AOC Threatens to Put Moderate Dems on a Primary ‘List’ If They Vote With GOP

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) threatened her moderate colleagues during a Thursday Democratic caucus meeting, telling the lawmakers she plans to provide progressive activists searching for primary targets with a list of Democrats who work across the aisle.Speaker Nancy Pelosi began the meeting by chastising the two dozen moderates who voted on Tuesday in favor of a Republican amendment to a gun control bill that requires gun retailers to report illegal immigrants who attempt to buy a gun.“We are either a team or we’re not, and we have to make that decision,” Pelosi said, two people who were present told the Washington Post.Ocasio-Cortez, who routinely wields her massive social media following to pressure her establishment colleagues into supporting her agenda, sought to add force to Pelosi's call for unity by threatening to expose to the ire of progressive activists any Democrats willing to compromise with Republicans.Corbin Trent, a spokesman for Ocasio-Cortez, told the Post that any Democrats who cooperate with Republicans “are putting themselves on a list.”“She said that when activists ask her why she had to vote for a gun safety bill that also further empowers an agency that forcibly injects kids with psychotropic drugs, they’re going to want a list of names and she’s going to give it to them,” Trent said, referring to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.The rift between the establishment and the younger, more progressive wing of the party was brought into sharp relief this week moments before the House passed legislation that would require a federal criminal background check for all gun purchases, including private transactions. While the bill's passage represented a significant victory for the Democratic majority, the inclusion of a provision that will facilitate deportations at the hands of ICE agents incensed progressives, many of whom have called for the agency to be abolished.

Ivanka Trump occupies a different reality from most working women

Responding to a question about Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s proposed Green New Deal and its call for a federal job guarantee, Ivanka Trump this week offered sage wisdom: “I’ve spent a lot of time traveling around this country over the last four years,” she said. In light of this recent controversy, it’s worth revisiting Ivanka Trump’s views on work through the lens of her now defunct, eponymous website dedicated to building her personal lifestyle brand – think Goop for the recently lobotomized, with fewer jade eggs and a hint of Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In. Judging by the kinds of women highlighted on her site, the working women she has in mind mostly are CEOs for jewelry and wellness companies, including her fellow bootstrapping go-getter Lauren Bush Lauren, niece of George W Bush.

Indian pilot captured in Pakistan becomes face of escalating conflict

An Indian pilot shot down over Pakistan and paraded by his captors has become a hero in his own country, a trump card for Islamabad and perhaps the key to bringing the arch-rivals back from the brink. Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman was in a MiG jet that India said was shot down on Wednesday as he chased Pakistan warplanes over the rivals' disputed Kashmir border. Footage of him being beaten and interrogated has since gone viral in India and Pakistan.

N.J.'s Record High Property Tax Bills Show a Glint of Good News

For the first time in at least a decade, one-year growth fell below 1 percent, according to a Bloomberg analysis of state Department of Community Affairs data. Trump’s $10,000 limit on residents’ deductions on their federal tax returns is being felt widely in the Garden State. It may also make it harder for New Jersey to balance its budget this year because income-tax revenue has fallen short of expectations after some people shifted income into 2017 before the tax overhaul took effect.

Swiss may let 5,000 people use marijuana legally for studies

Nigeria's opposition to launch legal challenge after Buhari wins second term

Nigeria’s opposition leader is to mount a legal challenge after President Muhammadu Buhari secured a second term in an election marked both by apathy and violence that claimed hundreds of lives. The electoral commission officially declared Mr Buhari the victor of Saturday’s poll, saying he had won 56 percent of the vote, against 41 percent secured by his main challenger, Atiku Abubakar. But Mr Abubakar insisted he had been cheated of the chance to lead Africa’s most populous state after a conspiracy between the commission and the president’s ruling party. “It is clear that there were manifest and premeditated malpractices in many states which negate the results announced,” Mr Abubakar, a former vice president, said as he announced that he would file a legal petition to overturn the vote. Mr Buhari, a former military dictator who returned to office as a civilian in 2015, insisted that the election was “free and fair”, claiming the vote was “another milestone in Nigeria’s democratic development.” Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari walks to the lectern to address the crowd gathered at an electoral commission ceremony in Abuja Credit: AP Observers have so far raised no objection to the conduct of the vote, although analysts say there were troubling aspects to it.  Most controversially, the president suspended the country’s chief justice last month after accusing him of improperly declaring his assets. In so doing, he removed an independently minded figure who would have presided over the hearing of Mr Abubakar’s case. As a result, the petition is thought unlikely to succeed. The suspicion of some Nigerians was also raised after the electoral commission delayed the vote by a week just hours before polling was due to start.  Because many voters who had travelled to their rural homes to cast their ballots were forced to return to work, turnout was barely more than a third. Many Nigerians, particularly in the predominantly Christian south, were little enthused by either candidate, both of whom are Muslim northerners. Despite the apathy, at least 327 people have been killed since campaigning began in October, an independent group that monitors violence in Nigeria said. Most died in attacks by Islamist jihadists or in fighting between gangs and the security forces close to polling stations. More than 60 have died since Saturday. Illustrating the challenges facing the president in a country struggling to emerge from recession and plagued by violence, a non-Islamist insurgent group in an oil region in the south has said it would resume its rebellion after a two-year lull should Mr Buhari win. The president will face less opposition in parliament, however, after his most formidable opponent, Bukola Saraki, the head of the senate, lost his seat.

