NEW YORK WILL NEVER LOVE YOU

From the ppl who complained about congestion pricing.

Do these idiots realize that most of the teams are not from the United States?

Entering month 6 of Mamdani's NYC & Robberies are down 11%, Retail theft is down 19%, & Murder is down 21%—all without "Adding 5000 new cops." Instead, he's invested in public safety free childcare, food, and better funded schools. Safer cities come from investing in people—not punishments.

Hi! Bear with me. This will be a longer one. First: there are 3 republican senators who are still pretty middle of the road on most common sense things. From the jump, if they were on board we stood a good chance. Second: the senator who drew the 2020 map and went to court over it was not

This photo of Andy Kim in the moments before ICE gassed everyone at Delaney Hall is going into the history books. We need more of this from our electeds.

the senate should censure the admin for its brutal assault on Kim; Ice agents involved and Markwayne Mullen should be subpoenaed and questioned in open hearings.

Another reminder: if there exists *any* class of people who don't have due process rights, then *nobody* actually has due process rights because the government can always just say you're in that class.

Not a big consent guy, the rapist president

I don’t think law enforcement should drop charges against child molesters and hand the molesters checks from US taxpayers just because said molesters also got convicted in court for assaulting police officers as part of a violent attack on America. Sorry to get so partisan, but that’s how I feel.

It’s worth noting that when Jan. 6 happened, the pro-Trump right used dozens of conspiracy theories to try and offload blame from themselves—e.g., claiming it was “antifa,” “feds.” Now, they seem keen to just admit they did it—all of it—and it was good.

meant this

Random reminder that banning elected officials from trading stock is a total no brainer. They can use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake — it’s legalized corruption.

BREAKING: Judge Waverly Crenshaw dismisses indictment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia based on selective and vindictive prosecution. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

They showed this version in schools for maybe 15 years and literally no one in my class had any reaction to a black woman being in it, someone yesterday said Eartha Kitt was Helen of Troy in 1950 and I looked it up and it was Orson Welles who cast her because she was a cabaret dancer and was hot!

The President executed suspects without trial, kidnapped a foreign leader, started a war, and is contemplating another invasion - all without any input from Congress. Regardless what you think about the actors involved and the threats they present, this is the behavior of an unaccountable dictator.

Yes it would be extremely easy to just send the IRS after him in January 2029.

If you approve of the slush fund, you approve of paying people who try to fuck kids.

You’d think Todd Blanche would be comfortable saying the slush fund will exclude known child abusers as he already said it will exclude President Trump.

Andrew Paul Johnson was arraigned in a Florida court in October on multiple charges, including molesting a child as young as 11 years old. Johnson dangled the prospect that one of the children could receive money bc...he was entitled to $10 million as part of reparations for his January 6 arrest.

If Democrats had the political instincts and media machine Republicans do, in 48 hours 95% of Americans would know Andrew Paul Johnson's name and be LIVID that the government is getting ready to give him some of your tax money

Is Section 4 of the 14th Amendment still on the books or nah?

Ireland is showing its anti-colonial teeth recently, and I’m here for it.

My taxes are going to murder school children overseas and to let pardoned insurrectionist pedophiles get their hush money payoffs to victims, meanwhile, the papers of record want to let me know the real danger is the guy who taxes second homes in Manhattan to balance budgets and feed hungry kids.

Street signs at the gas pump USA

When you can’t control the image.

The smirk is actually his brain realizing that he could have gotten paid more to do this instead of having large men try to squish him.

Justice is supposed to be blind. Not dumb.

The reason we know this is fake is because the alien is taller.

Lolllllll #birdCalls #EDM

I think it's time the left start getting angrily political about routine stuff in TV shows and movies. "It's an *outrage* that Dutton Ranch doesn't have solar panels!" "They cast a man to play Jack Reacher?!?! What?!" "None of the Fast and Furious cars are EVs? NONE? I thought this was America!"

Went to a bar where I didn’t enough of the local language, and it was awesome.

So you’ve been racist since you were a child.

If this shitbird can make the swing then what is there from stopping us?

I’m pro-freedom, pro-law and order, pro-limited government, and pro-the Declaration and the Constitution. And so today I’m a Democrat.

Polis has a personal fortune and is term limited so can’t run for reelection. You’d hope this would make him think more about the safety of the Republic over short term pressure from the President. But no! So now basically nobody is going to be punished for trying to overturn the 2020 election.

Trump on Iran War: Reporter: What extent are Americans’ financial situation motivating you to make a deal? Trump: Not even a little bit. I don't think about Americans’ financial situation

Between this and the Bloomingdale’s bag saga, it’s been a morning of stories about getting one’s rocks off.

Want people to remember he brought this up in the context of adhd

Spirit Airlines lasted nearly 11x longer than the confederacy. What monuments should it get?

BREAKING: We're suing Louisiana officials for suspending the state's primary election after voting has already begun. On the heels of a Supreme Court decision that eviscerated protections for voters of color, elected officials jumped at the chance to disenfranchise people — we won't allow it.

“This protest is inconvenient 😿”

“Am I skinny or is it just my jeans? The memoir of a millennial life”

The best-case is discouraging people to *JOIN* Substack, because I find once people are on there, the very clear algorithmic coaxing tends to convince them to want to stay. But this website can help convince those with strong principles to leave leavesubstack.com

if you’re not already aware, kara swisher is not the rebellious truth-teller she makes herself out to be

Hold on. We the taxpayers are going to pay companies $900 million, which is more than 6x what we spend on wind power R&D, to NOT build wind power at a time when electricity prices are spiking and we need more clean power?

Ass, gas, or grass, no one rides America for free.

Our president doesn’t have balls.

This is why the right thinks that all protesters are paid actors… Projection at its core.

Did you know Buttondown will migrate your newsletter *for you*? It's amazing.
