Sharing an excellent op-ed in today’s #Philadelphia #Inquirer, about #Pennsylvania law enforcement’s inability to — unbelievably — figure out how charge the arsonist who tried to burn down the PA governor’s residence with #JoshShapiro and his family inside ON #PASSOVER.

I tried to find a way to give a gift link to the article, but I guess my Inquirer subscription doesn’t support them.
Ps— The Inquirer is a great paper!

I attended #NewJersey Senator #AndyKim’s “Stop the Cuts” town hall in South Jersey on Tuesday. It was a positive and informative experience, with nearly 400 people in attendance on a Tuesday night. The hub even joined me! Here’s a good overview of the night from the #Philadelphia #Inquirer. Gift link.

Update: Police arrested the MFer who tried to burn down the PA governor’s residence with #JoshShapiro and his family asleep inside.
My previous #Philadelphia #Inquirer gift link has the update, incl this passage:
“On Saturday evening, the first night of #Passover, Shapiro posted a photo of his family’s Seder dinner at the governor’s residence.
“The fire was set in the same room where the dinner was held.”

Holy shit: Someone tried to burn down the #Pennsylvaia governor’s residence overnight while #JoshShapiro and his family were asleep. Shapiro and his family, who are #Jewish, had just celebrated #Passover there.

While (most) corporate media outlets are ignoring or downplaying the #HandsOff rallies, indie and nonprofits are not! For example, the #Philadelphia #Inquirer covered #HandsOffPhilly and other Delaware Valley protests. Support your #localnews that is likewise covering these events.

Y’all, here is an important addendum to Booker’s by-the-numbers press release —a cogent opinion piece by the #Inquirer’s #WillBunch that ties it all together. Must-read, gift link via my Inky sub.
A new #WillBunch piece in the #Inquirer puts into eloquent prose why those numbers cited in #CoryBooker’s press release matter and how it will motivate voters and electeds alike. Must-read via this gift link courtesy of my Inky sub. #Democracy #GoodTrouble #USpol

Here are #localnews indie/nonprofit media coverage of Booker’s filibuster that I sub to!
First up, 1 of 2 articles in my hometown #Philadelphia #Inquirer. (Gift link!) An op-ed by the Inky Editorial Board:
“Over the course of 25 hours and 5 minutes, Cory Booker points the way to oppose Trump’s abuses of power”

Apparently the Philadelphia Inquirer is laying off journalists who were working on DEI?
The article also mentions layoffs due to a return to office mandate, which I would consider ableist, among other issues.
Does anyone know more, or know who to look to for commentary? I'm not sure Axios is the best source.
One obvious alternative is the union blog:
Last thing — 47 is about giving the University of Pennsylvania is about to get the Columbia treatment — but over allowing Lia Thomas, who is #trans, to swim.
Thomas graduated from Penn three YEARS ago.

Philly Inquirer speaks truth to power: "Don’t expect any serious efforts from an unserious man. We’ve seen this show before. Get ready for another four years of chaos, corruption, and incompetence."

@StillIRise1963 I just read this in the paper edition of the #Philadelphia #Inquirer*. Powerful words, frightening times.
*Yes, I get a physical newspaper, every day for decades. I like reading offline and I cut out things. In fact, my 88yo mom still gets the paper and she cuts out articles too. The best part is when we cut out the same piece to share with one another — this has happened more than once, lol.
