My friend Gary Harris brought this musician named D'Angelo over to my NYC apt. He was trying to figure out what to do with the music he'd brought with him. I listened to every cut...not just out of respect but because it was smoking. At the end of the encounter he asked me, "What

Way too young. What an incredible talent. 😢
Soul legend D’Angelo, whose timeless music redefined R&B, has died at 51 from pancreatic cancer. A visionary behind classics like Brown Sugar and Voodoo, his sound shaped a generation and spoke to the soul of Black America. His impact will live on forever. Rest in power, King.

I think Democrats should implement this nationwide at all protests. A competent attorney with a bullhorn directly communicating to law enforcement and the surrounding cameras. This is a VERY smart idea.

The most dangerous form of government is theocracy. Because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they're on a mission from God.

The People’s Forum calls itself a training ground for activists. But Senate investigators tied its leadership to Neville Roy Singham — a businessman accused of working closely with the Chinese Communist Party. Is this activism or foreign influence?

Fascinating that all those “don’t tread on me” posers and their AR-15’s are nowhere to be seen and government tyranny is instead being opposed by a guy in an inflatable frog suit.

@Acyn antifa began as Antifaschistische Aktion in Germany in 1932 and hasn't been an actual organization since Hitler took power and used his brownshirts to crush them, garnering public support for that by producing propaganda about antifa street violence. Sound familiar?

It’s wild how people can effortlessly understand the righteousness of everybody from Robin Hood to Andor and then in real life simp for the Sheriff of Nottingham and the Death Star

The government is shutdown, but the House refuses to go back in session. Why are we in recess? Because the day we go back into session, I have 218 votes for the discharge petition to force a vote on releasing the Epstein files. @SpeakerJohnson doesn’t want that to be the news.

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session. Want to know why? Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out. Call GOP and tell them to swear in @AdelitaForAZ.
The Chair announced the Speaker's designation of Tuesday, Oct. 7 through Monday, Oct. 13 as a district work period.

Mr. President: Read the Constitution. The function of the U.S. military is to protect us from FOREIGN enemies, not Portland, OR. In this country we have local and state police for law enforcement, not federal troops. Stop deploying the U.S. army against Americans.

Tonight, Congress will vote to lower the age to prosecute minors as adults from 16 down to 14 in DC. Let me get this straight: Congress wants to prosecute 14 yr. olds as adults, but they don’t want to prosecute adults who sexually abuse 14 year olds? Release the Epstein files.

.@JamesTalarico is right; our division isn’t organic, it’s engineered. Algorithms profit off outrage. Networks fuel tribalism. Billionaires bankroll chaos. This isn’t just a democracy experiment, it’s a controlled demolition unless we wake up.

Aaron! This is so sweet!
My gf and I fell in love with one another to the songbook of @ChrisIsaak and then the music of @NicoleAtkins sustained our marriage when I was deployed. Tonight I got to hear these two sing together in Nashville. Really feeling blessed right now.
