Even Nextdoor is letting me down 😞
Can anyone in NYC tell me why my neighbors have been outside banging pots & pans at 7pm for the last few nights like it's 2020 again? All the Google results are about 5 years ago.
As a child of 80s & 90s suburbia, Hulk Hogan might be the ultimate example of the "die a hero or live long enough to become the vilian" idea.

Frankly, he continues to be, in many ways, a Real American.

in 2020, these guys who fancied themselves the world's true leaders bore witness to the power of a large-scale social movement so big that it could shift public policy and strip power from them within their own organizations. it undermined their entire sense of themselves and they lost their minds.
i think the big middle event between george floyd protests and covid that accelerated this hard right turn in elite circles was tech employees using slack to stage walk-outs and force concessions from management. tech bosses got a first whiff of organized labor's power and started reading mein kampf
Only in America could a white man with a current net worth of $2 billion see himself as part of a victimized group. 🤦‍♂️

I sat in the courtroom for this hearing on Thursday and listened to the federal government bend over backwards to try and justify their roving patrols as not at all racist and unconstitutional

They failed spectacularly. Miller’s rhetoric is predictable &dangerous, but also the gov is full of idiots

It’s just hard to believe Rudy, Bo Dietl, the Gristedes guy and Bill Ackman are somehow going to find the magic button to beat this.
The 14th Street Busway has been a smashing success: faster commutes, fewer crashes, calmer streets.

So why is Eric Adams blocking a similar plan for 34th Street?

I love the joy that working people feel about seeing someone who cares about them potentially leading the city.

Popular control of government is a good idea, and it's beautiful to see regular people find such hope in the possibility.

LOL. This is so great and such a perfect response to the absolute trash coming from elsewhere.

But congestion pricing polled terribly.

The “popularists” who run Democratic party strategy said we shouldn’t do it. Because the polls were bad.
But public opinion can change, and politicians can and should lead it.
Vote for politicians who will lead public opinion, not follow it.
Congestion pricing by the # ‘s 6 months in:
* 67k fewer drivers entering zone daily
* Delays in Holland Tunnel down 65%
* Traffic deaths down 32% so far in 2025
* $500m projected this year for MTA capital improvements
* B’way attendance +12%
* Subway ridership +7%

So yes this program is a SUCCESS.

BILLIONAIRE: Lying Zohran Mamdani says that the rich have too much power. Here is the politician I have personally selected to be mayor instead.

Credit where credit is due, this guy is an empty suit with no soul doing the bare minimum we would all be obligated to do with his unearned power.
Minutes ago, Hakeem Jeffries crossed the seven-hour mark of continuously speaking on the House floor, using the "magic minute" tradition that lets party leaders go on as long as they want—like a filibuster. Presumably Jeffries intends to beat the record of eight-and-a-half hours; C-SPAN has a timer.

Zohran Mamdani received more first-round votes (432,305) than Andrew Cuomo received total votes after ranked choice voting (428,530).

That means more people ranked Zohran first than ranked Cuomo anywhere on their ballot (without ranking Zohran above him).

Bloodbath in the third round. Cuomo nets 52K more votes, Zohran nets nearly 100K more. bsky.app/profile/benj...

Karoline Leavitt indicates the administration is open to a denaturalization-oriented investigation against Zohran Mamdani

There is no greater distance between the facts on the ground and the political discourse than this fucking genocide. Thousands of people are being killed and starved! Children! No one meaningfully disputes this. Yet the only thing the media generates moral outrage about is the civility of protestors
Reposted
Yes there is a years-long mass murder and starvation campaign taking place but did you know that a political candidate didn't condemn a phrase some random people used at a protest trying to stop it?
can @msnbc.com stop bringing this reactionary racist shitbag, who just three weeks ago compared student protesters to isis and al qaeda, to speak on behalf of the jewish community? do a survey of american jews to see if we support the adl and jonathan greenblatt's positions. you'll be shocked!
Debating Mamdani's refusal to condemn the phrase 'globalize the intifada'

Susan Collins says she’ll vote YES on the motion to proceed to the bill, but she still has problems with it and plans to file several amendments. Without further changes, she says she’s “LEANING AGAINST” the bill on final passage.
