Not poverty shaming, just the cosplay! Representing the poorest district in the nation, wearing $20 #Walmart (no Walmarts in the BX or NYC BTW) #And1 sneakers, while proudly actually repping #AmericanIsraelPublicAffairsCommittee, #BlackstoneGroup, & interest of your Million$+ PAC, in policy support

Speaking of brand management—& left of topic (obviously not politics)— @ritchietorres.bsky.social (whose account I’m amazed to find out isn’t actually a parody account) what are those?

I Think I've Seen This Film Before
The Genocide in Gaza started as a Colonial War: A Case Study Comparison with French Algeria
Related to the @nytimes.com “exposé” on #ZohranMamdani’s unaccepted app to @ColumbiaUniversity, & the hacker behind it, who goes by “Crémieux”. #AliciaKenworthy’s essay not only explains the sinister significance in the hacker’s name, it draws an insightful through-line from French Algeria to Gaza.

This is how Cudi showed up to court, in torn jeans and a t-shirt? You think jurors took his testimony seriously? Then, HE stated he had no direct evidence or knowledge of who was responsible for his car exploding. The jury made a decision based on the material presented.

Or, the only legitimate charges would have been domestic violence of intimate partner related, which were beyond the statue of limitations. So, overzealous prosectors trumped up a RICO case? At least the jury felt compelled to find guilt with something. Any conspiracy was from the prosecution.

While news cycles are focused on our outrageous administration, with its unconstitutional gulag in El Salvador, let’s not forget the ones at home, still run by profiteers.
This story is a reminder that local politics (and news) matter!

My larger point is that using the ratings excuse doesn’t pan out—based on the ratings,compared to her station peers.

Exactly, I wish he’d rep political bravery, instead of an undying commitment to cowardice! How have powerless Republicans routinely been able to achieve sucess politically? @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, think to yourself “WhatWouldMitchDo” if he were a Democrat vying for power.

Murphy: "We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis. That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the Senate. Ds should not be giving votes to nominee or legislation in the Senate until Rs get serious about this crisis"

Not the The International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) and the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) disagreeing with MAGA. I’m shocked, but also understand neither actually cares.

This is the same Haley Barbour who often recounted his upbringing—being raised by a defacto slave (a state inmate "assigned to his grandfather" serving life), who Barbour pardoned as he left office in 2012, as an act of "Christian forgiveness".

Let's not forget who instituted this co/opt of a celebration around virtue and morality, in the life and legacy of #MLK, to instead also celebrate the opposite—vice and immorality, of an American traitor—pretending they are one and the same. In ‘07 former #MS Governor #HaleyBarbour proclaimed it so.
