he/him
Israel claims that every journalist or poet assassinated with their families, toddler burned alive in a tent, or doctor kidnapped, tortured, and raped to death in a concentration camp is an "Iranian-backed terrorist," so this "Leftist Logician" (dweeb) is clearly disingenuous, stupid, and racist
And? Is your point that she "Expressed an openness" to have a meeting?

A meeting is one thing, that's not a policy point. Never did she say she supported an arms embargo to Isreal, but her team repeatedly mentioned that she DOESN'T support an embargo.

You are flailing.

So… A BP agent filmed in LA in June kidnapping someone from a Walmart got arrested by Long Beach cops after drunkenly flashing his service pistol in a women’s restroom. He demanded they call BP Commander Bovino. After making bail he died of a drug OD at his parents house. lbpost.com/news/isaiah-...
A viral arrest, a drunken brawl and an overdose: the last days of a notorious Border Patrol agent
We obtained hours of body-camera video that give the fullest — and perhaps last — glimpse of Agent Isaiah Hodgson’s mindset when he became a flashpoint in the fight over immigration raids.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov I want you to watch this video of me slammed to the ground- why are you allowing this to happen to people you know are on the right side of history. They tied my hands behind my back and when I asked them to be loosened because I was going numb they said, “STFU.”
at one point, i watched a cook county sheriff’s officer (who appears to be in charge) point out a priest in the crowd.

he and a couple officers then went into the crowd , dragged him into the street, and arrested him.

situation is still tense as crowd jostles with police to get into the street.

Something everyone needs to know about @sfdirewolf.bsky.social Alice Wong was her commitment to Palestine. Just a year ago, she & I wrote a letter in @literaryhub.bsky.social defending six Palestinian journalists. Sadly, Alice now joins two of them on the other side: Anas al-Sharif & Hossam Shabat

I interviewed the big guy
Now that we’ve all seen The Lowdown—with its efflorescence of Tulsa textures, characters and cultural touchstones—editor-in-chief 2011prius.bsky.social wanted to ask Sterlin Harjo about some of the big-picture themes that run through it.

Read here: thepickup.com/sterlin-harj...
Sterlin Harjo Is Proud He Made Tulsa Look Like Tulsa - The Pickup
As ‘The Lowdown’ wraps up, we talked to Harjo about noir, skepticism, telling the truth about Oklahoma, and that land run scene.

The important thing is not whether the Trump performing sexual favors for Bill Clinton thing is true. The important thing is that we all pretend it’s true, and that someone asks Trump about it every day.

This is the most glamorous opening to an article about a white supremacist flattering journalist who lied to her readers and editors while having an affair with narcissistic crank who eats roadkill, swims in sewer water, will cause children to die, and is 50 years her senior that I've ever read.

You’ll never find a better distillation of how technology and capitalism fit together in the 21st century.
During the height of the pandemic, Tyson used Palantir to predict Covid-19 infections among meatpacking workers down to a nearly exactly figure. But rather than using this data to increase worker protections, Tyson used it plan for labor shortages + plant closures

Those of us who are SA survivors are used to the mass shrug in response to even the most overt evidence of horrific behavior. Epstein's crimes and the complicity of many influential figures involved have been known for decades (’05 to be exact). It's never mustered much interest or consequence.

Anthem BC/BS came back, 10 months later, and decided that it was going to deny me and my son's rabies treatments, after already approving the claim last December.

Denying a claim where if treatment were not given, results in death 100% of the time!
