Que ça serve de leçon à toutes les personnes racisées qui font le choix de militer et d'être candidates dans des partis racistes ou racisto-compatibles/collabos de l'extrême droite: aux yeux de vos partenaires politiques, vous êtes et resterez toujours des bougnouls à expulser 🤷

So much going on in New York, so many challenges for New Yorkers, and yet early on in this mayoral debate they are asking questions about Israel and Trump and the ceasefire deal.

The mayor of New York has no control over foreign policy.

Ridiculous.

Lots of questions for Mamdani on his views on Gaza and Palestine.

Zero so far for Cuomo who volunteered to be a lawyer for an ICC-indicted war criminal.

Leavitt: "The president tapped into tariff revenue to keep WIC money going out the door. He found a creative solution to keep the troops paid. And rather than congratulate him for doing that, this unprecedented action to get our troops paid, Dems want to sue him for it. They're saying it's illegal."

Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)

It occurs to me Trump is doing something extremely similar to what Sam Bankman-Fried went to prison for.

SBF took funds from customer deposits at his crypto exchange FTX and put them into his other company Alameda Research to keep it solvent.

Le livre «les Charognards» paraît ce vendredi sur le business de la mort. L'enquête pointe les dérives causées par l’application de logiques de rentabilité classiques dans un secteur qui ne l’est pas. Le manque de contrôles est aussi un problème.
