El-Sayed: I think the bigger worry is not that I'll lose. It's that I'll win. I don't take corporate money. I never have, and I never will. And I'm going to be the biggest opponent of a system of politics that has sold off working people to the highest bidder.
Let the feds know what you think of the ill-conceived proposal to bring jets and runway expansion to toronto‘s island airport

holy crap this is easily the best Tony Award speech of the entire night. hell yes to all of this
"This is dedicated to the beautiful tapestry of immigrant families who make this country really special. May you one day not have to audition for the empathy that should be freely given by this country that benefits from your beauty. To the queer and trans communities that always will exist, no matter what people in power try to take away from them. To the people of Palestine who deserve to live a free life – a full life – without occupation. ... If there's one thing we can learn from vampires, it's that life is short, but that's its gift. Find beauty in the ephemeral and gratitude in what is not promised."

A story of "ruthless bombing", "razing", "ethnic cleansing" "expansionist gambits" and genocide with the full backing of the U.S. government, and the "unanswered demand for Palestinian sovereignty sits at the heart of all the regional upheaval".

Moroccan-American actor and singer Ali Louis Bourzgui dedicated his Tony Award win to “immigrant families” in the US, “the queer and trans communities” and “the people of Palestine”.
He won a prize for his role in The Lost Boys, a stage adaptation of the 1987 cult vampire film.
I wish ER patients languishing in hallways and chairs had more lobbyists at Queen's Park than the largest bank in the United States with $4 trillion in assets.
This is about you hijacking our politics to send our taxpayer money to a foreign government to conduct genocide and apartheid while the children in our own country go without basic healthcare and good schools.
THAT’S what this is about.
It is stunning that the government cannot confidently say that it isn’t antisemitic to criticize Israel for documented violations of international law.
The newly established council on rights and inclusion will get nowhere unless we get this clarity.
"Those who championed free speech in the UK and US now wage war on it. And here’s why: Palestine"

Bari Weiss is a major threat to truthful journalism
"Scott Pelley says Bari Weiss wanted 60 Minutes to say Renee Good was ‘driving toward officer’. Fired journalist accuses CBS News chief of interfering with report because it echoed what Trump said"
