If you aren't angry then you aren't paying attention.
Despite how predictable these cowards are, this statement is still jarring.

The guy that they want you to be terrified of (Mamdani) is making sure kids in NYC are fed all summer and people have access to cheaper groceries, all while they take food away from kids getting SNAP. Just sayin, feeding kids should make you the good guy.
“I knew I couldn’t be too Black.” Former NFL player and ESPN analyst Ryan Clark named something many Black professionals know deeply: the pressure to edit ourselves in hopes of becoming secure. But conditional belonging is never truly safe.

Someone said to me, "I'm sorry but I got your book from a library." Nobody should ever apologise for that. You read my book! That's brilliant! I grew up hanging out in libraries and the idea of a world without them fills me with dread. Without libraries, authors, like readers, will only suffer.
“The Premier ran last election on a ‘Public Health Guarantee,’ repeatedly promising that her govt wouldn’t delist any med procedures from public funding & that no ABs would have to pay … to access care. Yet here we are. What a betrayal of ABs who took the Premier at her word in the last election.”
Friends of Medicare@friendsofmedicare.bsky.social · 2w agoWhile Canada’s Premiers met this week, Alberta quietly reclassified all preventive testing as non-insured extended health services.

If you're arresting people at the airport on their way OUT of the country, your goal.was never border security. It's filling for-profit concentration camps.
Warner on CBS: I was embarrassed that the president went before our country and networks like yours carried this as news as opposed to a rehash of falsehoods. It is incumbent upon you and any responsible journalist to pushback on this.
Statement from Annie Farmer on meeting with Todd Blanche: "After meeting with Todd Blanche, I feel even more confident in urging senators to vote against his confirmation as the United States' Attorney General. "I found him abrasive, condescending, and intentionally noncommittal to survivors."
Epstein survivor Dani Bensky on meeting with Blanche: "Todd Blanche treated the meeting as a mere 'check-the-box' exercise intended to secure votes for his confirmation. He danced around his wording, repeatedly interrupted us and could not commit to anything that would demonstrate good faith."
