Jeff Bezos of Amazon had a 50 million dollar wedding in Venice surrounded by billionaires, celebs, and the elite but the true threat to American workers and democracy is Zohran Mamdani and AOC, who want affordable housing, health care, and higher wages.

Thanks for your vote of confidence…I guess?! Unlike you, I’d actually be focused on the American people—the issues they’re facing, making sure folks have healthcare, and consulting with Congress before dropping bombs on another country.

nyt op-ed: we cannot normalize the left’s brazen attempt to win voters by talking to them

A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa. It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;) It's so New York.

Hahaha, get fucked, Cuomo. It’s a good day to be a New Yorker.

Do the right thing: rank me #1, Zohran #2, and DON'T RANK ANDREW CUOMO.

Enjoying a small pivo in the land of my fathers.

I assure you, none of them are mine.

I've said it many times before and Andrew Cuomo is making me say it again: we don't have a cancellation problem. We have never had a cancellation problem. To the contrary, we have a problem that "disgrace" is a very temporary embarrassment— an brief entr'acte more than an intermission.

This was the Dashcon ball pit of military parades.

Fifty thousand of my neighbors and I came out today to share the NYC mantra: “If you fuck with one of us, you fuck with all of us.”

Niagra-on-the-Lake is picturesque beyond all reason. I think when I’m a bozillionaire, I shall keep my summer home and sailboat here.

Jeffrey Seller’s memoir “Theatre Kid” is the best book I’ve read in ages.

We’re ready to take this thing! #GoLeafs

It’s a beautiful day in NYC—a perfect day to work with my West 72nd Street Block Association to clean and care for our neighborhood tree beds.

They say dogs and their people start to resemble each other. I don’t see it…

Now that I’ve tried puppy yoga, I’m not sure I’ll ever bother to do yoga without puppies again. #PuppyYogaNYC

A few more shots of the fab Baskerville Hall Hotel. What a treasure!

Great find at a map shop in Hay-on-Wye: an original 18th century copper engraving print of St. Bartholomew’s Hospital. Sherlockians will get it.

It’s a beautiful day in Wales, and I’m staying at Baskerville Hall.

Putting my big fat mouth to good use here in NYC. #FiftyFiftyOne #HandsOff

Hey, did you know there's an alternative to ChatGPT that makes sense economically and doesn't destroy the environment? It's called English majors and they will happily fix all of your documents for the low price of health insurance and a living wage.

Boswell is two years old! Happy Birthday to the goodest boy!

Dr. Crusher with the whole 2025 mood.

Elder millennials watching traders freak out about a global economic collapse that will wreck tens of millions of lives and livelihoods, possibly irreparably

If you can’t—or won’t—tell the bad guys from the good guys, you’re one of the bad guys. There is no neutral position. Pick a side.

This is what democracy looks like. #HandsOff

NYC hates Trump’s guts. #HandsOff

This is the ideal male body. You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like.

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "Girl this has happened every ten years since you were born" said Gandalf.

I’m tired of winning.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

Throw back to being a delegate at the 2019 South Carolina Democratic Convention. Proud to march with him then, proud he spoke for us today.

Thank you, Cory. #GoodTrouble

Show me 4 pictures in your phone that have your energy that AREN'T selfies.

I love living in NYC, where I can just spontaneously sign up for a workshop to learn to paint my dog in pastels. It’ll do for an inaugural effort.

@muellershewrote.com has long been my trusted source for independent news. MSW Media has filed a FOIA lawsuit against DOGE. I’ve donated to the legal costs, and you can, too. www.nationalsecuritylaw.org/donate?utm_s...

A very old Soviet joke, from an especially dark time: Foxes are fleeing the USSR in droves. Q: Why are you running away? Fox: The Soviets passed a new law that they’re going to arrest all camels. Q: But you’re foxes! Fox: Yeah, why don’t *you* try proving to the NKVD that you’re not a camel.
