LET'S GO!!!!!!!!!

I met Antonio before he announced his first ever run in politics (for Congress in '18). He is the *real deal.*

Antonio Delgado @delgadoforny.bsky.social · Jun 2

New York, I’m not here to play the game. I’m here to change it.

I’m running to be your next Governor.

If I see as much as a single video edit I’m suing for $10 billion. Your move, CBS.

Good reference.

James E. Graham ❌👑 @jamesegraham.bsky.social · 7h

By which you mean "good."

I hear ya, and I look forward to feeling that much better about our city when the final numbers show how overwhelmingly we rejected him (Cuomo, to be clear).

James E. Graham ❌👑 @jamesegraham.bsky.social · 19h

Just read revelations,FFS.

It’s, it’s… him. *Why don’t the zealots see it?!*

James E. Graham ❌👑 @jamesegraham.bsky.social · 19h

Yup.

Oh no, no, no. They hate Chicago more.

They hold *you* up as the epitome of antifa. But Chicago is the epitome of *crime* (cough, Black people, cough).

A lot of poorer, esp. older Black people in NYC are socially conservative.

The woman who cleans my apartment is 70 from Guyana orig., and while we've had an ongoing convo where I've tried to explain Mamdani's positions, she defaults back to "socialism bad" and "Cuomo got us through the pandemic."

It's welfare queens all the way down for these people, and has been basically forever.

Your mom, Donnie.

There, I've given you a mnemonic so you never mispronounce it again.

Okay, that made me legit laugh out loud.

Kudos. 👏

the abbot of unreason (an archaeologist) @merovingians.bsky.social · 1d

personally I think we should encourage parties doing things publicly with their majorities over trying to hide it with the courts and obscure executive action

Sharon @sharonk.bsky.social · 1d

on one hand, the next year of legislation (if they kill the filibuster) is going to be batshit insane

on the other, it's likely going to cause a much larger thermostatic backlash given the changes they want to make

Holy crap. I knew there was something that gave me the ick about those photos…

I mean, I take your point…

…but also, I’d read the heck out of that article.

Had a super fun (cough) evening 3-4 years ago when my dog cornered (a.k.a. came within 50 feet of) a possum the open, and then proceeded to devote an hour to darting around and barking at it while I futilely tried to pull him away. Fun times!

You just reminded me I have yet to watch the last ep of Slow Horses this season.

Don't Substackers have the ability to moderate their own comments?

If so, entirely possible she nuked all the negative ones over there.

Trump trashes Obamacare in a new post. Funding under this law is the main dispute between the two parties in the ongoing government shutdown standoff.
