Big initial test for Mamdani is whether he orders NYPD to cease protecting Nazi ICE
agents and, if so, whether Tisch/NYPD brass will actually comply with his order

Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 for the first time since records began in 1982. The amazing result of HPV vaccination.

Stephen Miller is of Ashkenazi Jewish descent. His great-grandparents inhabited the Pale of Settlement (western Russia where Jews were allowed to live) and escaped Russian pogroms and the Holocaust. All the same racist, xenophobic, ignorant things he is saying were said about his own family.

Latest from me: I talk about how the GOP became the Groyper Party, which started decades back as paleoconservatives tried to figure out how to move working class whites towards a nationalist and nativist agenda. This is the entire party today.
The rise of Nick Fuentes and the GOP’s radicalization reflects decades of intellectual groundwork and the material decline that pushed a generation toward conspiracy-laden populism.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.
