There is no shortage of courage in our country right now. It is just unevenly distributed.

I appreciate @GuardianUS for publishing my piece exploring the tremendous gap in courage between everyday people and elites—and calling on more elites to stand up.

NEW 📄 Neoliberalism must be understood not just as a policy project but equally as a cultural project.

In a new report, @shamsshahrzad @dbhargava68 & @harryhanbury show why progressives can’t afford to focus on policy alone & must engage in mass culture:

Did you know that there is special election happening in Congressional District NY-03, which covers Nassau County & parts of Queens?

This is the election to replace George Santos, who was expelled from Congress.

So much is at stake for immigrant and working class New Yorkers.

Lots more here, including details on how Pilip has, at times, misrepresented her role in the I.D.F.

“As a gunsmith, she was not a paratrooper,” said Nachman Shai, a former Israeli military spokesman and Labor Party minister.

Immigration is looming larger in the campaign, partly because it's becoming harder for Republicans to run against Biden on the economy. But there's a strong case that immigration has been a key part of Biden's economic success 1/

BREAKING: The NYPD's wasteful and dystopian robot will no longer patrol the Times Square subway station.

Its deployment breached the POST Act, which requires basic transparency over the NYPD's proposed use of invasive technologies. Good riddance!

Knicks are the best story in the league as of late. A lot of narratives flying around—it's trade season, so of course there are—but it's insane how good (dominant, really) they've been for the past month. https://t.co/VUH0bvm3eq
