I don’t get it, Mamdani didn’t go on Rogan or post any solo work out videos that I could find, he just walked around town telling voters about his ideas to help them

Mamdani stood up to Tom Homan.

He’s stood up for immigrants, trans people and all marginalized individuals.

A Muslim immigrant has just become Mayor of NYC at a time when the President is doing everything he can to vilify and destroy immigrants.

It’s a huge friggin win.

If Andrew Cuomo is the right choice for fascist, right-wing billionaires, he’s the wrong choice for NYC.

This isn’t complicated.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Adelita Grijalva was elected to serve the people of Arizona’s 7th district in SEPTEMBER. It is now NOVEMBER and Speaker Johnson STILL refuses to swear her in. It’s completely undemocratic.

They gutted the Washington Post. CBS. NYT. Now Teen Vogue.

The point isn't to bring in more conservatives. They've reached that saturation point.

They are killing the fourth estate and buying up the social media to control the messages we see. These were all targeted to disarm the left of truth.

Because cauliflower is five dollars a head and you can buy five pizzas with the same money.

It’s not that folks don’t want to be healthy. They can’t afford to be healthy.

Wil Wheaton @wilwheaton.net · 4d

Friendly reminder that Republicans are garbage, entirely devoid of empathy, compassion, or honor. They are terrified little babies who are filled with hate, scared to death of anything they don't understand. And they don't understand most things, because they are also deeply incurious.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Prince Andrew is no longer Prince Andrew. He’s now Mr Windsor.

Why? Because he lost his title for being involved in a pedophile ring.

President Trump should no longer be President.

Both men should be behind bars.

The average American family has ~$6000 of their taxes go to corporate subsidies and ~$100 of their taxes go to SNAP for 42 million hungry Americans.

Remember—we don't lack money to serve our neighbors in need, we lack the money needed to satisfy billionaire greed.

All the flowers thrown at the fascist's feet for his "cease fire" can now be collected and put on the graves of those still being killed by Netanyahu and his ilk.

Qasim Rashid, Esq. @qasimrashid.com · 6d

Since the “ceasefire,” Israeli military has killed more than 100 Palestinians, including a 9 year old Palestinian child in the West Bank, shooting him in the head.

Netanyahu’s new strikes in Gaza killed 104 Palestinians, including 46 children.

This is genocide.

The regime’s attacks on dissent are escalating. Trump’s goal is to silence opposition through fear, but the American people will never submit to his corrupt rule. The best way to protect our rights is by continuing to exercise them.

So here's Andrew Cuomo reacting to Maria Bartiromo wondering if Mamdani will "change the look of New York" and have Muslim women "completely covered up," telling her that Mamdani "doesn't understand New York culture" because he has "dual citizenship" and "he's a citizen of Uganda."
