Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi's talk at Columbia this week was full of insight. This warning, on social media manipulation, is FACTS: "The capacity for extortion and blackmail based on your data -- including data that is not even 100% true -- becomes a HUGE problem..."

More from Clinton on social media manipulation and disinformation. Here she discusses Douglass Mackey, the Trump-lover convicted for a 2016 voter suppression scheme meant to trick Clinton supporters to cast their votes in ways that wouldn't be counted.

.@_jahan: Trump's attorney isn’t the first person to launder Black criticism of the criminal justice system in service of a right-wing white dude. But, as president, Trump aligned himself with that very same system. So, it's a tough sell. -@thereidout Blog msnbc.com/the-reidout/reidou…

.@_jahan: Conservative bans on books and abortions pose a unique threat to Black women’s sense of self. Alice Walker’s work is like a road map to help them find it. No wonder Republicans are desperate to keep her out of classrooms. (via The ReidOut Blog) msnbc.com/the-reidout/reidou…

.@_jahan: To be unapologetic is to remain stoic in the face of judgment. But to me, Ta-Nehisi Coates isn't stoic. He’s righteously confrontational. And that's why he and his work have been targeted by conservatives. (via The ReidOut Blog) msnbc.com/the-reidout/reidou…

The GOP keeps making ugly statements trying to demonize China as a boogeyman, at a dangerous time when anti-Asian hatred and conspiracies are at the fore. @_Jahan msnbc.com/the-reidout/reidou…

“McCarthy political career is already dead. He has agreed to several conditions that weaken the speakership for anyone who holds the position in the next congressional term. Whoever that is will be House speaker in name only.” @_Jahan msnbc.com/the-reidout/reidou…
