Two examples, Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez is concerned about jobs. So why did she chase off Amazon, a company that would have brought in thousands of jobs that 1) did not require a college degree 2) would help fund a college education 3) paid above minimum wage and 4) paid benefits to people working over 20 hours a week.
Second, Randi Weingarten advocated for remote education 1) long after it we knew if was not needed for the safety of children 2) long after we knew if caused great harm to kids, particularly kids of color. If racism is defined by disparate outcomes that harm people of color and people advocating disparate outcomes like this are racists, then how is Ms. Weingarten not a racist. That may be a bit strong, but you get the point.
Bari, this was beneath you. It would have been better not to talk to the Mayor.
Sometimes the news is bad. But it's still news, and it's important. I thought this was an instructive interview. I voted for Adams because I had high hopes for him, especially after de Blasio. Now I know for sure that he's a vapid, self-aggrandizing blowhard. The interview wasn't beneath Bari, Adams was beneath the interview. We shouldn't blame the messenger. It's her job to get the story. It was a public service.
