Plus Joy and Lester Holt? Looks like the slide deck of a Power Point presentation at an employment discrimination webinar. Not a good look @msnbc.com
Not a good look at all.
A betrayal of your loyal audience & a disaster for your network.

Dark skies reflect my sadness at the firings of all the humans that help keep the #GreatLakes as healthy as possible. Tonight I mourn the loss of the 14 @usfws.bsky.social employees that kept the invasive sea lamprey at bay. My fishery will be hurt. 😢😢🌊🌊

Aretha Franklin famously made Goffin-King’s “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman” one of her signature songs, but she also recorded their composition “Oh No Not My Baby” on her 1970 album ‘Spirit In The Dark.’

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

As UK's new Labour government negotiates the surrender of Parthenon marbles to Greece, here are unpaywalled links to my two articles on the real-world consequences of repatriating the Benin artworks to Nigeria, one from 2022 www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...
Who Benefits When Western Museums Return Looted Art?
The repatriation of stolen objects has become a ritual of self-purification through purgation—but who it really serves is less clear than it might seem.

As I think of these men who ought to feel so grateful - instead raging and raving at those who have so much less reason for gratitude - I marvel at our human ability to convert happiness to misery. Open the fucking bottle, drink it now, and seize the joy while you can. END
