Why is Mainstream Media Ignoring Overtly Racist Attacks on Mamdani from Congressional Republicans? Non-stop Islamopbohic vitriol, threats of deportation, and virtually no coverage from CNN, NBC, CBS, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal or The Washington Post.

Congressional republicans have been spewing racist attacks on Mamdani for weeks and it’s almost never mentioned in our media. Not only that, the person leading the hate campaignβ€”Randy Fineβ€”is treated by the same media as a good faith expert on antisemitism. I wrote about this obscene double standard

Not really sure what the future holds for me, but I’m all good. Likely taking a long and/or permanent break from journalism. Still happy to chat if anyone’s hiring or has freelance work. It’s been fun, folks! Not deleting this account or anything but who knows

Just a heads-up, the last version of @theappeal.org that existed is no more. Some folks seem to be doing some new stuff with the IP, but me and most of the remaining staff are gone. Not sure what their plans are but leaving that to them to explain.

Philadelphia Measure Would Bolster Oversight for the City’s Deadly Jails On May 20, Philadelphia voters will choose whether to create an independent body to investigate dangerous conditions that have plagued the city’s jails for decades.

Women detained in Philadelphia say they banged on their cell doors for hours pleading for medical attention, but nobody responded.

On Tuesday, voters approved a ballot measure to bring more oversight over what's happening in the local jails: boltsmag.org/philade...

The President just effectively signed a statement that he is committing a crime, violating a criminal statute enacted with overwhelming bipartisan majorities (it passed 96-2 in the Senate). Here is the law and his post. 1/3

Trump's surgeon general nominee, Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, faces scrutiny over credentials President Trump and his nominee for surgeon general, Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, have made claims about her certification and schooling that appear to be misleading.

Trump's nominee for surgeon general is a Fox News contributor who has been lying about her credentials. It seems her medical degree is from some shady Caribbean school.

I obviously cannot say with certainty what it is but I can sure say it's filled me with a sense of dread I'm not sure I've felt before

Feels like focusing on criminal records kinda misses the point, which is just that the administration wants to do ethnic cleansing

Check r/buyitforlife, buying stuff that lasts instead of the cheapest thing you can find on Amazon/at Marshall's is best practices regardless of this really is the end of American economic hegemony.

Don’t love that a key conservative belief is that β€œthe New Deal was bad and World War II was what actually saved the US economy”

I figured he’d know to at least get up on a podium with the disrgraced great-grandson of like, BF Goodrich & announce some harebrained Operation Smokestack Freedom to build new factories. But the plan is just to make everything expensive & assume people will figure it out

Call me naΓ―ve all you want but I’m still kinda floored his plan is *just* β€œtariffs.” Like I assumed he’d at least try some sort of conservative-approved manufacturing tax-break scheme or something, but he’s somehow actually dumber than I thought possible

So from my uniquely weird perspective after living in the UK through Brexit, being in India during Modi's demonetization, and living in Brazil when the real tanked during the Bolsonaro administration, I can confidentally say that Americans do not and can not understand how bad this is going to be.

Can’t stop laughing at how bad Cory Booker’s speech backfired, he talked so long that no one’s ever gonna go back to re-listen to it or pull clips from it
