Don’t know what’s going to happen today, but I do know this: People who oppose the corrupt, cruel, lawless madman in the White House would crawl butt ass naked over broken glass for miles right now to vote against him and his party.

Disturbing news out of Auburn University, where the admin is pressuring professors to sign a statement saying they're complying with an "anti-DEI" law and TPUSA is holding a rally and trying to record classes.

I hear faculty are terrified to sign, worried this is a pretense for mass firings.

Auburn University requires faculty to review courses to comply with anti-DEI law

Auburn's provost office posted a web site on how to comply with state and federal DEI mandates on Oct. 31.

This. Always this.

“The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.”
-Kurt Vonnegut, A Man Without a Country

There was an active federal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged co-conspirators all the way until September 2025 — and then it abruptly stopped.

When we launched this campaign, we said we wanted to knock on one million doors across the five boroughs by the June primary.

Some people laughed. You got to work. We hit 1.6 million.

In the general, we said let's do it again. Another million.

We just passed three.

There are many who dismiss our vision for New York as impossible. To them, I say we need look only to our past for proof of how we can shape the future.
