When I entered the show, there were no particular expectations, because there were a lot of big creators participating along with me. But when the show actually started, I realized that there was no partiality there. What you sow, you will reap, and you will get returns in proportion to your efforts. It was heartening to see that they were not promoting creators that only had a greater following, and everything was based on merit. After the first day, I was determined to do my best and win. I had no such expectations when I entered the show.

“In Michigan’s 13th we proudly speak truth to power, even in the face of a racist-in-chief,” Tlaib said on the House floor. “Those who incited an attack on the people’s  house do not get to talk about healing and unity. They have torn this country apart. They have stoked the fire and then handed the gasoline to Donald Trump. Dr. King once said: ‘True peace is not the absence of tension. It is in the presence of justice.'” … [Read more...] about Rep. Rashida Tlaib Calls Trump The ‘Racist-In-Chief’ On House Floor

Cawthorn in a surprise upset beat out a candidate for North Carolina’s 11th District in the primary. But he said his victory was not a referendum on the president and continued to support Trump throughout the November election.

That thinking, said fire Lt. Dan Robertson, requires a strategy of “aggressive interior attack” — which some fire departments, like Oakland’s, emphasize more than others. It’s why he and about eight other firefighters swarmed into the artists collective on 31st Avenue near International Boulevard with hoses and breathing apparatuses, even as pieces of the building were coming down around them. … [Read more...] about Oakland firefighters didn’t assume burning Ghost Ship was vacant

The ongoing fallout of the Ghost Ship fire has put Schaaf on the spot. The mayor established herself from her first day in office as a stalwart for the arts, riding a fire-belching snail car around Lake Merritt and holding an inauguration party at the sprawling American Steel warehouse. She successfully pushed an ordinance requiring developers to set aside 1 percent of their construction budgets for public art, and spent the last year and a half amassing $1.7 million in philanthropic grants to create permanently affordable spaces for artists. … [Read more...] about As Oakland arts scene thrived in industrial spaces, city fell short on monitoring

Mr Hart gets particularly irate that they can’t answer, and starts choking on his food.

Vision helps him by phasing his hand into Mr Hart’s throat, removing the blockage. … [Read more...] about WandaVision episode 1 recap: Marvel on TV makes a great first impression
