Don’t let anyone change the reality of who Fuentes is. Now that he is more mainstream, there will be an almost involuntary reaction on the part of many to see him as legitimate.

He’ll use that to great effect, as he already did with Carlson.

But never forget: this is who Fuentes actually is.

I don’t think the president should sent troops to invade cities as punishment for electing a mayor he disagrees with, but it’s a moot point for New Yorkers, since the troops will be sent in either way.
This isn't a closing election argument, it's Vidkun Quisling explaining why surrender is better than resistance.

Trump on Netanyahu: "I don't think they treat him very well. He's under trial for some things. We'll be involved in that to help him out a little bit because I think it's very unfair."

Mamdani took extreme left wing positions like “the government should not use secret police to abduct peoples families because the president is a fucking racist.” Obviously this is not a position a candidate in the Midwest or south should take, to appeal to moderate voters, right?

Just the face you want to see endorsing your campaign on the eve of the election
We've never escaped the thrall of Puritanism. It's so pathetic.
Vote for me! I'm in Donald Trump's pocket!
"Vote for me or Donald Trump will invade your city" is really not making the argument he thinks he is making.

Ben Shapiro was just ratioed by Nick Fuentes on X after Shapiro called out Tucker Carlson and Fuentes for their antisemitism.

The neo nazi right is fully taking over the republican party.
On the webinar earlier with Mayor Bass and the Deputy Chief of LAPD, they kept saying "We do not assist ICE. We have a policy to not engage in any immigration activity" as if it's a good thing. They should be protecting residents. That's their job, regardless of who they are protecting them against.
ICE is acting extrajudicially, committing countless crimes. To say that local law enforcement does not have an absolute obligation to stop ICE from committing blatant crimes in broad daylight is insane.
Six months after ICE apprehended 47 people, including nine kids, in Hays County, Tex., County Judge Ruben Becerra says DHS has ignored his attempts to get answers:

“We’re not told why they took them, and we’re not told where they took them. By definition, that’s a kidnapping.”

Apparently I’ve said something controversial by arguing that the future model for the Democratic Party are charismatic candidates who advocate for populist positions while never backing down to right wing intimidation campaigns. How is this even up for debate?

Genuinely begging you to re-up your MMR & get your kids vaccinated if you can.

South Carolina schools recently sent home unvaccinated kids to stem a growing measles outbreak. It turned out 5 of them were infected and, if they'd been at school, could've unwittingly spread it to their classmates for days.

On the special webinar meeting with Mayor Bass and the Deputy Chief of LAPD and they are blatantly avoiding questions and/or fudging the facts about the LAPD response this weekend at Short Stop. I hate this shit so much.

A culture publication throwing in with the great media surrender to Trumpism is really something because if you fire all your people of color idk what “culture” you’re gonna cover.
thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Two of the media organizations that have really "met the moment" in national coverage are Teen Vogue and WIRED.

Along with student-run college newspapers in general. And scores of local start-ups.

The main hope for journalism (in its dark times) is the next wave of journalists.
For any unfamiliar with the quality of journalism at Teen Vogue, it's well known for hard-hitting stories on "politically sensitive" topics including climate.

Then there's CBS: the only major network to increase climate coverage in the last few years. They just axed nearly their whole climate team.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

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.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

Forbes estimates Mamdami’s net worth at $200-300K. Cuomo’s net worth is around $13 million—but what’s even better is how Forbes begins its article describing Cuomo’s wealth.

Clearly, when Cuomo does it, it’s admirable largess. When Mamdani does it, it’s class warfare.
