On the same day that the Saudi crown prince is visiting the White House, the governor of Texas designates the Muslim Brotherhood (the great boogeyman of all Arab dictators) and the Council on American Islamic Relations (a US-based NGO) as foreign terrorist organizations.

Like, you really don’t have ONE person on your team with the subject matter expertise to say “FAM THIS AIN’T IT”
Off the top, of the MANY East coast options, I would’ve suggested Rakim - Guess Who’s Back. As a bonus, he literally says “pump the volume up” in the first minute!! #blacksky

This video was posted to the official @democrats.org TikTok page. On one hand, nice of them to acknowledge the biggest star in the party at the moment.
On the other hand…this video makes NO SENSE. Why in the world would you feature a Kendrick Lamar song—and uncensored at that!!
Genuinely baffling

The question right now is whether Dem leaders opt to appease their donors or align w/ their voters.
A clear majority of the Dem electorate support Palestinians for the first time.
If doing right by a long suffering people was not enough, perhaps empirics and election results can shift Dem elites.

I wish that little Arab boy my parents raised in Brooklyn had this kind of representation.
But I'm just so happy for the all the little immigrant boys and girls across NYC that are standing just a bit taller today.
