Twenty years ago the Republican party stood for huge tax cuts for the rich and wars of choice in the middle east, but then Donald Trump totally remade the party and realigned American poltiics, and now the Republica party stands for...huge tax cuts for the rich and wars of choice in the middle east.

One of the most innovative uses of American Rescue Plan Act funds was Charleston, West Virginia's decision to open a city-run grocery store in a food desert. It was a great idea. I referenced it here: www.epi.org/blog/some-st...

If New Yorkers are wondering who will fight back against Federal overreach, we have visible evidence today that Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander are the candidates that you should rank 1 or 2 Lander literally resisted federal overreach and Mamdani showed up immediately to have his back Fuck Cuomo

The food delivery platform DoorDash is the sole reported contributor to a political committee promoting City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams for mayor — even as the ads tell voters only that they are funded by a major municipal workers union.

ICE is driving through the inner city now in military tanks to kidnap children off the streets and @governor.ca.gov thinks his lawsuit is enough

The answer is in ICE's selection of targets: * Democratic politicians in public * Immigrants attending court hearings, at work, or at schools None of those people will be armed. On the flipside, ICE is scrupulously avoiding raids on cartel affiliates, drug dealing sites, etc. They might be armed.

Now that we’ve seen the full Senate text, we can say for certain: either the House or the Senate version would be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history. Each have the largest Medicaid and largest SNAP cuts ever. And each give huge tax cuts to the rich.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

congrats on catching the fuckass assassin However, this does prove that police CAN apprehend a highly dangerous person without filling them full of bullet holes. Curious.

Proud to cross-endorse with Michael Blake and to be ranked #2 on his ballot. We can turn the page on Andrew Cuomo's politics of disgrace with unity.

This isn't all of the story, but a surprisingly big part of the "fear" of Mamdani isn't actually that he'll institute full communism, it's that people's friends-and-influence groups will be demoted from their positions of authority

if nothing else I think this is an eye-opening experience for many New Yorkers about who in the media is honest and who are dishonest liars intent on manipulating public opinion to get their preferred outcome.

Cuomo’s car parked (illegally) outside union HQ. I asked a cop nearby if it was parked illegally. He said “yes.” Why? “Because it got two tickets already”

“The left” engages in some acts of violence. Sure. But America’s culture of violence is driven by the right. No Democratic presidential candidate would welcome the support of violent extremist groups. Trump has. Repeatedly. https://trib.al/3x5fK7z

The Atlantic piece on Zohran Mamdani and Andrew Cuomo is full of holes. Mamdani's proposals are picked apart and labeled unrealistic while Cuomo's supposed goals aren't even elaborated on. Cuomo is "an asshole, but he's our asshole"—the New Yorkers who he has sexually harassed might think otherwise

It's pretty telling that the second part of the "Mamdani is a danger to Jewish new yorkers" pitch is always "so vote for sexual harasser shitbag Italian Catholic Andrew Cuomo" and not "so vote for Jewish Progressive Brad Lander"

Watching the NYC mayoral debate from last night this morning and ... in addition to all the other major problems with him, it is obvious Cuomo doesn't even LIKE New York City.

And remember, taxpayers are the ones who pay the settlements in these lawsuits, which ran over $200,000,000 for the NYPD just in the last year. I wonder if the costs came out of their own budget or retirement funds they might be a little more circumspect.

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

It's a truly jarring split screen that Kristi Noem's goons attacking Sen Padilla happened at almost the exact same time as 16 Dem senators crossed lines to vote with the GOP to invoke cloture on the crypto bill, forfeiting any leverage. Dems need to act like an opposition.

No matter what a peaceful protestor may intend, it’s police who decide when to use violence and whom to use it against—and nothing we saw this weekend indicates their violence was confined to those who were not “peaceful.” https://trib.al/TLL9x8a

Insane scenes in Downtown Los Angeles as the cops open fire indiscriminately on people milling about. The cops shattered a business’s windows while firing on a live-streaming journalist. Keep this in mind when people talk about the protesters causing property destruction. 🎥 : AXN News on YouTube
