If you're furious at the New York Times for the Olivia Nuzzi piece, watch my film Mr. Jones starring James Norton, Vanessa Kirby, on the long history of the NYT abusing power. They refused to let us show their articles covering up Stalin’s famine in Ukraine. youtu.be/wtWSyFNT9qY?...

Still in shock that the guys who want to inspect the genitals of every teenager in America might not be doing so out of purely administrative purposes!

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

To be clear: most 2019 dem candidates supported extending healthcare covg options to undocumented immigrants, but those policies never became law.
Today - there are no democratic proposals that include such coverage.
Claiming Dems shut down the govt over healthcare covg for migrants is FALSE

Dear Ds in CA/NJ/VA - please vote on Day 1, or as early as you. When you vote early your names comes off the campaign GOTV rolls allowing them to move on to lower propensity voters, which increases D turnout and makes it more likely we win. Voting early = another way to help us win. #Voteearly

This is the lead story in the New York Times. If you're in the business of communicating, whether through journalism, commentary, or art, this is the five-alarm fire. People are going to remember who spoke up and who stayed conveniently silent or postured about "neutrality."

Here’s my write up on the most racist decision to come out of the Supreme Court in a while. The court approved of Trump’s racial profiling of Latinos with Brett Kavanaugh saying being harassed based on the color of your skin is “common sense.”
My latest in @thenation
The Supreme Court Just Gave the OK to Racial Profiling
The court’s ruling allowing ICE to resume its indiscriminate round-ups of LA’s Latino residents can only be described as one thing.

Netflix just gave Gavin Newsom 2 million for the redistricting fight and made a deal with Sesame Street. New episodes will air there and the backlog of old episodes will Be free to watch.

Netflix picked a side. I will keep my subscription.

Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, who resigned from the CDC, revealed that RFK Jr. has NEVER been briefed by CDC experts on measles, flu, or Covid:

“No one from my center has ever briefed him on any of those topics…He’s getting his information from somewhere”

The PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is planning to use the US military to invade US cities that vote Democratic because, in addition to raping children, two things that animate him most are rectifying narcissistic injury and hating Black people.

Because nothing says “you should feel free to come visit Washington” like standing in front of dozens of armed soldiers next to a guy who thinks women shouldn’t be able to vote 🙃

The girl was asking for it. Her skirt was too short.
Trump blames Ukraine for getting invaded: "It's not a war that should've been started. You don't do that. You don't take on a nation that's 10 times your size ... they took probably a lot of money too."

if American voters ever decide they want a functional government again, I'd love to see this happen here.
A Canadian province is taking legal action for job applicants who are 'ghosted' by companies after multiple rounds of interviews.

Companies in Ontario will soon be forced to inform candidates about their hiring status within 45 days of their final interview.

Today the White House started by demanding a Nobel Peace Prize and ended by scrubbing unflattering history from the Smithsonian. If this were a Democratic White House, the press would be calling for removal from office.

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

I don’t believe a single goddamn thing coming out of this administration. This is absolute gaslighting madness. It’s as if we’re watching toddlers run through the White House screaming and smearing Gogurt into the carpet and the entire world has to pretend it’s the Lincoln-Douglas debates.
