Thing is, when Mamdani does something early next year that challenges some Trump admin nonsense, you *know* that Trump is going be extra angry and suggest it's a backstabbing, noting how "nice" he was to him in the Oval Office as if that means Mamdani should now agree to all of Trump's demands.

Huge victory for Zohran Mamdani in the Oval Office. He stuck to his guns, spoke about affordability, proudly declared himself a Democratic Socialist, condemned genocide in Gaza, did not back down from calling Trump a “fascist,” and still got Trump to praise him, undermining months of GOP attacks.

some people would think I’m like a dracula, you know capital. dead labour is all it is, surplus labour I like to call it dead labour, but yes I have fed off the blood of the working class. more than most probably.

I hope everyone enjoys the sequel to a movie based on a musical based on a book based on a movie based on a book!

Hey cool. Let’s go scorched Earth on this. This means socialism for absolutely no one, including giant mega corporations who receive free money…er…I mean “bailouts” when their businesses fail. This also means no money for company’s that go tits up over AI when that eventually implodes on itself.

But did you know, our Wizard of Oz collection comprises around 800 volumes, of which above is just a snippet?! We love these text illustrations by W.W. Denslow for “The New Wizard of Oz”, L. Frank Baum. 🧙‍♀️ 🪄 🧹

I voted to recommend Chi Ossé for a DSA endorsement for Congress. If you want Zohran’s city agenda to pass and succeed, then you need to knock out one of the Left’s biggest haters at the top. We won’t get another chance anytime soon.

One of the themes of our new police state is the sheer lack of professionalism. They can't do the basics, and when challenged, double down. A dysfunctional organizational culture deeply suspicious of the society they are tasked with controlling. bsky.app/profile/radl...

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Americans are so used to the idea of dropping bombs on other countries that here you're just arguing for intersectional imperialism instead of, you know, no bombs

When the GOP calls every social safety net measure “socialism,” votes like this matter in a policy context. House Minority Leader Jeffries voting with the GOP in favor of this resolution is showing his ultra-wealthy donors exactly who he fights for. It’s not the people.

so cool 🤓🤩🤓🤩

4 senior House Dems — Hakeem Jeffries, Katherine Clark, Pete Aguilar, & Ted Lieu — voted for a Republican-led resolution to “CONDEMN SOCIALISM,” a symbolic measure that passed the chamber on Wed.

NEW: Israel said Fri. its forces “eliminated” 6 Palestinians and seized 5 others in east. Rafah after what it describes as around 15 men emerging from “underground… infrastructure” east of the yellow line. The military provided no evidence for the claim & no details showing the men were armed...

🚨 BREAKING: Families woke up Thu. to find themselves suddenly on the wrong side of Gaza’s “yellow line” as Israel pushed the boundary about 300m further west during a tank incursion in eastern Gaza City. The physical blocks were shifted in Tuffah and Shujaiya, Abd Sabbah (X: @AbdSabbah91) reports...

I’m waiting to hear how John Roberts explains how calling for a legislator’s death falls into a president’s official duties.

Remarkable: Rep Chrissy Houlahan, one of the Dems that Trump called for executing, tells me her office literally filled out a Capitol Police threat report that listed "the president" as the person making the threat. It's at 9:20 on our pod. Much more like that here: newrepublic.com/article/2034...

Ohhhhh.

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

You ever just sit down and realize that the rise of 21st century fascism is capital's answer to climate change?

First Democratic member of the Senate to attack Greenblatt in public?

Corporations are one of the worst fictions in our World. Whenever a corporation does something evil, real flesh and blood people made that decision. These people should be held accountable. When a corporation murders tens of thousands of people, the people who made that decision should go to prison.

agood thing about Mamdani however his tenure as mayor ends up- he shows you can win elections promoting socialist policies Democratic politicians generally refuse to excite voters, running campaigns of Managed Expectations geared toward not spooking donors, to their electoral detriment
