🚨 News: I checked in with @UnidosUSAF on the ground they tell me “most of the Latino precincts we are monitoring in Philadelphia have ALREADY surpassed their total E Day turnout from 2020.”
They report extremely high Latino support for Harris. Will monitor.
Gov. @maura_healey expresses support for Puerto Ricans in Mass., condemns “hateful, divisive and disgusting language that Donald Trump and JD Vance foster” after MSG rally.
Her veterans sec, @IamJonSantiago, was born in PR. He welcomed his 2nd son yesterday, she says #mapoli
This is Ryan Routh, the man who allegedly tried to assassinate Trump today.
He voted for Trump in 2016.
He apparently supported a Haley/Vivek ticket in 2024.
So, when MAGA world says "they keep trying to assassinate Trump," what they apparently mean is "Republicans keep trying to assassinate Trump."
Javier Marin, the founder of El Planeta, says there are a lot of important lessons to be learned about racial stereotypes in the new movie “American Fiction.” https://t.co/LRkZOOHWSn
NEW: I spoke with Columbia students who were chemically attacked on campus.
They've gone to the hospital. Their eyes burn, heads ache, chests hurt. They say administrators haven't reached out to them.
Students allege the perpetrators are tied to the IDF. https://t.co/HKPvQyH2px

I met with a coalition of faith leaders across my district to discuss our collective calls for a ceasefire in Gaza.
With over 22K Palestinians killed & thousands more slowly dying from hunger & disease, we need a permanent #CeasefireNow to save lives.
When white people are hired in any position, the automatic assumption is they were the best person. When Black people are hired, it’s assumed we got there because of affirmative action — which by the way doesn’t mean under-qualified. If affirmative action never existed, a lot of white people would still believe deeply in their own superiority because that is what they’ve been taught.
Considering there have been 30 presidents at Harvard and Claudine Gay was the only Black one in history, she had to be extremely qualified to even be in that position.
But don’t let me interfere with your racism. Go off.
Our dear Gotham fan, Myra, whose last wish was to attend a Gotham FC game last season, has passed away after battling cancer. We're so grateful to have fulfilled her wish by welcoming her to Red Bull Arena. Myra is forever part of #GothamFC. 🖤
Biden Political Appointee from the U.S. Department of Education, Tariq Habash is the latest to resign in protest over what he described as the administration’s “blind eye to the atrocities committed against innocent Palestinian lives…” His full resignation note:
This is infuriating. This was never about plagiarism or anti-semitism. It was about anti-Blackness and humbling Black leaders who don’t show up in ways others feel necessary. This is not surprising. https://t.co/vYIwIiWOKz
@AnnaHorford Sadly they might be our only options if both are the party's nominees. We have a crappy 2 party system and if you look at data and facts, no 3rd candidate will come close to winning.
