NEWS: Gotham FC will face FC Monterrey Femenil in the Concacaf W Champions Cup on WED AUG 20th at Icahn Stadium on Randall's Island NYC. Attendance will be capped at 5,000 fans. #NWSL

Zohran Mamdani is likely to choose Brad Lander as his deputy mayor, unifying progressive populism with experienced governance. This should be the model that establishment Democrats adopt. From @ddayen.bsky.social: https://trib.al/c3eOFJN

I will be devastated if we lost Ella.

"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...

The current Democratic Party isn’t the way forward.

Every word of this is true. Senators are in their offices today. Please call

We should all be disgusted by the flood of anti-Muslim remarks spewed in the aftermath of Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the NYC mayoral primary — some blatant, others latent. Shame on the members of Congress who have engaged in such bigotry and anyone who doesn’t challenge it.

Chris Murphy: "By taking away the power of courts to restrain the president when he is clearly acting in an unlawful manner, as he is when he says children born in the US are no longer citizens, you are assisting him in trying to undermine the rule of law and undermine our democracy."

It’s really weird being the adult. How do you process the fact the best friend who helped you with the loss of your father is dead and his daughter is asleep on your couch so you can help her move into to a college program?

Rick Scott is responsible for the worst Medicaid fraud in history

this image has filled me with enough New York pride that I have no choice but to post Alycia Keys playing the New York piano

To make this day a bit more emotional, I saw this memory while sitting at the airport to pick up pod daughter who is staying with me for the night.

Also rural hospitals and clinics are screwed.

My dude. You’re fucking voting for it. “We shouldn’t do this, but I’m going to do it anyway” is the shit I said before my prefrontal cortex developed

I’m really tired of this song and dance. As a Jewish dude in New York, it’s unproductive and redundant. Zohran has said countless times he’s listening. Has made concrete pledges to combat antisemitism. But we’d never ask a Jewish candidate about Islamophobia.

The most important thing to know about the Bezos/Sanchez wedding is that Trump’s Big Ugly Bill would explode the debt, exacerbate economic inequality, and cause cruel and grievous harm to the most vulnerable Americans and we really should be talking about all of that a whole lot more.

Zohran’s first magazine cover since winning

They can use fake numbers right up until they have to face the debt limit. They can’t fake that number, so that’s where to look. It’s $5 trillion. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

This is the first state-by-state arrest data that we’ve seen www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

You can actually help kneecap Trump’s "mass deportation" arrests. Here’s how: - Participate in on-the-ground direct action - Get everyone legal representation - Oppose local cooperation with the feds - Fight Trump's massive DHS budget increase Read more: www.huffpost.com/entry/donald...

Tonight is too chaotic for me to read this at midnight but that’s what they want. Looking forward to reading the insight tomorrow

At midnight on Saturday, because they’re so proud of it and want all of us to know what good work they’re going to do for the American people

All the fun family stuff happens the day after therapy. It’s like doing a sports podcast and the club drops a signing right after you publish the episode

You know what hell yeah

Went to immigration court with JFREJ today handing out information about what to do in the face of ICE. You remember all the right-wingers who said they’re okay with “legal immigration”? Well, that’s who they’re going after now. (Reposted with better alt text.)

I’ve been screaming this since 2016

Now do Gillibrand! Or is that the acceptable level of hate and bigotry?

What. Is. Happening. NBC Los Angeles news write-up here: www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/h...

This from Tommy Tuberville may be the most racist things a U.S. senator has said in my lifetime. And the bar is high. www.al.com/politics/202...

"A child is dying of malnutrition about every 15 seconds, and meanwhile, the U.S. taxpayers have already purchased 185,000 boxes of Plumpy'Nut that taxpayers own that is sitting in a warehouse in Rhode Island gathering dust." @nickkristof.bsky.social talks USAID and more with @timmiller.bsky.social

“You see, being led by criminals eyebrow deep in corruption is an infinitely better proposition for government than a Muslim trying to help large amounts of citizens because the Jews” -Kirsten Gillibrand

ICE is now changing tactics and arresting people who have been granted asylum hearings.   This is both a violation of US & international law that demands immediate attention from all New York elected officials & underscores the urgent need for legal service providers to be at all of these cases.

I want to thank everyone who has donated so far! You all are angels. While republicans march SNAP benefits toward the chopping block, EVLovesNYC is on the front lines of food insecurity in this city. For my 41st birthday I’m trying to raise $1500 for them evloves.networkforgood.com/projects/242...

If you listen to the actual audio, it's very clear that she didn't misspeak. She was told she was wrong, but she refused to listen and continued to double and triple down. The least she can do is apologize and endorse the Democratic nominee even though he's Muslim. Whether she will is unclear.

Stripping birthright citizenship from people born in this country goes against rights guaranteed in the Constitution. We must stand against unconstitutional actions and stand up for the fundamental rights granted to people in the United States of America.

“No right is safe in the new legal regime the Court creates.” –Justice Sonia Sotomayor. One of the most chilling sentences I have ever read.

I really do think this might be the worst Supreme Court of all time, which is saying something for an institution that coexisted with slavery These motherfuckers are even worse imo bc they are *also* out here using antebellum reasoning and pursuing antebellum goals but well post bellum!
