Considering that she helped create the anti-Hasan Piker hysteria in the media, it is only fair that Neera Tanden has to answer questions related to her Hasan Piker obsession in every interview that she gives.

On @AJHeadtoHead, I asked top Democrat and CAP head @neeratanden why she both quote-tweeted and retweeted Laura Loomer, "one of the most vicious anti-Black, anti-Muslim bigots in this country," and whether Democrats take Islamophobia seriously. Full show: youtube.com/watch?v=mh49HPVM…

OMFG! This response from @AbdulElSayed to a completely bigoted question is probably the best thing I’ve heard all year. Every bigot in America needs to listen to this three times.

BREAKING: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is warning that a future U.S. president could turn against Israel, potentially cutting billions in military assistance, as he seeks alternative alliances with India and Latin America before Trump’s presidency ends.

The Wall Street Journal wants you to believe that rent stabilized apartments are sitting vacant because landlords can’t afford to repair apartments. The truth is that these landlords delay repairs for years and decades, and are now trying to force New York to let them rent at market value so they can make more money. We broke it down.

The affordability crisis is not a vibe and never has been. 44% of Americans say they had trouble to pay for at least one essential in the past year. This is why we need to rebuild the economy starting from the essentials. Affordability policies provide short run relief and need to be backed up with structural measures including public options and climate policies.

When Trump raided John Bolton last year it was met w/ immediate outrage in the opinion pages of NYT, WSJ, WaPo, Atlantic & New Yorker. Since Rep Omar was raided Mon––and subsquently threatened w/ deportation––these same outlets have been silent. I wrote about this double standard

Unlike the raid on John Bolton, the targeting of Omar has elicited zero condemnation from NYT, WSJ, and Washington Post. theintercept.com/2026/10/15/…

Trump Is Targeting Ilhan Omar. Where’s the Elite Media Outrage?

Unlike the raid on John Bolton, which was roundly condemned by corporate media, NYT, Washington Post, and WSJ are silent on Trump’s overstep with Omar.

Now in LatAm, the biggest criminals in human history are selling themselves as the true, most-committed anti-crime drug warriors. ADLE, Noboa, Bolsonaro, Bukele. All deeply tied to narco and corruption. They then use the state to manage and profit from crime. State criminality.

At the height of "Plan Colombia" in the 2000s, there were never more than 563 US troops in Colombia. Congress mandated a cap of 600 (which may have been exceeded off-the-books for search-and-rescue missions). So 600 troops is a *lot*.

New stuff here. - 600 army personnel to train in Panama, and then with Colombian and Honduran forces - A new civilian Pentagon office, given $20m, to "help oversee the military's counter-cartel activities" (there's already a Joint Task Force Western Hem and a US Army WH Command)

🔴 El presidente Nayib Bukele aseguró que su Gobierno está evaluando otorgar liberación condicional anticipada a “más o menos el 50 %” de la población carcelaria que está acusada de colaborar con las pandillas en El Salvador. La declaración fue hecha durante una conferencia de prensa realizada ayer, tras ser cuestionado por las ventilaciones hechas por su hermano, Ibrajim Bukele, sobre la supuesta existencia de un equipo “independiente” con potestad para liberar personas capturadas durante el régimen de excepción. beta.elfaro.net/el-salvador/…
