"Zohran Mamdani is not an antisemite or a Communist, as quite a few people – even those in public office who should know better – are trying to brand him." Really strong new column from @cityandstateny.bsky.social publisher Tom Allon: www.cityandstateny.com/opinion/2025...

Here's a sentence that I wish didn't exist: "Kris Jenner, boyfriend Corey Gamble have tense exchange over water taxi after Bezos wedding: lip reader" (New York Post)

Just realized I have something in common with Zohran Mamdani: I never said (or support the idea) “globalize the intifada.”

Tech Guy: I have attained immortality! Me: Wow, you figured out how to stop aging? Tech Guy: No, I trained an AI on my emails to create a perfect copy of my personality. Then I uploaded it into a robot dog with M3GAN’s face. It will live forever Robot: As a businessman I often schedule meetings

Zohran Mamdani is not even a little bit scary. Nothing about that guy radiates a threat. He probably takes spiders out in a cup.

Meredith has always been a G, but it's still exceptionally weird and very refreshing hearing from a tech exec who can see through all of this AI bullshit for what it is at its foundation: a backdoor surveillance tool.

I love how the right is trying to scare us by saying the United States is turning into one of those European countries with great mass transit and free healthcare.

On Friday night, we walked the length of Manhattan, from Inwood Hill to Battery Park. New Yorkers deserve a Mayor they can see, hear, even yell at. The city is in the streets.

THIS JUST HAPPENED: Brad Lander walked through the fire, got burned, and came back with a fucking gasoline can. ICE arrested him — now he’s escorting migrants right past them, again. Most politicians wouldn’t show up. He showed out.

just saw a group of masked men stuffing masked ICE agents into an unmarked car, who were saying "we're ICE we're ICE!" but the abductors shouted to the crowd "no we're ICE!" no one knew who was ICE, so no one in the crowd said anything.

NEW: Pope Leo’s newly appointed Bishop, Michael Pham, outside the court in San Diego: “We need to speak up for the voiceless in our society - and we will.” The video then shows masked ICE agents leaving without snatching anyone today. More of this resistance nationwide! 👏 (🎥 PSL San Diego)

Didn’t some worthless shitbird on Fox drool over the prospect of sending ICE to Dodger Stadium?

submitted 10 days ago • 60 comments

You can see the ICE agents in their minivans then the LAPD cars in the back appearing to block the Dodger Stadium parking lot entrance. When I asked an LAPD officer if they are blocking ICE from entering the parking lot she said “put it this way. The Dodgers don’t want them coming in.”

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant. This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.
