The AC is out at ICE's detention facility in Newark, where it currently feels like 107 degrees. Detainees say not even the ventilation is working, and that the water is dirty. Health inspectors recently tried to inspect the facility. They were turned away. www.nj.com/politics/202...

“How small they are, how weak, how unoriginal” is such👏a👏bar👏 @mayor.nyc.gov

Mamdani: "As we mark 250 years ... we see the wealthiest country -- one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's first trillionaire hungers for more ... we see masked agents terrorizing our streets, eating food cooked by undocumented neighbors before spiriting them away in unmarked vans"

a disgusting & deeply racist decision by CPJ. if Western journalists can only support other journalists if they’re white or also Western, then that’s an abdication of their core responsibilities as global journalists. CPJ can no longer be considered a legitimate organization, period.

Birthright citizenship is a constitutional right. PERIOD.

thanks to everyone who helped make this birthday such a special one! grateful & humbled by the love, y’all😌🎊🍒

another year around the sun (& under the moonlight)🌤️🌙🍒 grateful. hbd to me!🎊🎂🥳

“The Democratic Party machine in the Blue stronghold of NYC was thoroughly defeated tonight… young people have taken over NYC + we’re going to Congress… tonight marks the end of bought out boomer establishment Dems.” @hasanthehun @EmmaVigeland @sunrisemvmt learn it’s 3 for 3

A 32-year-old Democratic socialist who once said "Fuck Kamala Harris" has just beat the Chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus — who was backed by the entire party establishment and millions of dollars. There is not even a doubt. The Democratic Tea Party is here.

Joy Reid: “Mamdani went 3 for 3. This is a sea change. Get used to it.”

NEWS: In a stunning upset, Mamdani-backed Darializa Avila Chevalier will defeat five-term incumbent Adriano Espaillat in the NY-13 congressional primary. With victories by Lander, Valdez, and now Avila Chevalier, Mamdani went 3-for-3 with his endorsements in New York City's Democratic primaries.

🗣️ HASAN: "I wish they'd stop calling me a terrorist, a radical — None of these (winning candidates) are radical... They want to end 🇺🇸 militarism, spend 💰 on roads, infrastructure, schooling, healthcare, rather than 💣 overseas."

"If you are an establishment Democrat that spent the last three decades sitting on your throne not doing right by your constituents, we’re coming for you." — Hasan Piker on the @hellgatenyc.com livestream

BREAKING: Claire Valdez wins the Democratic NY-7 primary and will be the district's next congresswoman. Claire worked in fast food and at Trader Joe's, and organized a union before seeking office. She joins a wave of working people entering Congress to fight billionaire power.

a cool moment -- Kaitlin Collins tells Brad Lander that he won his primary live on air during an interview with him. Lander responds by saying, "I'm thrilled. I did not expect to be on air when the race was called."

Rep. Dan Goldman has been unseated by Mamdani-backed Brad Lander. Get fucked, centrists.

Thank you to the people of NY-10. To everyone who knocked a door, made a call, or donated a dollar: this win is only possible because of your belief in a people’s movement. (1/3)

A university that called the cops on its own peaceful students is now set to be represented by one of them in Congress

Two years after Darializa Avila Chevalier took part in the Gaza solidarity encampment at Columbia University, she is now set to represent the district in which the university is located in Congress.

Mamdani: When I am speaking about AIPAC, I’m speaking about an organization that has fought any attempt to actually deliver safety to people not just in Palestine but, frankly, throughout much of the region. And it is a status quo of immorality. It is one that I will not accept.

NEW: Pope Leo XIV stood beside Cindy McCain — John McCain's widow — at the U.N. World Food Programme on Monday and told the world’s governments they feed wars faster than they feed hungry children. Within hours, MAGA influencers were comparing the first U.S.-born pope to Stalin and Mao.

happy father’s day to one of the greatest. i still miss you every day💔 #fathersday

A kitten's first Knicks parade. Looks a little frightened, but he will remember it when he's a grown up cat.

this is honestly an excellent celebratory and motivational speech from Mamdani at the Knicks parade. i'm ready to run through a wall, and i'm not even a Knicks fan

bruh, are you actually trying to argue that @wired.com never saw the section of the dialog list that features Peter Thiel’s name? because it was literally everywhere. i’m not even on the tech beat & i saw it. it’s not some obscure Sumerian text or tablet.…it’s alphabetical, for pete’s sake

The reason i find that hard to believe, Dell, is Nick Thompson is listed right below Peter Thiel in the Dialog membership or attendee list & it literally states,”…Fmr. Editor-in-chief, Wired Magazine.” You wrote,as you say, an article about that list, which i presume u read. Also you work at Wired?🤷‍♀️

it should be a much bigger deal that @wired.com fails to mention that its own former Editor-in-Chief Nick Thompson (Jonah Lehrer’s former editor at The New Yorker) is listed in this group of members/attendees of Peter Thiel’s secret society, Dialog

it should be a much bigger deal that legacy media journalists like ezra klein, bret stephens & @newyorker.com writer atul gawande are part of or attended peter thiel’s secret society, dialog.

the knicks win, thus proving zohran mamdani has the mandate of heaven

The Knicks finally figured out how to do the right thing.

HAPPY PRIDE KNICKS IN FIVE

Parade. Thursday. Manhattan.

HISTORY.

BIG KNICKS ENERGY

KNICKS IN FIVE KNICKS PRIDE BROOKLYN

"My mayor Muslim / my bagels Jewish / my Christian Dior / Knicks in Four" is basically Keats to me

$300 day rate for an art director for film is abysmal. when I work with design studios as a senior designer my day rate is easily +$100 more for a role w/ far less responsibility and skill. I’ve worked video productions before and the art director role is so crucial and demanding. this is insulting.

I’d like to think that if I produced a movie as wildly profitable as Obsession I would have already reached out to the crew to let them know what kind of bonuses to expect.

Reporter for The Free Press says there’s no point in going places yourself if you can read about them on Wikipedia. Truly, the soul of a journalist.

Scott Pelley: “Bari Weiss sends an email to my boss, Tanya Simon: can we make the protesters look more violent? I’m paraphrasing Also: Renee Good’s car. You need to describe her as driving toward the officer. That’s not what the video shows. The officer is standing off the front of the car”

This is a devastating interview. Scott Pelley tells the NYT that Bari Weiss directly put a “thumb on the scale” for Trump over the killing of Renee Good. Here’s his explanation of exactly what happened.

Scott Pelley says Bari Weiss told him to lie about the killing Renee Good. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/06/07/m...

And they came 🇪🇸🙏

“i don’t feel anything right now” is the most privileged, self-absorbed rich white woman take as we all see black, latino & lgbtq Americans being targeted daily gwyneth paltrow in 1944 germany: “i don’t feel anything right now. gee, haven’t seen anne frank in a while, wonder where she is…”

OK now I am officially rooting for the Knicks

Just remember, the last time the Knicks won it all, a corrupt president was forced to resign the next year.

it's so crazy that Esquire published a piece in 2012 that was literally titled "Elon Musk: Triumph of His Will" www.esquire.com/news-politic...

Platner clearly no saint, but seems noteworthy his accuser is a Republican operative who defended Kavanaugh, attacked Christine Blasey Ford, and falsely accused Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk of doing things they didn’t, in defense of Israel. (which Platner is critical of)

I’m mostly thankful that I’m not a Maine voter at this point. Platner is a shitshow. But Susan Collins has done irreparable damage to our nation with her dithering and her ‘concern’ This is unfortunately going to be a vote of the least bad option, and Platner will at least hold Trump accountable.
