Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Not to put too fine of a point on this, but if I spent the last few months putting innocent people in concentration camps and the pope died basically three seconds after I met him, I would not continue life apace, I would not immediately clock back in at the fascism factory.

PEPFAR has saved over 26 million lives worldwide since 2003. PEPFAR is a bipartisan program - but its critical work is at risk because of Trump's funding freeze.

On National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, I'm calling on Trump to unfreeze PEPFAR now. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/05/h...

My latest.

As journalists and writers, we have a duty to use language that is accurate and describes our current reality.

I’m no longer going to talk about DEI/Anti-DEI.

Let’s be clear. We are facing racial purges and re-segregation.

But seriously if you’re still looking for presents, go to the local bookstore and buy some books. Everybody you know wants books. Everyone you don’t know what books. All the people want books. Your cat wants books so that you sit down and they can sit on you while you try to read.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are two spoiled trust fund children who think they’re brilliant because they have 💰.

Elon is a bit smarter because he figured out that government contracts can bilk people while Trump stuck with the mob model of finance.

Why isn’t the media harping on the fact that Trump won with the smallest margin in a quarter century and got less than half the vote? This should be a 24/7 news story. Are they afraid of Donald, or complicit?
