I spoke with @OmarFatehMN about his campaign for mayor and the recent attempts by party insiders to undermine him, including the revocation of his DFL endorsement. My latest in @thenation

The Minnesota state senator won Minneapolis’s Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party endorsement for mayor—but the state-level party revoked it.

Grateful to speak with @Luc_pete and @Jacobin. The politicians who are bankrolling Israel’s genocide in Gaza are the same ones who lie & say there’s no money for housing, healthcare, or transit. I’m running for office to change that. https://t.co/R2eHRtvsKd

I just came up with a new AI product. It doesn’t work at all, but if it did, it also wouldn’t really help you. It has secured $400 million in funding and inspired three new podcasts

It's called literary journalism and Aviv is one of its greatest current practitioners. If you want nut grafs, go hang out with squirrels.
This is a bombshell, but it's also an infuriating example of burying the point. It's not until 4,400 words into a 9,000-word piece that we are told that the key stories in one of the most famous science nonfiction books of the 20th century are made up!

We give that grace to young politicians…
Lander told the Daily News his disagreements with Goldman on Gaza is secondary to what he sees as Goldman's lackluster opposition to Trump: "On [Gaza], we have some disagreements, but the core rationale is because it’s time for fighters not folders."

It’s official: I’m running for Assembly District 34. Families are living through an affordability crisis and immigrants are being attacked while billions are spent to fund Israel’s genocide in Gaza. This moment calls for a new approach to politics.
