Zohran Mamdani doing the Mr. Rogers intro but he comes home and changes from one suit into a second, identical suit.

I love everything @mayor.nyc.gov is doing in NYC. If you need to hear something to brighten your day - watch this. Just like @jesscraven101.bsky.social , I LOVE his line - you have given stability to NYC, it is time it gives stability back to you. He just gets it. Every city & town needs a Mamdani!

mamdani balanced a sabotaged budget, repaired and cleaned much of the public infrastructure, froze the rent, cracked down on slumlord landlords, paved roads, commited money to healthcare, childcare, and helping the homeless. meanwhile jeffries and his fellow establishement democrats have done...

I believe they KNEW Mrs Gonyea was at the polling station BEFORE knocking on her door-family told them she was a poll worker-FBI already knew where she was. FBI KNEW this woman violated NOTHING-It is she who’s been violated-This was MEANT to get media involved-to stoke fear at polling places.

Terrorism to control elections. Just like Russia. And exactly as people warned for years.

Paigelynne Gonyea, the Syracuse poll worker who federal immigration agents recently confronted at her voting site as she worked an election, said in an interview with Democracy Docket that she’s exploring her legal options, including free speech violations. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Yikes

The average life expectancy of a new Russian recruit—from arrival at a training ground to death in a combat zone—lies somewhere between 10 days and three weeks. Once sent onto the battlefield, they survive an average of 20 to 35 minutes. @peterfrankopan.bsky.social foreignpolicy.com/2026/06/25/r...

The resilience of this Iranian football team given what they have been subjected to in this #worldcup is nothing short of incredible. Just sheer persistence and resilience.

This is called prison. Keeping everyone under constant surveillance is putting everyone into permanent incarceration for life. Do any of these tech weirdos actually ever interact with humans?

When they said, "wear a suit," I just assumed…  Find a public pool near you at nycgovparks.org.

My view on 2028: Let's have the whole field make their case, and see who "meets the moment," *after* the midterms. My view on 2026: Re-elect Ossoff. And swing control of House and Senate. The midterms are "eyes on the prize" right now.

I don’t particularly care about Ossoff in any direction, but it feels like a sun breaking through clouds moment to see mainstream politicians campaign by honestly & directly describing this stuff; prioritizing reality over the feelings of a hypothetical center-right they might alienate

i think ossoff is going to be pretty formidable

whoever got Ossoff to hit the gym and start wearing tight shirts might have saved the republic insane how much more aura he has nowadays

Ossoff is making a very strong play for the "I stand at the center of the Democratic Party ideologically, but I long to bathe in the blood of my enemies" lane in the 2028 primaries. And that's gonna be a good lane to have.

I think Ossoff is the candidate most likely to lock up the southern vote, which means he’s the candidate most likely to win the primary

Why isn’t every centrist D in the party saying this? My understanding is that Ossoff is not some radical (lol) like Mamdani, he’s just an average to maybe even leaning a bit centrist D. But there he is saying what he’s saying and getting people pretty excited.

This is a great approach by Sen. Ossoff, but it's one that, given the current Republican Party, could and should be adopted by most Democrats. A ton of professional Republicans are fundamentally horrible people, and Democrats need to tell voters that those Republicans are, in fact, horrible.

Mamdani promised and is immediately delivering on policies the centrists sneered at us for even mentioning for 40 years. They're losing their minds because he's showing they've been lying all along about what is possible; he is proving that good government comes from the (not even that far) left

Why it’s time for Democratic socialism!

The BBC has requested that Donald Trump hand over his phone records from Jan. 6 as part of his defamation lawsuit against the broadcaster.

New York City residents are celebrating the reopening of public pools — including Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who jumped into the water while wearing a suit at an East Harlem pool on Saturday. Outdoor public pools will be open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. every day through Sept. 13.

This 1679 “Sabionari” Stradivarius is the only playable guitar by Antonio Stradivari left in this world.🤗 So take just a moment to hear a sound that’s well over 300 years old! @55SweetThing #globalmuseum #music #guitar #Stradivarius

Creepy. Washington D.C. is now creepy as hell.

“Loitering” around the most important monuments to American democracy in the nation’s capital is suddenly “not permitted”? First, they drove away all the immigrants, now they’re coming for the tourists?

And people accused those of us on the left of being alarmist when we worried about a Big Brother police state. Troops are now patrolling empty tourist areas looking to arrest people for thoughtcrimes.

“Loitering is not permitted in this area. Please proceed to a designated location. Thank you for your cooperation,” a surveillance machine tells a small cluster of National Guard members as they patrol the fenced off Reflecting Pool in the rain.

It’s embarrassing just how much Mamdami’s dancing and singing move me. Right in the middle of the Knicks fans, he’s just a fan without any airs and graces, with tousled hair and wild dance moves. I wish all politicians could be so true to themselves.

Time to start taxing religious institutions and their properties

You realize that Mitch McConnell is the blame for stacking the Supreme Court with Judges who actually ignore the Constitution !

Leon Black is at the center of our Jeffrey Epstein investigation, and he just walked out of our interview after being issued a subpoena. He may try, but he can't avoid our questions. We look forward to seeing him again, this time under oath.

Does anyone else think that impeaching 6 Supreme Court Justices is something we should do after the Dems win the house back after the midterms ?

🚨‼️ Breaking 🚨‼️ Leon Black is walking out of our Epstein Oversight investigation after refusing to answer questions about his NDAs with women.

Musk’s tool Carr is weaponizing the FCC now too. The Disney-owned network has said that the FCC’s efforts are a chill to the First Amendment, targeting a show that has been subject to attacks from the right and the Trump White House. deadline.com/2026/06/fcc-...

For the Knicks fans in your life who are also raccoons :>

The tyranny of Zohran Mamdani using tax dollars to provide services benefitting the people paying taxes chill me to the bone and demonstrate the rank selfishness of his political project, “we pay the taxes so we should get something out of it” Self-absorbed egotism, that’s all it is.

The way we are treating animals, by ignoring climate change, is careless and ruthless enough. Surely we can at least show empathy for those whose freedom we have annexed? It's madness to expose a zoo to this kind of feeble- minded 'planning'. Haven't we learned anything about animal management?

Residents packed a city public hearing in Nashville, Tennessee, on Thursday night, looking to stop a nearly 70,000-square-foot data center from being built near the Nashville Zoo, arguing it would expose the animals to noise, fumes and bright lights. www.cbsnews.com/news/data-ce...

Capybara Cuteness

My Uber driver in Branson was a Kennedy-Goldwater-Nixon-Nixon-Ford-Reagan-Reagan-Bush-Dole-Bush-Bush-McCain-Romney-Trump-Trump-Trump voter. He said that after Tuesday’s primary results in New York, there’s no way he’ll ever vote for a Democrat again.

It’s funny how all the criticisms of Democratic socialism end up sounding like endorsements

They’re terrified. Good.

I’m down. Let’s take over all the oil companies and healthcare companies to start.
