The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.
It didn't matter.
Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

The Department of Veterans Affairs’s $193 billion disability program has become a rich target for fraudsters, according to a Post investigation.
Each year, the agency opens dozens of criminal cases against veterans who are suspected of faking injuries or illnesses for money. https://wapo.st/48QiInJ

I was explaining to my Ukrainian colleague the phrase ‘There’s no such thing as a free lunch’. She told me the equivalent in Ukrainian is ‘The only free cheese is in the mousetrap’ - which is so much better

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

So the dems are trying to figure out what young men want and can't figure out why they did well with the demographic with Obama twice, Bernie in 2016 and then with Biden...yet they didn't vote for Hillary or Kamala...gee, I wonder what the difference is. Stop pandering to misogyny for votes.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.
It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Don't think no one cares. People are doing things. Do what you can, too.
Since Trump took office in January for his second term, numerous protests have taken place across the city, state and country.
‘It’s more urgent now’: Protests have taken over Chicago. Here’s what to know.
Some protests are in response to the second Trump administration, while others have been organized by veteran activist organizations.

Well if Google is going to shut off reviews for the “gulf of America” then perhaps we should give Google bad reviews for obeying in advance!

On Feb. 14th I try always to give honor to one of the greatest contributors to American democracy in our nation’s history, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, and adopted Feb. 14th as the day. His penetrating insights about our country inspire me daily.

Indeed. Even in your absence, you are loving me, sweet boy, and showing me how to continue healing. I can never properly express how grateful I am to have had you in my life. I'll love you forever and miss you for always.

Be for real, if you are over the age of 30, and feel that Prince & MJ were THE best half time performances (not arguing there) then you must ALSO remember all the “old” (read: white) ppl hating on them. Don't be the old [white] ppl now. Do better.
