Day of remembrance and reflection 40 years after the Philadelphia MOVE bombing @claycane.bsky.social @reeciecolbert.bsky.social #ClayNation #HistoryWithClay 6abc.com/post/40-year...

SiriusXM's The #ReecieColbertShow with Erica Savage is not new to this, it's true to this. Now in year 3 of rocking @urbanviewradio.bsky.social every Saturday, we're still bringing unfiltered takes on politics & culture. Join the conversation live from 2PM-4PM EST or catch the replay on the SXM app.

“I could explain Hasan Piker’s politics to you, but that’s entirely irrelevant. The bold, all caps, underlined point is that a high profile, US-born American citizen was detained on Sunday by ICE for, it would seem, the crime of speech.”

Buttigieg: I’m not even an elected official or running for anything— I’m here. I can’t help but notice a lot of people who are elected officials aren’t. There’s a reason for that. They don’t want to have to explain this stuff

Don’t take my word for it—ask Betsy DeVos. Congress is about to roll out a tax shelter scheme to fund school vouchers for wealthy kids already in private school. It would force vouchers into every state. And they’re going to cut Medicaid for families everywhere to pay for it.

@luriedanielfavors.bsky.social I listen to my Cancer sista. I hope you could tell me where you get your body butter and deodorant. It's hard out here finding my Black owned companies. Trying to support. Thanks

@rolandsmartin.bsky.social. Can you help make this livestream possibly happen? @reeciecolbert.bsky.social and @claycane.bsky.social, conversation tonight with @repjasmine.bsky.social and @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social. I don't live in the DMV. I'd love to know more about our Congress/DNC. Thanks

@reeciecolbert.bsky.social @claycane.bsky.social, I know you both will be doing a conversation tonight with @repjasmine.bsky.social and @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social. Is it possible to do a live stream? I ask, while I don't live in the DMV, I'd love to know more about our Congress & DNC. Thanks

Portland, Maine reporting in!

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

Honestly, me too.

You know why racism is stupid? Everybody likes money. White folks especially like money. Diversity pulls in numbers. They wanna take it away. Now everybody lose money but especially them. I get it but it's really stupid.

Thank you Kathe Hambrick, Executive Director of The Amistad Research Center for joining us this morning. If you want to donate to their good work check out: www.saveblackhistory.org

This isn’t a read. This is a Pimp slap 🤭🤭🤭 www.facebook.com/share/v/18kg...

Pushback works, part gazillion: "Here are the facts: DOGE moved forward with plans to close multiple field offices. Then, without public notice or explanation, they reversed their plans. Now they are trying to pretend like they were never planning to close the offices." popular.info/p/how-the-so...

AOC: It is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we've been sent here to protect social security, protect medicaid, and protect medicare.

And there it is. While yall look through these incomplete JFK files, we'll be over here just casually erasing history and science. Nothing to see here

MAGA Republican Harriet Hageman, the woman who defeated Liz Cheney for the Wyoming at-large seat in the U.S. House of Representatives, was mercilessly booed and heckled at a Town Hall event Wednesday after she defended Elon Musk and DOGE.

If we really want to “make America healthy again,” we’d have Medicare for All.

I had a surprise young constituent in my Dallas office yesterday — precious Ms. Lilli! Special thanks to her amazing family for their advocacy and for reminding us all on why protecting our access to quality education MATTERS!

"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.” —FDR, 1944

Moore: The only certainty we’ve gotten from this administration is uncertainty… When you’re using tools like tariffs as an ideology rather than as policy, changing numbers every day—that creates a level of uncertainty that not only drives markets crazy but also drives all business influence crazy.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I am here today to urge Canadians to avoid travel to the United States if at all possible and to call on our government to stand up for our citizens who are being denied their rights through arbitrary detention in the United States.

"Jocelynn Rojo Carranza took her life after experiencing months of relentless bullying from her sixth grade classmates over her family's immigration status, with some students even threatening to contact the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)." www.latintimes.com/11-year-old-...

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

Thank you @kcvotes.bsky.social and @rolandsmartin.bsky.social for giving @electiontruth.bsky.social a platform. When the (great)grandchildren of enslaved people under racist terror for 400+ years smell something burning, everyone better pay attention. #verifythevote www.youtube.com/watch?v=6G8f...

Guys...

WSJ Editorial Board: "None of this reflects well on the Bondi Justice Department. Rather than accept a meeting with the leader of the most important U.S. Attorney’s office, the new AG passed the buck to her acting deputy. That deputy then showed awful political judgment" www.wsj.com/opinion/dani...

Shocker of all shockers: Pete Hegseth is in way over his head and embarrassed himself in his first trip overseas as the secretary of defense. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Check out MAGA farmers who are surprised that the leopards are eating their face. From @rolandsmartin.bsky.social https://youtu.be/W1ZrYYgOM-U?si=N4waQUfBeAUe5I-J

Statement from the Musk-appointed head of SSA celebrating the deletion of research grants studying the financial security of the older adults and the disabled. Just one way that the richest man in the world is dictating societal priorities. www.ssa.gov/news/press/r...

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

MUSK LOSES BIG IN GERMANY Germany’s CDU/CSU wins big, while the far-right AfD underperforms in second—despite backing from Elon Musk and JD Vance. AfD is now likely to be completely shut out of the governing coalition.
