You don't do politics — but you came to the airport at 2AM for an 8AM flight. TSA is understaffed. ICE is at airports armed, not helping anyone. Lines in Atlanta, Houston, NYC, Denver, Chicago — all insane. Politics is doing you. Tap in. #ClockIt

In 2022 when gas prices spiked — billionaires got PAID. White households: 87% of profits. Black households: 3%. Hispanic households: 1%. A wealth transfer hiding in a gas price. If that's what happened then, think about what's happening now. #ClockIt

$16.5B spent on war by day 12. 3 days of that = eliminating severe malnutrition globally + saving 1.5M children's lives a year. But Congress couldn't extend healthcare subsidies. Eugene and I did the math on this week's episode of #ClockIt.

In the 1990s, a remarkable wave of Black sitcoms and sketch comedy reshaped American television. Shows like "In Living Color" and "Living Single" reflected a wide range of Black life and helped broaden how millions of viewers understood Black experiences. That moment, and the long history that helped make it possible, are at the core of @GeoffRBennett's new book, "Black Out Loud."

I hope no one needs an MRI this year. The world's largest producer of liquified helium is in Qatar and is shut off. We just got a notice that our supply for the year will be at least cut in half. No one could have predicted this (unless they thought about it).

Just in: Bruce Springsteen authorizes ACLU to use 'Born in the USA' in a new ad campaign that debuts as the organization figures in a Supreme Court case that could deny birthright citizenship to children born in the United States to parents without permanent legal status.

Strange situation where we await a statement from Iran to check whether there's any truth to what US president is saying.

When Obama sent Iran $400m + $1.3bn in interest in 2016 Trump called it "insane" and he and others spent a decade mocking the idea of "pallets of cash" even though it was Iran's own money, American prisoners were released, courts were likely to require the U.S. payment, and Iran had just agreed to significant and verified reductions and restrictions on its nuclear program for 15+ years. Now Trump is giving Iran up to ten times that amount of revenue--one of the most significant measures of sanctions relief provided to the Islamic Republic since its founding--in exchange for marginal and temporary relief from the big increase in oil prices his actions have caused, without any concessions from Tehran, and even as Iran continues to target the United States, its allies, and world oil supplies. No way to read as anything other than desperate recognition of the situation Trump's own actions have created and the lack of available alternatives for dealing with it.

🚨U.S. to allow Iran to get ~14 billion dollars (!!!) in oil revenue 🚨This is a huge financial concession to Iran by the U.S. 🚨It is the first time U.S. is buying Iranian oil since 1996 🚨It's all happening in the middle of a war against...Iran
