IF YOU HAVEN’T READ IT DO YOURSELF A FAVOR!

After Donald Trump fired the first Black woman to be the Librarian of Congress, @underwood.house.gov joins The Weeknight to discuss.

I don’t care what Ozturk wrote. It doesn’t matter. This is America. We’re fucking free to have opinions of all sorts. It doesn’t matter. You don’t get to lock up people for bad thought. That’s against the fucking law and morals and fuck every last person arguing that this is a crime. Fuck all of em

‘This is un-American’: @repbonnie.bsky.social on the arrest of Newark mayor at ICE facility

In 3…2…

I suppose the New York Times will run daily stories on this until he resigns, unless Secretary of Defense is a less newsworthy job than a college administrator?

@joyannreid.bsky.social @cnn.com @msnbc.com how is drumft and his family making financial deals off of his presidency? How is he allowed to grift the us citizens? Please make this an investigation.

People need asylum from the U.S.

As it should be.

So my concrete ask is this: If you’re a Huntington Beach resident, or know someone who is, show up at the city council meeting tomorrow (4/15) and speak out against this blatant government overreach by hypocritical fucktwats who jerk themselves off at night to “keep the government out of my life.”

About 1 in every 60 people in El Salvador is incarcerated. That is more than twice the runner up (Cuba, which is around the same ballpark of estimates for North Korea) and more than three times the notoriously high rate in the United States. It is about on par with the gulag population under Stalin.

Since the Trump admin continues to claim Mr. Abrego Garcia is a gang member, I thought I'd take the time to put together a timeline, based on all the documents filed in court, which lays out all the "evidence" the government has ever offered. As you'll find out, there's very little "there" there!

Pleasantly surprised and proud of Harvard U!

Yup. They'll send a legitimately awful US citizen to CECOT, and anyone who criticizes it will be accused of supporting the awful person... and then they'll send someone slightly less awful. Eventually, they'll have established that they can send anyone.

The culture secretary claimed Labour is “spending an extra £31 billion every year in this parliament to protect the pension triple lock”. But £31bn is the expected increase in annual spending by the end of this parliament - ie, over a five-year period.

A photo of a sign telling people not to walk their dogs in an “Islamic area” has been shared online with claims such signs are becoming “more common”. But the image is from 2014 and we’ve seen no reports of the same or similar signs appearing recently.

My latest at Substack: Trump is putting his grubby little fingerprints on everything from Harvard (and all of academia) to the arts, history, public health, Social Security, the rule of law, and our private data via doge. It’s working out exactly how you’d expect… open.substack.com/pub/joyannre...

If you're not watching this hearing, I highly recommend it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuFy...

A post claiming the police have asked “British Jews to stay at home” due to “pro-Palestine marches near Synagogues” has been debunked as false by both the Metropolitan Police and the Community Security Trust.

Biden could have beat trump in this election, I was totally against him leaving the race. I begged him to stay in the race and when he finally quit the race I totally backed Harris and I was hopeful but had doubts she could beat trump because of the misogyny in our country. Dems let him/us down.

“Oh my God. That select sub-committee was a total joke.” Rep. @wassermanschultz.house.gov weighs in on the so-called House weaponization committee that ended in a whimper.

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy are highlighting a rift between Trumps' Silicon Valley supporters and his core MAGA base. The Weekend hosts unpack the biggest contradiction among Trump supporters.

“We deserve a seat at the table.” Marilyn Davis, who is one of the candidates running to be part of DNC leadership, shares how the Democratic Party can better embrace Black women.
