Just came back from seeing "The Odyssey." It's excellent. Yes, there are some changes from the book (I read it three times — from high school to college). But I wasn't bothered by it. I was surprised by how well done this movie is. A triumph for Nolan. Go see it! #TheOdyssey

Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 6 weeks(!) in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave—is now getting all three.

Happy Birthday to El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz! I edited a photo book of the Malcom X Festival in Atlanta that we're trying to get back in print. We all need his words now. If we pay attention, we see that he calls us to a critical re-examining of the structure of the US. He is not your liberal token!

Malcolm X as a smiling kid

Nothing was taken out of context⤵️ ➡️Your 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 abt Black leadership causing problems for White leftists was 79 seconds long ➡️Your 𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 was how Black left will solve that problem for White leftists You're lying now or your apology was a lie - which is it?

I don't know WHY they always feel like they need to apologize. They'd be better off just publicly embracing their beliefs. As my mom says, "we ain't falling for the okee doke." Black women are always passing this insight down to the next generation of Black women. We'll keep doing that, too.

🧪 The @wsj.com now no longer has *any* science reporters on staff at all. None. Zero. I guess the management of the paper doesn’t think science has any bearing on the global economy. Is there truly no economically viable version of science reporting in general news media?

Phang: I have standing to be able to get Todd Blanche to comply with Judge Sullivan’s order, which is now telling him that on or before July 2nd, he either has to put up or shut up. He either has to bring forth unredacted files or show cause as to why he should not or cannot do so.

BREAKING: Judge Sullivan has GRANTED Katie Phang's preliminary injunction concluding she has standing, has been harmed, and will likely succeed on the merits of her case demanding the full release of the Epstein files. Blanche has until 7/2 to respond. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

We need more of this in the USA… “NYC Mayor Mandani reveals a plan to allocate $122 million to hire an additional 1,000 teachers by 2027. This must be why they say socialism is so horrible. Rather than funding continuous foreign wars, tax funds are being redirected toward our educational system.”
