Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.

The heads of New York City’s three public library systems testified today at the New York City Council to call on the City to reverse a planned $36.2M in proposed budget cuts in the FY24 budget.
Adams is such a shit mayor with the worst priorities.
Considering The Adams/Hochul double shit sandwich and the abysmal house performance in 22, I think the NYDems should consider breaking the bank to import Ben Wikler from WI to run the party.

This Tennessee thing is wild. The GOP could not care less about how shameful this is, the Speaker is reveling in this. Madness.
What a fecking speech by Justin Jones.
This is hands down one of the best speeches I have ever heard.
This is the AA who is about to be expelled? Can’t wait to watch it later tonight if so.
yeah, it was one of two.
MY favorite line out of many was something like:
"I am being charged with bringing dishonor and disorder to this chamber, but how does one bring dishonor to a house with no honor and disorder to a house that is out of order."

I mean the delivery. Even the water sipping for dramatic effect while he burned them down to their faces. WOW
This is the most extraordinary political event I have ever seen.

I think the GOP feckers have learned their lesson. They are all passing on asking him questions
After he excoriated the first few and made them look absolutely incompetent while keeping the exact same tone and delivery all the rest should have just sat the hell down and waited for the vote.I think the GOP feckers have learned their lesson. They are all passing on asking him questions
The one non white guy just tried and holy shit
Watching that Justin Jones speech and the interaction with that R dude after is just surreal. These republicans are barely fecking sentient. How does that country even function remotely with all those complete lunatics in so many offices.
As if the optics couldn’t get worse they let the white lady off
What skin tone is the third legislator?As if the optics couldn’t get worse they let the white lady off
Also a young black guy.
He’s fecked.
Tennazi
So this has happened 3 times before. The first time against members who wanted to block former slaves getting human rights, another time for a sexual predator, a third time for a rather substantial white collar crime and this time for, uhm, speaking out of turn on maybe doing something about kids being violently murdered at school.
Seems appropriate.

Another quite good orator. No doubt his hair infuriates those on the R side…
