This is unprecedented. The AMA and other medical professional societies speak as one on respiratory virus vaccines and in their own way, say the Trump Administration cannot be trusted with your health. www.ama-assn.org/delivering-c...

A fascinating map from @donnermaps.bsky.social overlaying Tuesday's Dem primary results with a map of the NYC subway system. Inspired by an astute observation from @kleinman.bsky.social, who noted that Mamdani did better in areas served by the subway while Cuomo did better in car-centric areas.

Zohran Mamdani is saying things like “poverty is a policy choice and politicians have a duty to their constituents to make their lives affordable” and it is making a lot of politicians very very scared that they may actually have to start doing some actual service in their public service jobs.

Just called my US rep @repdangoldman.bsky.social to ask him to demand the House censure Ogles for this miserable, bigoted, anti-American, fascist attack - and to do everything he can to defend Mamdani and the rest of us. If you agree, please call your own rep asap. Find your reps here: reps.fyi

This is HUGE. Parliamentarian knocks out Medicaid provider tax language, various Medicaid/immigration provisions (including penalty on states that cover undocumented w/state-only $), and bar on Medicaid for gender-affirming care.

To #2 here, if your politics are purportedly about The People but you can’t handle the prospect of organizing actual people, good luck I guess but I don’t think you’ll get far and also I don’t want to be around you

A reminder that the @nytimes.com told New Yorkers to not rank Mamdani at all, & instead endorsed former hedge fund manager Whitney Tilson. Tilson sits at a whopping .8%. Corporate media trust is dead. They killed themselves by failing to fulfill their promise of holding the powerful accountable.

Zohran Mamdani is the only democrat in the mayoral race that released an LGBTQ platform and the only democrat in the country (that I know of) to commit to safeguarding gender affirming care for youth + adults with $$.

New, from me: Congressional Republicans are attacking the Congressional Budget Office and proposing to cut the General Accountability Office in half. Why? They had the temerity to challenge what the Trump administration is doing, Y’know, checks and balances. 🧵 open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...

There really is something special about what Zohran and Brad are showing the rest of the world what it still means to be a New Yorker and an American. A Jew and a Muslim modeling a politics of mutual respect, rejecting cynicism. Human decency has been taking a beating but she's not out just yet!

Can we all give #BradLander a big hand for throwing himself on the tracks in front of the Cuomo train, because it's starting to look like it worked.

plenty of my fellow libposters will say that the mayoral race of new york does not matter nationally, and they are mostly right, but what does matter is that good, charismatic campaigns work, and i would like to see my libposters give some credit to that.

it is unfathomable to some people that a person can have a good life and go "damn it'd be cool if other people also had good lives we should make that happen"

Honestly one of the best reasons I can give you to plant native plants right now is that everything fucking sucks & a lot of it feels (or is) totally out of our control (depending on who you are). One thing most people can do is plant a plant and then look at bees happily sipping on it.

Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied. I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every vaccine-preventable death at your feet.
