agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

As expected, the US blew off its UN Universal Periodic Review (UPR) today. This was the first time that a UN member state completely disregarded its obligations to cooperate w/ the UPR human rights mechanism. The US was given another chance, but what's the point? www.miragenews.com/un-rights-co...

The US’ 4th Universal Periodic Review (UPR) will be held today in Geneva at 8:30 am ET/ 2:30 pm CET. The US won’t be there— a historic first for this important UN human rights mechanism ( i.e., the State under review not showing up.) Will the case of the “sandwich guy” come up? 🤔 #UPR50

I heard some old friends at Pod Save America were in town, so I decided to stop by. As we saw this week, we can change this country for the better. But it’s going to take all of us getting organized and having honest conversations about the best way forward.

“The story of this country is the story of patience in tribulation, and hope in the face of fear,” Nancy Pelosi argues. “What we choose to do in this hour of our history will determine the shape of America and the world for decades.”

Grassroots movements didn’t just inspire Nancy Pelosi—they fueled her. She never forgot that change starts in neighborhoods, not Capitol Hill. Her power came from listening to people, amplifying their stories, and turning their demands into law. #ThankYouNancy

Lots of very good ideas in here for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social about what it might look like to have a tech policy agenda aligned with human rights principles.
By resisting surveillance and extraction and pursuing goals such as affordability, dignity, and justice, New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani can show how technology can truly serve people, writes Rebecca Williams. The first step, she says, is to protect immigrants.

Listen, my children, as here is unfurled
The story of the sandwich that was hurled
On the 10th of August in ‘25;
What a moment to be alive!
As many chose to look down and duck,
One man decided he had to stand up,
And so he wound up, and said ‘What the f___’
And gave his sandwich a freedom chuck.
