Rubbing my hands in anticipation of the great exodus of rich ppl from NYC because then maybe it will be affordable for the ppl who actually work there and who want to live in an actual community and not a fiefdom

So many predicted close races, which is understandable. But turnout favored the anti-kings…. And blew the predictions up. 2026, and 2028….. stand back and stand by

The entire right-wing propaganda machine came after Zohran Mamdani.

The president and his allies came after him.

Democratic leaders, by and large, did not have his back until the last minute.

He still won, turning out historic numbers and inspiring young voters.

His politics can win anywhere.

Zohran Mamdani is the new Mayor of New York City!

The people chose change.

They voted in record numbers and proved that all the money in the world isn’t a substitute for class.

They want progressive policies that benefit everyone.

They want affordability.

They want a compassionate leader.

If your case is so weak the country will “die” unless the Court takes your side, maybe the real threat isn’t the Court. Pressuring SCOTUS with “life or death” rhetoric is a textbook warning indicator in our assessment of accelerating authoritarian dynamics.

We have evidence now going back to 2018 that when Trump isn't on the ballot, it's grim scenes for Republicans.

And he'll never (lawfully) be on the ballot again.

Are we taking bets yet on when he officially announces he’s crossing the floor?

Dick Cheney did more than anyone else to build up expansive and destructive executive branch powers in the wake of 9/11; he lived to see another president turn those same powers against his own daughter.

He should be a warning sign to the GOP today but too many of them are in the cult.

Same, and this one was too long coming but I’ll take it for today. And the day is young, yet I still prefer a stroke that prevents any form of communication while preserving what cognitive functioning remains. I want to see him tried and sentenced for treason and RICO crimes.

Some very big news for the little guy today. We spoke with his owner and he 100% wanted what was best for Stormzy.

He will be able to have a full recovery now and never have to go back on the streets again ❤️

YES! And radio ads featuring screeching brakes followed by breaking glass during ”rush hour” drive times.

The tragedy is Andrew losing his title and you feel badly for the royal family? No, Mr. President.

The tragedy is the over a thousand victims of sexual abuse.

Pass Rep. Thomas Massie & my bill to release the Epstein files.

Grijalva: I do think that Speaker Johnson misplayed his hand.

There are people all over this nation who were out there with signs that said, “Swear her in.” They wouldn’t have even known about me otherwise.

Thank you for highlighting how corrupt the system you’re protecting really is.

Holder: They have elections in Russia, and Putin gets 95, 93% of the vote. We’ll continue to have elections here in the US. The question is whether the people will actually get the opportunity to express their views on the policy direction of the nation.
