It's an incredible moment the city of Richmond is in and I feel we have a great opportunity to do bigger things. I feel like I have been showing the community how I can do things and deliver. As mayor, I will be the no-nonsense, results-oriented leader that Richmond needs today.
The Kash Patel thing is so annoying because it's just like, can you just let them have a victory? You know, the second you it's so selfish.

I'm not British Born Mr @Nigel_Farage I am as British as u r. Yr comments r offensive&racist. I wld be frightened 2live in country run by U Zahawi in a 2015 tweet, which was only deleted on Monday as he announced his defection to Reform UK. The tweet appears to have been in response to a broadcast interview in 2015 in which Farage was asked if he was in favour of keeping laws that ban employment discrimination on the grounds of race or colour.
Scott Wiener has an unusual distinction in American politics: He upsets almost everybody. In the months before I met the California state senator-who is now running for Nancy Pelosi's congressional seat-he had been harangued at one public meeting after another. In October, pro-Palestinian protesters disrupted his campaign's pumpkin-carving event to shout: "Wiener, Wiener, you can't hide; we charge you with genocide." (This was not an isolated incident.) His usual response in these situations is to wait calmly and then carry on as normal.
I don't really care what colour a kid's skin is some deserve to be in poverty and some don't? That makes me pretty angry, she said. Does Nigel Farage want to go around and say: White? Yeah, you can have the money. Black? No, I'm sorry, it's not for you.' What sort of country does he think we are? If you're the mum next door who works in the NHS, has lived here all her life, her kids lived here all their life,
I gave you the opportunity to be a man. You didn't take it, Ryan said. I gave you the opportunity to speak to five and a half million people and prove to them that you are not insider trading. That's a f*cking gift, I might add. A gift and you turned it down. He added, I'm not gonna interview you now, I don't play games, I handle sh*t like a man.
In the 1950s, before the sexual revolution, before the New Wave, before feminism, there was Bardot: she was sex, she was youth, and, more to the point, Bardot was modernity. She was the unacknowledged zeitgeist force that stirred cinema's young lions such as Francois Truffaut against the old order. Bardot was the country's most sensational cultural export; she was in effect the French Beatles, a liberated, deliciously shameless screen siren who made male American moviegoers gulp and goggle with desire
X Screenshot CNN's Jake Tapper took to social media on Sunday to denounce anyone who supports conspiracy theorist and rabid antisemite Candace Owens's bigoted bullshit. Both Tapper and The Daily Wire's Ben Shapiro have condemned Owens for pushing what journalist Yashar Ali called Neo-Nazi propaganda, including dangerous Talmudic conspiracies. On last week's podcast, Owens held up a copy of antisemitic tome, The Talmudic Jew, and told her listeners that Shapiro and other Jewish people believe they are contract lords.
I'll tell you what I don't believe, and the whites were quick to say this: Charlie Kirk was this generation's Martin Luther King, Chappelle said after discussing Jimmy Kimmel's temporary suspension by ABC over comments about Kirk following his September death. That's a reach. They both got murdered in a terrible fashion. They both got shot in the neck, but that's about where those similarities ended. Chappelle dismissed Kirk as a motherf**king internet personality and nothing like MLK.
Graham Platner, a combat veteran, political activist, and small-business owner who has never served in office, seemed to check many boxes for a progressive upstart. Platner, who says he and his wife earn sixty thousand dollars a year, has spoken passionately about affordability, and has called universal health care a "moral imperative." He seemed like a rising star, but then some of his past comments online directed against police, L.G.B.T.Q. people, sexual-assault survivors, Black people, and rural whites surfaced.
I haven't looked at the article. I, of course, have heard about it. But, conspiracy theorist sometimes I am a conspiracy theorist, but I only believe in the conspiracy theories that are true. And, by the way, Susie and I have joked in private and in public about that for a long time. For example, I believed in the crazy conspiracy theory back in 2020 that it was stupid to mask 3-year-olds at the height of the Covid pandemic, that we should actually let them develop some language skills.
