@worldflood1 And noöne is entitled their own ethnostate. The Romani, for example, have never had anywhere to settle at all. Not even a shtetl. Should slaves have had one? Native Americans certainly deserve one by the thinking that has gone into genocide. Ah, but Romani, more. And then
I interviewed on a right wing outlet on Kamala Harris’s first media interview in her POTUS run.
I commended Harris’s economic policies, called out GOP obstructionism, called on her to stop arming Netanyahu, & repeatedly corrected the anchor for mispronouncing her name.
THE NARCISSIST'S NIGHTMARE (REDUX)
Her crowds are larger.
Her applause is louder.
Her audience is more enthusiastic.
She's controlling more narrative.
She's raising more money.
She's procuring more volunteers.
She's casting a wider net.
She's smarter.
She's younger.
She's happier.
She's a woman of color.
She started with nothing.
She's winning.
Thank you to @RepSwalwell for kicking off our 4th Annual Team Justice event in DC with motivating & energizing remarks to the crowd. We've got 72 days to go, and we ARE ready! We will win this battle for our democracy, and . . . WE'RE NOT GOING BACK! Because #JusticeMatters

@Chiangel1984 Agreed w/this 🧵 The humanities deficit in 🇺🇸 is also due to the over-focus on state tests scores (w/ a focus on math, reading, & science) that arose with No Child Left Behind in 2000. That’s 24 years of tests for the sake of tests, which made social studies more of an elective.
Walmart profits jumped to $15 billion in 2023.
Did it substantially increase wages or lower prices? No.
It spent $9B on dividends and buybacks — with most of the benefits going to the children of Walmart's founder, who together own 46% of the company's stock.
Textbook greed.
In a clear insult to the victims of the Yazidi genocide and all victims of ISIS, the Iraqi parliament schedules the second reading of the General Amnesty Law, which includes amnesty for ISIS members, for August 3rd. Shame and disgrace on anyone who supports this law.
Vladimir Kara-Murza, a US permanent resident rescued from imprisonment in Russia, displayed incredible eloquence despite the circumstances. He had been jailed by Putin since April 2022.
