A Campbell Soup VP is on leave after secret recording appears to show him mocking 'poor' customers, '3D-printed chicken' An audio recording shows an apparent Campbell soup executive insulting company products, making racist comments, and claiming the meat is 3D-printed.

🧵 Sadly, this doesn't surprise me in the least

Lots of stories about social media execs not allowing their kids to use it. Tobacco & junk food executives famously don't use their own products

Most of these companies use strategies designed to increase consumption of products they know are harmful

NEW — South Shore residents who still live in the apartment building that was raided by ICE nearly two months ago in Chicago spoke out about the unlivable conditions there.

“No one paid attention to the fact that people were living here without heat before ICE came.”

You can only consider it a failure if you buy the sales pitch of DOGE - which at best is a naive take

The goal was never to reduce government waste and fraud, and for a Dem strategist to be pushing that rhetoric says much more about the state of the party than it does about DOGE's supposed failure

Many prominent Maga personalities on X are based outside US, new tool reveals Users posing as rightwing Americans are operating internationally, per the platform’s transparency feature

Love that those Nigerian princes desperate to transfer money out of their country due to political turmoil spend their downtime running Ivanka Trump fan accounts

As someone who studies social movements and also enjoys a good protest, I am absolutely loving the different flavors of resistance popping up as ICE targets various parts of the US. Salt isn't the only way to melt ICE 😉

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Next week, the ghost of Henry Kissinger will guest lecture

I know more people who have been sexually assaulted and/or harassed than people who have not - and with 81% of women and 43% of men reporting at least one incident of abuse, odds are you do, too

If you somehow still have a New York Times subscription, it's time for an upgrade

THIS IS BIG

For non-academics who might not understand why:
1. Sen. Warren is still a Harvard professor so this is a call coming from inside the house
2. As a tenured law prof, Warren knows it is a VERY big deal from a labor standpoint to call on Harvard to ignore tenure. The bar for this is HIGH.

Haha! My first thought was similar - witchcraft!

I've lived in numerous cities, so I'm no stranger to the oddities one occasionally encounters in the course of urban life

But this is bizarre:

A solitary candle in a jar in the alley, sitting on the brick road. Lit - not battery operated, real flame. Nobody in sight

I have so many questions

The New York Times is so unserious

Rabbi here.

The West Bank is absolutely occupied, in violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949, reaffirmed from the Fourth Hague Convention of 1907, Article 42.

It would be helpful if people who didn't know what they were talking about didn't open their uninformed mouths.

We are monsters, wrapped in a flag, holding the scales of justice in one hand and bombs in the other as we preach about democracy. We consume our own propaganda for breakfast, lunch, and dinner - and we don't even realize it

It's a vicious cycle. Manufacture a crisis. Invade. Destroy. Refugees flood in. Demonize them. Expell them. Select a new target and start all over again

And that's if they even make it out of our concentration camps, where we know people are perishing, but very little else. Because even our elected officials aren't allowed in. And judges' orders are ignored

And once the refugees we created reach our shores seeking asylum, we round them up like escaped cattle, treat them like vermin, and ship them off to either the countries they fled that are no longer safe because of our own actions - or third countries they've never been to and have no ties to

Here We Go Again America is preparing for war.

A great piece by Jermaine Fowler

I would add that our "immigration crisis" directly stems from our military invasions & extractive activities in Latin America. Our unending quest to feed corporate hunger creates the very conditions that leads people to flee their countries to preserve their lives

6d Listen to this article Congregants of an east Charlotte church scattered into the woods Saturday when masked federal agents arrived and detained one of their members, according to witnesses. About 15 to 20 church members were doing yard work on the property off Albemarle Road while their children played games and their spouses cooked meals. Agents parked just outside a closed gate leading to the church parking lot and ran into the yard, said the pastor, who did not want to identify himself or his church.

The agents asked no questions and showed no identification before taking one man away, whose wife and child were inside at the time, the pastor said. They attempted to grab others, too. "Right now, everybody is scared. Everybody," he said. "One of these guys with immigration, he say he was going to arrest one of the other guys in the church. He pushed him." Inside the church, women and children sobbed as they wondered whether their loved ones had been taken. Some yard workers fled into the surrounding woods when officials arrived, including 15-year-old Miguel Vazquez.

Here’s a story for every national news outlet:

In N.C., churchgoers are literally running into the woods as federal agents descend on the property.

One of the biggest issues with the synthetic text extruding machines is that we have well-formed linguistic output with no accountability. Solution: OpenAI should be accountable for everything that comes out of ChatGPT, period. (And likewise for Google with Gemini, etc.)

This whole thread is so wholesome

If you have to get permission to teach in your area of expertise from people who are definitionally not qualified to adjudicate your expertise then you are no longer working at a university.

You’re working at a state propaganda factory.

Don't mind me - just making a thread to store all these gems in one spot

On the r/conservative subreddit, they're saying all it proves is that Trump told Epstein to stop since he was poaching young women/teens from Mar a Lago, which everyone already knew. He tried to stop the trafficking. A modern day hero
