@patrickwitty @sjforman138 @PulitzerPrizes Amazing work by Mr Forman! Rarely discussed are the terrible physical injuries suffered by Dr Landsmark at the hands of this racist

50 years ago today, Stanley Forman @sjforman138 photographed an anti-busing protestor attacking a man with an American flag in Boston. "The Soiling of Old Glory" won Forman his second consecutive @PulitzerPrizes.

@anyonewantchips Was Trump’s Scottish-born mother a legal resident or citizen when he was born? She came to the U.S. as an uneducated scullery maid and his father was the son of a German national who was banished for failing to serve in the army. I think ol Don isn’t too American born it seems

As the Supreme Court is poised to rule on Trump’s request to end birthright citizenship - it might be a good time to mention the fact that Ivana was not a US citizen when Don Jr, Ivanka & Eric were born, and Melania was not a US citizen when Barron was born.

@NewBlackMan @angiemartoccio I listen to her every week! Whether it’s her, the 5th Dimension or other artists interpretations of her songs, they all bring joy 

One of my favorite artists... Does Anyone Remember Laura Nyro? | @angiemartoccio She was one of the most influential singer-songwriters of her time in the late Sixties, but the industry never really got her. Fans, friends, and family tell us her remarkable story rollingstone.com/music/music-fe… | @RollingStone

@TeamTalaricoHQ @isaiahrmartin So he didn’t vote for Bill Clinton, Al Gore, John Kerry, both Obama terms, Hillary, Biden or Kamala. Someone tell SAS(S) to take many many seats

.@stephenasmith: You’re down in Texas and as a right-winger, you're about to go left because of what you're seeing? Voter: I'm gonna vote for Mr. Talarico, man, 100%. I haven't voted Democratic since I was 20 years old. I am absolutely disgusted with the way things are going. James Talarico is a different deal. He speaks from the heart. I know some of the people he knows. The guy is the real deal, man.

@deasia_paige Why is it so hard to call human females WOMEN?!?! A female is defined as of, relating to, or being the sex that typically has the capacity to bear young or produce eggs. Woman is defined as an adult female person. Recognize the humanity of women by calling them WOMEN

@melodymercadotv Lord of the Flies Elementary School

No teachers, just AI: A new elementary school is opening in Chicago this fall. The school says students can master core subjects in two hours a day. Researchers say the evidence for replacing teachers with tech is still shaky blockclubchicago.org/2026/03/25/an-…

@Watchman_motto @mcmansionhell One full bath for 3 bedrooms is a dealbreaker today

The thing about these old homes is that the floor plan is always genius. You may think that you can come up with a better floor plan, but even modern architects have a hard time doing it right. It’s also not intuitive why this is so nice, and many people have a hard time seeing it in their mind’s eye when looking at a print.

@JStein_WaPo So based on the $65bil of spending just for the last 2 weeks— they are asking for roughly 6 weeks of funding. SIX WEEKS when they know this is going to drag on for months if not years

SCOOP: The Pentagon asked the White House today for more than *$200 billion* for the Iran war supplemental, sources say Some White House aides think Congress won't support b/c it's so big Will tee up giant battle in Congress

@wmataGM @NoMaBIDPrez @RAMWdc So what is the closest metrobus /metro stop?

Finally made it to the most popular place in town, Eebee’s! It lives up to the hype. Happy for Emily as this place is clearly a labor of love. Plus maybe the coolest restroom you will ever see. Support all our restaurants and bars as they are a vital part of our community.

@TheDejaKing @AnnaBower It’s a near certainty they broke federal law— but who heads the DOJ?!?!

@AnnaBower Sidenote, do we know why this man is being deposed? I keep seeing him giving these thinly-veiled racist, near-criminal answers about choices he made in a government job he obviously wasn’t qualified for Is he being arrested? Is someone being sued? Who is doing the investigating?

Q: You don’t regret that people might’ve lost important income to support their lives? A: No, I think it was more important to reduce the federal deficit. Q: Ok. Did you reduce the federal deficit? A: No, we didn’t.

@reelandroll @Annie_Wu_22 Coogler works with women— human beings with XX chromosomes. A female can be of any species— mammal, reptile; winged or 4 legged. It is insulting to refer to women as females— particularly when discussing professional abilities & achievements. It shows a lack of respect & misogyny

Ryan Coogler working with female cinematographers in each of his films is an oft repeated titbit, but it is worth repeating because it is just very awesome.

@alanhe You skipped the key part— Senator Sheehy BROKE HIS HAND

Senator Sheehy joined Capitol Police in lifting up and ejecting anti war protestor Brian McGinnis from a SASC subcommittee hearing. McGinnis is a Green Party candidate running for Senate in N.C. An antiwar activist filmed the video below:

@KBAndersen @henryfingjames The Short Fingered Vulgarian is a quintessential Spy Magazine turn of phrase that I shall never forget!

At Spy we covered Trump correctly and, as it turned out, presciently. Lately these two bits have seemed especially apt and well-aged —a bit from our first issue in 1986 and a brilliant cartoon by Bruce Handy (@henryfingjames) for our 1990 NBC TV show. youtu.be/oCN_uISlJ-k?si…

@PaulJacobsMedia Who is “WE”?? Over 62 mil ppl voted for Hillary— she curb stomped Mr. Rides His Golf Cart Fatly by 2.3 mil more votes — let’s be very specific here, white voters are the reason we are here today.

Two reactions to Hillary’s response: 1. Holy crap, she’s a freaking powerhouse. And a brilliant thinker. 2. We elected the wrong person in 2016

@BET The African continent is comprised of dozens of nations w/distinct cultures, languages, religions & practices. It is the ultimate in lazy reportage to say Jackson is wearing “traditional African attire.” What nation, what people? BET should be ashamed to post this tweet

Dressed in traditional African attire, Samuel L. Jackson delivered a moving tribute to Rev. Jesse Jackson at the 2026 NAACP Image Awards, reminding the room — and the culture — to “keep hope alive” and never forget that we are somebody. bet.com/article/bez7tu…

@theGrio PS— Grace Jones is alive folks

According to the 'Melania' doc’s producer, Grace Jones and Prince’s estate refused to clear songs for the film’s soundtrack. Read more #OnTheGrio: ow.ly/nLlJ50YmcKp

@samstein NYS has an excellent AG in Tish James, and state murder charges are certainly appropriate where law enforcement ofcrs knowingly left a blind disabled non- English speaking refugee out in the Feb. cold of Buffalo far from home — would likely not be able to get home. Pure evil

Still can't really process that border patrol made the decision to leave a nearly-blind refugee outside a donut shop five miles from his house. And that he then (as could have easily been imagined) died. And that there likely won't be any accountability for this.

@JoyceWhiteVance Depraved heart murder— reckless disregard to the consequences of their actions of leaving a blind man without the ability to communicate in English 5miles from his home. I hope the state AG charges those federal agents with all deliberate speed

Our government dropped a blind man on the side of the road, miles from home. Those agents may not have pulled a trigger, but they might as well have.

@eeneryaj BERWYN!!! ( svengoolie Berwyn gif needed)

If you from Chicago & don’t know who Svengoolie is then yo ass is not from here
