this is the level of funding where all the possibilities for American politics that have been described as hyperbolic over the past decades - the comparisons to Nazi Germany and other nightmares of the 20th century - become logistically possible and politically likely

The Levi-Strauss heir demands things that Zohran has repeatedly — indeed eloquently — done and promised. He has no intention of supporting Zohran, only in raising the cost of that dangled support higher. Only in exploiting Islamophobia as a means to protect his class interests.

So did we just see Ross Douthat interview the Antichrist? Was Ross in the presence of the Antichrist for a friendly interview?

There is no “but Hamas”—no history, ideology, or nuance that can justify the gleeful, gamified slaughter of starving children. No nation on earth has “the right” to exist. But human beings have the right to live in safety.

"Where I was stationed, between one and five people were killed every day. They're treated like a hostile force – no crowd-control measures, no tear gas – just live fire with everything imaginable: heavy machine guns, grenade launchers, mortars. ... Our form of communication is gunfire."

Honored to be quoted in this excellent @arnorosenfeld.bsky.social piece, besides heroes of our people like @egsophie.bsky.social & @simonerzim.bsky.social and also beside the psychotic Rabbi Schneider, who chose to come out the gate sounding anti-democratic notes!

I fucking love that Bill Ackman is going to fund yet another loathsome, corrupt clown whom every normal person in New York badly wants to see eat shit. Socialists don’t just get to bump off Andrew Cuomo, we get to end the dimwitted pathologically lying crooked cop, too?

I asked India Walton what Zohran Mamdani should be thinking about right now, as an upstart DSA-backed mayoral candidate who just won a primary election against the assembled forces of the ultrawealthy and his own party's establishment. She had some advice: hellgatenyc.com/india-walton...

If he wins in November, he's going to need many competent progressive people who wouldn't touch city government with a ten foot poll to join city government. A long bench is needed. that's a lesson from Chicago.

Genuinely wept at this by @attackerman.bsky.social. Yes, you have to squint to see even the hint of a dawn, but you have to appreciate the wins when they come. Well done, NYC.

this piece absolutely slaps. there are so many parts that I could clip to amplify, but this one made me want to run through the damn wall at 1:20am if a socialist can win power in the world’s biggest city, what’s stopping the rest of us?

Socialism, tonight, defeated barbarism. After the two-decade midnight of 9/11, dawn is breaking.

Great reporting as always from Nick: "Beyond the White House, at least four Trump appointees at DHS, the Cabinet department that houses ICE, have owned Palantir stock."

Can't be a ceasefire without making Israel stop its Gaza genocide. For 20 months, this has always been the only way to stop the regional war. Otherwise the Palestinians are slaughtered and the conditions for the regional war remain. There needs to be a regional peace conference. More for more.
