Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer tells Politico he is running for re-election as Democratic leader. “I am running for re-election for leader, period.” — Politics and poll tracker. Naw, we’re good (I speak as a NYer).

Hasan derangement syndrome has nothing on Northernlion derangement syndrome now that DGG has decided to come after my comfort streamer of over a decade. Northernlion’s brand of positive masculinity is hard to come by on the Paul brothers’ internet. I won’t stand for the blasphemy and the smears

DUDE! Michael LaRosa, the former Biden spokesperson who has since become Fox News' favorite Democrat who trashes progressive Democrats, is one of the hosts of a high-dollar fundraiser for Hakeem Jeffries. www.thebulwark.com/p/jeffries-t...

Absolutely nothing was going to happen to Susan Collins because a donor couldn’t figure out how to properly hide her money stream. And now the only recourse is a public shaming. This happens all day, every day, to the majority of the politicians in Congress. “Illegally steering” aka lobbying

Zohran talks to a senile reactionary to help improve the lives of his constituents, all above the table. Hakeem scheduled a secret meeting with a Trump family member (no official position) that was leaked against his will, and expects us to believe it was about affordability. Centrists, cry more

If a candidate is anti-gay, I won't vote for them, or expect others to. If a candidate is racist they shouldn't expect to receive many votes from Black people. If a candidate is anti-trans... It's how groups of marginalized people have protected themselves against a hostile government.

New: Macklemore says Robert Kraft — who owns Gillette Stadium, where Macklemore & Ed Sheeran were to perform later this month — called Sheeran. Kraft rallied other owners together behind an ultimatum for Sheeran: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you won't be allowed in our venues.

I'm not sure how to start this. So I'm going to speak from the heart and share the truth. Ed Sheeran and his team have made the decision to remove me from The Loop tour.
But before I get into it, I want to say something that should be obvious. In this moment I think it matters. I am not a victim. Ed Sheeran is not a victim. Pink is not a victim. We have careers, money, opportunities, safety and audiences around the world. Whatever consequences any of us face for what we say, we get to go home to our families.

The victims are the Palestinian people. The men, women and children who have been killed, starved, displaced and forced to live through unimaginable violence. More than 20,000 children have been killed in Gaza alone. People are being killed today, and people will be killed tomorrow. I want to make sure that as I tell this story, we don't lose sight of that.

Ed is my friend. I've known him for 13 years. We've shared late nights, studio sessions and stages. He has this infectious magic about him that I've grown to love. I consider him a brother. And because of that, we've had some difficult conversations this past week. The type of talks rooted in love and respect for one another that still end in a place of fundamental disagreement. Nothing I'm writing here is out of spite or because I want to tear down his character. But as I told Ed multiple times on the phone, our friendship can't change my responsibility to tell the truth about what happened.

Last Monday, in the middle of all the media attention surrounding Pink and what I said at MetLife, Ed told me that Robert Kraft called him. We were scheduled to play Gillette Stadium later this month, which is owned by the Kraft Group. Ed told me that Kraft said I would not be allowed to perform in his stadium. Ed also told me that Kraft had rallied some of the other
stadium owners and collectively they gave him an ultimatum: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you will not be allowed to play in our venues.

Ed was in …What I said at MetLife I have been saying on stages around the world for almost three years. So why is it an issue now? Because now I'm sharing a stage with one of the biggest artists in the world, in some of the biggest stadiums in America. At a certain level of exposure, "Free Palestine" becomes too much of a risk. If I kept doing the shows, saying Free Palestine, with Ed implicitly supporting it, the crowd getting loud and showing undeniable support for Palestinian liberation, what artist might speak out next? The stage becomes resistance. Maybe that's why this time it became so important to silence me.

And one of the most effective ways to enforce that silence has been to weaponize the accusation of antisemitism. Antisemitism is real. And that is exactly why the word matters too much to be used as a shield against criticism of the Israeli state. When criticizing Israel, opposing Zionism or saying "Free Palestine" gets conflated with hatred of Jewish people, it doesn't protect Jewish people. It protects Israel from accountability.

I hope this isn't the end of my relationship with Ed.
Thirteen years of friendship doesn't disappear because of one painful disagreement. I hope we both continue listening, studying what is happening in Palestine and wrestling with what neutrality means in a moment like this. My door will always be open to continuing that conversation.

When my brother Omar was doing the subtitles for the video I posted from MetLife, I thanked him. He told me there's a phrase in Arabic:
لا شكر على واجب
"La shukra ala wajeb." There is no thanks for a duty.
That stayed with me. Because that's what this has become for me and millions of others around the world. A duty. Not something deserving of praise or gratitude. Not brave. Human.

Who is winning the internet, who is getting canceled, who gets to play the stadium and who doesn't, all of it becomes so small when held against what we are actually witnessing in Gaza and the West Bank. An entire people be…

Politicians find 20 ways to speak vaguely on affordability. I find it hard to believe a response can’t be wordsmith’d that isn’t shitting on LGBTQ+ folks “I don’t think this issue is front-and-center for most working people and will continue to support finding a respectful, long-lasting solution.”

The big picture: OpenAI tapped policy professionals with Republican and Democratic ties, as well as industry experience, as bipartisan efforts across the country to regulate artificial intelligence intensify.

Driving the news: Jessica Schumer, former Council of Economic Advisers chief of staff in the Obama administration, will oversee policy and partnerships across the Northeast.
