An important message to the people of New York City. More information at zohranfornyc.com/birthday

Every time a Democrat gets caught on tape saying like “Some Trump voters are racist” we have a national scandal and JD Vance demands an entirely new kind of apology and meanwhile every Republican group chat is like “Good morning fellow SS members. Who’s ready to respect Hitler today?”

This really makes it sound like a Border Patrol agent tried to kill an anti-ICE activist in Chicago and DHS lied to cover for him

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

i wonder what it’s like to look around every day and see the country being run into the ground by pill-poppers and secret police and anti-vaxxers and book burners and you go into work and sit down at your computer and you’re the guy whose job it is to come up with new oreos flavors

not true

AOC: We should be clear about who Charlie Kirk was. A man who believed that the civil rights act that granted black Americans the right to vote was a mistake… His rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.

the kimmel thing is bad but as long as they arent rounding people up indiscriminately based on race, building concentration camps and talking about eradicating those they deem sexual deviants, i think we’ll be ok

must be something wrong with my internet, I just woke up and tried to find the massive Democratic party pushback to all these attacks on the first amendment and nothing's coming up in my browser

"We have to cancel kristallnacht 2.0 because the guy was one of the people we were grooming to take part in it" is a heck of a twist to be sure

you could write an entire book about this post and I will for the right price

it really is astonishing how quickly it goes from “civil war” and “blood in the streets” to “wow guys it’s just a sad tragedy” when it becomes inconvenient

Liberals are doing the right’s job for it. By lionizing Charlie Kirk and refusing to acknowledge his real political project, they’re giving power to the right’s completely predictable effort to use his death to forward their goal of an authoritarian, fascist state.

i think anyone saying he practiced politics the right way or that we should continue his work should first have to read out loud his last days worth of posts to someone they love who doesnt know who he is

idk man if I had just lost my kid to a school shooting and the news cycle was dominated by people loudly mourning the loss of a guy whose life’s work was radicalizing people, largely children, into thinking that’s a cool and normal thing to do while contributing nothing else, I’d probably go insane

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory? Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

George Floyd was a father too and Charlie Kirk called him a “scumbag.”

“I strongly condemn this incident that I have devoted myself to facilitating. It is an unacceptable tragedy, and I will continue to do absolutely nothing to prevent future similar events.”

This explains it better than I can

Will be interesting to see which news outlets omit his years of violent white nationalism. I'm guessing practically every single one.

It’s gonna be so weird watching establishment dems be performatively sadder about this than they were about the colleague and her husband and dog who got shot and killed

"I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights" - Charlie Kirk, 2023 www.mediamatters.org/charlie-kirk...

it’s hard to talk politics anymore because the natural response to everything is “oh they should be killed” but you’re not allowed to say it. it’s more illegal than open pedophilia

Does anyone know what happened between May and August this year?

Leading global experts just confirmed what we’ve long known: Gaza is in famine. At least half a million Palestinians are facing starvation, acute malnutrition and death. And it’s likely to spread. The U.S. government is not a bystander to this genocide. We can end it today.

James Dobson dying is a staring into the middle distance type of event. You have likely directly suffered bc of him. Few have done more to harm humanity at large in the past few decades. A principal architect of our current nightmare. No redeeming aspect. He was a rat made entirely out of plague.

Centrists can't really understand things like "caring about others" or "integrity," and that's why they freak out when confronted by people who exhibit those traits.

110% tax on all income over $200k

this is one of the worst crimes in human history and the entire global north and all of us in it share the responsibility

Turns out that NPR and PBS' pandering to the right still didn't save their funding. Maybe there's a lesson here for media that think that tilting to the right will spare them from accusations of "liberal bias."

If a single image could encapsulate all right wing politics

“Climate change will manifest as a series of disasters viewed through phones with footage that gets closer and closer to where you live until you're the one filming it.”

Cuomo: I am now running on affordability. Also Cuomo: there is no “real answer” on affordability.

While Andrew Cuomo and Eric Adams trip over each other to win the approval of billionaires in backrooms, our campaign remains focused on working New Yorkers and their clear desire for a different kind of politics.

Brutal

The United States summed up in two headlines.

four years of falling behind on this tech is going to make us such a backwater, man

it’s going to be so funny when he is primaried and loses to someone endorsed by DSA

this is the best single-image encapsulation of how modern conservatism works

Everyone loves this mf he's a rockstar to the people. no wonder the Democratic Party and the NYT hate him. He's having fun and he's likeable, two things they absolutely can't relate to in any way

This is why Hakeem and Gillibrand and the party line Dems and consultants hate Zohran. They say they want a "Joe Rogan of the left" and it's clear that the Dems do not need that at all. Zohran fucks up the whole grift game. He's pulling back the curtain and they're scared shitless.

If you listen to the actual audio, it's very clear that she didn't misspeak. She was told she was wrong, but she refused to listen and continued to double and triple down. The least she can do is apologize and endorse the Democratic nominee even though he's Muslim. Whether she will is unclear.

Ah, the ol' "My massively Islamophobic rant was just me misspeaking" defense

“you come up with a mean nickname to call this guy on TV?” “sure did boss, real fuckin sexy just like you asked”

Always loved the people who are like, "But my ancestors came here the legal way!" and by that they mean they arrived via ratship to an island, a man asked them their name, they were like, "Uh, Jeff... Smith?" another guy said "sure?" and then they became permanent residents of the United States.

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done. My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it. I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.
