What a treat to see 3 operas over the past week at the Met: The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, Turandot, and Don Giovanni. I needed that dose of live music.

Just to be clear: Brian Kilmeade *did not* endorse euthanizing homeless people. He advocated MURDERING over 700,000 of them.

And on a network that has been *beside itself* over the murder of just one man this week.

Finally got to see Buena Vista Social Club this afternoon. What an absolutely wonderful experience. I didn’t want the music to end and feel the need to get a night of dancing in soon. #theatresky

Breakthrough the noise:

This step in DC is a pilot project for militarizing other American streets.

President Trump just said so.⬇️

Even when DC violent crime is down 26 percent.

Reminder of August leaked memo (via @gregsargent.bsky.social): newrepublic.com/article/1987...
Trump mentions NYC, Baltimore, and Oakland, says "they're so far gone," and adds, "this will go further. We'll starting very strongly with DC."

Disgusted by the vicious, antisemitic terrorist attack in Boulder today. Call it for what it is! It was a terrorist attack on AMERICAN soil. Pure, unfettered evil. We must not rest until we crush this hatred in our county! Standing with my Jewish friends!!!!

Trump’s executive order is a major step backward for civil rights in America. Let’s break it down: it eliminates a key protection called “disparate impact,” which has been used for decades to fight discrimination in schools, housing, and other areas.

Drifting to bed after a lovely first day of rehearsal. It’s truly a gift to be creating art in these extremely difficult times. #theatresky #mrsdalloway #cincinnati

See this is what I mean. Mississippi is a state with a 40% Black population. African American candidate Mike Espy garnered nearly 45% of the vote in the 2020 General Election for the U.S. Senate.

Why isn’t there a 10 yr Dem plan for organizing Mississippi? Why concede the state w/a 40% Black pop?
NEW: Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves has declared April 2025 as Confederate Heritage Month.

He did so at the behest of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, a neo-Confederate organization that espouses “Lost Cause” ideology, which whitewashes the role of slavery in the Civil War. 🧵

Gov. Tate Reeves declared April 2025 as Confederate Heritage Month in Mississippi, keeping alive a 32-year-old tradition that began in 1993.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

This is a reminder to find the small moments of joy. Last night, after dinner with 2 dear friends, we made our way to a local gay bar where the legendary Kevin Aviance was DJing. It was a much needed release to dance to really good music and free ourselves for a few hours in a queer space.

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

Adolf Hitler's “Mein Kampf” is still on U.S. Naval Academy shelves. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” and “Memorializing the Holocaust” are not.

An order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office led to a purge of books that are critical of racism — but preserved volumes defending white power.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024.

This isn't due to luck or skill.

Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you.

Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.
