Zohran Mamdani chastised a Manhattan synagogue that hosted an event promoting migration to Israel and settlements in occupied territories. His stance further tested his strained relationship with pro-Israel Jews in New York.

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Why can't American interviewers talk to Trump like this? The ITV Reporter is not using mindtricks, expertise, etc., he's just BEING NORMAL. Like, almost anyone I know would have what some are calling "follow up" questions and "pushback" - things I would call normal human interaction on the topic.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

RIP, queen. I only found out about this horrific event after the Watchmen tv show. It's incredible how much of the US' violent racist history it tries to bury, then white Americans are shocked by things like white supremacy or the continued existence of racist systems. Fletcher was literally there.
Viola Ford Fletcher, who as one of the last survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre in Oklahoma spent her later years seeking justice for the deadly attack by a white mob on the thriving Black community where she lived as a child, has died.

It’s hard to decide which is more disturbing—that the president of the United States thinks that being disliked is a mitigating factor in the murder of a journalist; or that he considers reporters who ask questions he doesn’t like to be “insubordinate.”
