Scott Pelley just issued a statement on Bari's remarks this morning:

[Sacramento Kings @SacramentoKings]

The Sacramento Kings organization is deeply saddened by the passing of Rick Adelman, a beloved coach whose leadership, character, and vision helped define an era of Kings basketball that inspired our city and captivated fans around the world.   

During his eight seasons in Sacramento, he led the team to unprecedented success and helped create some of the most memorable moments in franchise history. For an entire generation of Kings fans, Coach Adelman represented the very best of Sacramento basketball, and he will be remembered for the way he inspired those around him – with humility, integrity, kindness, and an unwavering belief in the power of teamwork. His leadership helped establish a culture that continues to resonate throughout our organization today.  

Our thoughts are with Mary Kay, his family, friends, former players, and all who loved him.

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America. 

He embodies the broken system we’re running against.

It’s time to come together: The People vs. Ken Paxton

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

On Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women in uniform who gave their lives for this country that we love. It is a debt we can never fully repay, but we must never stop trying. I’ll always be grateful to our fallen heroes and their families, whose sacrifice reminds us of what it means to live for something greater than ourselves.

Russia is losing on the battlefield and in the Black Sea. Its economy is in tatters. All it can do is bomb Ukrainian cities and civilians. This is why we must pass Russian sanctions and military aid to Ukraine. The House will vote on this in two weeks.

[Emmanuel Macron @EmmanuelMacron]

Les frappes russes se succèdent contre des objectifs civils en Ukraine, comme à nouveau cette nuit.

La France condamne cette attaque et le recours au missile balistique Oreshnik, qui signent surtout une forme de fuite en avant et l’impasse de la guerre d'agression de la Russie.

Notre détermination à continuer de soutenir l'Ukraine, à tout mettre en œuvre pour une paix juste et durable et à renforcer la sécurité de l'Europe n'en est que renforcée.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Thank you for your support!

[Mark Carney @MarkJCarney]

Canada strongly condemns Russia’s launch of large-scale missile and drone attacks on civilian targets in Kyiv tonight.

For more than four years since Russia’s illegal invasion, it has greatly underestimated the courage, determination, and strength of the Ukrainian people — even as Putin’s regime has relentlessly bombed Ukrainian energy infrastructure, schools, hospitals, and homes.

We call on Russia to immediately cease these strikes and end this illegal war of aggression. They prolong human suffering and do nothing to change the fact that Russia will lose this war.

Canada will continue working closely with international partners to secure a just and lasting peace for Ukraine and Europe.

By Jasmine Crockett:

"Hey Tim Scott,

You spent years tap dancing through every interview, every speech, every Sunday show appearance telling America that racism was basically over and that your success story proved everybody else just needed to work harder and complain less.

You carried water for people who mocked civil rights, demonized poor people, gutted diversity programs, attacked voting rights, and treated Black history like a disease.

And for what?

No VP slot.
No cabinet throne.
No real power.
Not even basic respect.

You confessed your admiration on national television for people who viewed you as nothing more than a convenient talking point — the “See? We have one!” guy standing in the background smiling on cue.

Then the second you showed the smallest trace of independence and questioned that disgusting Obama monkey post, your own side turned on you like starving wolves.

Suddenly the loyal house servant wasn’t loyal enough.

Now you’re sitting in a car recording cellphone videos reminding the world that you’re still Black.

Trust us, Senator — nobody forgot.

The problem is that you spent so much time trying to convince other people that racism wasn’t real that now, when it smacks you directly in the face, you want sympathy from the same community you lectured for years.

You defended the people stripping away protections for minorities, women, the poor, and working-class families. You stood beside people cheering the destruction of programs our grandparents marched, bled, and died for.

And now you look shocked that the crowd you entertained never actually saw you as an equal.

The Bible talks about the Prodigal Son returning home after losing everything.

But the Prodigal Son came home humble.
You spent years helping burn the house down.

And now you’re politically homeless:
too Black for the people you defended,
too eager to defend them for the people you abandoned.

That’s the tragedy of selling your dignity for a seat at a table that was never meant for you.

Tim, you may be the PRODIGAL SON, BUT YOU CAN’T COME HOME."

We saw it coming. He didn't want to.

[John Harwood @JohnJHarwood]

that's because Jaxson Dart was speaking up for an immoral sociopathic criminal who is severely damaging America

Steve Kerr has been speaking up for morality and decency and genuine American values

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

Stephen Colbert has a talent for making people laugh and encouraging them to stay curious, stay engaged, and stay hopeful about the world around them.

@StephenAtHome: Thank you for your voice, your creativity, and so many memorable conversations over the years. Cheers to you.

[Ben Stiller @BenStiller]

This was so emotional.

Thank you Stephen Colbert.

Thank you Paul McCartney.

Thank you Ed Sullivan Theater.

💙

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

Wow. In one of the most emotional moments in television history, Stephen Colbert signs off his show’s last opening monologue by sharing that he realized his job was to “feel the news” with us.

What a class act and an extraordinary person. Thank you Stephen.

[Brian Murphy @knbrmurph]

A classic Bill Walsh acquisition who was a key to the magical Super Bowl 16 run … RIP

[Adam Mockler @adammocklerr]

dawg the ending 😭

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.

The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

hey do you guys think I need a lawyer

[Really American 🇺🇸 @ReallyAmerican1]

In a stunning moment, King Charles shames Congressional Republicans who oppose aiding Ukraine, recalling how NATO allies responded to the U.S. on 9/11.

[Earvin Magic Johnson @MagicJohnson]

I caught this news segment this morning on Los Angeles local NBC about Jose Alvarez, a teacher at John Muir Middle School and lifelong @Dodgers fan. When his school's annual Dodgers field trip was canceled due to a teacher's strike, Jose went to the game himself, bought the limited edition Hello Kitty x Dodgers sweatshirts, and gifted them to his class! His dedication to his students and honoring his late father's love of the Dodgers was incredible to see. Teachers like Mr. Alvarez deserve to be celebrated!
