Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

Watch centrist pundits insist that Zohran Mamdani's mayoral win "means nothing" because NYC is "too liberal" and "out of step with mainstream American sentiment." But then why did centrists and their corporate donors pump so much money into this race?

hahaha i really hope all the racist right-wing shitheads who threatened to leave NYC if Zohran won actually do it. they won't because they're cowards of comfort and convenience, but it would make the city a lot cooler!

On the one hand, Mamdani's win is one primary in one city. On the other hand, nationally:

NYTimes has a long history of holding conservatives—including its paid columnists, like Stephens here—to absolutely no standards whatsoever, but still worth noting the complete lack of ethics required to not mention how 99.99% of Iran's uranium stockpile was due to Trump withdrawing from JCPOA.

This entire attack line is so bizarre. It's not a phrase Mamdani uses, it's just something random people chanted at a protest. All evidence indicates that the pro-Palestinian movement is not substantially motivated by antisemitism, it is motivated by moral revulsion at mass killing.

Also our communities nourished us. People bringing the workers food made such a difference here. I’ve felt so cared for in this city.

I’m a mother from Gaza. This is me, standing at the entrance of our tent — what remains of home We have no food, no clean water, no medicine. I’ve watched my children suffer in silence, sleeping on the bare ground, crying from hunger Please, if you’re reading this, help us survive gofund.me/2655a12d

i am simply asking the press to cover the government sending masked thugs to rip people from their crying children and shipping them to a foreign concentration camp with the same ferocity they cover a trans kid playing jv tennis in sheboygan

Happy Sunday morning. Apple apps are still crap. My iPhone just gave me a report on my screen time for the week, but the app goes by the calendar week rather than the last 7 days. So my screen time is zero and it will send me another identical report next Sunday morning.

I feel like we don’t talk enough about how the reason cable news became the way it is was CNN’s coverage of the first Gulf War (which was completely framed as a patriotic spectacle) being immensely profitable.

We would not be at this terrifying moment without Joe Biden & his team. Emboldening Netanyahu beyond even Israelis’ expectations (in Gaza + Lebanon), abandoning hopes of a renewed Iran nuclear deal & fracturing their voting coalition, a team that promised credentials + stability brought huge danger.

Cuomo quietly passed a law shielded nursing home corporations and their CEOs from COVID victims families' lawsuits - as his political machine raked in $2 million from the hospital/nursing home lobby. Now, voters may reward him by making him their mayor.

Not to claim any credit for yesterday’s No Kings protests, but in my 2014 book Conservatism is Un-American, I talk a lot about conservatives’ "closet monarchism" – esp in my chapter on their bizarre Nazi analogies. If you're interested in studying this tendency, I posted it on my blog:

I think people need to understand that the violence in LA has solely been at the hands of the LAPD, who operates under the authority of our Democrat mayor and above her, our Democrat governor. It’s grotesque the Nat’l Guard and Marines are even here, but it’s the police that are brutalizing people.

Especially if you're on the fence about it, protest today. Fascism is isolating and lonely. Its very goal is to make you feel like you're the only person unwilling to accept a cult of personality. On days like today you fully realize there are more of us than there are them. You will feel better.

So lemme get this straight you think there are answers that explain assault. This has nothing to do with him being a Senator even, he was thrown to the ground for talking. It's assault Chuck. OK, pretend this happened to a carton of eggs. Maybe that framing will help you understand
