Washington Ferries wants you to think that the workers who called out sick are whiny and spoiled by posting the very tippy top of the pay scale. Here's their 2023-2025 contract were they have engine room workers making fucking $60k. Don't let the bosses trick you
Ms. Rachel announces she’s matching Macklemore’s $1 million donation in support of Palestine:
“I will match Macklemore's donation and I invite every wealthy white celebrity to match it and speak out against the genocide in Gaza.
Over 20,000 precious Palestinian children have been killed and children continue to be killed every day.
We have a moral obligation to use our privilege and platforms to protect children and human rights.”
Councilor Green responds to (an extremely cynical and unhinged) call from the Portland Police Association to resign.
He did not resign and, instead, stood on business.
Joe Rogan can recite every random conspiracy at least loosely, but is “not familiar” with the crimes of a sitting Senator in the state he lives in, sub-50 days from mid-term elections. Prolific bullshitter.
Kanye West did a song titled Heil Hitler and is currently doing a concert tour, which has included multiple dates at Raymond James stadium in Tampa that has banned Macklemore for saying end the genocide & free Palestine
fucking absurd
That just is not true. Please stop these ridiculous talking points. I have gone to stand with these families every single year for a decade now. My friends and neighbors are not crying for 6 hours straight. We are greeting each other, hugging each other, laughing at the memories and the jokes the families tell remembering their loved ones. Most politicians do not stay the entire time, in fact every year, at the end it is usually just me and former mayor Mike Bloomberg. This year was different @NYCMayor did. He stayed for every name and even stayed after to talk to families for 45 minutes. My friend who works for the memorial, even told me it was a new record. @AOC , for the record was there at 7:30 am and also stayed for every name and this brief moment they said was of them laughing was just when she walked up to him and said hello.
When I said hello to him with my daughter he even whispered to me after our hug “hi my friend! Hi Zoe! Sorry I didn’t see you, I’m super focused on the stage right now.” And he was. He listened to every story and every name and was there for our community of lower Manhattan. We appreciate you both.
I hope these gross talking points will end.
It is shameful that @nytimes@TheAthletic buried the fact that the biggest punishment in NBA history was the result of an investigation by journalist @PabloTorre. And to call it the result of a "podcast episode" is a further slap in the face. He won a Pulitzer for this story and they call it an "episode" instead of, at the outset -- crediting him with exposing this scandal. Really really lame.
Hakeem Jeffries supporting unconditional financial support for Israel but saying no to Medicare for all, SOMETHING THAT ISRAELIS GET WITH OUR TAX DOLLARS is some real bullshit
