PRIMARY DAY. What's at stake tomorrow, the first big primary day of 2018. “Will a new political dynasty be born? Will a man not quite a year removed from prison become the GOP's candidate for Senate? Will Dennis Kucinich finally win a nomination — 14 years after his first quixotic presidential bid? These things could all happen Tuesday, primary day in the great states of Indiana, North Carolina, Ohio and West Virginia.”

ROSIE O'DONNELL. Under scrutiny for campaign donations: ‘“If 2700 is the cut off — [candidates] should refund the money,” she wrote. “I don't look to see who I can donate most to … I just donate assuming they do not accept what is over the limit.” O'Donnell said she donates often, and uses the online liberal fundraising platform ActBlue. “My anxiety is quelled by donating to those opposing trump [and] his agenda — especially at night — when most of these were placed.”

WHITE FREEDOM. Ta-Nehisi Coates on Kanye West: ‘What Kanye West seeks is what Michael Jackson sought—liberation from the dictates of that we. In his visit with West, the rapper T.I. was stunned to find that West, despite his endorsement of Trump, had never heard of the travel ban. “He don't know the things that we know because he's removed himself from society to a point where it don't reach him,” T.I. said. West calls his struggle the right to be a “free thinker,” and he is, indeed, championing a kind of freedom—a white freedom, freedom without consequence, freedom without criticism, freedom to be proud and ignorant; freedom to profit off a people in one moment and abandon them in the next; a Stand Your Ground freedom, freedom without responsibility, without hard memory; a Monticello without slavery, a Confederate freedom, the freedom of John C.
