Roy Wood Jr.: 'Logic Isn't the Weapon. It Might Need to Be Love'
Roy Wood Jr. talks about his book, 'The Man of Many Fathers,' doing comedy in a polarized country and what he learned in radio and on 'The Daily Show'
"Logic isnβt necessarily going to be the weapon, it might need to be love. And then from that, you hope that they find some logic. But just yelling and berating people, done that for eight years."

'No Kings' Protest Organizers Aren't Afraid of Trump's Court Jesters
Republicans are attempting to brand the 'No Kings' protests as part of a left-wing terror movement ahead of planned peaceful demonstrations.
ββitβs very clear that theyβre lashing out because they fear this kind of peaceful, organized people power, and thatβs true of authoritarian regimes all over the world,β says @ezralevin.bsky.social , co-founder of @indivisible.orgβ - via @nikkimcr.bsky.social www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
