Mamdani: "I just want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams who will call you to stay out of jail. I won't be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own."

I believe they've been clawing back money from programs from FY2025 to pay for that.

Uhhhh, given that the government is shut down and the yearly appropriations have expired, does anyone know where the funds for the Argentina bailout are coming from?

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

Trump: "I won Georgia three times. But they say twice. I won it big the second time but we had criminals that didn't allow- I hope they're gonna go into that. I hope they go into the votes which are being stored in Fulton County and take a real look at those votes, because I won it the 2nd time too"

John Roberts is slowly dismantling America

Twenty years of the Roberts Court has wreaked shocking damage. Is the Voting Rights Act next?

Antifa will become the new Communists as we see McCarthy-type smearing of dissenting Americans and political opponents. They'll make arrests, accuse all opposition voices of being antifa and demand names to keep the prosecutions and blacklists going. This is where we are heading.

Proud Federal Worker @proudfedworker.bsky.social · 13h

This admin uses "antifa" as a catch-all for anyone they don't like. If you call Pam fascist, you're antifa. If you rob a little old lady, you're antifa, if you're protesting the government, you're antifa, if you want the release of the Epstein files, you're antifa. This will bleed into McCarthyism.

HANNITY: Antifa is working against the American people. What would that be called?

BONDI: It would be called organized crime. And that's what they're doing ... they are no different than MS-13

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

Just to be clear:
(1) The old guard (both literally the older ones but also the spiritually/ideologically/tactically older ones) of the Democratic Party doesn't seem to understand the moment we're in.
(2) The competitive primaries (which are good!!) are going to prove that out.

That one kid who never did the group project but still slapped his name on it? Yeah — that’s your president. Always hustling the credit, never doing the work.The con never ends.

Typical Don the Con. Did none of the work. Took all the credit. Classic.

They could stop voting for Republicans. They could advocate to make sure their friends and family don't vote Republican. But their districts do that... over and over again. Join the unemployment line folks along with federal workers and tech company workers. We are all being replaced.

It's a ceasefire. Not a peace deal. You're so far from an actual peace deal that I'm pretty sure this ceasefire will fall apart before Thanksgiving 🦃

This administration keeps torching the Hatch Act—propaganda videos in airports, partisan emails on federal servers, even mass firings. It’s corruption with a flag pin. See something? Say something. Expose it through the whistleblower tip line.
