@TheBeatWithAri@common@JuanitaTolliver Love common and Juanita at the same table! Good show. Suggest you find Bill Bloom (from Philly) who co-wrote "Double Dutch Bus" to further celebrate all of Hip Hop!!
If you get the chance give a listen to this whole interview; very touching, very sad, very inspiring, and you will remember Judge Esther Salas!! And kudos to her for mentioning "The Four Agreements" by Don Miguel Ruiz. Inspiring people inspire inspiring people.
"We need to protect judges. We need to make judges feel protected. Judges need to be able to do their jobs without fear of retaliation, retribution and death" - U.S. District Court Judge Esther Salas w/ @NicolleDWallace
Just watched Joy Reid's interview with our Vice President, Kamala Harris and a few others; riveting so you might want to see if MSNBC website will be carrying it...I'm sure they will. Watch and discuss!!
BREAKING: Over 100 furious parents and multiple Republican lawmakers storm the Utah Capitol to “protest a school district’s decision to remove the Bible from middle and elementary school libraries after a parent brilliantly uses a Republican book ban against “woke books” and “sensitive material” to request that it be banned.
The furious conservative parents are now demanding that the Bible be exempt from the book ban, even though it “contains instances of incest, prostitution and rape” — and the school district determined that it is too “violent and vulgar” under the new law — because they believe that The Bible is “the original textbook.”
The Associated Press reports that the furious conservative parents had “no issue” with their new law banning books that included discussions about “race and LGBTQ lifestyles.”
The Associated Press continues, reporting that, “the challenge to the Bible appears to have been submitted as a statement” to expose the “political double standard” of the law — and apparently it worked just as intended.
“If folks are outraged about the Bible being banned, they should be outraged about all the books that are being censored,” said the leader of a prominent local librarian organization.
Please retweet and ❤️ to expose the hypocrisy of Republican book bans — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a “woke” new Twitter competitor that is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: https://t.co/HnJzSKj4Hp
This report from the @UN simply confirms what we already knew to be true: abortion bans put all women and girls at risk, erode the right to privacy, and compromise doctors’ ability to provide comprehensive medical care. https://t.co/mYhn7j9KuO
Yes, it truly is well-written, you don't have to have a law degree to understand it, and it really DOES read like a movie script...and I daresay there are writers across the country and beyond writing madly!!
Listen to what Special Counsel Jack Smith said yesterday & please read his indictment of Trump. It’s only 49 pages & it’s very accessible & well-written - and, because Trump is so weird, so dishonest & reckless, it also reads like a movie script:

As I said last year…
If you’re starting with the premise that Donald Trump is a completely innocent, billionaire, ex-President then you have to ask yourself, where are all the lawyers?
Target abandoned the LGBTQ+ community & caved to an orchestrated attack by anti-LGBTQ+ bigots & pulled items from their 2023 Pride merch collection off their shelves.

To my Pennsylvania friends: “Patricia McCullough, who is on the ballot this Tuesday, handed Trump a rare legal victory in 2020 and has sided with the GOP on other election cases, only to be repeatedly struck down by the high court she now wants to join.”

Exxon just reported record profits for the first quarter of this year, raking in $11.43 billion. The oil giant now has $33 billion cash on hand.
Say it with me, corporate greed is driving inflation, not workers demanding better wages and benefits.
Just wanted to thank you, Ari, for your Fallback Friday choice! I'm so glad to know I'm not the only one! Bring back real menus!!! And you all are correct that having to use our phones does ruin the dining experience...some places I will not go to anymore. We shall see....
"...not a biological mother...?" Well @RepMTG, the woman who adopted me, cared for me, raised me, loved me, inspired me, disciplined me, educated me and at 95 still smiles when I walk in the room didn't need biology to be my mother. #Adoption
@LakotaMan1 Never listen to a maga, unless you want to be shown again how good it is to not be maga! May we all care more and more about the Indigenous communities.
