None of this is going to happen and the halal carts in nyc are already there and amazing, but this is the id of MAGA politics, "we can won so we can force everyone to do what we want" projected onto people who don't think that and wouldn't try. bsky.app/profile/stac...

"Mamdani’s victory, above all, is a rebuke to the conventional strategies of the Democratic party. Democratic congressional leadership seems to have replaced the work of politics with a sort of learned helplessness," writes @moiradonegan.bsky.social. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Waiting for all the breathless coverage about the all the people of color shifting blue in this election, since the shift to Trump a year ago was treated like a colossal re-ordering of the electorate that signaled the end of wokeness and progressive politics.

Similar to the old community organizing adage: in public life, there are no permanent enemies or allies, only changing self interests.

I am taking particular pleasure in the complete collapse of trans-as-unbeatable-wedge-issue narrative this morning. It might be an 80-20 issue in voters minds, but it has to be on voters minds to matter. The results in VA demonstrate that it is very much not on voters minds.

I have actually not seen Mamdani give a formal speech and what I’ll say is that unlike so many of his peers he is not trying to mimic anyone in his delivery. He is simply being himself and it is very effective.

Van Jones is truly useless

Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant."

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

Criminals posing as US immigration officers have carried out robberies, kidnappings and sexual assaults in several states, warns an FBI bulletin to law enforcement agencies issued last month. The bulletin urged nationwide coordination to distinguish real operations from fakes.

Instead of students providing evidence to support their claims, I wonder how many teachers would suggest they, instead, could just say, "It's just a fact"?
