Pretty amazing that a former president will sit quietly as one of his successors orders US troops into American cities and ships innocent people off to concentration camps—but feels compelled to speak up when a fellow HR nightmare is at risk of losing to another member of the same party.

My relatives in East L.A. — born in the U.S.A. — are afraid to go outside because masked men with guns are randomly snatching people off the street. This is a government terrorism campaign against its own people.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

The concept of sexual harassment has endorsed Andrew Cuomo for Mayor.

Oh

the democratic party establishment pushing andrew cuomo over zohran mamdani is proof that they don’t really want to appeal to young men at all. they want to ostracize his coalition the same way they osteacized the bernie sanders coalition

Ah here comes @cnn.com with the bullshit straight out of 2003

theonion.com/new-bomb-cap...

There was a survey a few weeks ago that found half of Americans thought ICE was just hunting criminals. The institutional press have failed to make clear ICE’s primary strategy today is capturing people through the use of compliance traps, and shipping them off to substandard prisons in the South.

the mamdani/Cuomo election has been really useful for seeing which liberals can safely be written off completely and never listened to again

The idea that pro-trans movements led to anti-trans sentiment is egregiously out of touch with reality. Increased LGBTQ representation led to historic shifts in public opinion toward the community. The aggressively bigoted and violent campaigns that lied about trans people are clearly responsible

The Washington Post depicts resistance to fascism as if it were a political stunt. The shallowness and cynicism of the Post is shameful.

holy shit. Cuomo halted an investigation into the Weinstein case after a donation from Weinstein’s former lawyer’s firm to his reelection campaign… guys, this was in 2018 AFTER the Weinstein exposés (multiple) had been published & the #metoo movement was ascendant

This is incredibly funny but, also, I hope everyone who is pro AI or a teacher that allows AI can see clear as day that the ultimate goal is to put the thumb on the scale of all of this shit. That's why they're forcing it on us. It's a joke.

When people support Andrew Cuomo, what they’re saying implicitly is that they don’t care about the women he’s already sexually harassed and retaliated against and they won’t care if he does it again. It’s a political stance that enables discrimination against women in government

it takes a special brand of political incompetence to see millions of people marching against the opposition and not do anything to seize that momentum but it appears dem leadership has decided to do just that

That Clyburn thinks Andrew Cuomo is part of the future of the Democratic Party - and points to his character!!! — is the problem with the current Democratic Party leadership in a nutshell. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/20/n...

nonzero chance that neither the World Cup nor the 2028 Summer Olympics take place in the United States the way things are going

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

Juneteenth is the perfect moment to remind everyone of two facts: 1. Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it. 2. Those who prevent history from being taught are plotting to repeat it. Read this out loud. Read it again. Then teach it to your kids.

What were they actually gonna do here? Ask every brown-enough person for their papers to go to the fucking baseball game? This is the most slam-dunk, anti-American thing I can think of. You need a passport to go to a Major League Baseball game now? Malpractice not to make a huge deal out of this.

Tucker Carlson, of all people, showing how easy it can be to pop the bullshit bubble if you don’t mind making a liar angry should shame every White House reporter.

We really need to stop talking about this as some kind of looming threat rather than a process well underway. It’s not “close.” You have arrived at your destination. The order has been delivered.

“Don’t worry the pendulum will swing back” is: 1. A false assumption 2. Stunningly naive 3. Real loser shit

In 150 days we have had 5 Democratic lawmakers arrested by ICE. WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING??? God this is MADDENING. We have NO ONE in office ready to lead mass movements to overthrow tyranny. FUCK THEM ALL.

The claims that McIver, Padilla, and Lander were committing assault should make you question every other time LEOs claim assault or resisting arrest, if you weren’t already.

All the Republican examples of "violent" rhetoric from Democrats is someone like Tim Walz saying "these people are assholes, you should be rude to them" and all the Republican equivalents are a guy with a top-secret security clearance tweeting "I will personally kill Ilhan Omar with a gun"

democratic leaders are operating like the mike lee thing is just a slip up by one guy instead of how the entire movement thinks. im tired of it. this is who they are. theyve been like this for decades. whether its goldwater opposing civil rights, reagan attacking welfare recipients or wmds

congrats on catching the fuckass assassin However, this does prove that police CAN apprehend a highly dangerous person without filling them full of bullet holes. Curious.

The Atlantic should be ashamed of publishing this nightmare piece from Liz Bruenig, whose callous dismissal of Adriana Smith's dignity is one of the most shocking things I've ever read.

Quick reminder that the majority of Americans live in cities, "real America" is urban, and when people scream obscenities about cities they are screaming obscenities about America.

It's pretty telling that the second part of the "Mamdani is a danger to Jewish new yorkers" pitch is always "so vote for sexual harasser shitbag Italian Catholic Andrew Cuomo" and not "so vote for Jewish Progressive Brad Lander"

For Dems to even consider a comeback for Cuomo after his serial predation of women, is for Dems to also say that EVERYTHING they claim to believe about equality and women’s rights to be safe in the workplace was bullshit. Do they even get the level of hypocrisy?

The New York Times and the rest of the msm is in a concerted effort to downplay the No Kings rallies. As someone who remembers them doing the same vs the Iraq War, I can unequivocally say they were wrong and you were right. Over and over.

If all cops had to be drug tested at 9am this morning, how quickly do you think it would be in the news that all sorts of drugs end up in your blood just by looking at them.

You’ll notice that the American state media are no longer concerned about age seeing as the orange felon is now nearly 80 years old and all they’ve been doing is normalizing his birthday dictator march. They have completely failed all of us as well as our democracy.

I did an event in DC & there was a party for donors etc after. Was talking to 2 ppl & I said "Things are so bad." They said "No this is how it is. Things swing one way, then another. It's normal." That's when I realized why Dems are toothless. They have no idea what this is. Frogs boiling in water.

I thought I was losing my mind when this happened because it was an attempted assassination of a national political leader and it was treated like it was nothing.

Our able men and women in uniform swear an Oath to support the Constitution—they didn’t sign up to spend the weekend in a military parade to feed the insatiable narcissism of an incorrigible insurrectionist/dictator.

NPR treating RFK Jr's embrace of Miasma theory as some kind of old time folksy quirk, instead of a theory that was discredited before the car was invented, and has very deadly consequences is not just awful, but profane. We will be both-sidesed into a deadly pandemic. And the question is why?

They like Trump, helped him win and now they're trying to help him rule over us like a king

There is only one side in American politics that consistently supports and endorses political violence. People need to stop being afraid to say so.

People may know Hampstead Mayor Jeremy Levi for his extreme rhetoric in support of the Netanyahu government. But within three years of being elected mayor, he oversaw an explosion of cash bonuses to the town’s highest paid employees and a culture of lavish spending therover.ca/hampstead-ma...

Big fan. But, I don't think this is on me. Or us. In fact, a lot of us said this was coming and we were told to relax & the institutions would save us but a guy who wasn't legally allowed to run is the President and I don't think that has to do with us. Don't blame your constituents.

just watched this netflix documentary on the oklahoma city bombing and once again i'm struck by how so many of the popular media takes on this event just avoid entirely the connection to organized white supremacism

Two Democratic lawmakers were just shot in their homes. Armed men in body armor pretending to be cops. This is the end result of SCOTUS immunity & GOP silence. Dem leaders must go to the Court NOW. Demand a ceasefire on our democracy. No more waiting.

With the tragic assassination of a Minnesota Democratic leader, I’m going to underline this point again.
