My latest premium newsletter is about the failure of the anti-Mamdani media blitz, and what it says about the decaying influence of The New York Times.

Holy ass he said it out loud. They can't make us feed hungry people. This is insane. Like insane right? This is our tax money earmarked for SNAP and he's like no it's mine now, check out the ballroom.

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

“I feel like it’s just going to destroy so many lives. It’s going to be a family annihilator. It tells you everything you want to hear.”

It's worth noting here that Steve Bannon has no policy prescriptions. He's not saying to lower prices or change foreign policy or any of that. He's saying they need to seize the state.

RIP Dick Cheney, you would have loved to see the Senate refuse to vote on constraining presidential authority to wage war against fishing boats he doesn't like

Congratulations Sydney Sweeney you are the Barstool Babe of the Week

There have been 4 million articles written about the alienation of young men by "the left," but I've never seen one article about the alienation of women from the right. It apparently doesn't matter to the press that women are regularly voting for Dems by huge margins because the GOP is so hostile.

Liberals launching a different lawsuit against Ann Seltzer for giving them hope

Abdul El-Sayed should be getting more attention in the Michigan Senate race. He's anti-Zionist, pro-M4A, pro-rent control, and has an extensive union history. He would immediately become the most left-wing senator in the country next to Bernie Sanders.

The union is calling on people to boycott btw!!

Total Brandonization

Debates on the left: should we embrace Abundance or must we take on corporate power? Debates on the right: should women be allowed to work?

Can society improve by getting more racist?

We are all going to die. Global suicide

Incredible stuff

I see a lot of people mocking the report that Marjorie Taylor Greene is considering running for President and I’m here to tell you all it would be Trump 2.0 to underestimate her

This is a big deal, the opposite of Obama standing down his organizing base after 2008.

Probably because he fought against his civil rights being violated if I had to guess why that is

Zohran winning on a Tuesday and Pelosi retiring on a Thursday is pretty neat

Just a complete disappointment.

Can we fix this problem that did not happen with something that does not exist?

She's endorsed a successor, a 64-year-old up and comer known for thinking outside the box, making a fortune while at General Dynamics, owning a prison, and fighting to guarantee health care is purchasable by all.

Change in Headline

If someone on the left says "Israel is an apartheid state" the press will say that they are expressing views that are seen by many as antisemitic. But literal Holocaust denying, explicitly pro-Hitler Nick Fuentes is simply a cause of "heartburn."

Schumer literally said this his job as Senate leader is to "keep the left pro-Israel." That wasn't hyperbolic or rhetorical. That's truly what he believes his job is. It doesn't matter to him if that costs Democrats the presidency, House majority, Senate majority, or anything else.

Good summary of why pollsters whiffed in VA and NJ. TLDR: electorate looked like 2017 when pollsters assumed it would look like 2024, plus Latino turnout exploded. www.wsj.com/politics/ele...

lol

The media is rushing 300 “New York Jews worried about Mamdani antisemitism” fetch essays based on nothing but Mamdani being a Muslim meanwhile the Republican Party from top to toe has the confidence to wear nazi makeup every day knowing the press looks at it like the westworld bots seeing a polaroid

This begins by saying Zohran has a "monomaniacal obsession" with Israel which is some of the most aggressive projection I have ever read. I think about 10% of Zohran discussing Israel during the campaign was him prompting it. The other 90% was his opponents and debate moderators obsessing over it.

🟢 It’s official: former Assemblyman Michael Blake is running for Congress in NY-15, challenging Rep. Ritchie Torres. “I am ready to fight for you and lower your cost of living,” Blake writes, “while Ritchie fights for a genocide.”

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative electrek.co/2025/11/04/a...

Brava: “If I don’t file a complaint, then what message does that send to all Mexican women?” Ms. Sheinbaum said at her daily news conference, noting sexual harassment was a crime… “If this can happen to the president, what’s going to happen to all the young women & women across our country?”

The press has decided on the narrative that Trump has a mandate and his presidency is illegitimate regardless of what he does. They’re not going to let a pesky Dem blowout election change that.

“Here’s why the election results confirm my priors” punditry is so boring.

This rocks lmao

Checking in on Debra Messing

I am a Lina Khanist

I think it's maybe actually because it's not a very good show

Coons on Oct. 29: Trump is "operating outside our framework, our system, where Congress declares war." Coons today: Votes for Trump's agenda again.

I do think this is very important

There's been endless discussion about who succeeds Trump. I think this makes the most sense and is also terrifying.

Right before the holidays, the Trump administration is making sure that poor families starve and that no one can go visit their moms. 👍

The way all of these people convinced themselves that Mamdani is antisemitic is a subject far more worthy of media examination than any of the ‘groupthink on campuses!’ thinkpieces we’ve been subjected to

remember all those hot takes during the primary about how Mamdani was the candidate for rich white liberals? a "champagne socialist" ? yeah, about that

I don't know what the end game is here. However legitimate, antisemitism claims have lost their status among liberals, because groups like the ADL treat horrific murders of Jewish diplomats at the same level they treat a mayor winning with the same position on Israel that 80% of the Dem base has.

This is the purest form of reactionary identity politics because being Muslim is not even tied to a set of beliefs. We are meant to believe Muslims are bad because they are oppressive to women, anti-gay, non-pluralist, etc. But that's actually what conservative want and Zohran believes the opposite.

This is so pathetic

Okay yeah maybe not hating trans people works in NYC or NJ, but not in REAL America. Oh wait.
