The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.

It didn't matter.

Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

This is horrible! I was just praising Teen Vogue the other day for their amazing forthrighteousness, and now it's going down the tubes!

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data.
