Incidents like this damage our brand as a city, disrespect New Yorkers and endanger visitors and residents alike. All those who participated in this reckless behavior must be found and held responsible to the full extent of the law. We will not be a city of chaos. https://t.co/5XjRTlAqGs

The intra-Palestinian meeting in Moscow has precedent
— Hanna Notte (@HannaNotte) February 29, 2024
Russia's hosted such meetings in the past, most recently Feb 2019
Russia has long lamented the US' "monopolization" of the peace process & tried to carve out a niche for itself: mediating among the disunited Palestinians/2

A mass expulsion of Afghan migrants could destabilize the region and fuel radicalization. The West should pressure Islamabad to change course.
All eyes on #Chad right now
Chad has two internet trunks coming into the country: One from the Red Sea via Sudan; the other from Cameroon. Not possible for the totality of the country's internet network to be shut unless done centrally. A lot of rumors swirling; few facts. https://t.co/N6bDJZ2ixO

'Inappropriately low' bail set for Darrell Brooks, man in custody connected to Waukesha parade tragedy

^ This is not going to bode well for Democrats in Wisconsin and it is not going to bode well for race relations either! Waukesha is a swing voting area, it is where white people moved out of Milwaukee for better schools and less crime. Democrats simply can't support lower bail and other loose attitudes towards both those arrested and those convicted and still win elections there. Milwaukee already had a severe crime problem way before Covid.

Not a good time to have this tape of Rep. Tlaib out there either:

the spin that Waukesha perp was executing a hate crime against whites is already starting:
not to mention he purportedly found in social media that the perp was an "aspiring rapper"...but I gotta say rappers think killing with guns is cool, on the other hand, that killing with cars thing would be sissy stuff?

Included among the 5 that Darrell Brooks allegedly killed were 2 of the Dancing Grannies; that's basically like killing most Wisconsites' grandma. He's lucky Wisconsin abolished the death penalty in 1853:

just watched Waukesha hearing live video where the judge is clearly ASTOUNDED at the length and seriousness of accused's multi-state criminal record including but definitely not only that he doesn't show up in court, he went through a laundry list for a substantial amount of time, really sounded bad -

do note that a clearly black and a pretty-clearly-Hispanic cop are proud to stand behind DeSantis for the photo-op - to prove this is not about color of skin
edit to add this from a reply
I've gotta admit that official BLM was successful in the goal of fewer cops on the force - lots of cities and towns are begging for them. However, it's still contra their goals and a big FAIL: the good ones have quit and are still quitting for different jobs as they are fed up by not being appreciated and often straight out hated, and it's gonna cost localities MORE not less, to get lousy cops who have no scruples (supply and demand).
