I’ve been saying exactly this. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/o...

Definitely read this.

Mamdani and Trump are both socialists after all. It's just that Mamdani is a Democratic Socialist and Trump is a National Socialist.

In England, they take away the title of Prince from those who were closely associated with Jeffrey Epstein. We should do the same here with the title of President.

Meet Yudelca Ogando! She interned as a Research & Business Development Intern at ProViZiGen in 2024 and is the Director of Operations at RUMI Scientific.

Really annoyed that the @mta.info 1 train skipped all stops on the UWS from 96-145 without making an announcement at 96. They need to inform riders!!

I feel bad for pollsters who need to search around to find people who were planning to vote for Adams to see who they’re now going to vote for.

Rather than costly and uncertain litigation, wouldn’t Kenvue, Tylenol’s maker, be far better off buying $20 million in World Liberty Financial coins to get Trump and RFK to change course and recommend Tylenol for pregnant women?

Could NYS expand its SLAPP statute to allow NYS companies sued in out-of-state courts to countersue in NYS? @mmasnick.bsky.social @micahlasher.bsky.social @bradhoylmansigal.bsky.social @dlnyclu.bsky.social

Competition for @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org!! nyti.ms/4mHPKKO

Bringing China, Russia, and India together is surely worthy of a Nobel Peace Prize for Trump, right? nyti.ms/4lSG1jC

“No, Zuckerberg wasn’t an asshole. He was worse. He was one of the most carelessly dangerous men in the history of technology who didn’t even know it. Unfortunately, he wasn’t the worst of them.” @karaswisher.bsky.social’s Burn Book is fabulous. A must read.

Wait. You mean all Trump’s tough talk about Putin and our need to arm Ukraine was just an act and now he’s caving to Putin? I’m shocked.

If Donald Trump does not want babies to starve, why did he shutter USAID?

My new article for @nyc.streetsblog.org in which I suggest that @nypdnews.bsky.social make use of @nycdot.bsky.social’s comprehensive database of “super spreaders” to focus enforcement on those drivers/vehicles most likely to kill. bit.ly/3UrehaR

Editorial note from Politico in their interview of Tucker Carlson….

Best possible way for Job Stewart to tempt fate with his spineless corporate overlords who just cancelled his friend Stephen Colbert, singing “Go fuck yourselves” with a gospel choir backing him? bit.ly/457PfT4

Perhaps the best reason to vote for Mamdani? bit.ly/4m2tB9t I'm surprised Cuomo would be that quick to leave his beloved Westchester!

Everyone should read this to see what is happening in our democracy. bit.ly/46LvmmW

I'm fascinated by NYC's database of automatic speed camera violations. Here are some creative ideas for how NYC (and especially NYPD) can use this database to save lives. bit.ly/4nKOZSk Thanks to BetaNYC’s RADAR help desk service for support with data analysis! beta.nyc/radar.

Great money saving tip on the last day of Prime Day(s) — don’t buy any shit from Amazon!!

Amazing that @consumerreports.org is sending out emails ads for Amazon (and Walmart) without even disclosing in the email that they get affiliate commissions. I thought CR was non commercial? @tarensk.bsky.social

All the cheap unneeded crap on Amazon isn’t even cheap! But it is unneeded and it is crap!! Great reporting from @juddlegum.bsky.social’s @popular.info. bit.ly/44mYZK0

Very interesting article from @jeffjarvis.bsky.social. bit.ly/4ku3nvs

Amazon’s big sale on unneeded crap is coming up, which means it’s time for every media outlet to give free advertising to one of the world’s richest companies at the expense of all the small businesses out there.

Especially with the big beautiful bill being so unpopular and destructive, why isn’t everything possible (protests, phone banking, etc) being done to stop it?

Why aren’t there massive protests on Friday against the big beautiful bill? Is it too late for them to happen? I’m thinking back to the Tea Party protests on July 4, 2009.

It’s interesting how little primary coverage is on how much of an asshole Cuomo is, and how Bloomberg, Ackman and others were willing to overlook that. They could have put their millions behind another candidate, but tried to force through an alleged repeat sexual harasser who resigned in disgrace.

“Bove stated that D.O.J. would need to consider telling the courts ‘fuck you’ and ignore any such order.” nyti.ms/4k906l3

My night’s sleep lasted longer than Trump’s ceasefire.

Pretty amazing that the Deputy Executive Director of NYC’s Board of Elections assumes that the winner of the Democratic primary will become the next mayor, especially when Cuomo and Adams are on the general election ballot regardless. bit.ly/445Opp7

We’re hiring at Princeton on AI and society, working with Arvind Narayanan or me depending on fit. I think current AI developments are all a huge deal but am very unexcited by current state of the AGI and/or AI safety discourse. Please share as you see fit. puwebp.princeton.edu/AcadHire/app...

I saw a lot of “Don’t Rank Cuomo” signs at the parade yesterday.

NYC

NYPD is up to the job!

NYC

The general counsel of one major financial firm said her anxiety grew by the day when Paul Weiss didn’t sue quickly after being hit with the order. When she heard the firm struck a deal with the White House, she said, she felt “physically ill.” on.wsj.com/44YsxOG

Almost June! @ericcarvin.bsky.social

Just $20 billion??

Someone needs to organize a clown parade in DC on June 14 as counter programming to the parade for Dear Leader’s birthday. Seems like something @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org would do?

How intelligent does Apple’s AI need to be to know that I don’t need to leave to get home for Work or “Out of Office” on Memorial Day?

On April 24, I asked our great new State Assembly Member @micahlasher.bsky.social if NYS has laws to prosecute law firms who bribe President Trump by offering pro bono support in exchange for issuing or not issuing executive orders (23:13 on video). bit.ly/3FexXKX

A true scandal. One of the biggest free speech violations of our lifetimes and yet the people who screamed about free speech on campus for the past decade were either responsible for the violation (Trump, GOP) or ran cover for it and enabled it (Bari Weiss, Fox, etc).

BREAKING: Rumeysa OZTURK must be released from detention, a federal judge ruled Friday, describing her incarceration as an egregious First Amendment violation that could chill the speech of millions.
