I think it’s high time we take back the national narrative. For centuries Americans of all races, genders, religions, and abilities have worked to create a more perfect union, and we should shout from the rooftops that WE are America. Not these idiot white supremacist authoritarians.

I had a message from you to send money to elect Democrats. Yet you refuse to endorse and help Zohran Mamdani after Dems here chose him in a primary. What’s that all about? Is it only certain Dems you care about? Those who’ve sold out to the big $$ interests? Listen to the people not the money.

This is going to be one hell of a chapter in the history books- Make America Great Again- the Orwellian slogan and movement that marked the end of American greatness.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

When both my parents were born, in 1929 and 30, their parents were not citizens of the US. This implies that my parents citizenship could be questioned/ and thus mine. Probably tens of millions like me in this nation.

Aren’t you going to offer any post primary analysis on Mamdani? This is the most exciting and uplifting thing to happen for so many of us since November.

John Gromada 🇲🇨🇲🇨🇺🇦🇺🇦 @johngromada.bsky.social · Jun 26

One of BdB’s problems was communication - Mamdani does not have that problem. Now we just need a Delgado as Gov to support him with the legislature and we can have some real positive change. I left the city in 1991 when my rent was $750 for a 2 bedroom in Brooklyn. NYC is now only for the wealthy.

Why won't Kirsten Gillibrand denounce Cuomo?

As I recall, she was pretty vocal about Al Franken. 🤔

When Iran counterattacks it will not be in a conventional way: expect cyberattacks, terrorist attacks, many years of suicide bombings and other attacks that we’ll all be living with for the next decade. This doesn’t make us safer- on the contrary. Anti American sentiment will rise and grow terror

By the way, one of the reasons it’s terrible all of these people lie all of the time about meaningless things is it makes it impossible to believe them when they’re talking about incredibly consequential things.

In over 99.5 percent of protest events in April and May, we recorded no injuries, arrests, or property damage — an unprecedentedly tiny fraction for a movement of this size and geographic dispersion.

There’s no way this Iran thing can be that serious because Trump is at a show at the Kennedy Center right now and he would be working hard at the WH if there was a problem.

This is what happens when you weaken the United Nations- and when you have leaders who lie / Trump and Netanyahu both have to do something to rescue their sagging approval ratings.
