"Last I checked, Egypt is in Africa. ... I'm going to sound like Martin Luther King: 'I'm tired of having people deny the intellect of Africans in Egypt 5,000 years ago.' ... Denial of dark skin people having that ability." - @neiltyson

BREAKING: Rep. Pat Ryan just got the House Armed Services Committee UNANIMOUSLY to force Pete Hegseth to explain every senior military firing within the next 5 days. Hegseth has fired 24+ officers without cause or explanation. Even Republicans want answers.

You caught them. Mom and Dad were going to sell bibles and cell phones, golden sneakers, and NFTs, Chinese watches and cologne but wouldn’t you know someone beat them to the punch. They were left with only one choice write two books like every former First Lady and President has done in modern history.

[Mark Warner @MarkWarner]

It seems there is an entirely different set of rules for Republicans and Democrats.

The other journalists in the room should have interrupted him and stated that this is inappropriate.

[Norm Eisen @NormEisen]

Headed into arbitration today w/@KarenAttiah who was fired by the Washington Post for speaking plainly about political violence & now fighting back

A LANDMARK battle well worth having, for press freedom & every journalist who refuses to be silenced

I stood at this pool, at both monuments and saw both reflections…
He’s a God damn idiot, as are the fools that support him. The “Reflection Pool” wasn’t designed by American architect Henry Bacon a hundred years ago to look like a swimming pool. It’s designed to have a darkened characteristics that has reflective qualities to reflect the monuments.
That way, the Washington Monument is reflective to you when at the Lincoln Memorial, and when at the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial is reflective to you.
It’s designed to enhance the grandeur of monuments, create an illusion of reflection, and inclusion of expansive space of unity.
He’s a tacky vulgar person that vulgarizes everything he touches. America isn’t becoming great, it’s becoming vulgar.

Colorado Governor Jared Polis has vetoed the state’s groundbreaking law banning surveillance pricing.

That’s a big win for shady corporations — and a major loss for your privacy and wallet.

My latest about the agony of awaiting Supreme Court decisions that may define democracy for a generation each June. I hope you read, learn and share. https://t.co/WKWGn1CznF

The whole point is that he is unqualified and will make us less safe. This isn’t a glitch. It’s the design. The US is to bend to its rivals abroad and collapse from within. For this he is the right guy!

I'm afraid that this is why the US administration wants to shut down ocean observations: they don't want the people to know what is happening in our oceans, as it does not fit their ideology and the interests of their fossil fuel industry funders.

He didn’t hold back.

It would be really smart for @MSNOWNews to hire all of the 60 Minutes team and recreate it on their network. Huge ratings boost, and a great move for prestige.

On June 4 this year, as every year, I think back to that terrible night in 1989 when I watched China's army fire on the crowd that I was in and massacre unarmed protesters. I'll never forget the courage I saw that night, as well as the cruelty. #Tiananmen https://t.co/ySyNR1yjzM

1. I didn't want to talk about this today. I had planned on writing a very clever and highly nuanced commentary on American patriarchy. But the man who runs the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which oversees the Affordable Care Act, forced my hand.

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

This is the latest Trump corruption to push back on.

He's gotten the attorney general to exempt him from the tax laws that govern everyone else—including other presidents.

Bill and I released 30+ years of tax returns and were audited a few times! https://t.co/6JiiVjIv3F

In America today, we rank 34th out of 35 countries in childhood poverty and millions of children are food insecure.

Maybe, just maybe, my Republican colleagues would consider holding a single hearing about how we improve the lives of American kids.
