Not impeaching and removing every official involved with this remains one of the biggest failures of constitutional governance ever, and there is a direct line from that to where we sit today.

I knew it would take less than a day for a tiktok dj to make something.

For Democrats? Certainly. You can't be forever apologizing for "half of his supporters are deplorables" when he's making AI memes about dropping shit on you.

I've gotten this question a bunch. Of the races I was watching on my cheat sheet, here are the GOP wins: —Nassau County executive & DA —mayor of Columbia, SC —mayor of Binghamton, NY —mayor of Manchester, NH —prosecutor of Virginia Beach —a special election for NH state House note: all holds

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

Literally quoting Mario Cuomo

“The dreams we’ve dreamt together become the agenda we deliver together. New York, this power, it’s yours. This city belongs to you,” Mayor-elect Mamdani says closing his victory speech. “Thank you.”

Zohran just introduced a lot of cable news normies to Eugene Debs

NEW: California voters pass Proposition 50, which adopts a new Democratic-approved congressional map through 2030, The Associated Press reports. The new maps will take effect starting in the 2026 midterm elections. https://to.pbs.org/47z89Dh

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

What we know so far, 9:30pm —Dems flip VA-Gov & VA-LG. —BIG Dem gains in VA House —Dems win NJ-Gov —Mamdani up —Dems seem to flip 2 statewide offices in GA —JD Vance's half-brother loses in Cincy. —Dems sweep Orlando council —PA: Dem justices up big —Maine anti-mail vote measure down —Krasner wins

New statement from Chuck Schumer: “Despite not doing anything useful, and in fact being actively harmful to the process in a number of ways, I am here to take credit for other people’s hard work and risks.”

First NYC results are in: That's already 819,165 votes. Mamdani: 51.5% Cuomo: 40% Sliwa: 8%. (That's roughly 40% of the vote.)

whatever you think of Spanberger, the fact that her opponent ran a campaign based almost entirely on transphobia and is on track to eat shit in the biggest blowout the state has seen since 2009 is unambiguously a huge win

Virginia state Senator Louise Lucas (a Democrat who is the chamber's president pro tempore) just tweeted this:

From an eagle-eyed tipster: This morning, as New York City voters turn out for a historic election, Hakeem Jeffries is in...Virginia. hellgatenyc.com/election-day...

Oh and why did Cuomo run away from the progressive victories he might instead have claimed? Because he resigned in disgrace from his record of sexual harassment, and he refuses to apologize, and he knows the progressive electorate will not overlook this.

Why don’t vaccine fans love Donald Trump, the president who brought us Project Warp Speed just four short years ago? Well, because he ran against the best thing he ever could have claimed credit for to win the support of psychopaths, and now kills children with measles every day. Same kind of deal.

🤷 I mean, I’m not running Cuomo’s campaign. The reason he’s not getting credit for his progressive past is because he doesn’t want that credit. He chose his lane in the primary (big name inevitability) and in the general (won’t take no for an answer, no party loyalty, Republican-plus, bigotry).

Honestly, any actor who has not read The Method at this point should not be allowed to use the term in interviews.

Wow if only there was a book that explained what Method acting is, where it came from, and how it both reflected and transformed 20th century America. variety.com/2025/film/ne...

A few days after the presidential election one year ago, we went to Fordham Road in the Bronx. It was a little different last week.

I've lived in the Bronx a long time. I'm on Fordham Rd a lot. It's fast, busy. People going to/from work, shopping. Safe, but tough. Not a place to lounge or get in someone's way. Seeing all these people run smiling towards a politician is wild!!

She's a god tier troll

I would like for national political reporters to place a moratorium on “But what will voters in the rest of America think about New York City’s socialist mayor?” We don’t care! Red states are notably full of psycho politicians yet rarely do you see pundits asking Brooklyn people about them.

On the other site, an 18-year-old Zohran canvasser described the legendary Wallace Shawn as "the actor who plays Dr. Sturgis on Young Sheldon" which is honestly adorable

Great news. NYT The Morning is important, and Sam Sifton is absolutely the right guy for the job. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/02/w...

Carter ran with the support of the religious right, disappointed labor and is fairly described as the first neoliberal president. Comparing him to Humphrey, McGovern and LBJ doesn’t support the idea that Dems lost in 1980 because of a move left. Carter got primaried from the left!

The idea that Dems moved left between 1968 + 1980 relies on the successful GOP effort to define Carter as a “failed liberal” (abetted by his admirable post-presidency) when he governed as a conservative Dem (with a trifecta all four years!) who disappointed labor and was “the great deregulator.”

who creates the lively art and music scenes if the rent is too high? who makes cultural life? who serves you food or washes your dishes? who creates the fancy little restaurants that draw you to urban living? affordable housing is at the heart of what makes city life worthwhile.

I hate it here.

The Andrew formerly known as prince.

@zohrankmamdani is a deeply thoughtful human being and we think he would make the best NYC mayor imaginable. We feel this as New Yorkers, as Jews and as human beings who are desperate for kindness, compassion and empathy to be represented in our politics. GET OUT THE VOTE here bit.ly/4nxYXFp

New Yorkers: please vote!!!! Cuomo went all-in on racism in the final 2 weeks because he's got nothing else. And as we've seen, that's a very effective motivator.

The dream of every Muslim is simply to be treated the same as any other New Yorker. And yet, for too long, we have been told to ask for less than that, and endure hatred and bigotry in the shadows. No more.

Also, "About as many Americans like Mamdani as Chuck Schumer, despite the fact that nearly half of Americans have never heard of Mamdani" is a hell of a stat.

The post below is incredibly dishonest. You don't need a graduate degree in statistics or survey analysis to see that the most common response to Mamdani is a lack of familiarity, *not* disfavor. In fact, he is viewed less unfavorably than Newsom, AOC, Harris or Schumer.

Looks like he's more unknown than unpopular according to your poll, perhaps due to the fact he is running in a local city's race. Meanwhile every bit of national news about him is that he's a jihadist communist who's going to steal from you.

Holy shit! That motherfucker TORE DOWN THE WHITE HOUSE!

This is wild.

First, it staves off apathy, cynicism, and despair. Second, it demonstrates to those who might use violence against innocent civilians that they would be doing so against grannies, kids, neighbors. Third, it shows allies and partners that the America they need is alive.

No……..shit

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that. No phones, no staff, nothing. I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!
