Gavin Newsom@GavinNewsom·
Stone cold racism on a scale I have NEVER seen in my lifetime is happening in real time.  Louisiana Governor Landry suspended a primary election — where tens of thousands of people had ALREADY VOTED — to redistrict and eliminate Black representation. Our country is supposed to be about the expansion of liberty and freedom. We're seeing the exact opposite.

Power to the People ☭🕊@ProudSocialist·
Xi Jinping is putting on a clinic: “The whole world is watching our meeting. The International situation is turbulent. The world is at a new crossroads: Can China and the US overcome the Thucydides Trap and create a new paradigm to meet global challenges together.” The Thucydides Trap is the structural tension that occurs when a rapidly rising power (China) threatens to displace an established ruling power that is in decline (US). By mentioning the Thucydides trap, Xi Jinping is signaling that China is the new leader of the free world and what’s remarkable is, unlike the U.S., China achieved this without dropping bombs, waging endless wars, or spending $1 trillion a year on its military. Instead China became the leader of the free world by investing in its people with housing, education, health care, and the best modern infrastructure in the world, and investing in its neighbor countries through its Belt and Road Initiative, which has funded ports, railways, and energy networks across the Global South. The US became a “superpower” through endless wars, corruption, and selling out its own people to the billionaire class while China became a superpower and surpassed the US by building trade and relations with the world and investing in its people instead of wars. Americans would be wise to take note and then change our corrupt government.

In this clip, Speaker Johnson says maps that gave Black voters representation "divided Americans." This is the exact language used by segregationists and opponents of the Civil Rights movement to attack figures like MLK. They are using the same playbook to destroy his legacy.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

Mike Johnson defends egregiously gerrymandered maps like the new one in Tennessee, but then in the very next breath claims the Virginia map that was struck down "was a hastily drawn gerrymander that was unconstitutional"

Pedro Sánchez@sanchezcastejon·
La OCDE acaba de publicar sus datos. Desde el fin de la pandemia, la renta real disponible de los hogares españoles ha crecido un 8,3%. Más del doble que en Francia. El triple que en Italia. Diez veces más que en Alemania. Solo en el último año, la renta real creció en nuestro país casi el doble que la del promedio de la OCDE. No partimos desde el mismo punto. Aún queda muchísimo por hacer. Pero la dirección que llevamos es la correcta. SEGUIMOS 💪🏻

Surprise, surprise: Israeli Minister of Defence going after a kid.
ישראל כ”ץ Israel Katz@Israel_katz

Lamine Yamal eligió incitar contra Israel y fomentar el odio mientras nuestros soldados combaten a la organización terrorista Hamas, una organización que masacró, violó, quemó y asesinó a niños, mujeres y ancianos judíos el 7 de octubre. Quien apoya este tipo de mensajes debe preguntarse: ¿considera esto humanitario? ¿Es esto moral? Como Ministro de Defensa del Estado de Israel, no guardaré silencio frente a la incitación contra Israel y contra el pueblo judío. Espero que un club grande y respetado como @FCBarcelona se desmarque de estas declaraciones y deje claro, de manera inequívoca, que no hay lugar para la incitación ni para el apoyo al terrorismo.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez: “We received a letter today demanding that Lamine Yamal be suspended because he raised the Palestinian flag yesterday during the celebrations of FC Barcelona. I think this is something laughable — asking me to suspend a player simply for raising the Palestinian flag. I believe FIFA should instead be contacted to prevent you from participating in football because of what you have been doing for more than three years: systematic killing and genocide carried out in the most horrific ways. Lamine Yamal will be honored, and this flag will become an icon of celebrations in the streets of Spain from today onward.”

I'm unsure if Zohran Mamdani has the mandate of heaven or if this is the first time America has seen a competent leader.
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@NYCMayor

When we came into office, we uncovered a $12 billion budget deficit. Today, I’m proud to say we brought it down to zero. We didn’t close the gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets and making historic investments in public housing. Call it Pothole Politics. Call it Democratic Socialism. It's government that delivers for the people who make this city run. That’s what New Yorkers deserve. And that’s what we will keep fighting for every single day.
