Palestinian liberation is now one of the most popular causes in the Democratic party and yet 75% of its members in Congress are, in some form, in the way of it

The kidnappers have names and should be arrested immediately

Breaking WaPo: Pro-Trump activists who say they are in coordination with the White House are circulating a 17-page draft executive order that claims China interfered in the 2020 election as a basis to declare a national emergency that would unlock extraordinary presidential power over voting.

I’ve had the privilege of having @votewelch.bsky.social as a colleague and friend for almost a decade now. While I am selfishly displeased at losing her as my office mate, NY-03 deserves better than Tom Suozzi (1 of 7 Dems voting to fund DHS)I KNOW Dani will be the fierce advocate that NY 3 needs.

hell of a headline

Fetterman’s poll numbers are now in Sinema territory: sunk too deep with his party to win a primary, artificially inflated by Republicans who’d never actually vote for him, trapped in a negative-partisanship era that makes an independent bid implausible. His seat is up in 2028.

Ultimately, the people freaking out over the snowballs aren't *literally* afraid of snowballs, they just believe they should be able to kill anyone who annoys them and they get wish fulfillment from cops, a class of people that is mostly allowed to do that, and are furious at a rare exception

we finally reached the end of this calendar event i accidentally made 12 years ago

In the criminal justice system, snowball-based offenses are considered especially heinous. In New York City, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Special Snowball Unit. These are their stories. 🚓

"You missed me" When you're white and in Central Park, the NYPD will play along with your snowball fight. When you're brown and in Washington Square Park you get thrown to the ground, investigations begin, kids are called adults, and snow is called ice.

Schumer is supposed to represent the majority of New Yorkers, Democrats and all Americans who oppose war on Iran. Instead the leader of the opposition says Trump should “make his case.” Who will actually stand up to this administration?

Governments saving money definitionally means not spending it which means fewer jobs, neglected infrastructure and hollowed out productive capacity. But hey at least budget is balanced from a non-human perspective!

“astrology for men” was too generous

“I just don’t get the kind of engagement on Bluesky that I get on X” the engagement:

Former ICE lawyer Ryan Schwank: “I received secretive orders to teach new cadets to violate the Constitution.”

Something I think about often is, if a Democrat said this today, it would've been a hot mic moment and they'd have to apologize and say it was out of context. FDR said it at Madison Square Garden, 3 days before a presidential election

for those who don’t know, being hamfisted like this is basically the only way you can preserve your message through via local media. They will cut it all out every time. I have seen it happen half a dozen times in the 3 months I have been organizing, they will edit you into saying both sides.

Separate from the vile content, why does the New York Times keep letting Bret Stephens write the same column over and over again?

One day I may tell the full story of all the sh*t Cuomo put the Left (especially NY WFP) through in 2019. But for now, I'll just say this: I don't think it would be an exaggeration to say that we wouldn't have public matching funds at the state level today were it not for @yuhline.bsky.social.

SCOOP — Tom Suozzi has a Democratic primary challenger in the NY-3 congressional race. Danielle Welch (@daniwelch.bsky.social), a public defender, has officially declared her candidacy. Welch gave me this comment about launching her campaign:

Deliveristas ending their shift and about to head home over the Williamsburg Bridge, though the blizzard. One of them, Salvador,tells me he’s happy for the cutoff by the city. “This is more dangerous than last snowstorm, harder to move in,” he tells me in Spanish.

Ten glorious years of a guy who has mostly been the president and always been the main character of American political life doing posts like this and everyone trying to figure out what cable news segment he saw, misunderstood in the way a dog might misunderstand a crossword, and made into policy.

america is all about starving cuba and killing 1 million arabs annually and giving 10 trillion dollars to israel and if you complain about that you’ll be put in a concentration camp

“Settlers threw eggs at us in Hebron.” Congressional candidate Effie Phillips-Staley did what many US politicians don't: she visited Palestine. The Democratic primary contender for New York's 17th Congressional District told Prem all about the backlash she’s faced over it. 🔗: youtu.be/BBQc_Onwzz0

perfect encapsulation of white racism on Long Island

god he’s the fucking worst

New: A comedian set up a fake ICE tip line as a joke. Then 100 calls flooded in: neighbors ratting on neighbors, a teacher reporting a kindergartener. Fans say the viral TikToks revealed deportation's "banality of evil." Conservatives say he should be in prison wapo.st/4kM4qbF

running a "lock him up" campaign on Elon is a 40 state winning strategy

if some of you pushed for democrats to do a better job with half the intensity you complain about criticism of democrats we would be ahead of the game

“This is an important win not just for The Handbasket but for the promise of transparency in DC. The court’s ruling vindicates the public’s right of access to body cam footage, and ensures that the public will get a full and accurate accounting of the episode at the US Institute of Peace last year.”

“It’s time to build communities, not data centers,” said one local activist.

NEW: One of Trump's top "regulators" is working to block regulation of prediction markets like Polymarket & Kalshi. Turns out, his old firm reps Polymarket. And he's using his role to join a legal battle his old colleagues are in to defend the markets. And his old client helped Kalshi raise $185M.

Internet leftists criticizing Harris' bad campaign didn't cost her any votes. Her online surrogates spending years lying about the economy and smugly deriding poor people as being too stupid to understand their finances, on the other hand...

I just signed a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social petition: Please enact a two-year moratorium on the use of generative AI in NYC Public Schools. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/pl...

the main reason to go after the rich is that if you don’t the entire structure of your society is predicated on the whims of people who are entirely disconnected from ordinary life billionaires are simply too dangerous to exist, and any budgetary stuff that comes out of it is just a bonus

We need to recognize this as an epic once-in-generation run right here — a truly hall of fame level effort to be wrong about everything

so genuinely: uh, what was Merrick Garland doing with the Epstein files, given uh, it's brought down a royal and multiple Euro politicians/
