced that “all slaves are free.” This story of this one event was commemorated through the diaspora of Black Americans for more than 150 years before becoming a national holiday.

Today we celebrate Juneteenth, the day freedom's news finally reached the last enslaved Americans in Texas, over two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. Justice delayed is justice denied. We honor those before us and recommit to the fight for civil rights and equal justice.

Did y'all feel that today? Did y'all FEEL that today? That unity. That COMMunity. That feeling of inclusivity. That feeling of joy when we stand together. Whether it was to celebrate one of the greatest basketball teams or one of the greatest presidents in history, we were united in joy. THAT is US.

How is it possible that this document has been read by tens of millions of people all over the world on the internet but a senior senator on the Intel Committee hasn’t?

If you watch the Obama Library, the World Cup, and the Knicks parade this afternoon -- and nothing else -- you can actually see the America we're supposed to be at age 250

Obama: A declaration that we are all created equal, endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights, and that in the newly independent United States there will be no kings or lords, no serfs or subjects, but only citizens,

When political cartoons hit so accurately you want to make giant billboards of these everywhere.

It’s been five years since Alex Jones lost InfoWars to the Sandy Hook families. As the verdict came down, he asked: “Do these people actually believe they’re getting any money?” He hasn't paid them a penny. Well, The Onion is going pay them anyway. The new InfoWars begins July 2nd at 8 p.m. ET.

#ObamaPresidentialCenter Thank you, Obama's!

Michelle Obama: You were doing the people's work, rescuing our economy, expanding health care, ending a war, ordering the bin laden raid, saving an auto industry, winning a peace prize.

The Grand Opening of the Obama Presidential Center... This is the celebration we ALL needed! Michelle Obama's speech had me in tears. Thank you, Obama! #YesWeCan

The Obama Presidential Center is finally opening! Tune in today on Obama.org starting at 11am CT as Michelle and I share what this moment means to us and celebrate with friends, family, and members of the community in Chicago.

Democrats and other vocal “liberals” need to speak up and answer for this! @booker.senate.gov @jahimes.bsky.social @wesmoore.bsky.social @colorado.gov @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social @ezraklein.bsky.social @preetbharara.bsky.social @nealkatyal.bsky.social

Ossoff on Trump calling him "Os(jerk!)off" -- "I didn't think it was his best work as far as nicknames go. But more to the point, he is increasingly unstable. And I think it flows the fact that he is globally humiliated from this failed war."

Why isn’t this all over the news!?! @msnowreports.bsky.social Dems on this list, too. @booker.senate.gov @jahimes.bsky.social @juliancastrotx.bsky.social @colorado.gov @wesmoore.bsky.social & @nealkatyal.bsky.social @preetbharara.bsky.social @ezraklein.bsky.social Repulsive. 🤮

Every single day.

Ossoff: The president has been humiliated on the world stage. Many Americans are increasingly concerned about his stability and his capacity for the office. It’s deeply distressing to Americans to see a president so incompetent attempting and failing to represent the nation.

It must be so cool to live in a functional republic.

While the killers of Renée Good and Alex Pretti walk free, the DOJ is busy bringing bogus charges against protesters. The Administration thinks intimidation will make us back down. They keep learning the same lesson: Minnesotans don't scare easily. We organize for our rights ✊🏽

To everyone who helped bring the Obama Presidential Center to life, thank you. Michelle and I are so grateful for all your dedication and hard work over the years. I got a little teary-eyed tonight thinking about my mother-in-law, Marian Robinson.

Face it, Donny. The world leaders are literally turning their backs on you. Nobody likes you. Not even a little. 😂

UPDATE: Wired has picked up the story. www.wired.com/story/leak-e...

As the government raids “antifa groups” in Minneapolis with the SAME charges levied against myself and the rest of the Broadview Six, we need to be asking how they got this indictment. And as charges (hopefully) get dropped, we must remember the process is the punishment.
