Andrew Cuomo is a crypto grifter now: hellgatenyc.com/andrew-cuomo...

Damn. @nbcnews.com www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Mamdani also a better mayor than that guy on Amity Island.

Xitter's community notes are working overtime calling out people trying to claim Mamdani's attempts to conserve power is socialist. This one might be my favorite.

We did this. Walked over to the firehouse, they gave us a cap, an hour later they rolled by and turned the hydrant on. Within minutes, the whole block is out here cooling off in the water. Highly recommended!

This is quite the metaphor for what Trump is doing to this country

This is what an actual true patriot looks like. God bless you and protect you for your courage!

During the Progressive Era organized sports for kids were seen as a means of democratization and assimilation … for white immigrants. Organized play and playgrounds were rarely offered to Black youth. So sports have historically been used to divide, as they are being used now.

MS NOW put together a supercut of Lutnick, Bessent, and Hassett continually moving the goalposts and always saying that some future quarter will have spectacular economic growth

Today in questions for lawyers: could Lisa Cook sue Bill Pulte for defamation? thehill.com/regulation/c...

according to reactionary centrists, it is a gross injustice for the left to run third parties or to run in primaries

watching Manhattan Institute nerdlingers tell young people to pursue the trades, while every guy I know in the trades wants desperately for his kids to get white collar jobs

Make Iran more powerful?

jd vance is the only person who watched the 2015 film spotlight and decided to both convert to catholicism AND get a job covering up for a paedophile

It is really fun to live in NYC right now. The Knicks won and our mayor is basically a Disney character who just jumped into a pool with a bunch of kids and we had a ridiculously good pride and it’s hot and humid and that sucks …

This is probably not real but if it is, do it motherfucker lol. The toxic masculinity bros really do not understand how small their tribe really is

I don’t think anyone has ever missed the memo quite as badly as this guy has

A not depressing thread! I ordered some stickers for work (not from the Sticker Mule fascist whose entire aura is month old locker room socks) and added some just because I liked them. Here they are:

I have an opinion writing workshop next week and an audit-only option (where you take the workshop but without the one on one coaching / editing after) for $100 www.elizabethspiers.com/workshops/

Read @perrybaconjr.bsky.social on the false equivalence of democratic centrists who conflate fascism with folks who want education and healthcare.

This is one of the reasons why i find it hard to take Project 2029 seriously. At best, it's misguided.

this is absolutely wild. where does roberts think these agencies come from?!? who invested them with authority to act? whose mandate are they designed to execute? the president is the chief EXECUTive. his job is executing the will of Congress as it spells out in its duly-passed laws!

WATCH: “HOLY SHIT.” John Oliver reacts to Republican Gov. Desantis’ wildly obviously racist impression of @RepJeffries. (met with no condemnation by his party, largely ignored by the media)

i wish some people brought the energy they have for policing posts about the democrats to pushing the democrats to be a more effective party

"The lack of protection built into the design of TPS is the original sin: there should always have been a pathway to residency and citizenship for people who make their lives here in our communities, regardless of how they came. People’s lives should never be left up to political whim."

A good essay on some of the moral calculus for evaluating when political violence is ok.

Seen a few legacy media vids of Great American State Fair that do report on the almost surreal incompetence of it all but in doing so pan over booths promoting apocalyptic Christian nationalism without comment. Not because they’re for it! Because most reporters don’t get it.

Ruling against TPS for Haitians, the Trump justices on the Supreme Court have set a new impossible standard for proving discrimination against non-whites: if there is any other reason *in addition* to the racism, the racism doesn’t count www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

JD Vance made up a horrific and racist lie about a group of people, and now those people will be deported because the Supreme Court refuses to acknowledge, let along regard as disqualifying, the clear racial bias of this administration.

Last Year At Marienbad/This Month At The State Fair

the feds have done more to harass americans angry over good and pretti’s killings than they have to investigate them

Seems the real problem centrist democrats are facing right now is the people are being very clear that they want leaders who will solve their biggest problems, and centrist democrats really don't want to solve their biggest problems and hate the people for wanting that. It's a real pickle for them.

I’ve had bigger readings at a Barnes and Noble.

If you’re self identifying as a Democrat but saying with a straight face that DSA members hate America and the job of Dems is to support free marketism, you can just march your ass over to the GOP and be done with it

Lobbying for, say, big tobacco, or even Lockheed pales compares to this .

Oh, @espiers.bsky.social had this one fully one dead to rights too: bsky.app/profile/kelc...

He and Ellison mean no one else will have privacy. Rest assured, they will.

ICE out of Washington DC.

Absolutely. There’s a long line of youth ministers and Sunday school teachers disappointed with how I turned out in no small part because I read that thing cover to cover, critically

Well, this is fucking horrifying

This announcer looks like Ryan Gosling and Sam Rockwell had a baby. I’m sure you all know who he is but I am thinking of him going forward as Rysam Goswell.

I was on a Zoom call with advocates from Springfield and elsewhere in Ohio yesterday afternoon, and it’s absolutely horrifying and inexcusable what this administration is doing to this community and the lie that Sam Alito told to OK this.

The now 11 year old has turned into a prolific artist and I told him about the Waffle House teleportation guy and he illustrated it hilariously and now cannot pass a Waffle House without bringing up teleportation. That is this man’s legacy.

I speak from experience: this will not have the outcome they’re hoping for

Always interesting to see the childlike, reactionary ideas that come out of the mouths of prestigious legacy media figures when they are allowed to stop pretending to be neutral.

This is bullshit. PACER should be free anyway!

You absolutely need to read Elizabeth tear the arms off JD Vance's book and then use them to whack him over the head repeatedly and vigorously:
