Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts? Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

Counterpoint: Robert E. Lee was a treasonous loser who gladly slaughtered his fellow Americans in defense of slavery while being a mildly above average military tactician. He should’ve been hanged in Lexington.

Sometimes I think the “this is just a distraction” crowd just can’t handle the chaos, and that’s their way of cooping. But this is our reality. All of it. We don’t get to pick one crisis at a time. Walk and chew gum.

Sylvester Stewart, better known by his stage name Sly Stone and as the front man of the band Sly and the Family Stone, has died at age 82. The musician died "after a prolonged battle with COPD and other underlying health issues," according to a statement from Stone's family on Monday.

RIP, Sly. You were a real one.

I have always loved this clip of Sly and the Family Stone's medley on Ed Sullivan. Simply because Ed's strait laced audience cannot resist the enthusiasm of Sly and the band. What made Sly Stone good,was not only his enthusiasm, but his energy and always thinking what was best for the greater good.

Trump in 2020: We have to go by the laws. We can't move in the National Guard. I can call insurrection but there's no reason to ever do that, even in a Portland case. We can't call in the National Guard unless we're requested by a governor.

Trump’s @PressSec and the Republicans claiming they’re not increasing the deficit is as big of a whopper of a lie 🤥 as saying they won’t cut Medicaid. Don’t believe us? Ask Republican senator @RandPaul (in the second clip 🤔👇🏽)

Michelle and I are thinking of the entire Biden family. Nobody has done more to find breakthrough treatments for cancer in all its forms than Joe, and I am certain he will fight this challenge with his trademark resolve and grace. We pray for a fast and full recovery.

Let’s break this down—because the gaslighting is wild: 📌Oct 2022 – Biden signs EO to cut drug prices 📌Jan 2025 – Trump takes office and kills Biden’s EO to cut drug prices 📌May 2025 – Trump signs his own EO to lower drug prices Trump canceled Biden’s plan then brought it back w/his name on it.

This hits hard—and says everything about where we are right now. A Yale professor says he’s relocating to Canada to continue his democracy work. When asked why not stay in the U.S. and fight, he says he has two Black sons and he’s the son of a Holocaust survivor—and this is an “anti-Black moment”.

#ResistanceRoots Inventor Elijah McCoy was born on this day in 1844 in Colchester, Ontario, Canada. By the turn of the 20th century, McCoy had produced more patents than any other Black inventor up to that time. The phrase “the real McCoy” has been attributed to one of his inventions. /1
