In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government. She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her. So I confronted him.

Mamdani: "I'm not funded by the same donors that gave us Donald Trump's second term, which isn't something Andrew Cuomo can say."

What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity. And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

"To my colleagues in mainstream media: your silence is complicity. Your 'boths-sides-ism' is complicty. Your euphemisms for genocide is complicity." From my speech accepting the 'Path of Truth' award from Palestinian diaspora group KTH. Full speech: zeteo.com/p/palestine-...

Absolute all-timer sentence in today's @nytimes.com

Talk Of Fascism Dangerous, Warns Ministry Of Compliance

I miss my 50-year streak of not knowing who the Secretary of Health is or anything about them.

This is, without any exaggeration, exactly how Putin and Orbán proceeded — using antisemitism to discredit the idea of civil society and political opposition, and as an excuse to undo the rule of law. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/25/u...

currently at record-high search interest for canceling disney plus. pulling kimmel is a bigger deal to the company's bottom line than any of the "woke" scandals of the past 5 years. i think news & entertainment corp execs need put more work into understanding their audience, & get off twitter

@jm-mcgrath.bsky.social Just listened to the #OnPoli podcast and you said that Enbridge is forecasting $190 jumps in natural gas prices to Ontarians related to LNG, I'd love to dig into that for work, can you point me to the document that's in?

Don’t you dare call us fascists, they say, as they force people off the airwaves for criticizing them while vowing to crush and criminalize their opposition.

They had kids, too.

Next time someone on the right claims all the political violence in this country is coming from the left, not the right, do please show them this. You're welcome

Suddenly "hate speech" is bad. Suddenly "dehumanizing" people is bad. Suddenly "cancel culture" is good. Suddenly words have consequences. The modern American right in 2025, folks.

This is a Melissa Hortman appreciation account for the next 24 hours.

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

This is Manchis. She's the dog of Alberto Mesías Zárate, a journalist in Peru. When her human was targeted this week by criminals who threw an explosive device at their home, she barked at the perpetrators and successfully extinguished the dynamite before it detonated. 14/10 good girl, Manchis

Fact: Commercial fishing kills more than 300,000 whales and dolphins every year.

Air pollution from oil and gas kills over 90,000 people in the US every year and makes hundreds of thousands more sick, disproportionately affecting Black and brown communities. But Republicans want to drill baby drill and kill more people because they're racist af.

Every week, we at Zeteo compile a day by day list of Trump’s authoritarian excesses, abuses, law-breaking, fascism. He wants to flood the zone and numb us; we won’t let him. Read/share/subscribe:

Game on.

Let's be clear. Voters didn't get turned off the Dems against a literal fascist because "ew words", it was a failure to promise to fix big problems. If anyone tells you they lost because of specific words they are just telling on themselves that they have never ever talked to a voter personally.

Motherfucking wind farms…

Her name was Diana. She was 23 years old and 7 months pregnant. Russia murdered her today in an attack on the maternity hospital in Kamyanske.

I remember when Jill Stein told me there was no difference between the GOP and the Dems on climate change. 🤷🏽‍♂️ www.nytimes.com/2025/07/29/c...

Jubilee pitch: “Julius Caesar vs 20 Roman Senators”

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends. But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month. See you soon, NYC.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

What CBS' disgraceful termination of Stephen Colbert illustrates is how quickly a Republic can fall when the media chooses cowardice instead of courage.

A reminder that after years of speaking out against Epstein and giving other survivors the courage to come forward, Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre died by suicide in April at the age of 41. Let's not forget that there are real human tragedies behind everything we're discussing.

The same company that's buying CBS (and needs Trump's approval to do so) is also trying to buy Bari Weiss' website. It's a political decision.

Step in right direction by @mayoroliviachow.ca - but short timeline is vital! "Mayor asking staff to find a way to add longer priority bus lanes on Bathurst + Dufferin Streets, after staff watered down its proposal, to only add transit lanes south of Bloor." #topoli www.thestar.com/news/gta/con...

Smart climate action: “I wonder what the biggest pollution sources are, and how easy it would be to lower them substantially?” Then doing it. Dumb climate action: “I’m going to pick on things I don’t like personally and complain about their emissions, even if they’re tiny.” Then do nothing.

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." -FDR, 1937

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

Good morning with good news: Global EV sales surge 28% in H1 2025, compared to H1 2024! Global: 9.1 million, +28% China: 5.5 million, +32% Europe: 2.0 million, +26% North America: 0.9 million, +3% Rest of World: 0.7 million, +40% ROW up 40%: Wonderful! #energysky rhomotion.com/news/global-...

I cannot stress this enough, the companies in NA will die off because no one internationally wants their ICE products. We either get with them times or get left behind.

Little Haiti is vibrant. And it’s facing the same cost of living crisis as neighborhoods across the city. That's why Brooklyn Chair Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn and I are bringing the Democratic Party together around a shared vision for an affordable New York. I am grateful for her endorsement!

China is probably going to pass 50% EV new car sales this year. ICE technology is a dead man walking www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Cuomo: I am now running on affordability. Also Cuomo: there is no “real answer” on affordability.

FEMA removed dozens of Camp Mystic buildings from their 100-year flood map in Texas in response to appeals

“California is so far using forty per cent less natural gas to generate electricity than it did in 2023, which is the single most hopeful statistic I’ve seen in four decades of writing about the climate crisis.” www.newyorker.com/news/annals-...

Trump's Justice Department won’t seek an injunction to block T-Mobile's acquisition of U.S. Cellular. One of the largest wireless providers will now get even bigger. With that size comes more power — and less freedom for you. https://youtu.be/twdgxIJZDns?si=teRWdFu28u7I5EYf

"We've had our primary. And the people have spoken."

True story, I had someone call solar panels woke to me once. Anyways, Superman is one of the best super heroes and is a refugee. Dean Cain can eat green kryptonite.

My kingdom for an end to messaging absent strategy. Words you choose can only be evaluated on basis of what you want people to believe and ten times more critically what you want them to do. The task at hand is mass sustained resistance, refusal & ridicule not lowering approval in a poll.
