Why do I feel like Mamdani saying there shouldn’t be billionaires will get people more upset than saying millions of people should sacrifice their health for them.

If “current policy” becomes the norm in reconciliation, one (very) hypothetical example of how Democrats could wield it: Pass a $10 trillion Medicare For All bill for 1 yr at a $1T sticker price & extend it permanently the next year at a $0 cost. All without nuking the filibuster.

2.977 people died on 9/11. The daily quote for ICE is 3000. I think putting it in terms like that puts it into perspective. They want one 9/11 every day.

Whoa! Alligator Alcatraz is going to be complete by Tuesday and open for operation on Wednesday. Am I the only one wondering how Ron DeSantis got this together so fast? Floridians, make sure you remember this the next time a hurricane hits and you can’t get disaster relief in your state.

Alright everyone. Republicans are going to force a vote on their gender affirming care provision even though it violates Senate rules. They’ll need 60 votes to keep it in. Now is the time to make your voice heard and ask your Senators to stand on the side of health care freedom.

Mamdani on "globalize the intifada": "That's not language that I used. The language that I used and the language that I will continue to use to lead the city is that which speaks clearly to my intent, which is an intent grounded in a belief in universal human rights."

If Joe Biden mused about being on Mt. Rushmore, the New York Times would have cited it as mental decline, not done a flashy exploration of what it would take to do it and how it would look. And if Obama had, well I think we know how that would have gone.

Republican Senators voting for Trump's bill: Please explain to Vivi why it's okay to make cuts to the program that helps pay for her wheelchair, her therapists, and her aide. Just look her and millions of other kids in the eye and say that you think cutting their care is okay.

If massive ICE increases pass, rather than giving up in despair tactics need to turn to making the social consequences for working for them so harsh that it's unappealing at any price. Already happening in cities around the country. It happened to plenty of cops that quit since 2020. It can be done

Mamdani: "I've already had to start get used to the fact that the president will talk about how I look, how I sound, where I'm from, ultimately bc he wants to distract from what I'm fighting for. I'm fighting for the the very working people he ran a campaign to empower that he has since betrayed."
