Walking into the 250th Marine Corps Birthday Ball like

sometimes an Oxford comma can make all the difference

Mamdani's hero is LaGuardia. He just mentioned him again. And I maintain he has more in common with New Dealers than socialists. But you can't responsibly write about him without writing about the Milwaukee "sewer socialists" of 1910-60. Nothing he says is new, only the applications.

All weekend…

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

This isn’t even a good burn

There are ledes on the news every night in the tristate area about people concerned anti-Semitism will grow in NYC with Mamdani as mayor

The other thing no one wants to tell you is that all the tolls and fares on New York City public works were meant to be in place only as long as it took to pay off the municipal bonds that were sold to finance them. Then they were going to a free service for the city…

New York City already had a socialist mayor and he was so popular they named like *the* airport after him

What…what is happening.

Women in particular have not missed the misogyny of all this, nor the “well ok this guy had to resign as governor because of some bad stuff with women but he’s ok now right?” They made people ask “really there’s no one else?” Low and behold there was someone else /2

Text from a friend:

Boston College mentioned

Pre-arranging a government bailout is wild work

It’s hard to believe but there was a cartoon about an immigrant mouse and it was seen as totally fine and not controversial and not woke because it was an aspirational and nice thing about America that people could come here and find a better life

Part of the ceremony of the Marine Corps Birthday is the cutting of the cake. Oldest and youngest Marines present are responsible. Guadalcanal, ca. 1942. #USMC250

Bill Ackman gotta be on the third draft of a tweet longer than Middlemarch right now

Started ➡️ going

Mamdani has won more votes than there are people in South Dakota.

THEY'RE PLAYING NOT LIKE US AT THE MAMDANI CAMPAIGN RALLY

Wasn't this the one that was supposed to be close?

Are these guys okay?

Half of barstool is already in Chicago…

This is the latest Shawn Ryan episode

The framing of this is hilarious: Democrats deeply worried about the repercussions of a victory www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/m...

The future of the party is running good candidates that can win where they are running but that’s boring, so we will continue to be inundated with takes about representative ideology that tell us nothing, just as the pundit gods intended.

Took me 25 minutes to drive two blocks in my New England neighborhood because the streets were so full of kids and families.

This just hits too on the nose

I cannot stop laughing about mini-Mao at the Nantucket Halloween parade

To the kid I saw trick-or-treating in an accurate, rigger-modified M1942 jumpsuit: you are seen, you are appreciated, and I hope you have better luck with your West Point application than I did.

"go to TikTok. See for yourself."

Like between this coat and the buck knife how does he possibly expect me to take him seriously

Bovino is definitely going to use Halloween to go after families by the way

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

I am on a conference call for work. My boss will be speaking during it. Later today, my boss will ask me if I listened and how they sounded. I am also on the train and about to go underground 🙃

What in the world

It’s not law enforcement. It’s a deputized partisan militia.

I come back to this a lot. I don’t think he ever really wanted to be President in 2016. He just wanted the publicity. And then in 2020, he couldn’t believe he lost and so that’s why he ran again in 2024 and keeps telling us he actually won in 2020 too.

I really think they think the food stamp thing is going to blow back on the Democrats

Dude WHAT

This guy is such a fucking dork

Zohran Mandan referred to Andrew Cuomo as “habibi,” but reporting has determined he does not in fact love him.
