- Within hours, New START a bilateral nuclear treaty b/t Russia & the U.S. is set to expire. The Pope has raised the alarm. At stake, an escalation of an arms race that’s been brewing. And this time, the U.S. won’t be leading, China will step in. www.reuters.com/world/china/...
- U.S. troops in Nigeria. This won’t end well. www.militarytimes.com/news/your-mi...
- I was outside today on a wing & prayer. The DMV is a mess from all this concrete-ice-snow. It’s going to be freezing for a while, be safe out there folks.
- Don Lemon @donlemonofficial.bsky.social was arrested last night in LA!!! I know these folks despise the law, but it’s a reason why the Constitution protects journalists under the First Amendment. Abbe Lowell will remind the Trump regime that retribution isn’t a legal argument. Stay strong Don!
- I couldn’t see!!! 😩😂
- It’s dinner time. 😂😩
- I was on here as the screen went dark. All I know is, white screens are for maniacs. 😂😩

- I am only this hungry bc I can’t go outside. I’m like a 10 year old over here waiting for the snow to get cleared.

- I appreciate you so much. I appreciated what the Congresswoman said. We educate our folks in each city & state about election laws & keep organizing on the ground. It’s the same stuff the elders did.

- On January 6, I attended the hearings 5 years later on the Hill. I sat down to chat with Rep. Veronica Escobar (TX-16) recounted her harrowing experience of being trapped in the Capitol on 1/6. I’m this clip, I asked Rep. Escobar if we will have elections this year—listen to her response.
- I enjoyed this conversation so much. We covered so much, but what I’m drawn to when I listen is the discussion around accountability and pardoning Trump.
- Hey folks, I know many of you will love this episode. Kris & I talk about what accountability should look like post Trump. It’s worth a listen.
- Earlier this week, I received news that I’m off to the Negotiation Academy for Global Leaders at the University of Zurich later on this year. 🫶🏽🙏🏽
- My latest quick take on the cost/debt we as Americans will be saddled with if the Trump regime invades Greenland. Hitler didn’t happen in a vacuum, historical events helped create him. We are repeating Germany’s mistakes in many ways. substack.com/@nolahaynes1...

- Leader Jeffries will be an incredible Speaker Jeffries.
- Leader @repjeffries is calling for the killing of an innocent woman in Minneapolis by an ICE agent to be criminally investigated for “depraved indifference to human life.”
- I shared a few thoughts on Substack yesterday after I left the January 6th hearings on the Hill. Yes, this is about pro-democracy/Constitution vs anti-democracy/authoritarianism. It’s really about the truth vs doubt. Voters stay home bc they have ZERO trust in politics to make their lives better.
- Trump’s foreign policy—make China stronger.
- Thinking of @libradunn1.bsky.social & the scores of brave patriots that fought to keep the Capitol safe. Thank you for continuing to fight.
- Good morning community! Join me on the Morning Hustle Pod. I’m talking all things Venezuela & Nigeria. See you at 7:45 am! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

- Wake up folks! The U.S. bombed Venezuela & “captured” Maduro & his wife. Yep, you heard me correctly.
- Happy New Year Bluesky community! I’m looking forward to interviewing @repescobar.bsky.social on 1/6 about the lingering efffcts of 1/6 & how the world sees us. Since Jack Smith reenteted the conversation, this will be a great conversation with the Rep from Texas. Stand by for details.

- Hey folks, if you’re on Threads, I’m offering updates over there about Nigeria. Here’s a clip of Nigerians welcoming the strikes. www.threads.com/@nolahaynes/...
- These exchanges are sometimes important to engage with. Eventhough it breaks my heart that some Nigerians see this man as a “savior.”

- Great job, Nicki. You have blood on your hands.

- It’s exhausting..
- Trump strikes Nigeria on Christmas! This Admin has dismantled various preventive anti-terrorism programs across agencies. So, while terrorism is a real problem in areas of Nigeria, this isn’t why Trump is striking. Nor, is it about protecting Christians. Christians are killed in N Korea the most.
- Y’all what happened on RMU tonight, I heard @rolandsmartin.bsky.social went INNNN!
