Curtis Sliwa: "Andrew Cuomo gave a billion dollars to Elon Musk to make solar panels. It was so corrupt that 9 of his appointees went to jail. Cuomo was obviously kicking him back money."

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

They fired every Black woman at Teen Vogue and every trans staffer.

It is astonishing watching the American media ecosystem just falling like dominoes, bowing its knees to fascism.

The Democratic establishment's ugly reaction to Zohran Mamdani reveals an unpleasant truth.

They would rather lose elections than change.

The addiction to rich donors and consultants is killing the party. But Mamdani shows a path out. An analysis.

We didn’t smash any tables. We didn’t eat a garbage plate. But you better believe the Bills got that W today.

Thanks to Gov. Kathy Hochul for bringing the #BillsMafia energy to Astoria today—and to Murphy’s Bar for having us.

Zohran's social media team has been amazing. Every Democrat who isn't a corporate shill should take lessons from this campaign! This came out immediately as 60 Minutes interview was on when Trump endorsed Cuomo:

On the other site, an 18-year-old Zohran canvasser described the legendary Wallace Shawn as "the actor who plays Dr. Sturgis on Young Sheldon" which is honestly adorable

Saw a news report yesterday about children as young as 9 being given weight loss jabs on the NHS, and I think it shows just how utterly bullshit the “lack of research into long term impacts” excuse for banning puberty blockers for trans kids really was. It’s purely ideological.

See, as a NYCer, I kinda disagree here. Most of what he did is generalizable to any candidate because he started with dissatisfied voters and listened to what they had to say. From that, he evolved policy and promises. Last, he figured out how to use social media to reach new voters where they were

The new Countdown podcast drops at midnight - and that's it, isn't it?

If Andrew can no longer be "Prince" because of Epstein, Trump can no longer be President because of Epstein

Plus: the Royals may be pushing Andrew to atone by telling all he knows about Epstein. Guess who might come up?

The people of Little Village showed the nation what courage looks like: standing unarmed, united, ＆ unafraid in the face of ICE’s tear gas ＆ violence. They protected their neighbors, not with weapons, but with peaceful ＆ fierce solidarity.

Karma barely exists in politics, so I think we should take a moment to recognize that Andrew Cuomo and his oligarch donors being defeated by a Bernie acolyte railing on billionaires as Obama himself and the larger Obamaworld bend the knee — this would truly be a karmic moment for the ages.

Following on from my post yesterday, in case there was any doubt, Trump is threatening war with Nigeria.

Nigeria has a population of nearly 233 million.

Donald J. Trump 2 O @realDonaldTrump
If the Nigerian Government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the U.S.A. Will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria, and may very well go into that now disgraced country, "guns-a-blazing," to completely wipe out the Islamic Terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities. I am hereby instructing our Department of War to prepare for possible action. If we attack, it will be fast, vicious, and sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attack our CHERISHED Christians!
WARNING: THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT
BETTER MOVE FAST!
