53 years ago, hip-hop was born at a back-to-school party in the Bronx. Now, the Bronx School of Hip Hop is preparing a new generation of artists to shape what comes next. I sat down with Nas to talk about the past, present, and future of hip-hop in NYC — from the turntables to our classrooms.

CODA: @mattgertz.bsky.social catches Rs revving up the old migrant caravan again. This makes it more urgent for Dems to speak to the fact that immigrants are getting viciously demonized and subjected to cruelty/injustice all around us.

America has faced challenges like AI before — we survived by building a system of federal oversight and regulation as well as international agreements. President Trump and Speaker Johnson, the world is watching. March us toward the summit, not the chasm.

Despite the sabotage, legal aid groups are holding the line—on limited funds—to ensure migrants aren't forced into court alone. As one attorney put it, helping a client access due process and get a fair shot "alone is worth celebrating." Read the full story by @kpaoletta.bsky.social:

First Trump came for immigrants. Then he came for their lawyers.

How legal aid groups survived the administration's attacks—barely.

Gov. Newsom signed the No Kings Act today, giving residents the right to sue federal agents like ICE for violating their constitutional rights. CA is now the 5th state to offer this right, reaching +70 mil Americans. Our own Cameron Kistler, who testified in support, said: protdem.org/4jxgm2p

"In a country where the United States Constitution is the supreme law of the land, whether Americans should have a remedy for wrongs committed by governmental officials should turn on whether the Constitution was violated—not what badge the officer has."

My greatest frustrating has been with policy wonks who persist in thinking we can just keep doing normal policy analysis ("calling balls and strikes") in this situation. The President of the United States is both lawless and out of his mind. That preempts all normal discussion.

Something remarkable is happening: James Talarico is running an expansively pro-immigrant campaign in Texas, a state Trump won by 14 points, speaking in Biblical terms about our duty to "the stranger." And it's resonating. That's seismic. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2160...

In Texas, Something Seismic Is Happening—and It’s All Trump’s Fault

Thanks to the economy and ICE, Trump has lost Texas Latinos. And James Talarico is developing a humane pro-immigrant message that’s resonating—even in this ultra-Trumpy state.

Five years ago, when a Seattle burger chain raised employee wages & benefits the Reicht wing lost their minds, screaming the result would be $20 burgers & the company would end in bankruptcy. Today, the chain is even more popular than ever. Never let them try to tell you a living wage can’t work.
