I met with Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian student at Columbia University, who was imprisoned for 104 days by the Trump administration for opposing Netanyahu’s illegal & horrific war in Gaza. Outrageous. We must not allow Trump to destroy the First Amendment & freedom to dissent.
This new Metro fare is so funky. $2.20/ride means 5 rides is $11. 10s are much easier than 11s. I had to get a calculator out today to make sure I was adding the right amount to my account.
This is every day with the Charlotte account. Never met a club more willing to chirp with nothing to show for it.
Nine available. Nine taken. 29 teams couldn't but we did 😮💨
Experts call for charges to be dropped against journalists 'arrested for doing their jobs' cincinnati.com/story/news/202…
I was there. $2500 for many who immediately made their way to the sidewalk is out of control. I’ve never seen an escalation like that, so fast and so unnecessary. A cop pointed a gun at me while I was on the sidewalk and they screamed curses at us while chasing us back to Ohio.
There can be no other response than this. If we erode the press' freedom to cover newsworthy events, we erode our democracy.
I just spoke with Gov. Mike DeWine - he says his team is getting involved after KY police arrested Cincinnati journalists for covering an ICE protest. He is concerned & says he never wants to see press arrested. Video only on @WCPO @WEWS @OhioCapJournal wcpo.com/news/local-new…
Feels notable that Madeline Fening isn't charged with 1st Degree Rioting. Many others are, but she isn't. Seems to be some admission that her role on the scene was different than others.
Citybeat reporter Madeline Fening has been booked into the Kenton County Detention Center with 5 charges.

It is very disturbing to see the police target the reporters covering this scene.

Urbanists and Ruralists have more in common than you realize.
Lionel Messi's run of five consecutive braces in MLS was ended emphatically by Cincinnati. Instead, he was outshone by Evander, Cincinnati's big money signing who now has 22 goal contributions for the season (15 goals, 7 assists) - moving level with Messi (16 goals, 6 assists).
