Elite persuasion is wild. New York’s socialist mayor knows this is nonsense and is working to get housing starts up and this high info voter probably a huge Mamdani supporter and also has no idea about this.

on the list of problems plaguing our housing markets, private equity is pretty far down the list actually

If the USA Women’s Hockey team wants a real celebration and invite ,,, I’ll host them in Las Vegas. Do some nice dinners and shows and good times. I’m sure I can get a hotel and airline to help me out here and celebrate these women for real for real. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

A lot of people are sharing that clip of the US men's hockey team laughing about the women's team with Trump/Kash Patel. A couple weeks ago, I wrote about how, despite the Heated Rivalry effect, hockey culture still sucks: www.wired.com/story/winter...

BREAKING: A push to name one of Chicago’s snowplows “Abolish ICE,” clearly linking the humorous pun to efforts to oppose President Donald Trump’s mass deportation effort, won the city’s annual snowplow naming contest, officials announced. @wttw.bsky.social

lol, i’m not sure what the US men’s hockey team expected when they were seen parting with Kash Patel and laughing at the expense of others with Trump but yea, turning off comments for many posts is one way to handle a self induced clusterfuck www.instagram.com/team.usamens...

these should all be front and center for a certain segment of pundits who seek to pursue "popular policies" and yet

Just some of Kash Patel’s government jet joyrides: -Date nights with his girlfriend in Tennessee -A luxury hunting getaway in Texas -A golf trip in Scotland -Partying with the USA Men’s Hockey team in Milan Must be fun not doing your job on the taxpayer's dime.

thinking about how Savannah Guthrie had to cancel her trip to work the Olympics because of her mom’s kidnapping but the guy who heads up the investigative body handling the case was posting pictures of himself in the US hockey locker room today lol

JACK HUGHES 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 rode the rollercoaster to end regulation, gets the golden goal

JD Vance personally invited Pope Leo to the U.S. 250th celebration on the 4th of July. Today the Vatican announced Leo will be spending the day with migrants instead.

This morning, we were proud to celebrate the first ELURP project alongside @nycplanning.bsky.social, @nychousing.bsky.social, and DM Leila Bozorg. Thanks to @yesonaffhousing.bsky.social, this new fast-track will help mid-size housing get approved faster, cutting a 6mo process down to just 90 days.

#ThePitt has been on for seven episodes, but to me, after tonight, it’s finally back. Enjoyed the season thus far, but I feel it’s going up a level yet again.

@teamsters.bsky.social hey remember when you supported her nomination

NBC ran a piece where Mary Carrillo went to Norway to find out why they're so good at the Winter Olympics and i was yelling BECAUSE IT'S COLD THERE then she went to a little tiny ski jump for kids and was like "it's free, equipment is provided, & they don't emphasize results" and i was like. oh!

BREAKING: Former South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has been convicted of insurrection for declaring martial law in December 2024, and has been sentenced to life in prison.

Great @gelliottmorris.com piece on the importance of anti-system beliefs in shaping vote choices: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/meet-ameri...

ICE is crushing Minneapolis economy. On the pod, Mayor Jacob Frey tallies up damage: $203 million overall $80 million small biz losses $5 million hotel cancellations 75K people food insecurity "Impact is staggering," Frey tells us. Bleeding city for being diverse: newrepublic.com/article/2066...

men only want one thing and its fucking disgusting:

this is such a ghoulish thing to say i hope she fucking flops in the primary

and three, THREE, different lawsuits: 1) the developer and individuals against the city for breach of contract 2) the city against the developer for failing to build the project and 3) nonprofits against the city for violations of state housing law it is a parody of the Office standoff meme

The next US Census likely won’t be good for New York. The state is projected to lose two congressional seats, and with them, two electoral votes for president. One reason why blue states are losing ground: The red states build far more housing than they do.

an act of unspeakable disrespect

Unfortunately I *will* click on every single video of the actors who play Dunk and Egg and I *will* watch all of them many times

this guy used to be half a never trumper btw

idk what has gotten into him but this is all very good

“In less than a year, DHS has attacked the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th, 10th, 14th amendments to the US Constitution, the writ of habeas corpus, the independent judiciary, and much more,” states David Bier before the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee. Read full testimony: https://ow.ly/z2aT50Yfcri

i am actually struggling to think of something that Karen Bass has *NOT* been a failure on

actually good to see from Dem leadership

8yrs ago, if someone said “black lives matter” to me, I would’ve instantly pounced with “ALL lives matter.” Today, when someone says “black lives matter,” I respond with “you’re right, black lives DO matter.” What changed? Me. I listened. And learned.👇 open.substack.com/pub/socialco...

call me a carceral urbanist or whatever but i think that if you murder an entire family with your SUV, at the very least, you should never be allowed to drive again

for a technocrat, this is a huge letdown in Boston

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

Incredible www.instagram.com/reel/DUtTdIz...

get the kid in the brown hoodie a scholarship

nobody posted the clip anywhere so i went and dug the whole episode up

DHS to ICE agents:

(3) But the Democrat view is also bad: while it's fine for people at Princeton and Harvard to study Latin and Sanskrit, public higher education is about job training and $ ROI. There is no room for the idea that curiosity-driven inquiry is a good that should be supported by the public.

Every talking head: The Don Lemon case is a First Amendment case. Me (*screaming at the TV*): It’s a COMMERCE CLAUSE case! The Don Lemon case is a Commerce Clause case. THE DON LEMON CASE IS A COMMERCE CLAUSE CASE!!!!

Rents are declining nationwide because the United States is building more housing. www.apartmentlist.com/research/nat...

Guadalajara apartments appreciation post. Guadalajara has way better architecture than CDMX because they don’t limit the city to 4 stories nor allow a ridiculous 80% lot coverage.

A lot of residential only zoning in California traces back to anti Chinese laundry services and general anti saloon politics.

Seattle’s millionaire tax is a huge success. Here is how grassroots groups beat big money and are now raising tons of money for mixed income, rent stabilized housing. (We call it “social housing.”) www.tiktok.com/t/ZP89WjsvH/

it’s gonna get stuck in the suez canal again isn’t it
