the reaction to Mamdani's campaign is clear proof that centrism is a reactionary ideology, and has nothing to do with a pragmatic desire to win.

Australia's ABC News explains what the Israeli government won't allow the news organization to report on from within Israel. www.instagram.com/reel/DLOxTZ9...

The one silver lining of the Roberts Court is that it will destroy the credibility of the Supreme Court to such an extent that liberals can no longer believe that it will be our salvation.

it's only a systemic failure when the system does something it was not systematically designed to do

A federal officer cannot be “doxxed.” The public has a right to know who is operating in our government, especially if they have the power to imprison someone.

I have a working theory that the dehumanizing of the homeless in cities is a gateway drug which helps leads to ICE sweeps, police shooting rubber bullets into crowds, etc. once the homeless are a menace who need to be destroyed, not people squeezed out by housing costs, something is lost, morally.

Guess Schumer voting to fund him didn’t really rein Trump in, eh?

spent my afternoon making a short little web game for New Yorkers called "Don't Rank Cuomo"... it has 10 levels. it's very realistic and challenging. can YOU don't rank Cuomo? play in browser (free): radiatoryang.itch.io/cuomo

The Democratic Party using racist smears against Mamdani, digitally altering his image, and accepting Trumpworld money to elect a right wing sex pest like Cuomo is a clear message from the Old Guard Dems: "We are fundamentally opposed to progress and we think our voters, who we despise, are stupid."

Epstein associate endorsements for NYC Mayor: Cuomo: 3 Zohran: 0

These people are mindlessly voting on aesthetics to make their lives worse, and centrist Dem messaging is making it worse. "Republicans are right about immigrants and trans athletes" validates their mistaken beliefs; instead, say "Republicans are the ones making your lives worse through X, Y, Z."

A message from Bernie as we head into the final weekend before the election.

NYC Council Speaker Adrienne Adams just released a statement telling her supporters NOT to rank Cuomo and to rank the full WFP slate (Mamdani, Lander, Myrie)

fascinating how trans rights went from a no brainer issue to this supposedly rhetorically impossible boutique issue that we must all collectively decide is a bridge too far in less than a decade. a handful people made a transparent choice to go after us out in the open. we ain't going away, folks.
