Can eliminating traffic lights and adding a ‘Dutch’ roundabout fix a dangerous Philly intersection? @ingasaffron asks in the @PhillyInquirer

What do you think? https://t.co/AEZXYLsmqv

It's one thing for Joe Rogan to endorse a candidate. It's another for @BernieSanders’ campaign to produce a video bolstering the endorsement of someone known for promoting transphobia, homophobia, Islamophobia, racism and misogyny.

[Carlos Maza @gaywonk]

Bernie’s campaign cutting a campaign ad with Joe Rogan fucking sucks. Rogan is an incredibly influential bigot and Democrats should be marginalizing him.

[Dr. Marcus H. Johnson @marcushjohnson]

Joe Rogan today, Richard Spencer tomorrow? David Duke?

If we’re for throwing minorities under the bus to win over the white working class is that the next step?

We’ve said for years the anti-identity politics, class over race argument would lead to this.

The old order is collapsing from inequality & corruption.

The battle ahead is between:

1) Authoritarian populism (Trump) — featuring xenophobia, war mongering & racism.

Or:

2) Democratic populism (Warren, Sanders) — accountable to the people & an economy benefiting all.

Imagine a coach who convinced us Ryan Tannehill, Kenyan Drake, and De’vante Parker were no good.

Giving him another head coaching job, and letting him convince us Le’Veon Bell & Sam Darnold aren’t that good.

I wish you luck #Jets.

Jason Sherman's new documentary aims to explore issues around new construction and its impact on neighborhoods. #Fishtown activists Venise Whitaker, Cully Ward, Jennifer Romaniw, and Rachel Kaminski shared their experiences with “construction destruction.” https://t.co/2hd856IOEG
