“Ed Martin is a minor figure. But his defeat is a significant sign that Trump’s power to make the government accept his lies is ebbing.” @dfriedman.bsky.social www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Looking forward to seeing @booker.senate.gov tomorrow in Nashville #standup #goodtrouble

Big week for Villanova alums. ✝️🏀

So he keeps running away from tariffs with saying today I have some room. He’s clueless and he will destroy us.

He simply doesn’t care about you or me and will keep on hurting us. You elected him and now we’re leaving the dream you wanted.

Simple, he’s a con-artist!

Checking up on some of my @substack articles and this one from @michaelharriot.bsky.social about @joyannreid.bsky.social is a true gem 💎 He included the Trump message about her and calls him the Bull Connor of prez - his words of her make me cry of the pain black women endure 😓 Joy thank u

The Tennessee Legislature aimed to challenge a 1982 ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court that established a right to education for all students. Republican lawmakers still hope to overturn that.

Two majority Black cities in Alabama now have Black representation in Congress because of court-ordered redistricting. The progress comes as President Trump pulls back federal diversity initiatives.

The Trump administration, U.S. District Judge Fernando Rodriguez, Jr., ruled, does not "possess the lawful authority under the (Alien Enemies Act), and based on the Proclamation, to detain Venezuelan aliens, transfer them within the United States, or remove them from the country."

The Trump administration is walking back its decision to revoke the visas of hundreds of international students across the country for unexplained reasons, including dozens in the St. Louis region.

Hackman was also in the advanced stages of Alzheimer's disease and likely had not eaten for a long time, according to the new report. The actor, 95, had been in poor health for some time.

Congrats to @jonathancapehart.bsky.social for great run of The Saturday Show and The Sunday Show. Regular viewers. Sorry MSNBC is moving him to 7am Sat/Sun, but this is life in the media.

Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy has introduced legislation to get rid of the Department of Education after Donald Trump's executive order. Of course a Senator from one of the least educated states supports this. 🤦‍♀️

People are props in Trump’s world @joyannreid.bsky.social on @donlemonofficial.bsky.social

New from me: A school district in Pennsylvania voted against adding a Black author's book about the 1921 Tulsa race massacre to the curriculum. Then, the community decided to do something about it.

CALIFORNIA WATER UPDATE: The Army Corps knew the water wouldn’t reach LA—but they followed Trump’s orders and dumped it anyway. He wasted billions of gallons for a photo op. Hope farmers don’t ask where their precious water went when they need it this summer—the clown they voted for sabotaged them.

Trump is going to help GOP pass Russia as one of the extreme movement in the world. MAGA.

No further debate—Trump’s DEI policy is clearly racist. The Pentagon is flagging for removal, historic photos of Black & brown heroes who served, claiming they “promote DEI.” The military was segregated until 1948. Black people served while facing racism. Where was the DEI? Erasure is the point.

‘You’re always on edge – it has consequences’: the extraordinary drama about working in an Amazon-style warehouse

Very heartening to see foreign officials mocking him for being a fucking clown. Feels like the garlic to his vampire

At 5 pm Fri, the Social Security Admin announced that it will withhold the *entire* Social Security benefits of overpaid seniors & people w/disabilities, even if not their fault—reversing a Biden-era reform that limited repayment to 10% of the monthly benefit. This will cause needless suffering.

@chriswarcraft.bsky.social Thank you for standing up and keep on fighting

Donald Trump is slightly more popular than he was in 2017 and less popular than every other modern president. Gift link: wapo.st/41ny5ir

The Trump administration has just announced that all college financial aid programs, scholarships, prizes, housing, and graduation ceremonies that help Black or Latino students are now considered to be illegal. The Education Department accuses colleges of discriminating against white students.

Hey friends, I decided to leave MSNBC. You can read why in my new piece on Substack. ⬇️ open.substack.com/pub/glennkir...

Have you seen the White House official facebook post today? @joyannreid.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com @donlemonofficial.bsky.social

UPDATE: A purge of experienced career staff has begun at NIH. The staff was just informed that Deputy Director Lawrence Tabak, who has worked at NIH for 25 years is "retiring." Grant funding remains frozen, in violation of two federal court orders.

1. Edward Coristine, a 19-year-old member of DOGE launched an image-sharing website in 2021 that featured custom “shitposting” URLs that redirected to content hosted on his site. URLs that redirected to Coristine’s site referenced the sale of child sexual abuse material, racial slurs, and rape.
