Gavin Newsom is so awful that I can't believe he's not running for mayor of New York.

This by itself is entirely disqualifying. Do not rank Cuomo on your ballot in the Democratic mayoral primary, friends. Leave him completely off - vote for five other candidates instead.

i really hope none of the folks who made the anti-tesla stickers and fliers do something with this and post it all around nyc

A shorter version of my thread: for chrissakes can we pay attention to what fascism does instead of what it says? No, Trump isn’t trying stupidly and failing to revive U.S. industry. He’s trying quite effectively to burn it down so he can rule the ashes. Seriously. That’s the plan.

Any journalist or media exec attends has chosen their side.

Excellent work by new NYT headline writer Werner Herzog

@schumer.senate.gov A Book Tour? I hope you are confronted with furious constituents throughout your self-promotion. Maybe then you'll realize you didn't read the room - at all.

I just called my cowardly and now nationally loathed Senator to object to this, easily the 50th time I've called his office since Jan. 20, & his voicemail is "not available at this time." I admit it, I feel hopeless today. They're going to rip away every institution that matters to us, and for what?

Sen Schumer will be joining me tonight in 20 minutes on @allinwithchris.bsky.social

This is probably an unpopular opinion but I don’t think AOC should primary Schumer. That would mean he serves out the remainder of his term. Instead she should throw him off the top of the Fresh Kills Mall 300-style, with or without screaming “this…is…New York!!!” and immediately take his job

Holler!

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.
