The “live” outside our kitchen is much more important than us going “live” in our kitchen. #NoPlaceForHate

The DOJ “launched 12 investigations of law enforcement agencies for practices that violate the Constitution during George W. Bush's 1st term, and 15 during Barack Obama's 1st term” Trump’s DOJ “has opened only a single public investigation of that kind”

POWERFUL thread on the words of MLK:
Here is a gift to white people who insist they know what Martin Luther King Jr. would have said.
A thread
“America... or Trump.”
No patriotic American should brandish or proudly celebrate the iconography of a rebellion that resulted in tremendous devastation, the loss of more than 620,000 American lives, and the continued subjugation of Black America.
How that whole “counterpuncher” thing work against a pandemic, a depression and civil unrest?
Trump is hiding in a bunker with Eva Bra... I mean Melania.
These tweets age beautifully... this one is 5 years old...
Our country is totally fractured and, with our weak leadership in Washington, you can expect Ferguson type riots and looting in other places
It is indeed @GHardstark !!! Tikkun Olam... acts of kindness designed to repair the world.
I love this reminder https://twitter.com/GHardstark/status/1267272373134176259
Bravo... about time! Thank you @govtimwalz

For years we’ve been saying he’s unqualified. That his divisiveness, cruelty and rage were bad for the country. That he isn’t equipped to handle a true crisis.
Now we have 3 crises: a pandemic, an economic crisis and civil unrest.
He’s failing us... just like we said he would.
It’s an honor to be a part of this with you @RevDrBarber ... I’ve looked up to and admired you for a long time. Thank you for your courage and grit. It’s infectious...

One of the smartest people I know, @sam_vinograd , putting simple understandable context around a politicized trump piece of inanity... but he’s the POTUS so even his most ridiculous statements have huge repercussions.
Must see TV

This is the constructive side of protesting that we don’t see covered enough:
The world needs to know about what happened in Newark today. A Black city, with a Black mayor (who marched with us), and many Black owned businesses. 100% peaceful demonstrations. Anger was allowed to be expressed in a healthy way and wasn’t met with force.
Maya Angelou often lights the way with her words of wisdom and hope:

“After all, as a white man in a position of power I NEVER experience racism.”
Asked if systemic racism is a problem in US law enforcement, White House National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien told me just now: “No. I don’t think there’s systemic racism...
Wait... are you Jewish, or Christian, or just evil?

I don’t know how to fix this country... but shooting rubber bullets at people on their own porch ISN’T IT.

What is happening????
MINNEAPOLIS: This appears to be police shooting at people ON THEIR OWN PORCH last night.
This is America. 🇺🇸
I was just thinking same thing as I perused reports from dozens and dozens of local press in American cities working sources and delivering real news
Thank you to ALL the reporters covering what is happening across the country. We are so fortunate and blessed to live in a country with a free press. 🙏🏾
Somehow in all of the mess I missed this. How beautiful is this human...killer Mike for the win. Thank you sir
One of the best, smartest, impromptu speeches I have ever heard. Amazing leadership.
Tonight would be a good night for a president to address the nation. A real one would.
A real POTUS for all Americans wouldn’t be inciting division, he/she would be inspiring us and restoring hope.

Tonight Trump is selling toughness over understanding.True leaders have both.The tragic night after Dr. King was killed, a white politician went into a black neighborhood in Indianapolis.The police said don't go, but Bobby Kennedy went because he cared.We need such leadership now
We judged a few together ... those were fun days... and yes, we should have judged every episode, 10000% 🤫
On a crazy night in Philadelphia and the country decompressing watching iron chef America and @andrewzimmern and @chefjoseandres as the judges. These guys should have been a judge every week.
