Not a criticism of Mamdani in particular, but as long as we allow massively funded, heavily armed right-wing paramilitaries to have veto power over every aspect of public policy, it will be impossible to enact even the most basic social democratic reforms that a lot of liberals say they want.

The dress is wearing her and she’s too pale for this red tbh which is a shame bc beautiful gown

Racist clown Jake Lang punched while leading an islamophobic hate march through Dearborn, Michigan.

The rig lmaooooooooooooo good for her though

We updated this story to add that DHS acknowledges at least 4 of the Venezuelans detained in raid are a low public safety risk. A judge the. ordered them released. We were about to publish a story about this… then an appeals court stayed order. The men will remain in detention or may be deported

Watch our reporter Lizzie Presser discuss Tierra Walker's story on @msnowreports.bsky.social: “What I want to be clear about is that this isn’t a bug in these [abortion ban] laws, this is a feature ... Anti-abortion activists have fought hard to keep health exceptions outside of these laws.”

CBP agent who threatened to shoot people on the street in Illinois.

unless they protest against genocide then they can be fed directly to the NYPD

like sorry but youll have to do better than keeping ita segev and the HRC types happy bc youve made decisions that actively endanger trans lives

setting aside the absurdity that the NYPD is capable of being on anyone's side but capital, what is worth getting 'done' with acceptance genocide and protestor abuse as a price? whay citu policies are worth the livrs of Palestinians?? what a wild breeze-over

he is keeping and praising Tisch as NYPD commish, who is an ADL fave and authorized the crackdowns at Columbia, et al and got started survelling mosques and as a bonus, personally attended a DSA meeting to head off a primary challenge <from the left> to Jeffries (obv another geno supporter) farty

🚨A newly uncovered document flagged last week in a federal court filing threatens undocumented immigrant children in government custody with “prolonged” detention if they choose to exercise their legal rights rather than voluntarily depart the United States. www.huffpost.com/entry/docume...

crazy thing to say after you've re-appointed a far right zionist as nypd commissioner who's absolutely going to try to reinstate the walking-while-trans law and has lead a bloodthirsty campaign against bail reform and sex workers

Cuellar, Golden, Gottheimer, Gluesenkamp-Perez,& Suozzi walk into a bar. The bar is in hell, where they will all be one day.

Dems who voted to repeal DC's law that creates a board to review police misconduct and prevents hiring police with history of misconduct: -Cullar -Davis -Gillen -Golden -Goodlander -Gottheimer -Gray -Kaptur -Lee -Min -Panetta -Pappas -MGP -Riley -Ryan -Schrier -Sorensen -Suozzi -Vindman -Whitesides

idc if im being facetous to insist that jeffries must keep his seat is to insists that he must become speaker of the house

everyone's acting like zohran didn't already re-appoint eric adams' favorite israeli government associate jessica tisch as nypd commissioner and that it has totally nothing to do with his endorsement of hakeem jeffries (top donor:AIPAC) for speaker of the house

This is the third major mistake Mamdani has made. *Jeffries will never be on your side and you should support a rock or a Republican over him*. Coddling your enemies never ever works. Run Jeffries out of town.

no but you see, the cool-headed and pragmatic thing to do is to support a guy who wouldn't even say your name for most of the race and is failing the entire country at a pivotal time

youre supposed to wait for the heel turn until after you actually start

DC absolutely needs statehood so that the people who live there aren't ruled by goons they never elected. A genuine ongoing scandal and absolute betrayal of the principles of the country.

doesnt nvidia also make ai for military drones? im sure the wars trump is trying to start in latin america bolster nvidia's earnings

i think disarming the state doing the genocide would work better than disarming the victims, but just what i think

am i supposed to believe that hakeem jeffries isnt over the moon that zohran mamdani is using the most popularity he might ever have to effectively campaign for jeffries's re-election? am i to believe netanyahu isnt ctfu somewhere watching zohran stifle his own base before even taking office?

& ALSO billionaire spent millions trying to stop zohran and besmirch the DSA but it’s conspirational to consider that they have infiltrators pushing the org to the right & toward liberal Zionism? That’s the whole point of Open New York’s existence!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also the same ppl defending this have gone to war to defend AOC every single time she does some slimey right wing bs so with what legitimacy do they get to say that he’s doing this for the benefit of socialism? AOC has various dead movements in her COINTELPRO portfolio bc of these very ppl’s help

Fucking crazy this guy of all people is doing this. After winning probably the biggest upset ever against Cuomo TWICE, and after Democratic leadership reaches record lows on popularity, you're gonna turn around defend these crooks...

