Blue MAGA should be constantly reminded that by not speaking up from the start of the genocide, they enabled Biden, stuck us w a pro genocide candidate and if our non-votes mattered, THEY helped elect Trump so they could continue to murder children.

Lander: "It's just gross, racist bigotry. Meanwhile he's running an optimistic, upbeat campaign for a NY where everybody belongs, and I feel proud as the highest-ranking Jewish elected official in NYC to be supporting somebody who would be the first Muslim mayor—what could be more NYC than that?"

Pediatricians and pediatric societies around the world sowed the seeds of vaccine doubt during the pandemic through discord, wavering and lack of a strong unified voice urging childhood vaccination. It was picked up and amplified by bad actors who are now in charge. The power to undo it is with them

the level of Islamophobia and anti Palestinian racism which is considered acceptable, and even admirable, among Democrats is really horrific.

Notice how the legacy and corporate media are publishing lots of stories about the rich people who are scared of Mamdani, but none about the working class people who worked to elect him or voted for him?

I genuinely think Bill Ackman is a crown jewel of the USA, by which I mean he should be locked in a tower and only allowed out once a year for public display

I don’t know if Mamdani will ultimately become a successful mayor, I don’t know if Lander will go on to do new things, but I sure as shit know that it’s nice to see politicians and think “I like them, they seem like good human beings”

In 2003, a subway attack left 192 dead in Daegu. When flames returned underground in Seoul last month, that memory helped prevent a second tragedy. www.koreaherald.com/article/1051...

Not only weight based parking charges (and whatever VED morphs into), but also weight based SPEEDING fines please. Doing 23mph in 20 zone in a heavy SUV has more potential to cause serious harm than in a lighter car, so represents more reckless driving behaviour by the driver - hence higher fine.

I’m not sharing the post, because racists are stupid and dull, but one of them accused Mamdani of committing “vibe warfare,” which is amazing. I am proud to be alive during a time when even vibes can fight wars.

And then this shit just came out. When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car. When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.

I just don't understand what the NYT is trying to accomplish here. "Promise Closer Scrutiny" implies that there was a lack, that childhood vaccines had not been sufficiently studied, and further that the new ACIP is committing to affirmative steps to remedy a dereliction. None of that is true.

The only pollster (literally) to get tonight right, PPP, takes a victory lap. And says they “saw Zohran Mamdani’s first place finish coming before anyone else did for one simple reason: we polled the 2025 electorate instead of the 2021 electorate.” www.publicpolicypolling.com/polls/why-pp...

Just do politics that help real people. It’s not that complicated. It’s not that even really that hard. You just have to listen, look at data, and really want to help.
