Perhaps my favorite sign from the many protests and rallies we’ve seen in #NY17: A mock check from Elon Musk to Mike Lawler for $1,727,639, the amount of money Elon spent to get Lawler re-elected…and thus the amount of money Elon spent to buy Lawler’s vote.

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

A once-great, now-rotted-out ship called the United States is being sunk by the United States because nothing else can be done with it. This is not a metaphor. I mean, not ONLY a metaphor. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/19/u...

NY Gov. Kathy Hochul’s response: “We are a nation of laws, not ruled by a king. The MTA has initiated legal proceedings in the Southern District of New York to preserve this critical program. We’ll see you in court.”

RIP to Marc Molinaro’s #ThinkDifferently campaign. He lost #NY19 but cozied up to trump/musk, told his share of maga lies & got his subservient good boy reward of a job with this corrupt administration. Kids with disabilities are just collateral damage.

Why they really shuttered CFPB paulkrugman.substack.com/p/springtime...

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?
