I was there with my kids and was shocked. At least when he chanted no one chanted back. When I bought my tickets there was no mention of Macklemore (only Lukas Graham who was great). Brutal.
🛑Jewish and Israeli families bought tickets to see Ed Sheeran not to be ambushed by anti-Israel propaganda. Instead, rapper Macklemore walked onstage in a keffiyeh, shouted “Free Palestine,” accused Israel of “genocide,” and turned a mainstream concert into a political rally against the Jewish state. Parents were there with children. Fans came for music. They did not consent to being used as an audience for this. This is not “brave activism.” It is grotesque. And Ed Sheeran’s team owes its audience an explanation for allowing it to happen on his stage.

.@ChicagosMayor is allowing another hate speech rally on Michigan Ave. "We don't want a Jewish state" "we don't want two states" "resistance is justified." Do they have permits for their hate speech rally?

Replying to @FAANews
@FAANews you have to fix EWR. This situation cannot continue. Someone needs to be fired. Please do something.

If there was ever any doubt as to who bears responsibility for the COVID pandemic, Biden’s pardon of Fauci forever seals the deal. As Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee I will not rest until the entire truth of the coverup is exposed. Fauci’s pardon will only serve as an accelerant to pierce the veil of deception. Ignominious! Anthony Fauci will go down in history as the first government scientist to be preemptively pardoned for a crime.

Impossible not to have a negative experience flying @AirCanada. Made my wife check her carry on and then threatened to kick her off the plane. Many people had bigger bags subsequently. Inconsistent but consistently rude and lousy.

Had the displeasure of trying to get a meal at @MarcusBPNewark last night. Reservation meant nothing as the hostess system involved a sticky pad. Understaffed, staff there were apathetic. Oh and they had no food! @MarcusCooks, shameful to have your name attached! Horrible!

This is so sad but hilarious #aircanadasucks
If you don't laugh when the camera pans over to the flight board you're not a human

Why do I not appreciate the irony that the flight that I booked with a credit for horrible service is delayed more than 2 hours for no good reason whatsoever? #aircanadasucks #worstairline #ohcanada.

While things might be bad now, this is just indicative of how really horrible #Pearson and #aircanadasucks have always been.The real kick in the nuts is the flight from nyc->yyz is almost as much $ as nyc->lax cnn.com/travel/article/world…

.@TeamGB Olympian @guskenworthy shows athletes can speak up for human rights: “I think the IOC should take a stance against a lot of these atrocities & stand up for important issues, and by not granting those countries the right to host the Games…” Bravo bbc.com/sport/winter-olympic…

Sunlight is the best disinfectant. #Spotify should not give in to demands for censorship.

The CDC recommends you wake in the morning and you step outside and you take a deep breath and you get real high and you scream at the top of your lungs WHAT’S GOING ON
