It can be very difficult to separate the art from the artist. In the case of Roseanne Barr and her critically acclaimed television show based on her life, it is nearly impossible. I wasn’t going to watch the reboot because I find Ms. Barr noxious, transphobic, racist and small-minded. Whatever charm and intelligence she brought to the first nine seasons of her show, a show I very much loved, are absolutely absent in her current persona, particularly as it manifests on Twitter. She tweets conspiracy theories, rails against feminism and shares Islamophobic opinions.

Where once she was edgy and provocative, she is now absurd and offensive. Her views are muddled and incoherent. She is more invested in banal and shallow provocation than engaging with sociopolitical issues in a thoughtful manner. No amount of mental gymnastics can make what Roseanne Barr has said and done in recent years palatable.

‘Roseanne’ Reboot Part Of ABC Plan To Lure Trump Voters (NYTimes)

On the morning after the 2016 election, a group of nearly a dozen ABC executives gathered at their Burbank, Calif., headquarters to determine what Donald J. Trump’s victory meant for the network’s future.

“We looked at each other and said, ‘There’s a lot about this country we need to learn a lot more about, here on the coasts,’” Ben Sherwood, the president of Disney and ABC’s television group, said in an interview.

They began asking themselves which audiences they were not serving well and what they could do to better live up to the company name — the American Broadcasting Company. By the meeting’s end, they had in place the beginnings of a revised strategy that led the network to reboot a past hit centered on a struggling Midwestern family, a show that had a chance to appeal to the voters who had helped put Mr. Trump in the White House.

On Tuesday night, the strategy proved more successful than the executives had hoped: “Roseanne” premiered to the highest ratings for any network sitcom in almost four years.

Turns out Donald Trump’s timing was off for his vicious dig at California Gov. Jerry Brown for pardoning five immigrants who were facing possible deportation.

Trump, relying again on name-calling, lashed Democrat “Moonbeam” Brown Saturday for pardoning immigrants who had been convicted of crimes — even though they finished serving their sentences years ago.

twitter:

realDonaldTrump twitterde op zaterdag 31-03-2018 om 14:53:01 Governor Jerry “Moonbeam” Brown pardoned 5 criminal illegal aliens whose crimes include (1) Kidnapping and Robbery (2) Badly beating wife and threatening a crime with intent to terrorize (3) Dealing drugs. Is this really what the great people of California want? reageer retweet

quote:

But the president slammed the pardons the day after he proclaimed April “second chance month” — which Brown’s press office was only too happy to point out. The California tweet clapped back with the president’s own words, highlighted on the White House web site. The president celebrated “those who have exited the prison system and successfully reentered society ... we encourage expanded opportunities for those who have worked to overcome bad decisions ... and emphasize our belief in second chances.” Trump could have been describing the pardoned Californians.

twitter:

GovPressOffice twitterde op zaterdag 31-03-2018 om 22:15:01 “This month, we celebrate those who have exited the prison system & successfully reentered society. We encourage expanded opportunities...& emphasize our belief in second chances for all who...turn their lives around.” reageer retweet

quote:

Brown granted 56 pardons and reduced 14 sentences on Good Friday and Passover. All of those granted pardons served their sentences “years ago,” and “earned” their pardons, said a statement from Brown’s office. Each of the five immigrants lived “law-abiding” lives after serving their time, and were assets to their communities and families, according to information from Brown’s office. Two of the immigrants came to America as child refugees. The pardons won’t necessarily save the men from deportation, but they may help.

The Trump slam was the latest in an increasingly heated feud between the White House and pollution-battling, immigrant-protecting California. Trump likely slammed California in his latest tweet because Brown was attacked for the pardons early Saturday on “Fox and Friends.”

The Trump White House’s Intern Program Is Once Again Very, Very White

The White House is yet again facing fierce criticism over the lack of diversity of the participants in its intern program. A photograph released Friday shows President Donald Trump posing with the spring intake, who are overwhelmingly white.

“The White House intern photo is like a Where’s Waldo for a non-white person — in a country that is about 40% non-white,” tweeted political scientist and Washington Post columnist Brian Klaas. “Diversity this ain’t,” added France 24 correspondent Philip Crowther.

Other tweeters shared similarly biting comments:

"America: •38% People of Color •31% White Women •31% White Men
White House Interns: •2% POC •25% WW •73% WM
This's what "#MAGA" looks like"

"The Trump White House interns could be the whitest group I’ve ever encountered.
And I’m including the Nantucket Yacht Club."

"The Spring 2018 White House Interns! I see a theme here!"
