holy shit -- one of Trump's toadies just passed out and the White House event is brought to an abrupt end

The whole of the internet is now run on the things that would have not made it past your email junk filter 20 years ago.

Cool. What would you call the other wing then? www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/u...

Ah, yes. Exactly the way they talked about food prices when Joe Biden was president. A marvel of honesty and consistency.

The day will come when anyone involved in ICE will either flip or flee to Argentina.

History will write of Mamdani and this win and it will eclipse Trump.

Trump tries to build a fake wall of inevitability around everything he does. Today, voters - literally from sea to shining sea - broke through all that, and this is just the beginning.

My takeaway from the elections yesterday is that it’s one thing to be unpopular and have a large portion of the media apparatus desperate to pretend that’s not the case but it’s another thing to be unpopular and have that be an undeniable fact

People care about the elections, who knew?

this is objectively hilarious

the first muslim woman being elected to statewide office (in any state!) the day dick cheney died is beautiful

None of what Trump is doing is popular and voters are telling us that

Fucking hell yes 🙌🎉🎉🎉

> Results from more than 800,000 mail-in and early voting ballots showed Assembly Member Zohran Mamdani leading by just under 12 points in the three-way race against disgraced former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Guardian Angels founder and perennial gadfly Curtis Sliwa.

Abigail Spanberger made history on election night as she was elected Virginia's first female governor. Full details: www.newsweek.com/virginia-ele...

as far as i can tell this is what new york is facing right now and im wishing you all the best

I continue to wonder when Americans will decide enough is enough. As Frederick Douglass reminds us: “The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.”

Happy Zohran Day to all who celebrate!!

"Hey Claude how do I lose a NYC election as fast as possible"

even when far rightwingers are having an extremely positive experience on all fronts they’re still able to hallucinate a situation where they’re the victim

In a way, I find the authoritarian takeover of our media system even more disturbing than the authoritarian takeover of our political system. Our political system has been failing basically my entire adult life. But, the media system provided accountability and sort of worked. Now it’s collapsing.

"HOW WILL ZOHRAN PAY FOR FREE BUSES" screamed the Staten Islanders who have a free ferry

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

I hope future generations recognize how quickly and strangely the contours of what counts as a political scandal changed for this president.

🤷🏼

Congratulations, Andrew Cuomo! I know how hard you worked for this.

someone invited people magazine to the kitchen and they brought their own knives

A trick Mamdani has mastered is seeming positive even when attacking Cuomo by having it come out of nowhere. You’ll watch him being asked his favorite Halloween candy and he’ll say “I love skittles haha, guilty as charged, of course not guilty of killing people in nursing homes, M&Ms are also great”

This is flat out false. SNAP cannot be used for that. It’s not permitted under federal law and no states have an exemption for it.

Evidently there was an Auschwitz-themed float in a Halloween parade in Pennsylvania. The float was for a Catholic school, and to their credit the church immediately disavowed it. Thing is, I don’t think high school kids did this entirely on their own. I’m guessing parents had to be involved.

Republicans are a fucking embarrassment.

*To make everyone think you're very rich after crippling the economy and tanking countless business over the years

It's scary how cute Park Slope was tonight. Happy Halloween, NYC.

“this mass deprivation, which we insist is bad and not our fault, is a great opportunity for us to talk about our plans for long-term mass deprivation”

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

The petty bullshit bullying keeps spewing from this vile miasma stuffed into a skin suit

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

For New Yorkers who work the night shift, it can be nearly impossible to participate in political life of our city. So tonight we’re bringing this campaign to them — starting with taxi drivers waiting at LaGuardia.

I’m not going to take the turkey out of the freezer until it’s defrosted.
