I took this photo in Cape Town when I hosted Cong John Lewis on his return to South Africa. He and Archbishop Tutu couldn’t wait to embrace one another. Brothers in struggle. Benders of the arc of justice. Joined in eternity. They’ve done the hard work and leave the rest to us

All of this was predictable. Israel’s reckless escalation by attacking civilian infrastructure. Iran’s response that expands the regional combatants. And most predictable of all - Trump’s bombastic cluelessness that will spiral us into cataclysm.

Off the back of ‘Bonnie And Clyde’, ‘Shampoo’ & ‘Heaven Can Wait’ WARREN BEATTY was allowed to co-write, produce, direct & star in this fundamentally boring 3hr plus yawn fest. Incredibly it was nom’d for 12 Oscars & won 3. REDS (1981)

Listening to Markwayne Mullin who is proving to be as devastatingly stupid and cruel as Kristi Noem. Looks like a slam dunk confirmation for republicans and Fetterman.

It’s impossible to get through this Cesar Chavez story without getting physically ill. Shaking. One of the most excruciating ever. Damn. Hearts out to these brave women. “In the end, they said that the story of Chavez’s movement was their story, too — of the women who marched beside the men, worked in the fields, took care of the children. The movement, they said, was more than one man. nytimes.com/2026/03/18/us/… via @NYTimes

Tens of millions of dollars in Super PAC money flowed into Illinois’ primary race: crypto, AI, and dark money PACs that hide where the money came from. AIPAC spent $22 million through shell PACs and never even talked about Israel. Sadly, we’re going to see it in our primaries as well. My opponent accepts AIPAC's support. I don’t. Dark money erodes public trust in our democratic process. That’s why I passed the strongest local law in the country – so donors have to sign their names on IEs in NYC. It’s time to get dark money out of politics.

AIPAC has spent $22m to boost pro-Israel candidates in Illinois Dem primaries. But its ads focus on anything but Israel, & it’s mostly using shell PACs to conceal the $ trail, reflecting the increasing unpopularity of the group (& of Israel) on the left. politico.com/news/2026/03/1…

It’s possible to hold in your brain that Joe Kent is a toxic figure who parties with bigots, antisemites, and has corruptly been on the payroll of shadiest interests - while still recognizing his resignation over the war as a major defection from the MAGA war machine

Rep. Pete Sessions: "I believe that what these 2,500 Marines would be is to secure the island. The island is not, in my opinion, boots on the ground in combat circumstances. It's not like inside Iran in the cities."

Did we have a single defection at such senior levels of national security under Biden during the entire Gaza complicity? Nope. They’ve all just gone on podcasts after the fact to express “concerns”.

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

How glorious to be a Patrick, at St Patrick’s Cathedral, on St Patty’s Day! There’s no solidarity on earth like the solidarity of the Irish who make common cause with all who fight to get out from under the boot of oppression. Éirinn go Brách!

Something we have rarely seen during the Trump era: a senior official resigning in protest — in this case, resigning to protest the war against Iran.

If I wake up to another plan from Dem to “cut middle class taxes”... We live in an era of gross corruption, greatest concentration of capital, diminishing investments in healthcare and housing. No one needs Dems to be sounding like we’re still responding to Ronald Reagan
