Highly selective when quoting Panitch’s tweets

Actually insane, but totally unsurprising, that Bluestein not only mentions Esther Panitch but tries to frame her as a β€œmainstream Democrat” in his piece on Ruwa Romman’s run for Governor.

Panitch is a hardline Zionist who has repeatedly said and shared vile things about members of her own party

Now is the time to be brave. Republicans in Georgia have controlled our state for over 20 years leading to underfunded schools, closing hospitals, & low wages stuck at $5.15.

I'm running for Governor to change that.

Mesha Mainor Runs for Georgia School Superintendent Mesha Mainor is running in a growing field of candidates vying to unseat the incumbent fellow Republican.

Former state lawmaker Mesha Mainor announced that she’s running to become the next state schools superintendent. She gained attention two years ago when she left the Democratic Party to become the only Black Republican in the Georgia General Assembly.

The Future of Public Education in GA YouTube video by DeKalb Dems

Here’s the actual video. Haven’t watched yet but Rashaun Kemp’s inclusion is upsetting given that he doesn’t represent DeKalb and his being a longtime supporter (and professional beneficiary) of charter schools

Seems like Georgia Ethics Code should prevent the governor from appointing the immediate family of other electeds/members of the press to BACs

This is all too common.

If I were someone whose project is reviving the factional strength and electoral viability of centrist Dems, and if I was someone always banging on about meeting public opinion where it is, I think I would be counseling the centrist faction to actually be responsive to public opinion on Gaza.

Of my adopted hometown of Columbus:

Carson McCullers grew up there until she left for New York City […] when one of her New York friends wondered about her frequent sojourns in her native city, McCullers explained, "I must go home periodically to renew my sense of horror.” (Causey, 2019)

The man on the phone next to me is telling someone he won’t make his bus that departs at 11:50 now and the next one won’t arrive until 12:35 so he’ll have to take a taxi.

Hangs up and mutters, β€œThis is a stupid system.”
