HOLY HELL!

Look at what’s happening in LA!

Someone call the National Guard!

Oh, wait… that’s Jan 6… my bad 😳

Hey @JoeBiden want my vote? Do something about guns in America. I don’t think you have much to lose…

@anthonyha @TechCrunch @EniacVC Congrats, @anthonyha! Big changes ahead!

I want Trump to be removed so that every 5th grader who asks “why was Mike Pence President for 2 days” hears a story about why white supremacy & fascism are threats to democracy. Millions of students in the next decades will ask this question and will know to reject fascism.

Absolutely losing it over the fact folks think this asshole’s name is “Via Getty”

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Today, domestic terrorists attacked a foundation of our democracy: the peaceful transfer of power following free elections.

We must reestablish the rule of law and hold them accountable.

Democracy is fragile. Our leaders must live up to their responsibility to protect it.

Imagine how the narrative and police response would be different if this was a BLM protest

[Samar Khan @drsamarkhan]

Just a reminder that Stephon Clark was shot 20 times by police for holding a “scary” mobile phone in his Grandma’s backyard, but the #MAGA crowd is actively assaulting #capitol police with no consequences.

I've been low-key covering this story for more than a year, since Audrey Gelman's pregnant magazine cover.

@FortuneMagazine gave me the space to go into the very nuanced answer, which is: Yes, but it’s complicated.

Should be noted that immigrants are behind BOTH covid19 vaccines. Shutting borders also shuts life saving innovation. Something we need to correct moving forward.

@eringriffith @kateconger WHAT! How was it? Must try ASAP.

[Jay Rosen @jayrosen_nyu]

It's not enough to correct his wild claims and tell viewers he has no case. You actually have to de-center Trump and replace him as the protagonist in your nightly coverage. That's pro-democracy and sound journalism. Here's my sketch of what it looks like, using Thursday's news.
