@DanaBashCNN @InsidePolitics This is the most disgraceful, propagandistic, one-sided coverage I have seen.

Today: Destruction, violence and hate overtake college campuses across the country with Jewish students feeling unsafe at their own schools. It is unacceptable, and harkening back to the 1930s in Europe. Our @InsidePolitics show open, here.

A lot of y’all are like: I care deeply for human rights and believe every life is precious and needs to be protected. The indiscriminate murder of civilians hurts my soul. I wish for peace and equality for everyone.* *Except for Palestinians.

@CHAPOTRAPHOUSE Love to Matt and the fam.

@soulkhan Wooow.

this is absolutely humiliating on every single level imaginable.

This Supreme Court killed Roe v. Wade, Affirmative Action, the separation of church and state, the Clean Air Act, Miranda rights, made it legal for businesses to discriminate against LGBTQ+ people, and blocked student loan cancellation. Fuck that undemocratic clown car.

Henry Kissinger is 100 years old. Another unfortunate reminder that karma doesn’t exist.

Saw a man strolling through the heavy haze in Manhattan today smoking a cigarette. Heard his lungs screaming as I passed him but a part of me couldn’t help but respect the double-down.

Abolitionist John Brown was born May 9, 1800.

This is how those in power choose to organize things. They don’t want to solve healthcare or homelessness, they just want people suffering out of their sight lines.

Instead of compassion we turn to punishment and violence. We turn to the carceral system. We turn to things that only exacerbate these problems.

On the second day of Mental Health Awareness Month a man having a mental health crisis was choked to death on the subway as people watched and cheered.

Jordan Neely was a New Yorker. He was a person. When he began to suffer from mental illness the city’s social safety net failed him, as it had failed countless others. When he exhibited signs of his mental illness in public he was murdered on the F train.

Very funny to see all the people who paid for blue checks complaining that they still can't get anyone to like their tweets. Folks out here like: "What the hell, I paid so you would lower the hoop to 8 feet and I still can't dunk!"

52 year old man buys three racks of Bud Light and shoots them from 10 feet away because they have rainbows on them.

Some of y’all are so damn soft. Soft and racist. A white girl talks trash and it’s fun and fiery. A black girl talks trash and it’s classless. Same old race-based, pearl-clutching nonsense.

Pretty remarkable that America temporarily constructed a safety net during Covid — including major health care coverage, food benefits, anti poverty funding for families & kids, etc — and then just systematically and slowly demolished it

@fatstevebuscemi It’s great.

crying happy tears bc that joke is one i’ve been terrified to post on social media and the response is so validating and makes me feel like i’m doing the right things and telling the right stories.

But…but this opens the door to all prior presidents being prosecuted for their crimes. Don’t threaten me with a good time, pal.

They won’t even entertain the idea that maybe fewer guns means fewer people using those guns for mass murder. They say it’s a mental health issue, yet vote against all healthcare expansions. What else is there to say at this point? We are a diseased country.
