Meet #DavidMorales - #ProvidenceRI Voters Elect #DemocraticSocialist Mayor, Approve #IsraelDivestment

November 11, 2026

"Voters in Providence, Rhode Island, approved a ballot measure last week that could result in the city divesting from #Israel. The successful #grassroots campaign makes Providence the first U.S. city to pass a binding divestment measure through a popular vote. The measure instructs the city to divest from countries and companies implicated in ' #EthnicCleansing, #apartheid, illegal military occupation, or #genocide. ' The language does not mention Israel by name. We speak with one of the key backers of the divestment measure, Mayor-elect David Morales, a 28-year-old democratic socialist who made history on election night as the #YoungestMayor ever elected in Providence.

" 'What we saw was our neighbors coming out in the thousands to demonstrate that we are ready for change,' Morales says, promising to enact his affordability-focused platform. 'It’s the responsibility of local government to take action. And for that reason, we are seeing a rise in democratic socialism and the representation of democratic socialists all across the country.' "

There was a time that Russell Brand was a darling of the political Left. He appeared on Democracy Now, Citizen Radio and other progressive shows.

I didn't like him even then.

He was glib and shallow. He sounded like he had speed-read Howard Zinn and was utterly delighted with his own wordplay.

Even before his crimes came out, his shift to the anti-vaxxer Right was not a surprise. It was always a performance for attention.
