Some personal news:

I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting.

Jordy Meiselas: Well, look, people want fighters. The messaging on the right has worked so effectively because the Republican politicians are meeting this generation of voters where they exist in the digital ecosystems. Now, they're lying to them…

I needed to hear this voice and these words at this moment. "This chapter will not be written simply by whoever occupies the Oval Office or wealthiest among us. The American story will be written by you, by we the people." Thank you, VP Kamala Harris. #NAACPImageAwards

A picture of James Baldwin with his quote, β€œThe most dangerous creation of any society is the man who has nothing to lose.”

James Baldwin was a thought-provoking writer with an understanding of the human condition when rights are suppressed & people are impoverished.

This quote makes me think how Trump & Musk could be creating a lot of men & women with nothing left to lose.

Are the optics of Musk holding court in the Oval Office while Trump sits quietly in the corner of the frame supposed to persuade us that Trump is in charge

Don't Gaslight Yourself. You're Right To Grieve What's Happening to America. I know what you're thinking.

The fact that you see how wrong this all is, means your faculties are intact, your mind is fully right, and your heart is working properly; you still have a soul doing what souls are supposed to do: keep you deeply human in profoundly inhumane times.

Tulsi Gabbard, Trump's nominee for Director of National Intelligence, has a history of cozying up to enemy dictators.

She's repeated Russian propaganda regarding Ukraine and met with Syria's Assad, refusing to call him an enemy of the U.S.
