I already know that libel is hard to prove, but I didnāt thoroughly understand how fantastically stupid this decision was on Trumpās part. Ten BILLION?!? I donāt see them reaching a settlement anytime soon. Plus, it will keep the name Epstein in the headlines for months (at least), when weāve already seen how desperate the administration is to move on.
The Israelis holding protests are heroes. I love seeing news about that. They understand that itās not about ideology; itās about being a decent human being.
āMy experience as a Cargo Specialist in Starfleet makes me especially well suited for restocking shelves. And no, I didnāt serve on the Enterprise, so that falling barrel that almost killed Worf totally wasnāt my fault.ā
āWe played it safe,ā he said. āI [Cuomo] didnāt engage him. I didnāt debunk him enough. I wasnāt aggressive enough.ā
Zohran Mamdani reportedly tells business leaders he will ādiscourageā the phrase āglobalize the intifadaā
Cuomo blasted Mamdaniās clarification, accusing him of āfueling antisemitism.ā
āāDiscourageā people, thatās a wink and a nod,ā Cuomo said. āNo, you should condemn people saying it. Thatās hateful speech.ā
I, for one, am glad that Cuomo will be more aggressive. The election showed that aggression is exactly what people donāt want. Also, equating legitimate criticism of the Israeli government with āhateful speechā is exactly the kind of idiocy that shows how out-of-touch Cuomo is.
This election has energized young voters. Some may have been indifferent before, but the news coverage since the election has been relentless. If anything, Mamdani will become more popular.
I would choose death over a lifetime of slavery for myself and my descendants. To me, thatās not a hard question.
