I voted for her. I think he’s a bad guy.

But if you lose the senate, house, electoral college AND popular vote, and you think the lesson is half the country is racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, and stupid… wrong lesson. And the same thing will likely happen in 2028.

Facts don’t matter anymore. Only feelings. Disinformation sown and reinforced by podcasters and social media.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

A reminder that tens of millions of Americans believed the country was heading in the wrong direction because they believed the economy was doing badly and that crime was going up. None of that is true.

It’s time to vote!

A direct response to the general apathy of the Beatles “Revolution” is Nina Simone’s “Revolution.” If we want to change the Constitution it’s “going to have to bend” and the only way is for 2/3rds majority of congress

First I wanna give my condolences to the Jones family for the loss of their father, their patriarch Quincy Jones.

In this moment I want to say that even though Quincy has left this earth he leaves a legacy and a lesson for all of us.

That legacy and lesson is LIVING.

Did you know Quincy Jones was 49 years old when he produced “Thriller” on Michael Jackson? Arguably one of the greatest accomplishments of his life and of all time was done at a middle point in his life. Think about that.

So much emphasis is put on accomplishing things at such a young age now a lot of times it leaves many people feeling like it’s too late to be great or find yourself.

It’s not. Quincy Jones should always serve as an inspiration to keep pushing to be your best and keep living life through the process But also understand that his success did not come without hard work and dedication.

That hard work and dedication for you can start today.

Living 91 years on earth is the biggest flex. Remember that when you see your elderly grandparents and parents. They’ve seen it all.

Quincy Jones LIVED and we should all be inspired by his life and legacy.

Rest in Heaven Quincy 🙏🏾🕊️♥️

@Byron_A_Melton @AriDrennen I sure hope you're right again! Even with a mandate, it won’t go down easy. I anticipate recounts and litigation galore.

@realDonaldTrump And I think this is also your tweets

@NewsHour Let’s not forget “Mr. Mom,” “Close Encounters,” and “Oh, God.” She was everywhere when I was growing up and always glowed with warmth and charm. RIP

@anylaurie16 I know, right? I can't sleep, so I'm expecting something will drop here. I'm hoping traditional media is validating sources, etc. It feels like this might be a Kraken that never surfaces, though.

@MikeSington He may be correct here. “No one really would’ve thought about” killing Jamaal Khashoggi. I mean no one would’ve thought it’s acceptable to assassinate one’s critic in the modern world.

[Chris Hecht @c_hecht]

Did anyone else’s “For you” recommendations turn to this!? I blocked him after this stunt and now no more “For you”

[Chris Hecht @c_hecht]

@harris_wins Breaking if it were 2018. Since Trump pardoned Michael Harris he’s taken a different tone.

[Chris Hecht @c_hecht]

@RexChapman He’s technically not paying anyone for a vote, so he’s found a nice loophole. Hopefully, people will only be interested in the money and it will make the petition meaningless

[Chris Hecht @c_hecht]

@rolandsmartin He should be called Elon Goebbels for the way he delivers propaganda

[Kirk Borne @KirkDBorne]

I like that perspective on #AI and #GenerativeAI. What do you think?

[Chris Hecht @c_hecht]

@CalltoActivism He broke a federal law violating the Hatch Act, but “it's no big deal,” says the supposed party of Law and Order.

[Chris Hecht @c_hecht]

I start most of my Zoom calls by saying, “Hey, hey, hey,” and then usually explain the reference to a bewildered non-X’ers who didn't watch this show every day when they came home from school.

[Chris Hecht @c_hecht]

@yashar Ahh, yes, Howard University. One of the most well-known of the Historically South East Asian Colleges and Universities. Only recently being known as an HBCU, someone should look into that.

[Chris Hecht @c_hecht]

@hakeemjeffries Come on Jeffries, what happened to when “they go low, we go high?” This kind of talk is divisive and reminiscent of Hillary’s “Deplorable” moment. Let’s try to strive for unity and capture the middle not divide it.

[Chris Hecht @c_hecht]

@Heminator Wait, what about this… I don't choose this