So it’s okay for zohran to “play ball” and “do politics” but when I say the game he’s playing is counterinsurgency on behalf of the the dem establishment, including AIPAC, I’m wrong? Why is the Zionist part of his “fragile coalition” more important than the side chi represents? Fuckery is afoot

Damn one thing is to campaign against chi in the media but to show up to oppose him in person... no explanation for it other than he’s made Jeffries a promise like don’t you have more important things going on? . If he’s trying to “do politics” he’s deff doing some, but not for the left benefit

"Where is Gavin Newsom?" The state & local Democratic Party are complicit. Newsom & Karen Bass send the police after protesters & community members.

Crazy thing to say for a woman whose husband is going to kneecap AOC in 2028 on behalf of Gavin Newsom (& Israel)

one thing about this is that in the wake of all of this kirk is basically forgotten. he was barely cold in the ground before his allies — before his *wife* — started scheming over what they could take for themselves. a real life parable.

hall monitor ass repoting

Hakeem Won’t endorse or even utter the name of New York Cities new mayor because he is Muslim but Hakeem will try to fellate a literal white supremacism who helped attempt an insurrection. These democrats are fundamentally dangerous people and must be removed from power in any capacity.

also has anyone considered that zohran has the political instincts of elizabeth warren more than bernie sanders and will probably fuck up his own affordability agenda by trying to get the nyt opinion section to love him?

"please dont primary hakeem jeffries or else benjamin netanyahu is going to be mad at zohran mamdani :( "- Ball knowers

the left anywhere else in the world: "we need a coalition to invade Israel and liberate Palestine" the American Left™: "Israel has the right to exist please dont make it my responsibility to get their influence out of the right wing capitalist party im loyal to :( "

kind of like how both bernie sanders and elizabeth warren encouraged trump's coup in bolivia in 2019

i just know theres some smc ppl hoping trump invades venezuela and slaughters innocents so that AOC can use the reaction to bolster her presidential run

fuck your lil counterinsurgency org and your lil counterinsurgency friend group yall are the feds and I WILL ABSOLUTELY die on that hill

translation: "one of my friends is interviewing for jeffries' office and i really dont think we should fuck that up for them"

the numbers say we need to be cowards and let one of the most committed right wing genociders in a deep blue district become speaker of the house and support israel till he retires at the age of 96

michael lang's nerdy lib self can suck my ass btw. knowing some math is not the only part of political wisdom

future AOC 2028™ Field Leads™ & Phone Bankers™ have some audacity calling anyone an opportunist lmao

also you are absolutely smoking tusi+crack+meth all at once if you think hakeem jeffries will inspire the masses to make him speaker of the house. if i was an electoralist lib i would want jeffries unseated & replaced ASAP. his loyalty to AIPAC is the only thing keeping him house leader....

& hakeem jeffries's popularity in his district is a result of him not being challenged in forever but when you put him on the defensive he squirms and his total lack of vision jumps out. the man cannot inspire michael phelps to swim a lap. whats he gonna say? "im Black and from BK"? so is Chi

why would anyone want to trust dsa if the perception is that they threw one of zohran's biggest ambassadors under the bus to stay on hakeem "what leverage do we have?" jeffries' good side? you think ppl will care about "playing ball" when jeffries inevitably lets trump withhold funds from NYC?

ppl in chi osse's ig are like "oh you just joined DSA bc you are running for office OPPORTUNIST" and its so funny to see that kind of comment buried by a bunch of "run chi run" comments like nobody gaf about your org!!!!!! not to mention zohran's poised to throw your org to the trash bin eventually

dsa libs have their friends win one election and they swear they get to claim ownership over the entire city's left. a lot of leftists do not give a fuck about yalls org and will support chi osse anyway so what do you think you look like rn other than simping for Jeffries??

"uwuwuwuw we need to protect jeffries' seat or else the establishment will try to block zohran's agenda just like they said they will since his first day of candidacy" is just not going to sell
