Virulent anti-Mamdani push poll combines questions about his actual positions (housing affordability, millionaire tax) with Islamophobic questions implying that he supports "making halal mandatory in all city restaurants" and investigating "Israel's role in 9/11" (via @jccoltin.bsky.social)

The far-right conspiracy site Infowars says it has signed the Pentagon press agreement and says Breanna Morello will be joining the 'new media' press corps covering the Defense Department.
"I won't be moving to D.C. of course—thank god," she caveats. x.com/infowars/sta...

INFOWARS on X: "🚨MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT🚨 Breanna Morello will be covering news at the Pentagon as a part of the Pentagon Press Corps! The new Pentagon Press Corps consists of over 60 journalists that will combat the fake news stranglehold of legacy media. This is great news for truth and https://t.co/id0VtguTIW" / X

Eric Adams, endorsing Cuomo: "New York can't be Europe, folks ... Those Islamic extremisms that are burning churches in Nigeria, that are destroying communities in Germany, that have taken over the logical thinkings. And that's what I'm fighting for."

Fun beaver/fish interaction: When I approached this pond, I startled brown trout preparing to spawn below it (beavs filter sediment & keep downstream substrate clean). The fish dashed to the dam & hid in its base. Beavers created perfect spawning grounds: pristine gravel adjacent to dense cover! 🤯🦫🐟

US highway spending is a mess.
Yale prof @zliscow.bsky.social & colleagues found that South Carolina’s DOT spends $375,500 repaving a mile of highway – more than twice as much as North Carolina.
In @bloomberg.com, I spoke with Liscow about the wild inefficiencies of state DOTs.

Fascinating platform story happening around the Graham Platner stuff. The number one source for almost all of the discourse about Platner on X right now is from an account that only had 70 followers at the start of the week, isn't a real Maine news outlet of any kind, and was created in August.
