this is what will happen if mamdani makes bus rides free

Early voting in the NYC mayoral election begins TODAY. If you're a New Yorker, I urge you to vote for Zohran Mamdani — the only candidate who will stand up to the oligarchy and fight for working people. Listen to his inspiring words from primary night.

NC House Rep. Rodney Pierce is a perfect example of the difference authentic representation makes. In 2024, Rep. Pierce knocked out a sleazy and corrupt 10-term incumbent, and now the people of northeast NC have a voice in the North Carolina legislature responding to attempts to rig our elections.

Trump on demolishing the East Wing: "After really a tremendous amount of study with some of the best architects in the world, we determined that really knocking it down, trying to use a little section. The East Wing was not much. There was not much left from the original."

“We found over 35 cases in which the judges have specifically said what the government is providing…false information. It might be intentionally false information, including false sworn declarations time and again," says Ryan Goodman, law professor at New York University.

Never ask if you’re alone in your outrage. You’re not. #NoKings

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

This really is a GREAT sign!

And now off to a zombie fest in Milton

Unfortunately my camera had some difficulty focusing on the speakers, but you can still hear their message and the crowd cheering. I'll upload more later. Unfortunately I was in a lot of pain today so I didn't get that many pics or video. #nokings #nokingsday #nokingssussexcounty

I’ve seen a lot of people advising sitting down. As a mobility impaired person who attends rallies and sign waves do NOT do this. It makes it much harder for people like me to quickly move to safety.

The Department of Justice just requested an emergency stay from the Supreme Court allowing Trump to deploy National Guard troops in Chicago, something lower courts have blocked as unlawful and unjustified. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

It's absurd that in a modern city, our buses crawl at less than 5 mph. We'll make them fast and free.

As problematic as can be Newsom , I'm glad to see an asl interpreter especially given how my day is going #disability #inclusivity

I am fucking furious. I just got notified this morning of a change where my No Kings Rally was to be held. It's being moved to a place where they don't know if it's ADA compliant. With less than 2 days until the rally, I don't have time to haul my own ass down there to see. Changing the location

Andrew, we're voting you off the island and back to the suburbs. Our new ad just aired during Survivor.

JD Vance’s unwillingness to condemn the Nazi GOP groupchat provides the press corps yet another opportunity to probe his personal associations, and take note of how the whole administration exists to please them and make sadistic content go viral. www.offmessage.net/p/governing-...

ICYMI: “And now, a response from the leader of the frog resistance...” 🐸 🎵 #Colbert

Department of Homeland Security's Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin claims this video is actually from a burglary arrest from a year ago. Meanwhile the local pd put out a statement that essentially yes, this is ICE. Interesting how ICE seems to be targeted teens. #abolishICE

The Election Assistance Commission (EAC) is considering a rule that would force voters to present a passport or birth certificate to register to vote. 𝟮𝟭 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗰𝘂𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝘃𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲. Stop this by clicking and commenting your opposition to voter suppression.

"It seems like a they are buttressing and fortifying the facility and that is not a good sign." Yeah better protect that facility from (checks notes) giant inflatable chickens.

By the end of this week it will be ONE MONTH since Speaker Johnson and the House of Representatices have been in session. They are MISSING IN ACTION while the government in shut down, millions of Americans will loose their Healthcare + Johnson doesn't want to seat Grajalva because of Epstein files.

Man, I fucking hate ICE.

Yet again a « concept of a plan » isn’t going to help the millions of americans who need affordable healthcare. #healthcareisahumanright

That’s an awful lot of scare quotes for people lying down. #abolishice

The Wall Street Journal reports that Ghislaine Maxwell had a meeting with an unknown person in her new prison camp, during which the entire prison was on lockdown. Inmates say she's getting unusually favorable treatment by the prison.

According to @aaronparnas.bsky.social " The Trump administration reversed layoffs for some CDC employees after a system glitch mistakenly issued termination notices during the ongoing government shutdown." Sure a "computer glitch" and not, yet again, a "crap this is more unpopular than we thought!"

Portland continues to amaze me 👏

THIS is what it’s all about… #RepublicanShutDown

Virginia... Please do not fuck this up, like 165M mofos did in 2024. Pleaseeeeeeee.

A fantastic breakdown of why this case has been doomed from the start

Happy #Caturday!

If you haven't already, now is the time talk to your doctor about getting tested to find out if you need a measles booster. There are multiple outbreaks in this country, and it's only going to get worse as more members of the CDC are being fired right at this moment. #measles #vaccines #healthcare

Bluesky reminds me of why I didn't like Twitter even before the nazis took over. It's like yodeling into the abyss. It makes me feel more alone and less heard amazingly.
