Earlier this month, Zohran Mamdani went on Hot 97, New York’s preeminent hip-hop radio station, to tell the story of how he first entered politics. It’s a tale he’s told many times: In 2015, Mamdani started knocking on doors for an aspiring Queens city councilman, Ali Najmi. But when he told it this time, Mamdani highlighted the real reason he wanted to get involved.

That reason was Himanshu Suri, the Queens-raised rapper and co-founder of the groups Das Racist and Swet Shop Boys. Suri, better known as Heems, grew up with Najmi and had been campaigning on his childhood friend’s behalf.

It’s Heems.

Saved you a click: she thought $1.2 billion per year over 10 years totaled more than $1trillion.

DHS said that in addition to barring enrollment of future international students, “existing foreign students must transfer to lose their legal status.” The revocation, which DHS said was the result of “pro-terrorist conduct,” was first reported by The New York Times.

What does it mean that they “must transfer to lose”? Is she saying if they transfer they lose their status and that that transfer is being forced, or that they must transfer or lose it?

What is the justification?

Only the best words.

Until someone that owns an asbestos mine buys one of those trump gold cards…

No idea, I just quoted the article since I hate those clickbait headlines.

The latest, deluxe end point of these time and attendance tchotchkes and apps is something like Austin-headquartered HID’s OmniKey platform. Designed for factories, hospitals, universities and offices, this is essentially an all-encompassing RFID log-in and security system for employees, via smart cards, smartphone wallets, and wearables.

I think it would be mandatory. It’s against “preferred” pronouns, right? If they prefer to be called by pronouns that match their gender, it would be illegal to use them?

Much obliged.

The Tennessee GOP has just made it a felony to vote against their policies.

Got a link? I hadn’t heard of this before now…

Maybe that’s not such a good thing.

I’m very clearly not a lawyer or expert in any way here, but once he’s convicted doesn’t that change things? He’s no longer on trial, he has a conviction hanging over his head, seem inhumane to me to force someone to wait for a sentence/punishment. It would be one thing to let him wait until after his term to serve time or pay a fine, but not knowing what the punishment is seems very wrong to me.

Would it matter though? Trump would find a reason regardless…

These two are just genuinely horrible people.

He also doesn’t let Ukraine use starlink in Russian-occupied regions of Ukraine, according to a quick google search.

“In this instance, this individual was physically screened and permitted to enter because he was included on a formal invitation,” a United States Secret Service spokesman told the Beast.

We wouldn’t have let him into our party except we invited him.

Sure looks like it.
