It's truly incredible how Trump has been able to shake down the oldest and most venerated American institutions with virtually no pushback. First it was the colleges. Then it was the big law firms. Now it's museums in an attempt to rewrite history

I understand the need to talk to voters about rising prices, but we need more politicians proposing plans to deal with these weather calamities. There is no economy without a stable environment

Nevada, please vote for Aaron Ford for your governor in 2026!
Senator Padilla was forcibly removed from DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s press conference in Los Angeles while attempting to ask a question.
Padilla was thrown down and handcuffed. A senator in his own state! (He has since been released.)
The Trump regime is out of control.
Economics is not a science. It is the art of presenting the decimation of nature as an act of creation when it is in fact an act of destruction

To my fellow men: We must teach younger men abt consent & the proper way to sexually aggress with women. With a sexual predator as our President & new celebrities being credibly accused of sexual assault every day, it is important to let our young men know that sexual violence is never acceptable
Fuck Bernie Sanders and fuck white Dems who decry identity politics. All politics is identity politics, ya schmucks!
I laugh every time I think about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Who the heck comes up with that idea? A teenager, a mutant, a ninja and a turtle, all in one! And there are four of them living in a sewer? Lol. Used to love that show
No gender is perfect, but a woman Prez would undoubtedly hv governed better than the disaster we have in the WH. A woman Prez would have been much more likely 2 govern 4 the collective good. It blows my mind that these things r not readily apparent, esp. given how many women run American households
There’s no decent Republican. And Trump is only different from his predecessors in his level of vulgarity and bombast
Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden and Barack Obama have some of the strongest psychological constitutions of anybody in America. Can you imagine the mental health stuff they have dealt with in the Trump era? They’re seeing all of their hard work for America evaporate in real time
Whenever someone says "shrink the federal government", all I hear is the old segregationist refrain about how the federal government is doing too much to protect the rights of vulnerable citizens
You can't trust a Trump Republican. You can't trust a Never Trump Republican. And you can't trust a Republican turned Democrat. They all have the same dirt in their heart
Shame on Kendrick Lamar forever for performing his nonsense at the Super Bowl. Shame on the people who watched the Super Bowl as well. Especially after the decision to remove the “End Racism” sign on the end zone. It’s so disappointing to see so many people not stand for anything
Here’s what we did today
With Trump blaming so much bad stuff on Black people being hired for important positions, it's more important than ever for adults of all races to remind the Black children in our community of their greatness. Of their vast intellectual horsepower
I saw someone post they firmly believe that “the worst animal is better than the best human” and I must say, some ppl have truly lost their minds when it comes to their deification of pets. It’s a problem in society when people start loving animals more than other humans
Willpower is a myth. And if you fail at a goal, it's not a failure of character. My latest: open.substack.com/pub/mariakon...
Free headphones for all! Lol, but seriously
The penal system, gun violence, the school to prison pipeline, and life circumstances that lead to homelessness and mental illness all remove the Black man from civic life. And it's all intentional (2/2)
When I look at all the homeless men on the streets, I can clearly see that the biggest threat to white supremacy is a Black man who is present and vibrant in his community. It's truly saddening when you realize that the Black man's removal from civic life is intentional (1/2)
Clarence Thomas' behavior is clearly unacceptable and unbecoming of a judge. But to place the blame for the level of immunity that Trump enjoys as a white man squarely at the feet of the lone Black man on the Supreme Court is ridiculous.
Black artists like Jay Z, Beyonce & Kendrick Lamar ought to be ashamed of themselves for associating with the NFL or agreeing to perform at an NFL football game. They know the damage football causes to Black ppl but all these artists care about is a dollar. Does anyone have any integrity?
To my fellow men, it is on us to talk to other men about hatred & violence toward women. It might be awkward to do, but we must talk abt it w each other. We must talk 2 men younger than us abt what it means 2 look at women as humans instead of just sets of body parts www.cnn.com/2024/12/22/u...
I've slowly come to appreciate a good meme
Today, I'm grateful for my memory and cognition still being sharp after the early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic. I have some loved ones and colleagues experiencing brain fog and memory loss due to multiple Covid infections, and it's so scary to witness www.newsweek.com/covid-memory...
Good on Governor Murphy for signing the "Freedom to Read" Act. As my hero Frederick Douglass once said, "Knowledge makes a man unfit to be a slave" www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-...
