Love Jack White’s response to Trump’s disgusting post about Rob Reiner and his wife Michelle

"Trump you disgusting, vile, egomaniac loser, child. Neither he nor any one of his followers can defend this vile, horrible insult to a beautiful artist who gave the world so much…."

Just catching up with the News Agents - Emily Maitlis so powerful speaking about Thursday’s horrific attack and making sure to create a clear divide between that and people who object to Israel’s actions in Gaza. She also says Islamophobia & antisemitism always go hand in hand. We need more of this.

Raskin: "The dictators of the world have got nothing to fear from this hearing. Republicans called it to attack our democratic allies in Europe. The star witness is not a human rights leader like Navalny, but a far-right pro-Putin politician who leads the UK Reform Party."

This was so good. I hope @maddow.msnbc.com plays it on her show tomorrow night.
Want to hear the speech that Isaiah Martin gave that shook republicans enough to arrest him?

Texas Republicans are pushing to redraw the state’s maps after pressure from the Trump administration.

Speaking the truth is powerful!!

Republicans can’t handle the TRUTH!!

All these media outlets presenting the story like someone showed up at a protest with tear gas and chucked it at cops rather than, you know, THROWING IT BACK.

Of course the Daily Mail would go with “unarmed black man tries to steal cop’s bullet.”

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

In economics, as in geopolitics, Trump fundamentally misunderstands the limits of American power. It is at the centre of everything he does. The markets, the only real impediment to him now, may be about to teach him how wrong he is.

Again and again, Trump misunderstands the limits of American power.
And as a result is taking us to a global financial precipice.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved
