Remember the high schoolers protesting #ICE in #Quakertown last where the plainclothes police chief put a freshman girl in a chokehold and she and five other teens were arrested? Well they are STILL being detained. Insanity. #Philadelphia #Inquirer article update, gifted with my sub.

@dtm There are a few possible models. One is that of the #Philadelphia #Inquirer, which is now run by the nonprofit Lenfest Institute for #Journalism (thanks Gerry Lenfest). Nothing is perfect, but at least the Inky won't be poached by a hedge fund.

@MaryAustinBooks I would say unbelievable, but that ship sailed in 2024 when I cancelled my digital sub. I will stick with my hometown #Philly #Inquirer -- run by the nonprofit Lenfest Center for Journalism.

I have both a paper and digital sub to the Inky, and I was considering going all digital bc it's hella expensive. But shit takes like this from WaPo is making me reconsider for now.

Failure to grasp antisemitism is crippling Pennsylvania’s response to the world’s oldest hate

Every state in the U.S. must adopt the same, universal definition of antisemitism. Until we do, authorities and courts will not be able to hold perpetrators accountable.

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.”
