BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity. This is a major win for public health.

I can't think of anyone currently running for office more dangerous than Andrew Cuomo. Not just for NYC but for the nation, because unfortunately NYC disproportionately affects the rest of the states. Bad politicians elsewhere don't have the same structural power. NYC: Do not vote for this man.

This isn't all of the story, but a surprisingly big part of the "fear" of Mamdani isn't actually that he'll institute full communism, it's that people's friends-and-influence groups will be demoted from their positions of authority

cryptoendorsing Andrew Cuomo to lead the city he hates and doesn’t live in is the kind of disqualifyingly bad opinion that should ensure that no one listens to you on anything ever again

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"

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.

we have an elite impunity problem and a lot of the people and institutions that nominally oppose Trump will burn down their own before admitting that this helped produce him

The thing about Cuomo is that it doesn't even seem like he actually wants to be mayor of New York, y'know? He wants a job, he wants prestige, he wants a stepping stone, he wants power, he wants "redemption". But you don't get any sense that he has any actual interest in running the city.

Years ago at a church I worked at, an elderly parishioner wept inconsolably in my arms after the funeral of her “good friend” - a woman she had deeply loved romantically for over 50 years. But they’d never lived together or ever done anything public that might suggest they were lesbians.

It will forever anger me that so many NY State Democratic leaders are backing a known sexual predator to lead New York City just to protect Big Money and corporate greed — and then will continue saying they will “fight for women.” Don’t rank Cuomo.

The Hofs of Red Vienna reflect a moment when a city roundly rejected the idea that access to a decent home depends on one's ability to pay...residents embraced a comprehensive program of decommodified housing, where the creation of new homes for working-class families served a manifestly public good

Today marks nine years since Jo Cox was assassinated by a far-right extremist, a terrible loss to those who knew and loved her and to politics. Zero lessons were learned though and the far-right continues to be pandered to. With more political assassinations in the US it all feels too familiar.

One weird indignity of being a feminist in America is not just that a belief in women’s inferiority is part of the political mainstream, but that the violence of those who hold that belief is considered unremarkable.

Okay so I take it back this parade is amazing. Massive turnout every city to tell Trump to go fuck himself and meanwhile his big weird dictator parade is attended by two dozen rednecks, some people out for a picnic who don’t understand what’s happening, and a smattering of press.

97% of extremist-related murders in the U.S. in 2024 were linked to right-wing extremists. It’s not a political movement anymore - it’s a hobby for failed men with too much testosterone and not enough brain cells.

At any time during the kerfuffle with @padilla.senate.gov, DHS secretary Kristi Noem could have called off the goons She didn't because she's a performative cosplaying thug who lives for theater and feared the questions coming from CA's senior senator Alex Padilla

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.

“If ICE is going to wear a mask in their uniform, then I can.” In August, Nassau County lawmakers passed a bill banning the public from wearing masks. Protesters showed up today masked anyway. We asked them why.

So based on numbers , the Taco parade wouldn't have filled a fifth of Michigan Stadium The Big House. The No Kings rallies would have filled over 98 Michigan Stadiums. To give some perspective.
