raise your hand if you have been personally harmed by the puritan and protestant ideologies of “suffering builds character,” and “dependence is weakness.” we lived and loved so differently before colonialism.

If only the Speaker put half as much energy into governing as he does into avoiding work. He still hasn’t sworn in Representative-elect Grijalva, people are hungry, planes are grounded, and Republicans are on vacation. They’re showing you exactly who they are. Believe them.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

In Opinion “The instinct to treat Zohran Mamdani as a local New York City phenomenon ignores the reality of the American voters behind his historic win,” Mara Gay writes. “Most of the people who voted for Mr. Mamdani for mayor are at the heart of the Democratic Party coalition, not at its fringes.”

Opinion | What Started as Affordability Politics Has Become Something Deeper
Zohran Mamdani’s campaign ended up winning over some of the exact voters who make up a major part of the Democratic coalition. Why is worth considering.

New York electing its first Muslim mayor 24 years after 9/11 and rejecting the idiotic racism that would connect those events is actually a legit excuse for American triumphalism, but the people who say they love America the most hate all the best things about it.
