andrew cuomo is emblematic of everything people despise about the democratic party and zohran is everything people want in politics, he represents hope for a better world

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

I need a historian to weigh in. How many chucklefucks have started wars?

You lose healthcare. They gain yachts. Keep spreading the word.

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.

I've tried to go further than this and point out that the public rejects the core MAGA ideology driving mass deportations at a very deep level. Trump admitting that deportations hurt the economy showed that MAGA politics on this is unsustainable. Dems blowing this: newrepublic.com/article/1968...

Many progressives are hesitant to support Gov. Newson because of his obvious, blatant political opportunism. When blatant political opportunism works in your favor, embrace it. Politicians are tools. Use them properly.

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.

This is how you normalize authoritarianism.

Reed: "You signed a contract with a company to reconfigure the [Qatari jet]. What is the price of that contract?” Hegseth: “That cannot be revealed.” Reed: “This is the Appropriations Committee of the United States Senate. We appropriate the money that you will spend.”

We feed you. They hunt us.

Pour one out for @aaronparnas.bsky.social He’s going to be busy.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

Loved Dept. Q on Netflix so I guess it will be cancelled.

Is it just the ones who are inside someone’s womb? Asking for a friend. FFS.

I don’t know how many times we have to say this, but the U.S. government is not a business and shouldn’t be run like one. It’s a service—for the people.

Even before latest thing I've been telling people for months Joni Ernst is way more vulnerable next year than people think. Dems should be investing a lot right now laying the ground work in the state.

Scott Pelley—American author and reporter for CBS News for more than 31 years, did not hold back

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans. You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.

Do we stare into the abyss and scream into the void? Or vice versa?

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

We’ve been going with “Swamp Force One” — but this works too. 👇🏽#HamasForceOne ✈️

Watching The French Chef with Julia Child and she’s handling raw chicken and touching everything. 😭

FRIEND: "We're at risk of slipping into fascism." ME: "Oh, honey . . . when they are arresting judges and mayors, we've already slipped."

I swear, people asking why don’t our dreams have smartphones? Has the Devil downloaded and updated Excel is the real question.

Sinners was absolutely amazing. Make sure to stay for the mid-credits and end-credits scenes.

Effective Corporate Tax Rates 1950: 50% 2025: 13% Top Marginal Tax Rates 1950: 91% 2025: 37% If you’re curious as to why the rich have so much and you have so little, these are good places to start.

Check out how the anchors of CBS Evening News ended their broadcast tonight:

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us
