A war criminal has no right to lecture anyone about “safety.” Tens of thousands of Palestinians AND Israelis have died because of Netanyahu’s callousness and negligence.
If we ever needed more evidence that the Times props up the elite and the status quo, here it is. Seriously? A Native American woman might join the Senate and help stop authoritarianism, and they focus instead on her bad temper toward her aides?
This is bullshit on so many levels
SCOOP: Inside the tumult of Mary Peltola's Senate campaign in Alaska and her time on Capitol Hill.
Peltola is known publicly as kind and affable. But aides recall angry outbursts, slurs and a shove. (She also required staff to feed a pet chameleon.)

Big Tech thinks they can buy whatever they want, including politicians. This is how we fight back
BIG AI IS BUYING OFF POLITICIANS. We're doing something about it.
As people demand action to stop Big AI from putting our lives in danger, execs from @OpenAI, @PalantirTech, and @a16z built a monster Super PAC to pay politicians to kill common-sense regulation.
We’re calling on every politician to REJECT @LeadingTheFutureAI. 10 federal candidates are already with us.
If you’re worried about AI and you’re looking to take action, you should know about Leading the Future. Read this 🧵 to learn more.

Met the fabulous @MichelleButeau today at @Morning_Joe. I’m a huge fan of her #SurvivaloftheThickest, a beautiful portrayal of the real NYC.
If @AIPAC supports @MikeRogersForMI, they will guarantee a victory for @AbdulElSayed and @TheDemocrats.
Go for it, AIPAC!
NEWS —
AIPAC is considering a major campaign, expected to be in the tens of millions, to boost Mike Rogers over Abdul El-Sayed, sources tell me and @jennymedina.
AIPAC has told allies of the plan.
We could just be getting started in Michigan.
This is revolutionary! A forceful and direct challenge to Big Tech and all the damage they have done. Gutsy move by @Keir_Starmer and @UKLabour
I am simply not prepared to be a bystander when the safety and happiness of our children are at stake.
We will ban social media access for under 16s, and give children their childhoods back.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The platforms, like Apple iOS/iPadOS/macOS, Android, Google Chrome and Microsoft Windows have parental controls that give parents the tools needed to restrict or block underage children access to social media.

$10 million from the man who gave NYC stop and frisk, defended it for years and only apologized when he needed votes for President.
That’s the money behind Micah Lasher
The largest single super PAC in NY-12 is not from any Artificial Intelligence group (supporting or opposing Alex Bores), but from former Mayor Michael Bloomberg (supporting Micah Lasher) with $10M
Bloomberg tried to buy the Presidency in 2020 and lost.
He tried to buy the Mayoralty for Cuomo in 2025 and lost.
Now he’s trying to buy a House seat.
And he will lose again.

When I suggested taxing the wealthy, the Governor at the time always blocked it.
My how things have changed! @GovKathyHochul is doing the bold thing and the right thing: putting working people first.
A very good day for NYC and @NYCMayor cbsnews.com/newyork/news/pie…
To all the critics of this plan:
Neither the private sector nor the public sector has solved the growing problem of food deserts.
So kudos to @ZohranKMamdani for not accepting the broken status quo and helping families get affordable food.
That doesn’t sound so radical to me…

No one should have as much power as Sam Altman has right now.
We need to rein him in, so it’s time to #QuitGPT. Act now! @QuitGPT

Sid, you really don’t know anything about @ZohranKMamdani. @NYCMayor loves our city and our country, hates all forms of prejudice, opposes political violence and wants to unify us. Which is helluva lot more than I can say for you since you just can’t stop spewing hate.

SUCH a smart move by @ZohranKMamdani!
A transcendent plan for affordability and a perfect way to handle Trump.
Right on, Mayor!
A bold and brilliant move by @zohrankwamemamdani!
Exactly the right approach to Trump and a potentially transcendent plan for affordability for New Yorkers.
Right on, @nycmayor! gothamist.com/news/mamdani-p…
Very proud of @DanteqdeBlasio for taking a stand against ICE. And this father agrees: #AbolishICE
Just got out of jail for protesting ICE’s violent, authoritarian actions across the country. ICE has no place in NYC #AbolishICE
Trump created this crisis so he could emulate Nixon’s 1968 “Southern Strategy” and get Americans to vote in favor of “law and order” in the midterms. Now it’s backfiring. His call to @GovTimWalz shows he’s failing and he knows it. #AbolishICE apple.news/AR3RJ56H5Qw6upc9j…
This is the Kent State moment of the Trump era. #AbolishIce theguardian.com/us-news/2026…
