No one in Congress can speak to the genocidal war crimes occurring in Gaza better than Sister @RashidaTlaib. But the derelict duopoly backs AIPAC while stabbing this valiant sister in the back and is complicit with the carnage of incessant militarism against innocent people. Palestinian lives are valuable. #CeaseFire NOW!!
I am the only Palestinian American serving in Congress, and my perspective is needed here now more than ever. I will not be silenced and I will not let anyone distort my words. I’m from Detroit, where I learned to speak truth to power, even if my voice shakes.

I'm glad to say that this is on the wain. It used to be a regular ploy, but now, with better technology, whenever someone hears a European accent they auto-grat that check immediately
What is the “ugly American” tourist equivalent of European tourists who don’t just negligently forget to tip in the US, but loud and proud intentionally don’t tip and call attention to themselves behaving like barbarians?

Perfect. Clearly shot from some motorized gizmo, not a bike, weaving in & out of the bike lane, probably doing 25 MPH, not following car rules or bike rules and a danger to pedestrians. Whatever you think of bike lanes, their use by unlicensed motorized vehicles is a scourge xitter.cf/berkie1/status/1717888…

Judi Dench was on Graham Norton last night to push her new book about her life and work with Shakespeare. After making the point we quote Shakespeare daily without knowing it, this happened:

I’m old enough to remember when Twitter was a valuable source of information during times of conflict.

In 93, met Mr. Rodriguez in Harvard Square, I can't remember if the reading was at Adams House or Harvard Book Store, he signed my book, and we talked LA tamales, and I was so homesick after his visit. What a great book!
My memoir "Always Running, La Vida Loca, Gang Days in L.A." is again being banned. For years it was one of the most 100 books banned in the U.S. With the upsurge of book banning across the country, it's now a targeted book. Please read Banned Books! We need more books, not less.
