How many times have you said “he shouldn’t have been resisting” when someone gets shot by police?
“He shouldn’t have been attempting to climb into the Capitol to disrupt congress”
@JohnathanPerk
where the Wisconsin legislature met while the Capitol was being built. The hotel burned down and he opened another one elsewhere in the city. A bank was built on the original site of the hotel, and it is now the offices of 4 Black-led organizations. 2/

Eston Hemings Jefferson is buried in Madison and there’s a proposal on the table to rename Thomas Jefferson Middle School after Eston instead. 3/3

Some additional Black history: Sally’s son Eston married a multiracial woman and moved to Madison, Wisconsin Territory. Their son Beverly - not sure how many “drops” he’d be considered to have - opened American House Hotel … 1/

I mean. This is the lede, right? “Authorities are investigating whether police munitions caused a fire that apparently killed a 14-year-old …”
@mattyglesias
Sometimes I kinda feel like you find humanity inconvenient. There was just a mass shooting in which three 9-year-old children died. It’s front of mind whether or not those candidates choose to emphasize it.

“Inflation” to most people means “prices are too high.” We’re still paying $7 for a dozen eggs. While that’s technically not inflation that’s what’s on people’s minds

You don’t get paid for being on the news. New members of congress members don’t get paid until February. How’s he supposed to pay a few months in advance before that? Also it’s “you’re”
@mattyglesias
Matt, you often (correctly) criticize people who argue against points that weren't really made, right?
That's what you're doing here. Maybe read the letter and rethink?

Had he gotten a yellow for tossing the ball (as one could argue he should have) he would not have engaged in further verbal sparring. He would have found the line and backed away from it.

I went back at 44. It was kinda fun being the only one in class who actually remembered many of the professors' references to stuff from the 80s and 90s. You'll do great!
RESISTERS: there will likely be Madison365 reporters in Madison and Kenosha tonight. They’ll have press badges. They are there to tell your story & amplify your voice. We will not publish identifiable photos of you. Please consider this in how you interact with them.

Also on the landlord who agrees with their politics thing: you can’t give special deals to members of Congress, and members of congress can’t accept specific deals. This is pretty basic ethics stuff

Nobody said there's a Latino 'race.' Lots of people are Latino and Indigenous, Latino and Black, etc. When the OP said 'white' he means non-Latino, and we both know that, and I don't think we need to be all 'well actually' about it.

What privilege you have to be able to “get away from this stuff.” Guess what man ... no getting away from it anymore.
@heymrsbond
If I may suggest a test, once you have it narrowed down. Take the full name. Put "President" in front of it, "PhD" behind it, then yell it loudly followed by "GET UP HERE AND CLEAN THIS GODDAMN ROOM RIGHT NOW"
If it feels good all three times, you have a winner.
@JohnathanPerk
Last year I had two life-threatening issues - burst appendix & heart attack - and I am doing great today because no nurse or doc or med student or ANYBODY ever questioned me or what I was feeling. Not enough people recognize this as white privilege.

Yes, people are actively discriminating against LBGTQ people. And yes, this group is free to buy ads, and we are free to point out who’s buying the ads and what their agenda is. That’s free speech too.

Oh, you said "any government health care would be worse" so I thought that meant you weren't on Medicaid. Still, you're fighting a private insurance company that's getting medicaid funding, I take it? That sucks, either way.

This is false nostalgia, I’m afraid. Journalists have always deferred to authority generally and specifically to this case, believed and published whatever police told them. This process is really just now being meaningfully challenged.

So when they said you didn’t identify yourself as press and “admitted” you didn’t have credentials on, they were lying. I am shocked, shocked I say

Average outstanding student loan debt is just over $28,000. $10,000 will make a significant difference for most people with student loan debt.

see though ... for example, the presence of the abolitionist movement isn't evidence that America wasn't founded on racist systems, because, you see, that movement was the *resistance* to the racist system.

I interviewed the organizers of the upcoming rally in Madison. They *say* they're non-partisan, and were also critical of Trump. But for the most part this "movement" looks to be funded / supported almost entirely by Republicans / conservatives / libertarians.

Probably the same time I stop dreaming about being in a play despite not having rehearsed at all, or learned the lines. I was last on stage in 1997
