Not to mention they all voted for the guy who genuinely tried, in a moment of crisis he had engineered, to get his own vice president lynched

The West Wing?

Employment lawyer here: the number of male employers who genuinely believe they should be able to sleep with their female employees and pay working mothers less than working fathers is most of them. They genuinely believe that it is an injustice against them that they might face repercussions.

People who hate Zohran and everything he stands for: Now that Zohran has won, the most effective thing he can do is betray all of his principles

lol r u kidding me

“.. in a group Signal chat, .. he wrote in part: ‘I fired 5 rounds and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book boys.’” @reuters.com #Chicago www.reuters.com/world/us/bor...

Gore Vidal said “It’s not enough that I succeed, others must fail.” That’s how I feel about the disgraceful gutter-bigot campaign run against Mamdani and the do-you-need-to-borrow-an-Ativan freakout about him. These people spectacularly undignified.

“.. There were no counties or cities (as of writing) that moved right relative to four years ago. On average, they instead moved 13 points to the left.” @pbump.com #Virginia www.pbump.net/o/what-chang...

Thinking about the young pair my Zohran canvassing partner & I crossed paths with yesterday: they were both maybe around 20, doing sidewalk nonprofit donation work. One of them spoke at length about how inspiring she found Zohran—and then asked to shake our hands. 😭 The kids are more than all right.

I have to imagine far-right Catholics are really struggling with the fact that they can now hear this stuff in English directly from the pope.

By today, nearly 11 million SNAP participants should have received *full* benefits for November. They haven't. By Friday, this jumps to about 20 million. (estimated using state participation data and issuance schedules from USDA FNS) 🥗 🛟 🩺📊 #econsky

We were told over and over again that he would usher in a massive crime wave - instead it's been falling

THE MAJORITY of money spent by Winsome Earle-Sears and outside groups in Virginia went to anti-trans ads. The GOP needs a new playbook after tonight. Voters are tired of this song.

america yesterday

"…(Mamdani) has attended Friday prayers, Diwali celebrations in Queens, Baptist church services in Harlem and Sukkot observances in Hasidic Williamsburg." … "On the final Friday before Election Day, volunteers from the campaign and other organizations canvassed at 210 of the city’s 300 mosques…"

🤔

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

This is the kind of thing which makes me think better things are possible.

I like how Krasner winning an almost unprecedented third term as Philly DA by stomping the walrus mustached city court judge who quit the bench to try to take him out first in the primary and again as a Republican in the general isn’t even folded into the national Dem sweep coverage.

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

After 13 years, Mississippi Democrats have broken the Republican Party’s supermajority in the Mississippi Senate. Democrats flipped two GOP-held Senate seats and one House seat in the special elections. buff.ly/nTvLlFI

The dumb thing about the eric adams "future of the dem party" takes wasn't that it was *eric adams* it was that all those pundits would not normally see the close winner of a 5way dem primary in new york city as a sign of what america is demanding (and they will not with zohran,mostly correctly)

Trump: "Hear me, President Trump, when I say this: to get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us."

Pretty, pretty good

for a muslim american to become mayor of new york city on the same day that dick cheney died... sometimes the purple prose for future dadbook histories of The American Experiment just writes itself.

New York City's now got a mayor-elect who just quoted Eugene V. Debs within the first few words of his very first speech after winning the election

i wouldn't be a total glenn youngkin hater if i didn't mention that the results tonight mean that his total tenure amounted to presiding over the destruction — at least for the next few years — of the virginia republican party. lmao.

Specifically, the fear of God comes from GOP uncertainty with rejiggering maps after Virginia turned into practically a supermajority state overnight. You might redistrict yourself right out of a job

Such a pure hater, and yet such a lackluster comptroller

Play it again, Sam

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.

I’m very superstitious of election night, but not today.

More people voted in New York City’s election this year than they have in 50 years. That’s a win for democracy, and a testament to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's inspiring campaign. Congratulations to the next mayor of the greatest city in the world. 🗽

i guess we will never know if they were ICE or not

Bill Ackman gotta be on the third draft of a tweet longer than Middlemarch right now

Feels like they’ve lost their fastball

Also when we *checks notes* don’t exactly come together

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

Bill Ackman to *holds earpiece* continue living in Chappaqua.

One of my friends made a twitter list of people to check back in on after Zohran won, and the crash outs are already beautiful

The East Village is hootin and hollerin

From this day forth, Dave Portnoy can never return to the five boroughs.

Hot diggety dog

Burry’s Palantir trade is roughly an order of magnitude bigger—and more interesting imo—than the Nvidia puts.

Incredibly funny to watch the right wing going Oh so just because I love money and hate poor people I'm a bad Christian according to "the pope"???
