12 dead at a mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach.💔 A 43-year-old father of two, Ahmed al Ahmed, snuck up & tackled a gunman to disarm him. Ahmed was shot twice. Both Jewish & Muslim faiths teach that “to save one life is to save all humanity.” Let us hold fast to our humanity.❤️

The moment an Israeli missile hit a tent in Gaza was caught on camera when a Palestinian girl filmed herself showing her hair clips.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

One underreported fact is Brendan Carr—the FCC chairman who got Kimmel suspended—spent the last four years warning that government censorship of critics leads to authoritarianism. Carr co-authored P2025. He know he's advancing authoritarianism. That's the point. www.qasimrashid.com/p/the-cancel...

The Cancellation of Jimmy Kimmel

By indefinitely suspending him, ABC is reminding us that trust in corporate media is dead for a reason—but there's something even more sinister afoot we cannot ignore

You may be funding this incipient toxic culture that spectacularizes violence. Remember who to boycott. "The UFC is even sponsoring the United States Semiquincentennial dubbed America 250, joining the likes of Amazon, the Coca-Cola Company, Oracle and Walmart."

Birthright citizenship is a Constitutional RIGHT. Any attack on it is an attack on us all. This is an attempt by far-right justices to attack immigrant communities and remove protections from any American who questions Trump. Your rights are nonnegotiable. We can’t compromise on that basic fact.

My response to the councilwoman on twitter: "This is false @VickieforNYC, I'm a private sector entrepreneur with a thriving small business in the heart of Manhattan. Please delete this incorrect tweet. Take out a paid subscription to support entrepreneurialism" www.crisesnotes.com#/portal/signup

Here's a convenient list of 'economists' who should immediately lose their tenure and never be listened to again.

Worth noting that NOT ONE OF THEM actually has a private sector job working in economics or finance. They're all academics.

And for good measure, might be worth looking into whether any of them are noncitizens here on a visa.

I am thrilled to see the huge turnouts in major cities! But you know what? I'm equally thrilled to see the proportional turnouts in smaller towns, especially the ones where people know they'll be recognized by their MAGA neighbors. Thank you all -- you can be proud of your communities today!
