It's oklahoma land run day so I'm going to tell you a story about how I was forced to celebrate it in grade school. 🧵1/4

We had a land run reenactment. They taped off parts of the black top parking lot into squares and

Our state superintendent engaged in conversation with 15 yr old students, during school, about an extremely sexually explicit show. A show that shows extreme sexual violence against women, among many other things that are inappropriate. Where you at Chaya Raichik? Come get him.

My usual TV beat is food, but I'm also a current Columbia University student, and I'm so sad & so frustrated with the way student protests on our campus are being reported. This will be imperfect, but I can't watch things that are so contrary to what I've actually seen and stay silent. 🧵

NYU faculty creating a ring around the Gaza solidarity encampment to protect their students after the school threatened mass arrest. So beautiful.

My favorite of all the Mr Walters post. 🥴

Imagine getting online as a nurse, arguing incorrectly that asking kids questions away from their parents is abuse, tripling down on that with everyone and trying to deflect…

Only to get someone pull up your court case where your husband is accused of SA

I covered C'ville & I covered Tree of Life shooting in Pittsburgh where I saw Jews, many anti-zionist, cry & pray & sing Ozi V’Zimrat Yah in streets

for Sen. *from PA* to compare Columbia students, many of them anti-zionist Jews, to torch-wielding nazis is beyond the pale

Federal Election Commission records show that last year, Hern received at least $16k in contributions from 6 lobbyists from Capitol Tax Partners, a D.C. lobbying firm that represented, among others, H&R Block. fec.gov/data/committee…

*The* Charlottesville guy, a literal white supremacist who *actually* chanted that, was allowed to graduate from LSE…the LSE director at the time was Columbia’s current president Minouche Shafik.

I truly believe hypocrisy matters least of all to hypocrites, but still…
