In 1948, my great uncle Johnny Ortega, already an amateur champion, sought to qualify for the Summer Olympics in London. Years ago, I found footage of his victory in the CA/NV sub-regional final. (The blue and yellow from his robe and trunks is the inspiration for my campaign brand colors.)

I mean, who could have imagined the guy who hosted Harvey Weinstein, Roger Ailes, O.J. Simpson, and Bill Cosby had such bad judgment?

Spoke to the largest newspaper serving the East Bay about why I'm running and what I'm fighting for in #CA14.

It's almost certainly DMCA takedown. The Olympics and their broadcast partners are worse than Disney on this stuff.

I sincerely hope that JD Vance gets this reaction every single place he goes.

Strange how Trump keeps surrounding himself with people from the Epstein list.

"Twitter is cooking their brains" theory looking pretty strong

This sort of thing used to get low-level Republican aides fired, county chairs to quit, and forced censures and resignations for lawmakers. There are tons of these examples.

I don't know how the Warriors mounted that comeback. Whew boy

Chat-JEE-PT

My freshman year roommate was from Glen Ridge in Essex County. There's a lot of money out there.

A miscalculation that may only be eclipsed if the Texas GOP gerrymandered themselves out of seats in November.

Tanking the economy so we can't afford to eat is one way, I guess.

What was a Paul Weiss exec doing going to a conference on "leadership in uncertain times" anyway? You folded, fool.

They’re trying to run the Kilmar Abrego Garcia playbook with a five year old boy in a bunny hat because nobody can find peace if they embarrass the Trump administration publicly. Normal people didn’t like it with Garcia and they really aren’t going to like it for Liam.

There are candidates out there who won’t say what needs to be said. If they won’t *say* it, they sure as hell ain’t going to *do* it. Support those who will.

If you want to destroy the economy, hire a Republican president.

Hey so trumprx actually went live and it's got the same cost savings as goodrx. Exactly the same. However it's worse because it doesn't include generics. Generic protonix is about $6. This literally does nothing. What a joke.

They are just kidnapping children every day

The Republicans are destroying this country. Again.

turnout in the NJ-11 special Democratic primary today is on track to surpass NJ-11's turnout in the 2024 Senate primary

‘One officer told me that I "had no chance of returning to Minnesota" and that "the best thing for (me] is self-deportation." … She offered me $2600 to self-deport. I refused. I wanted to talk to my attorney. They didn't tell me the judge had already ordered my release and return to Minnesota.’

🚨HOLY CRAP. The Trump admin just took a SLEDGEHAMMER to due process, largely eliminating the Board of Immigration Appeals process and MANDATING DISMISSAL of ALL appeals (which cost $1,000 thanks to OBBBA) filed after tomorrow unless a majority of the BIA votes to hear the case.

It really is a determined, systematic effort to take everything the government does that people might find helpful or worthwhile and destroy it

I am not exaggerating: Removing this webpage warning against fake autism "treatments" will kill autistic people. www.medpagetoday.com/neurology/au...

Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.

This was the thought I had the moment that indictment landed.

always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post

"...grind the paper down, yank it right, & rip out its spine" is pretty much exactly what the Block family just did to a 240 y.o. institution & crucial local resource - the first newspaper west of the Allegheny Mountains.

A large CAVA bag stuffed with what it says is $50,000 for White House Border Czar Tom Homan. It’s been reported Homan took bribery money when he was recorded by the FBI accepting a bag full of $50,000 in cash. “ICE GTFO OF MN” Minneapolis February 4, 2026

I think one thing people outside Minnesota don't understand is that after Good and Pretti were killed by feds while observing, the most normal people you could imagine have made peace with the fact that they could be next, and they are still out there because they say it's the right thing to do.

Twitter is an unregistered Republican super PAC no different than FOX News is an unregistered Republican super PAC.

My mother died from cancer in 1992. She was 37. I was 8. These trials offered hope that fewer 8 year old boys would bury their 37 year old mothers due to cancer.

We’re literally killing ourselves. They’ve been working on cutting edge cancer vaccines

This part of our response essay is where I'm at. Boiling down all of politics to electoralism has been absolutely terrible for resisting rising authoritarianism. www.bostonreview.net/forum/how-no...

Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ.

They think of it as every person for themselves unless a Democrat attacks FOX News. Then they turn into NATO.

There was a fund floating around somewhere to purchase dashcams for observers.

Remember like 15 years ago, when Russian dash cams of horrible accidents went viral? And everyone in Russia was using them because they couldn’t trust the authorities? Fundamentally, the dash cam and the body cam are the visual record of a failed state. They are a symptom posing as a substitute

Adequate tax policy would likely have saved this rich doofus a lot of embarrassment by taking the money he is literally burning and instead doing something useful with it.

Oklahoma receives $18 billion more in federal funds than it gives with 12.2 percent from California. Nearly half of Oklahoma's government revenue is from federal funding. Just say thank you and be on your way, asshole.

"The population of CBP agents and officers who have been arrested would make it roughly the nation’s fourth largest police department — equal to the size of the entire Philadelphia police."

Arnold Shortman, leader of antifa.

Every time I see Trump's second term portrait, it looks like Vigo the Carpathian from "Ghostbusters II."

RFK Jr. traded silence on his uncle's memorial for the chance to kill kids with preventable diseases.

The Kennedy Center is a memorial to an assassinated president. This is all just so ghoulish.

"I'm not tearing it down, I'm just stripping it down to the studs" is the kind of "I found a loophole, catch me if you can!" answer you can always expect from Donald J. Trump.

For the record: the person who is described as the "mastermind" of the fraud is a white woman.

In 2019, the thing that got Dems to stop avoiding conflict and fight Trump directly was that he got caught corrupting foreign policy to cheat in his own election. Self-preservation made it impossible to ignore. Whatever Trump has planned for 2026 is already underway. So Dems need that mindset back.
