Tulsa announces reparations for the 1921 ‘Black Wall Street’ massacre
It took decades of research by historians and journalists — and reports by state and federal commissions — to uncover the violence that claimed more than 300 Black lives.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident.

We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.

Compared to Trump’s rallies, these crowd sizes are HUGE. Guess folks prefer fighting for their rights over hearing recycled one-liners and bad merch pitches.

It’s stunning to me that the New York Times did not put the story on the bloodbath at the NIH, CDC, and FDA on its front page this morning.

Corey Booker still going strong after 20+ hours.

Constituents told him to do more and he listened.

History in the making as we witness the unstoppable dedication of an elected official at our most darkest hour.

Watch him live on Youtube right now! 🔥💙

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women.

More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications.

I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.
