“I think they should take his driver’s license. They should take his passport. They should give him a Citi Bike membership and limit him to that. That would be my advice for the incoming mayor,” @EricFPhillips told @errollouis nymag.com/intelligencer/2021…

Rodgers is so high on his own supply… it’s insane. I love how the personal doctors he hires to validate his preexisting vaccine skepticism are 100% trustworthy, but the public health experts who universally favor vaccines are the ones who may have perverse incentives/motives.

It would be impossible to draw up a more stereotypical antivaxxer argument than the one being outlined by Aaron Rodgers today.
For someone who believes he's a "critical thinker," he sounds identical to every old lady in my Ivermectin Facebook groups and Q Telegram channels.

San Diego Unified School District announces it’s canceling a day of school next week, “giving families the opportunity to focus on their own mental health and wellness.” Gee, why would people be annoyed about how schools are being run?

Should @EricFPhillips ever want a pay cut, there's a career in columnizing for him.

Sister Rosetta Tharpe is credited as the Godmother of Rock ‘N’ Roll. Before Elvis, Johnny Cash or Little Richard, there was Sister Tharpe- A Black woman who forged her own sound in a male dominated industry.
She does not get the credit she deserves.

“As the race matured, Yang just didn’t know what he was talking about. Had he done even a little more homework, his campaign’s read of the field and the moment could have made him mayor.” thedailybeast.com/how-andrew…
Eric Phillips retweeted
"No campaign—and Yang’s was excellent—can paper over a candidate who hasn’t done his homework," writes @EricFPhillips. "For a guy who ran a test prep company, Yang didn’t cram enough to make up for his breezy resume." trib.al/mLYiSar
Eric Phillips retweeted
"In a race with little big thinking, Yang didn’t cough up the lead because he couldn’t deliver something larger than his warmed-up and trimmed-down basic income proposal," writes @EricFPhillips. "It was the small stuff that did him in." trib.al/1jxMB0v

As New Yorkers — & @KGforNYC @ericadamsfornyc @mayawiley — wait for the outcome of the RCV process — all of us would do well to dust off @EricFPhillips sage advice for the next Mayor 🗽🍎✔️

We’ve worked hard to keep positive! Politics are deeply personal and have real stakes in people’s lives, but we have to find ways to offer criticism that ends up lifting all boats and moving the discussion forward, without getting into gross attacks.

Worth a read.
My take on the best route to NYPD reform. nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-o…
Eric Phillips retweeted
while this is a theory & there's room for arguments for other candidates as best potential NYPD reformers, some very rational, reasonable points here, with special insights about how intra-governmental & public affairs actually work

An ad supporting former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang in the New York City mayoral race comes with an interesting disclosure at the end: The top three spenders responsible for the ad are all Republican megadonors. ow.ly/Zck130rJfbj

Always an interesting exercise

Lauder + Parsons have so far spent less on test prep than they did on lobbying, PR and advertising to block de Blasio's effort to get rid of the SHSAT.
Thinking about when Kirsten John Foy said of test prep in '19: "With the investment, we will see the outcome that we desire.”
