Again, I've yet to see reporting on working-class, non-political staff. People catered that Rose Garden event. People are cleaning those offices and restrooms. There are administrative assistants.

It's a hostel. $1200/ month for a hostel dormitory. These design/ tech/ innovation "geniuses" are grifters. It's devastating that society is so mesmerized by these buzzwords & this aesthetic.
PodShare is a co-living space where tenants pay $1,200 a month to rent a "pod," or bunk bed, in one of its San Francisco or Los Angeles locations

Obama's entire rhetorical playbook: say absolutely nothing, always punch left, and take a condescending tone with young people and people of color.
Obama: “What Hamas did was horrific, and there is no justification for it. And what is also true is that the occupation, and what’s happening to Palestinians, is unbearable…. “You have to admit that all of us are complicit to some degree.”

At what point do we say, with all due respect, that after losing national elections to a freshman senator & a reality TV host, she's not an authority on this topic?.
every time i see a white person complain about the “far left” i can’t help but hear “we should not let marginalized people have rights”

CNN just completed a creative nonfiction writing seminar and desperately wants someone to ask how it went.
On the evening Robert Mueller submitted his report to the Justice Department, President Trump was on the tiled patio of Mar-a-Lago, bathed in golden light, with his wife and son Barron, who had reached teenagerhood two days earlier

"Community policing" like all policing is violent and internally inconsistent. What part of "community" is "be good because you'll never see is coming"?.
Check out the newest edition to our fleet. This "ghost" car will be used by our #CommunityPolicing & traffic unit. W/ its low profile graphics you'll never see it coming, especially at night. Make sure you're not speeding, wear your seatbelt, and stay sober behind the wheel.

This is genocide. Prisons are congregate living facilities just like nursing homes. The only difference is the value we assign to the lives inside them. This is genocide.

Isn't it amazing how Elijah McClain & the autopsy report are the only actors in this sentence?.
Elijah McClain, a Black man who died after a police encounter in a Denver suburb in 2019, died because he was injected with a powerful sedative after being forcibly restrained, according to an amended autopsy report publicly released on Friday.

Barack Obama went into office with a 72% approval rating - the highest in more than a half century of polling. If he could not get the votes, then he should be criticized for ineffectiveness.
Obama did not have the votes codify Roe — do people realize how many conservative Democrats there were still in the House before the 2010 midterm wipeout/retirements.
