@ryangrim @DropSiteNews There is a choice in Adam Smith’s district WA 9. Has Drop Site News reported on Kshama Sawant @cmkshama

@magi_jay @grahamformaine This story is complete BS, but lap it up Magdi. Your hero Hillary Clinton personally thanked Juanita Broaddrick for being silent about being raped by her husband.

[Marcus Stanley @MarcusMStanley]

The most shocking part of this story is that the NYT had a former AIPAC Activist of the Year (Katie Glueck) write a piece devoted to detailing unsubstantiated claims from a professional Republican activist (Lyndsey Fifield) on how a left Democratic Senate candidate who has promised to take on Israel (Platner) was a lousy boyfriend and sold it as a legit journalistic scoop.

@PeaceSignMoose @magi_jay @grahamformaine As evidenced by original post, name calling is all they got. Oh, uncorroborated accusations from Republican operatives.

[Travis McGavin @elianddad]

@NateSilver538 What are these cynical moves? Please elaborate. Are they more cynical than your posts now attacking Platner because he opposes Israel’s genocide in Gaza and oligarchy?

[Matt Stoller @matthewstoller]

Running uncorroborated claims on Platner from an ex-girlfriend who is a professional Republican operative is outrageous from the New York Times. It's consistent with their biased treatment of candidates skeptical of Israel.

@mehdirhasan Mehdi—isn’t the “Blind Sheikh” stuff bullshit anyway?

Leen Hijaz, valedictorian at her high school in North Carolina, said the following in her graduation speech:

"Before I leave the stage, I have one last thing to say. Every single person here has a voice; we have the privilege to use it when millions around the world are struggling and suffering to be heard. Whether it’s the millions suffering in Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Afghanistan and so many other countries around the world, or families being torn apart by ICE. These are not just an issue here; they are happening there, they’re happening right here as I speak. My point is, we’re not given a voice to stay silent."

Corey Robin, a political theorist at Brooklyn College, writes: "The mere mention of Palestine—maybe ICE, too—sent the high school principal, Melissa Moore, hurtling across the stage to seize the microphone from Hijaz, and stop her from saying these unapproved words.

Just look at this photograph: A young Muslim woman, speaking out, and a desperate, terrified principal trying to shut her down, lest the student say something unauthorized, disapproved, discordant with the views of an increasingly small clique of government officials and voters.

It's so pathetic. It reads like a comic play by Václav Havel. It looks like the desperate last days of the Soviet Union. I can only hope Hijaz speaks for a generation that will, one day, sweep all this garbage into the dustbin of history".

@adamjohnsonCHI I assume that is Adam Smith who is a pro-Israel hawk who just co-sponsored the joint operations bill between US-Israel

It’s clear Weiss made it explicit 60 Mins would lose whatever pretense of journalistic independence it had & Pelley couldnt stomach this level of humiliation. They paid for the brand, not the people. Look forward to 700 investigative segments about Hamas sleeper cells at Columbia

@LibyaLiberty Smug, old, white males who are racists, rapists, genocidal lunatics and pedophiles.

@LeftyWinter There have been times in US history where demands for change warranted a new party. Slavery led to the Republicans. Genocide, Medicare for all and a party that represents people not wealth are issues calling for a new party since the duopoly is beholden to the oligarchs

@federalbaseball That has to be one of the dumbest fielding decisions I’ve ever seen; Nunez wasn’t even covering first. Ranks up there with the Pirates 1B chasing Javier Baez to home.
