WATCH — @aoc.bsky.social : “At some point we’ve gotta call these people’s B.S. for what it is. You can’t believe everything a con man is gonna tell you. We cannot live in perpetual fear of these clowns.” #TrumpShutdown

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

This is not a fight about tax credits. This is a fight over your ability to go to a pharmacy and afford your insulin. We have the chance to protect the health care of millions of Americans. We need to take it.

Speaker Johnson has let the government shut down, so you think he cares about swearing Dems in? The guy is a DJT puppet! Congrats on your AZ win!😂👏👏👏💪🏼☀️https://x.com/3chicspolitico/status/1973430343987503588?s=12

Praying for everyone impacted by this heartbreaking building collapse in the Bronx this morning. New Yorkers should follow the guidance of local law enforcement and stay clear of the area while our first responders do their jobs.

JUST IN: A U.S. citizen from Alabama who has been detained twice by ICE while working at a construction site, has filed a class action suit claiming ICE's broad warrantless arrest powers violate the constitution. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Hmmmm. What would Tom C. say? m.facebook.com/story.php?st...

In our current system, those who we trust to build affordable housing are the same people who profit from it being unaffordable. Without systemic change, this dynamic will continue as it has.

You mean the thing that progressives have recommended for 15 years? Yes, obviously we should do that, and already have been in many places. Yet, we still have a crisis of homelessness in this country. Not cuz people “don’t want to build”, but because financial incentives are contrary to this goal.

Worse, many of those units are second homes or seasonal vacation rentals, so the OP is essentially saying "we'll just take people's houses because they only use them part of the year."

Until you address the inflationary effect that corporate investment holdings have had on the housing market, you won’t succeed in actually providing affordable housing. More homes will be built, but they’ll be sold to the highest bidder, likely Blackrock.

the basic innumeracy of Left-NIMBYs drives me crazy WHY DO YOU OPPOSE BUILDING MORE HOUSING???

durbin underrated as one of the worst mcclellan democrats in the senate

we are in the near-worst case scenario in terms of how evil the Trump administration is acting (I say “near” because he hasn’t nuked anyone… yet) but the fact that he is deeply unpopular and nearly senile means we are avoiding the political worst case scenario

Voting for Zohran for mayor is just half of the job for NYC voters. The other half? Voting yes on ballot measures 2-5 to make it easier to build affordable housing.

The flew the entire military leadership in so they could see for themselves that the Secretary of Defense is a mouthbreathing dipshit and the Commander in Chief is a senile, weak old man who might keel over at any moment.

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

this shit is so cringe. Pete Hegseth took us from “speak softly and carry a big stick” to “boast drunkenly and hit your wife”

The best thing about Trump addressing the generals (I'm watching it right now) is that by the end of this speech there will be no question in any of their minds that he is batshit insane, and unworthy of their loyalty. And when push comes to shove, they will not back him.

So after over 8K complains of sexual assault in the military in 2024 alone, Unqualified Pete Hegseth declares his answer: “No more anonymous complains... no more walking on eggshells.” Just like Trump, instead of addressing the problem, he is silencing the victims.

This is an actual scandal. Trump is stealing our government and turning it into a deranged political propaganda machine

Riding that train, high on …

It’s scary to describe how insane this is right now.

Trump appears to really be struggling with the lack of audience reaction. What a low energy, meandering, incoherent dumpster fire of a speech this is

America’s military leadership has more important things to do than listen to lectures on character from an unqualified drunk who assaults women. Any soldier who was as careless as Hegseth was with war plans would be fired if not prosecuted. And everyone in that room knows it.

Meanwhile, press is getting this email

To explain: At the start of his opinion, Judge Young includes an anonymous note received by his chambers, which reads “Trump has pardons and tanks..what do you have?” Responding to the note, Young says we have our “magnificent Constitution” and “here’s how that works out in a specific case —“

1/ DEVELOPING: A journalist was rushed to New York-Presbyterian Hospital following another incident with an ICE agent at 26 Federal Plaza, an immigration court in NYC. The last I heard, he was getting X-rays for his lower back.

We must make this video the face of ICE.

Remember: Undocumented immigrants pay billions of dollars in taxes every year. They pay into government funded healthcare programs, but can't access them except in case of emergency. Emergency Medicaid spending accounted for less than 1% of total Medicaid spending in 2023.

Sending thoughts & prayers to the war-ravaged city of Portland, Oregon now under siege from attack by Antifa & other domestic terrorists. Take solace in dear leader's words: "Nothing bad can happen. It can only good happen." (and "DON'T TAKE TYLENOL"). Let the healing begin...

Straight from the horse's mouth. Trump knows damn well this shutdown is on him. He's the President—he has the power to keep the government open AND keep health care premiums from skyrocketing.

To take away funding for cancer research now, is to take away people’s hope for either a cure or better ways to detect/ treat cancer! Pumping poison into a person seems so old school, & immunotherapy was right there by top researchers to help! x.com/guardantheal...

Liquid biopsies may be the tests that find cancers earlier and possibly eliminate costly scans. At a time of such profound testing, the Trump administration cuts cancer research by over 40%! x.com/wired/status...

This is a brilliant description of the JC that he thinks he is! x.com/rosiecvec/st...

Thanks for sharing. One point of disagreement however, is the designation of Epstein as a man with ephebophiliac predilections. He was a pedophile. He raped children. Yes, his private jet was called the Lolita Express. Lolita was a 12 year old in the Nabokov novel.
