Jews are targeted in shuls & online. Brown & Black people are abducted and sent to concentration camps. Muslims are openly targeted by politicians. Activists & journalists are targeted by the FBI. Trans & queer people are being outlawed. We are in this together. This is why solidarity matters.

I wonder why the student protesters who spent months being beaten and harassed by law enforcement, often at the direction of Democratic politicians, didn't see the Democrats as a potential ally. Rally sick of this self-serving argument from reactionary liberals (yes, that's exactly what they are).

LBJ would've entered a chili eating contest, then he would have licked the DOGE douches in the men's room with him to chew them out while taking the grossest dump of his life.

"Most moral military in the world"

One of my favorite jokes..... They say young people become obsessed with either "Atlas Shrugged" or "Lord of the Rings." One is a fantasy that may cripple your ability to deal with reality, and the other is about orcs.

If you are big on oversimplified, monocausal analysis, you could do a lot worse than "US society is a nightmare because of the dominance of Calvinist thought."

I recently did my fantasy baseball draft via email and the Google AI summaries of our draft thread were ridiculous. My favorite was it constantly summarized "____ is on the clock" as "___ passed the clock to ___."

The conspicupus racism is intesifying because guys like Fine and Ogles are so pissed that Trump likes the Muslim democratic socialist Mayor of NYC that he does them.

Finding out in college that an older guy who I had been an alter boy with was abused by our priest, became a himself, and then became an abuser himself. The poisonous cycle of abuse in the Catholic Church is very real.

I love how right wing American Christianity has basically become “What if we did The Bible, but only the parts where we get to stone people we don’t like?”

Actually, it isn't. If there is a group who should be stripped of their right to political participation in the US, it is evangelicals. At this point, they are an apocalyptic death cult actively trying to bring about the end of days, and people with that worldview don't deserve to participate.

Paternal grandfather left the army and eventually became an accountant for the American Bureau of Shipping. Maternal grandfather left the army and worked as a carpenter and a public parks manager in Nassau County.

Remember when NYC's proposed "soda tax" was considered the height of freedom-hating pinko bullshit by American conservatives? Yeah, neither do they.

New York should ignore this opinion, dare the GOP to not seat their delegation next year, then rally every other blue state to their cause.

That goal is proof that even God is a Matthew Schaefer fan

Just got home from watching St. John's thump Villanova and there are few things better than Big East basketball at the Garden.

Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.

While Republicans fully support Trump's war with Iran, Democratic leaders do not oppose it. There is no effective opposition. Hakeem Jeffries is merely demanding that the administration "must explain itself to the American people and Congress" and "provide an ironclad justification."

Ladies and gentleman, the dumbest man on the planet. I long for the day when this "moderate" dweeb fucks off forever with his mealy-mouthed bullshit.

i don't know what it is. the moral arc of the fourth estate probably bends towards propaganda.

If this is what Schumer sees as his primary responsibility despite having a front row seat to the collapse of American democracy, he needs to be kicked to the curb. This is just a stunning thing to say at this moment.

Trump knows he is dying and is obsessed with legacy. Mamdani has capital improvement goals in NYC. He promises to slap Trump's name on everything, builds affordable housing with federal money Trump throws at him, and then renames everything the second Trump kicks it and MAGA commits suicide.

UPDATE: Manhattan Borough President Brad Hoylman-Sigal says that "ICE used a phony missing persons bulletin for a 5 year old girl," to lie and get into a Columbia residential building and detain a student. "It is unconfirmed at this time whether they impersonated an officer to do so," he adds.

I wrote this comic 2 years ago. I was terrified when I wrote it but had hope it wouldn't come to pass and would be a reminder of how bad things got before we pulled back. It not only has, it has gotten even worse. This is absolutely terrifying and will destroy lives if passed.

I know it is an insignificant issue in the Ellison takeover of WB Discovery, but I just know this is gonna ruin the James Gunn DCU, which had me anticipating superhero content for first time since Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy.

This is framed as “Manhattan DA drops assault charge,” but in fact there never was an assault charge. There was an NYPD press release accusing this man of assault. But that’s a lot like me tweeting that someone committed assault, in that it’s an allegation but not a criminal charge.

I need to get back in the gym, as there will soon be an influx of inbred Afrikaner neo-nazis in need of punching.

I just know my GI reaches for bottle every time one of these grifters screeches about the "microbiome"

I am so sick of this. A) You need ID to register to vote. B) You have to check in at the proper polling site and provide your name, which is when checked against the roll, before you get a ballot.

The era of the 21st Century American Filibuster (or Freebooter, dealer's choice) is gonna be so dumb.

Rest in peace, Nurul Shah Alam. His blood is on border patrol's hands. www.wivb.com/news/local-n...

This is "we're just smol beans" crap from the SBA is so pathetic that it actually has me nostalgic for Ed Mullins. Ed's response to the Washington Sq. Park Snowball Massacre of '26 would have been a series of unhinged tweets about how he was gonna kill ever NYC teen he saw with his bare hands.

They found him. He died. Another murder by our immigration goon squads

some of the olympic women including maddie mastro have been reposting this if you’re curious about the vibe in response to the US men’s little display

Gen Z is reviving DVDs and Blu-rays, with local video rental shops reporting record months and membership numbers as young people embrace physical media. Read more: www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

They showed up to this fascist rally and allowed themselves to be used as political props. No career-ending injury they could from from here out would be gruesome enough.

This makes me viscerally angry and I probably should log off before I start posting actionable threats against elected Republicans.

BROOKLYN ICE IN CLINTON HILL NYPD ASSISTING LET PEOPLE KNOW

Can't wait for Tom Suozzi's collaborator ass to take issue with this.

When you remember that the NYPD views itself as being at war with the communities it claims to protect, this makes total sense. Also not gonna do a thing to stop New Yorkers from calling them bitch ass cowards who need to get a real job.

This is why I think Zohran trying to split the baby with his response was a huge mistake. These assholes will act like he ignored a violent assault on a LEO simply because he didn't call for the blood of teenagers throwing snowballs.

Not a Chapo fan, this segment on the relationship between Paradox games - specifically the molding community - a conservative thought is interesting. I play Paradox games and the related communities run the gamut on ideology. But mods like TNO are just fashy wet dreams. youtu.be/pVE22K5m4_4?...

No more cheering the Hughes brothers. They are just semi-literate Tkachuks

Bad look, Zohran...

Mamdani firing Tisch would also trigger a meltdown by her best Matt Yglesias, which would be amazing.

@mayor.nyc.gov So when can we expect Jessica Tisch's firing?

You think "the online left" is unhinged, dog please talk to an independent voter IRL. They want universal healthcare and abolish taxes. They want to dissolve the coast guard. They want to rename the army the coast guard. They want their alien implants removed, and they also want more alien implants

Alright, been working from home since 8:30. Time to dig out my car so I can work in the office tomorrow.

Shapiro is a massive bigot and electing Dems like him does nothing for this country's fight against facism.

And the gold medal has already been ruined for me
