The scope to which Israel will go to bury its criminality is astounding. Meanwhile, ppl are still hungry, unhoused and subject to bomb attacks.
Israel still won’t let international journalists into Gaza.

More elections are already around the corner, mere days.
And Democrats have opportunities to build on their November gains by flipping more offices: in Tennessee, in Georgia, in Florida.
And that's just the tip of a busy election month.

I’m still thinking about Bari Weiss saying that Hasan Piker (extremely popular influencer) is less of a measure of where Americans are than Alan Dershowitz (extremely unpopular Epstein associate, his own neighbors won’t sell him a pierogi)

When I get frustrated by Durham’s inefficiencies and fxs in planning, something always happens to make me remember I love this city. Like this week of all of us coming together to protect all our ppl agst the savagery of Border Control and ICE.

Anonymous American Gestapo ICE agents chase a local flower shop owner into the woods to abduct them.
Neighborhood bystanders follow them into the forest and film them, harass them, and shame them until they leave.

Things to know about Epstein hugger Ken Starr: prosecuted Bill Clinton for lying about consensual (if inappropriate) sex, got fired from Baylor University for doing nothing about an on-campus rape epidemic.
Republican legal icon and Clinton scourge Ken Starr signs off a touching note to Jeffrey Epstein with "hugs." Amazing.

Amen. And another sexual predator, Andrew Cuomo, was almost every powerful person's choice for mayor of New York.
My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

I love my local bookshop, The Regulator.
There are 37 donors funding the $300 million build of the new White House ballroom.
Unsurprisingly, Amazon is on that list. But you know who isn’t? Independent bookstores.
And this is why it will *always* be bookstores over billionaires. ✊
