Today, we mourn the loss of Rev. Jesse Jackson, a titan of the Civil Rights Movement. Jackson’s tireless work and leadership lives on in the millions he inspired to continue his legacy of making our country a more just place for all. Rest in peace.

This is the interview Donald Trump didn’t want you to see.

His FCC refused to air my interview with Stephen Colbert.

Trump is worried we’re about to flip Texas.

Your utility bill went up because Trump and Republicans have sabotaged the clean energy industry.

They’ve made it harder to build clean energy infrastructure, even though it’s cheaper for consumers…leaving you and our planet paying the price.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

As you process the Epstein files, remember:

Palantir received early funding from Jeffrey Epstein.
It was also backed by the CIA’s venture arm, In-Q-Tel.
Then came the defense contracts.
Then mass data analytics at scale.

This isn’t separate stories.
It’s one ecosystem: the Epstein network.

we live in a profoundly stupid country in the Dumb Times.
Hegseth to US military: if you get into MIT, we won't let you attend because of the risk that you will be exposed to ideas hostile to MAGA when you study there.

What does DHS do with unlimited resources and unchecked power?
 
They kill people and detain children.
 
DHS is the greatest threat to the homeland. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

“Democrats are trying to impose guardrails on how Trump’s fascist paramilitary force looks and operates, and how Trump can deploy his fascist paramilitary force, when the truth is that his fascist paramilitary force must be eliminated.”

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous
