Baldwin: I remember my cross-examination of Secretary Kennedy from HHS, and he said, “We will have radical transparency.” But what they’ve actually had is radical opaqueness. They never answer a letter. They never answer a question. It’s one of the ways that democracy begins to degrade—

"Maybe people don’t actually care about the price of rent—they just want a mayor who seems cool and energetic and that’s the real lesson going forward for the party. We’ll see, I guess."

Dem leaders would rather destroy their own party than support Mamdani and AOC. For what? The billionaire class and a genocidal Israeli regime that is increasingly loathed by young people around the world. They will unleash everything to undermine Mamdani as predicted. Sickening.

Birthright citizenship is a Constitutional RIGHT. Any attack on it is an attack on us all. This is an attempt by far-right justices to attack immigrant communities and remove protections from any American who questions Trump. Your rights are nonnegotiable. We can’t compromise on that basic fact.

I think Zohran Mamdani demonstrated pretty handily that he’ll protect Jewish New Yorkers when the seniormost Jewish elected official in the city was detained by jackbooted thugs and he was on the scene demanding his release in minutes

Thomas Jefferson must be rolling in his grave. He founded American liberty and the institution that President Trump is now strong arming as if he's a modern day king. Trump is forcing a state institution to bend the knee to the President. This is the opposite of liberty.

1/ If Justice Barrett thinks we need to go back to what the Founding Fathers intended, I’ve got news for her. Their biggest concern was avoiding tyranny. So they created 3 branches of gov’t & divvied up the power the people (that’s us) were allowing the gov’t to use to create order for all of us.

Do they really think they can scare us with the word “socialist” when they are literally sending out men in masks with no warrants and no badges to disappear people off American streets? I know what I’m scared of, and it’s not a socialist.

When Eric Adams, a corrupt dirtbag centrist cop, won the primary four years ago, mainstream white media was quick to anoint him as "the future" of the Democratic party. Nate Silver said he's be the party's presidential nominee. Mamdani wins and it's like "oh, shit, well, there's still the general."

Two years ago I interviewed a 31-year-old NY state assemblymember about a 7-year-old girl killed by an SUV driver in his district. I hung up the phone, astonished that I'd talked to a legislator who so thoughtfully articulated what actually needs to change on our streets. He'll make a great mayor

I want to make this 100% clear: After the last 3 elections in which Dems demanded that progressive voters support establishment candidates for the greater good, a refusal by the establishment to support Mamdani when it’s the progressives who earned the win, will permanently cleave the party.

News Analysis: Over the past two decades, the U.S. has used sanctions, sabotage, cyberattacks and negotiations to try to slow Iran’s long march to a nuclear weapon. In Iran, President Trump unleashed a show of military might that each of his last four predecessors had deliberately avoided.

By disregarding his own intelligence advisors that Iran was not about to have nuclear weapons, Donald Trump has, without any justification whatsoever, provoked Iran to retaliate against American troops in the Middle East and American civilians at home. He is a irresponsible, simpleminded idiot.
