This @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The numbers he cites, the strategy and results they produced — it’s the future. When have you heard *any* campaign talk about this, ever? (Video split in 2 to fit in Bluesky’s limits)

Lander: "It's just gross, racist bigotry. Meanwhile he's running an optimistic, upbeat campaign for a NY where everybody belongs, and I feel proud as the highest-ranking Jewish elected official in NYC to be supporting somebody who would be the first Muslim mayor—what could be more NYC than that?"

I'm proud I don't have Andrew Cuomo's record of corruption, scandal and disgrace.

Hold up. Zohran Mamdani’s mother is Mira Nair?! God damn that’s dope and though parents aren’t a reason to vote for someone in this instance let’s pause to say don’t rank Cuomo.

Notice there's TENS OF THOUSANDS of people on the streets in LA. Nobody's hurting each other. It's one big party — until the cops show up. Police are the outside agitators.

Current synthetic food dyes are not causing health problems, and are often times used because they are actually safer than natural food dyes. Reminder that guns are the #1 cause of death of children but we are going to ban food dyes.
BREAKING: The FDA has officially announced they will be banning artificial dyes in the food supply by the end of 2026

The story of the 2024-25 LA Clippers will, most likely, ultimately be about perseverance. But buried within that is one key factor: they were right all along. And everyone who doubted their offseason and plans was wrong.

The LA Clippers were right. You were wrong.
Turns out, the team did do the right things this past offseason.

This is what its like to work in the Trump administration now. When a career official objected to declaring that living immigrants were dead on legal and ethical grounds, security guards went to his office and told him to leave.

Trump administration overrode Social Security staff to list immigrants as dead
A senior executive who objected was marched out of his office and put on leave, while earlier warnings about the agency’s deaths database were ignored.

Post-9/11 laws expanded surveillance, weakened oversight, and normalized bypassing rights—all in the name of security. Those powers were never rolled back, just reused.
You can’t fight Trump without fighting this & every other constitutional loophole we allowed to become law. Impossible.

Trump says his tariffs will raise $6 trillion.
Assuming that's over 10 years, that's $600 billion per year.
There are 134 million households, so this is nearly $5,000 per household per year.
And it's like a sales tax, so it's a flat tax. A huge hit to the budgets of working folks.

A lot of Republicans are going to be using the Nuremberg Defense ("just following orders") when this is over. Spoiler: this defense was rejected in 1946 and that's an international precedent.
