For better or worse, public figures are judged when they die — their character, contributions, beliefs. It's undeniable that millions have mourned Rob Reiner's tragic death, celebrating his talent and contributions. I suspect when a certain public figure kicks the bucket, sentiments wont be the same

If you’re telling Head Start programs they can’t say “disability”, “Black”, “female”, or “Tribal” in order to get funded—you don’t care about kids. Period.
This administration is attacking the very protections that keep children safe and supported. Our kids are not political props.

Today NYT tells US that Trump is trying to undermine the EU to "protect their ancient culture". That is an absurd lie. Trump wants Russia to win their war of aggression, spread their authoritarian corruption over the great bastion of democracy & progress. He is aligning US with the bad guys.
Watch this. Then remember that the president doesn’t care. He cares that his old ass gets richer in the hand full of years he may have left.
And his sick rich friends. The most corrupt evil man to ever serve as president is ignoring real evil

For Republicans, the cruelty is *always* the point.
Ever since LBJ signed the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts, the GOP has devolved into a magnet for the worst people. The more there are, the worse they get, and faster. The rules of their club repel anyone with a functioning moral compass.

Indiana Republicans are under significant pressure to do something they know is wrong: rig the maps and silence voters.
Washington Republicans are demanding a "9–0 map." That’s not democracy - that’s cheating. They know it, and they’re ashamed, which is why they’re hesitating.

I just saw someone say Texas will never vote for a Black woman Democrat as if Texas has been voting for white male Democrats (cough beto cough cough) or white woman Democrats (wendy) or Black male Democrats (collin) all along.

Paramount is telling WBD shareholders that it has a smoother path to regulatory approval than does Netflix, and Kushner's involvement only strengthens that case

Simply amazing that the Supreme Court declared an end to legal race discrimination in the affirmative action case two years ago and now allows overt racism in both immigration arrests and redistricting.
Using race to help minorities? Bad. Using it to discriminate against them? Very, very good.
