A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa. It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;) It's so New York.

‘Tate raped and strangled us’ - women talk to BBC. Farage said Tate was an 'important voice' for men. There is something very creepy about Farage, which deserves much more public attention.

Why crypto might be a big mistake youtu.be/-zpijANwCIQ?... Crypto is not money. It’s not secure. It’s not stable. It’s just speculation wrapped in dogma — and a huge risk to society.

$162,000,000,000. The amount the world’s biggest banks INCREASED their fossil fuel funding last year. Our children’s futures are inconsequential to these psychopathic corporations. And these psychopathic corporations have governments in their pockets. The system is suicide.

Sen Padilla identified himself while he was doing the job his constituents elected him to do. In response, this administration disrespected him, threw him to the ground, and cuffed him. They did this to a sitting U.S. senator. What makes you think they are not going to do that to the rest of us???

A DHS spokesperson defended the detainment, accusing Sen. Padilla of failing to properly identify himself during Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference. But multiple videos show Padilla clearly identifying himself as a senator.

Sen. Alex Padilla, who was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference, is the ranking member of Judiciary’s subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, and border safety, which has “oversight of federal agencies with citizenship, asylum, refugee, and immigration enforcement responsibilities.”

Senator Padilla was driven violently to his knees–as if made to kneel before the authority of the executive–because the administration called his questions “disrespectful”. This should offend not just the other 99 Senators. It should offend the conscience of this country.

As I said in an interview with @npr.org in January, “Kennedy has been told…by experts in the field that his positions on vaccines are wrong and not supported by scientific evidence, and he refuses to listen. I think that that is a very dangerous position for the Secretary of HHS to have."

Misread to add Yusuf to long list of people who have fallen out with Farage. The real problem for Reform is that even in a party designed with zero meaningful provision for internal democracy, his chosen enforcer was incapable of running it without alienating everyone else.
