Chuck Daly @ChuckDaly

Always a great time when I’m spending it with @nysut! Thank you to everyone who came out in Mt Kisco last night. As a graduate of Hudson Valley public schools, I vow to be a champion for our public education system. All of our kids deserve a world-class education. As your member of Congress, I’ll fight to ensure our incredible teachers and students have the resources they need.

Hey @ADL who used the term recently? Anyone notable?

The term “Shylock” is rooted in a longstanding antisemitic stereotype. Regardless of intent, its use can reinforce harmful tropes about Jews and normalize language that has long been used to target the Jewish community.

The ADL refusing to name Trump here speaks for itself. Just a deeply unserious organization that has drifted far away from its stated mission, and one that has lost all credibility.

“we will pay any price….to assure the success and survival of liberty.” Is this still true? Do we prize liberty or do we prize power and purse? No more clear test than the choice between Ukraine and Russia. Abandon Ukraine and we abandon liberty. Eventually even our own.

It is a basic principle of American democracy that the government can’t selectively target individuals simply because of their political beliefs or what they say. But that’s exactly what the Trump Administration is doing to Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota. To understand why this is so appalling, it’s important to know the facts. Congresswoman Omar came to this country with her father when she was 12 years old. Five years later, her father became a naturalized citizen. If Ilhan had been 18 at the time, she would have had to apply for citizenship separately. But because she was 17, she became a naturalized citizen automatically. Congresswoman Omar went on to graduate from college, work as a community organizer, become the first Somali-American legislator elected to public office in the U.S., and win a seat in Congress. There, she has been one of the Trump Administration’s fiercest critics, which has led the president to repeatedly single her out as someone who he believes does not belong in this country. Now the Administration is actively trying to deport Congresswoman Omar, seemingly based solely on the unsubstantiated theory that she was actually 18 when her father was naturalized, and therefore is not a citizen. Federal agents have raided her home, confiscated personal records, and seized her phone — all to try and uncover a nonexistent smoking gun from 20 years ago that will somehow make their case. Think about that. The full weight of the federal government is being brought down on a law-abiding elected official because she has dared to criticize the president. And it’s not the first time this has happened. Under President Trump, the Justice Department has repeatedly gone after those he considers his political enemies — from the Attorney General of New York, to the former head of the FBI, to members of the Federal Reserve. In those cases, the prosecutions either stalled or were dismissed for having no basis in law, and the same is likely to happen in this case. But not before Congresswoman Omar’s life has been turned upside down, her legal bills have piled up, and she’s been forced to spend time fighting unsubstantiated charges instead of serving the people of Minnesota. The fact that any president, or any administration, is willing to engage in such transparent efforts to intimidate someone should outrage all Americans, regardless of how they feel about Congresswoman Omar’s political views. Because if this becomes the new normal, there’s no reason to believe it will stop with her — or that future presidents, in either party, won’t do the same.

@tylermilliken_ '07 postseason never gets enough love, but that was an all-timer

Truly disgusting what the Republican Party and parts of our media have normalized on this country. Just open naked racism and bigotry and mockery of minorities. Can you imagine a Muhammad or Abdullah in the schoolground getting bullied by kids who heard the president do it first?

Trump on El-Sayed: I’m the president. I can call you whatever the hell I want Muhammad. His name is actually Abdullahalalalala baa ba ba Muhammad El-Sayed. So his middle name is Muhammad. I was right.. almost.

Heidi Levine, an American photographer for the Washington Post, was beaten by Israeli settlers in the West Bank today while covering an olive harvest by Palestinians. She’s now in a Ramallah hospital. This happens every day on the West Bank. Every single day. Palestinians attacked, journalists attacked, Israeli & foreign observers attacked. When is the IDF going to start taking this seriously? And where is the US embassy & Trump administration?

Deep and sincere prayers for Pope Leo. May he be strengthened and his health restored🙏

@DickFillmoreESQ @realDonaldTrump Not well, but only because Trump became president and has been able to use his power and wealth to evade justice. He's in the Epstein files 30,000 times. Trump and Epstein raped teenagers and young women together. pbs.org/newshour/show/…

@BostonGlobe What a hollow puff piece. No mention of statutory rape from when he cheated on his wife with a teenager? And the most casual reference to his friend Donald Trump, who also raped teenagers. Just a couple of guys being guys, I guess!

Trump’s ex-chief of staff John Kelly said this to me, six years ago: “I don't know how he’s not in an institution somewhere, whether it’s jail or a nuthouse. He’s a seriously sick guy. I never heard him saying anything that wasn’t a lie.” Trump has only gotten worse since.

More than five million people have lost their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits since President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill passed last year. to.pbs.org/47Sb4rd

so grateful that I got to be at Fenway for this one! greatest game I'll ever see. 🙏

13 years ago, David Ortiz completely flipped the ALCS with one swing of the bat off Joaquin Benoit. Down 5-1 in the 8th and on the verge of going down 0-2 to the Tigers… Ortiz had other plans. Torii Hunter then flipped over the bullpens and Steve Horgan became a Boston legend.

In 2018, my friend Ady Barkan — the bravest person I’ve ever known — was traveling across the U.S. Despite his rapidly advancing ALS, he was fighting so fiercely for healthcare for every American. On that trip, he introduced me to @AbdulElSayed, who was running for governor of Michigan. He told me that Abdul would fight for Medicare for All just as fiercely as he would. Now, Ady was a prankster, and sometimes he tricked me, it’s true — but never about something like this.

I don’t think you have a dog in this fight but if you did you would have shot it.
