I’m in NY relax abboudit. The party’s spine (such as it is) WILL be broken, TBD if by us or (seems more likely tbh) by fascism. Capital hedge, TU4YS! I personally would vote blue if in a swing state but if you don’t I get it. we need to wake libs up to have a chance, b4 they sleepwalk seig heil
the first time I wondered if we were cooked (and I was a lib at the time) is about the third time I saw when the cherrypicked anecdote floated to support a much-larger argument had, upon examination, an actual fact pattern of that anecdote that didn't hold up or worse

with the firings I think the Hegseth in-house generals thing was basically a loyalty test like who gave me the stinkeye or didn't smile when I by power rules basically told him too. This is based on the headline could be off. Could also have been orders to cut subordinates who weren't loyal.

the thing is with fascism is that our "ashes" in a spiritual and material sense is heart-pure and accurate BUT, from a Trump perspective: there are still people and those who 'matter' (and many who don't) are forced to like/reward/etc. him until he dies. after that who cares. that's maybe his math

spiritually the Broncos and the Jets have been similar teams for most years in recent decade, maybe 2 decades, so easy joint-fandom for me. Good-usually defense and unreliable-at-best offense. Such an ugly win for Broncos over Raiders

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

Just for the obvious decode: we can't have elections, or at least remotely fair elections, in 2026. Muscle will be a factor

if you had some genie wish early 2000s and you wanted to peaceably derail Musk's financial climb for some reason you could do a lot worse than wish that he insisted on being spokesperson for his companies. And yet

If we ever get matrix technology we should just plug dudes like Trump and Musk into it where they can be beloved and leave the rest of us alone. It doesn't inform any solution at this point but it's remarkable how much we're all suffering from "negative externalities" of incredibly motivated losers.

Not a mutually exclusive take but I think most cooked mainstream reporting I've seen can be summarized in the main as careerism under increasingly capital-mandated conditions.
Tonight's even more proof the mainstream reporters who are still on Twitter are suffering from a brain problem akin Havana Syndrome that is preventing them from accurately doing their jobs. They are being cooked alive by a snuff-focused apartheid algorithm.

get ready to see a lot of capital media littered with "overreach" and how a "backlash" is not just inevitable, but justified

the point of the ballroom obvs has nothing to do with aesthetics. it's to create an architectural structure to honor the patronage networks that currently dominate US politics. previous WH venues hosted maybe a couple of hundred people; this hosts nearly 1,000 rich donors.

Man that first sentence is such a perfect confession with a “not” slapped on it
NPR does not exist to silo people in a cozy set of ideas. Andrew Cuomo won 43% of votes in the Dem primary. He has a long history. Our reporting includes charges of sexual misconduct & mishandling of COVID care - and describes his long list of progressive wins as governor www.npr.org/2025/11/03/n...
Andrew Cuomo fights for his political life and his version of the Democratic Party
Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has a long list of accomplishments, many of them progressive. In the race for New York City mayor, that experience hasn't given him the boost he wanted.

What's deeply frustrating is THIS IS ALWAYS WHO HE WAS and some of us were begging people not to be bamboozled during the height of COVID in 2020.
Cuomo is thoroughly red-pilled and will be on Fox News at least once a week over the next few years. He'll be a Fox News Democrat in the mold of Alan Dershowitz.
On MSNBC Cuomo said "diversity can be a weakness." When asked by one of the two Black hosts (Eugene) to clarify, he doubled down on his statement and called Eugene "Jonathan."
So Cuomo is anti-diversity & can't tell Black people apart.🤔
Honestly the best anti-Cuomo ads are just letting Cuomo speak
