This "bipartisan fury" is from the exact people you knew would be perfromatively outraged about anything Mamdani would have said about October 7 and its aftermath. www.mediaite.com/media/news/m...

Mamdani’s October 7th Anniversary Message Sparks Fury on Left and Right: ‘Shame On You’
Moskowitz fumed, “He basically said ‘The Jews that died, sad, but it’s their fault.’ He needs the city’s antisemitism policy for himself. Just an atrocious statement.”

In the 1830s, Muhammad Ali's Egypt seemed poised to take the place of the Ottoman Empire, with control established over the Levant and Hejaz and colonial expeditions pushing deep into Central Africa. A few years later, it would all start to fall apart. What if it hadn't?

the thing I have found most impressive about the new-look #USMNT, at least so far, is that they have wriggled their way out of imperfect games it's been an understandably uneven window performance-wise but they have made their chances count, thanks in part to some attackers who might be ready *now*

There’s a book called “The Tory Syndrome” from 1980 which argues that Canada’s Tories are so dysfunctional because they’re just a coalition of everyone who isn’t a winner under the Liberals, and those groups have little in common and don’t like each other.

The fact that there is a social stigma around being a vegan is frankly embarrassing for us as a society. At absolutely worst, veganism should be accepted as a perfectly valid lifestyle choice in a liberal society, and imo it should be seen much more positively than that

If a neighbouring country is sending political operatives from the ruling party into Canada to advise and assist separatists on how to promote and campaign for secession from Canada and providing them with technological and logistical support for their campaign, that country is no longer an ally.