Boeing lands huge British Airways order, after Airbus ends A380

British Airways announced a multi-billion dollar order for up to 42 Boeing 777 fuel-efficient passenger jets on Thursday, just two weeks after Airbus said it would no longer make its A380 superjumbo. Separately, UK engineering group Rolls-Royce said it dived into a net loss last year as its Trent jet engines were hit by costly repairs -- as well as the decision by Boeing's European rival Airbus to pull the plug on the A380. IAG on Thursday said the 777s would replace BA's Boeing 747s, which were seen as a competitor to the A380.

Pakistan will free downed pilot to ease India stand off, Imran Khan pledges

Pakistan will today (FRI) release an Indian airman shot down over Kashmir in what Imran Khan said was a peace gesture to ease tensions in an escalating military crisis with India. The promise to release Wg Cdr Abhinanda Varthaman followed two days of air strikes and clashes which had raised fears the nuclear-armed neighbours were on the brink of war. India on Thursday said it welcomed the return of its officer, but said its troops would remain on high alert as the adversaries traded fire across their disputed frontier in Kashmir. "We have captured a pilot of India. As a gesture of peace we are going to release him to India tomorrow," Mr Khan told the country's parliament. “But this de-escalation effort should not be considered as weakness." India had demanded the immediate safe return of Wg Cdr Varthaman after his MiG-21 was shot down, and protested Pakistan's release of video showing his captivity. India called for the immediate and safe return of Wg Cdr Abhinandan Varthaman Donald Trump said America had been trying to get the two sides to climb down from their confrontation. "I think hopefully that's going to be coming to an end," the US president said in Hanoi where he was holding talks with Kim Jong un. The regional rivals have been brought to their most severe confrontation in nearly two decades after a suicide bombing in Indian-controlled Kashmir killed at least 40 police of February 14. India blames the Pakistan-based militant group Jaish-e-Mohammad and has demanded that Islamabad take action. India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged his countrymen on Thursday to “unite, fight, live, work and win as one” against an unnamed enemy “seeking to destabilise India”. “In the face of their objective [to destabilise], every Indian should stand like a wall against them” he said while talking to more than 10 million of his Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata (BJP) supporters via a mass video conference. Pulwama suicide attack - Map “We have to show the enemy that this nation will neither stop, nor will its development stop” he said, but without naming Pakistan. Jet fighters from both sides clashed on Wednesday. Pakistan said it had shot down two Indian jets, with one landing inside its territory. India said only one of its jets was missing and it had in turn shot down a Pakistani F-16. That was denied by Pakistan. The son of a decorated fighter pilot, 36-year old Wg Cdr Varthaman was hailed in India as a hero. The captured pilot’s father, a former air marshal, was a consultant for a film two years ago about an Indian Air Force pilot whose combat aircraft is downed in Pakistan. The senior retired officer had said he hoped his son “does not get tortured and comes home safe and sound in body and mind”. Those living close to the disputed line of control dividing Kashmir continued to endure shelling. Habibullah Khan, a 55-year-old in the town of Mendhar just inside Indian territory, said on Thursday shells had landed in wheat fields near his home. Schools and markets had closed as residents were driven indoors. “Everything is in the hands of God. None dies without the will of the Almighty. But at the same time, we are in the line of fire. We are lucky that shells didn’t land in our house and instead fell in the fields. But I don’t know how long will I and my family survive,” he told the Telegraph. Haji Munawar Hussain, a resident of Mankote, said Indian and Pakistani troops traded heavy mortar and gunfire with shells landing in a market and near houses as well. “it is a terrible situation here, the 65-year-old said. “The shells are falling everywhere, in the ravines, in the fields and outside the houses. We are terribly scared.”  With additional reporting by Ishfaq Naseem in Srinagar

Dr. Bronner's is the only good brand on Twitter

Whether it's Lil Debbie shilling out relationship advice or Sunny D igniting a conversation about depression, contemporary brand Twitter can be a depressing and dark place. Nothing feels more cynical than when a brand appropriates the standardized millennial voice -- ironic, detached, dejected -- and uses it to hock their emulsified meat products and drinkable corn syrups.
