Tim Walz: "It's almost unimaginable that he's got Milei in there, giving him $20 billion, so that they can undercut us and China can buy their soybeans from them. And now China has learned they can replace our markets."

@msnbc.com #Democrats. MSNBC needds to check out what Marjorie Taylor Greene is saying on social media and what she’s saying on places like CNN and then maybe you’ll think about giving her such a voice every hour, let people know what she is talking about in her other voice. Discuss both!

#Democrats @crockett.house.gov #blackSky Why is anyone asking Democrats why they voted "no" on honoring Charlie Kirk? Why ask a question you know the answer to? Democrats should not even answer that question... I want to hear someone ask, "Why did you vote "yes" to homor Charlie Kirk?"

#Democrats #BlackSky hmmm...House adopted a resolution honoring the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk...OF COURSE, THEY HAD TO INCLUDE - and condemning political violence...
Lest we forget -The fight to make Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday a holiday took 32 😗YEARS of a lot of campaigning!

Why is anybody even questioning this! Why is that question being asked when you already know the answer. That question should not have even been answered. Did they question anybody who voted yes, why they voted yes?

Crockett: "I'm gonna honor someone who decided they were going to proclaim I was involved in the 'great white replacement'? Yeah, I'm not honoring that ... it's unfortunate more of my colleagues even on my side couldn't see the amount of harm this man was attempting to inflict upon our communities"

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read.

They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

Yep. Stop demanding Black people to rescue you when you're the one who shot yourself in the foot.

Obama and other Black people are not your magical negroes.

He told us in 2016 what was at stake. Didn't listen.

He told us again in 2024. Doubled down on petulance.

Too eager to punish Dems, but now they're demanding that one out of office for almost a decade to be their magical Negro superhero.

Own your shit. Choices were clear.

Out of all the important things going down, that we need to know about, why do we need to hear about what Democrats are and are not doing? Why is that relevant today? Anybody out there?

Think about it: The death of expertise in the age of information. Why do we trust influencers over scientists? All thoughts welcome on the erosion of reliable authority and its implications for society. #InformationLiteracy

Exploiting our emotions in order to influence, manipulate and radicalize is a tale as old as time, y'all. The difference now is the reach these strategies have thanks to the tech we use.

TL;DR: Librarians, information literacy and media mindfulness are more important than ever.
