"I am just telling you the f&%king truth."

At some point a professor who has otherwise made a respectable impression when invited to these popular news shows will completely lose his cool and shout "We are so f&%ked!"

That person may end up being me. CNN? MSNBC? Fox?

Come on, @msnbc.com , we would love to see @jimacosta.bsky.social have a time slot on your network.
Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

ICYMI, new piece/thread from me:
The ugly celebration of mass deportations by Trump, the WH, and Karoline Leavitt is vile on its own. But it also has a purpose: It's a pretext for Trump to vastly expand his powers. That's what the "invasion" language is really about.

New piece from me:

Trump Aide Karoline Leavitt’s Creepy Flattery of Him Takes a Dark Turn
Social media posts by Trump’s new press secretary reveal the irresolvable paradox—and the massive scam—at the heart of his immigration policies.

🚨 Today Target said it will end its three-year DEI goals, stop reports to external diversity-focused groups like the Human Rights Campaign's Corporate Equality Index and end a program focused on carrying more products from Black- or minority-owned businesses.
You guys know what to do?!

Who else thinks daytime MSNBC, with Andrea Mitchell, Chris Jansing, and Katy Tur, are absolute garbage and completely unwatchable? 🤚🤚

I've had enough.
Might as well watch Fox, or nothing at all.

This is Carolyn Edwards. She was one of the first officers attacked and knocked out on January 6th. She bravely testified before the January 6th committee. She is one of the bravest people I know and she deserves better. (She posted this publicly on her FB page which is why I'm sharing publicly)

I appear on @CNN often. And if saying this means my days at CNN are over, then fuck it. CNN, removing @Acosta.bsky.social from his am show is cowardly bullshit. Acosta is an independent, unafraid host. To demote him to appease the crybaby in the White House is pathetic. Shame on u CNN. Don’t do it.

BREAKING NEWS:

Donald Trump orders all federal employees identified as DEI hires to placed on leave by 5pm.

The order is said to target trans federal employees and some people of Color.

This is arbitrary and evil. No other way to describe it.
