Mamdani: "I just want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams who will call you to stay out of jail. I won't be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own."

Curious, what were the radiological effects of such a 'small' warhead?

🧵:

Last June, more than 5 million Americans joined #NoKings rallies across the country, protesting President Trump's authoritarianism. And this Saturday, with your help, it's going to be even bigger and better.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

I had planned to stay out of the Maine Senate race for a while and respectfully consider the competing visions of both major candidates.

But I can’t do that now.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Boston No Kings! won't be your average protest.

Yes, we’ll have speakers-but also live music, theater & art, & more than 30 resistance groups ready to turn your outrage into action.

Because in Mass, we don’t just rally—we organize.

Peaceful? Yup. Passive? Never. Join us!

Pritzker: "If the Constitution means anything -- and I guess we all are questioning that right now -- the Insurrection Act cannot be invoked ... they just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize especially blue cities in blue states."

A great idea: a fake Ben Franklin Quotes account, but it's all Planet Earth narration by David Attenborough:

"A wandering Albatross is last to arrive"

"A dead sea lion is always a good opportunity"

But will they have the same card to play when TSA and ATC stop showing up?

This is pretty outrageous.

Trump is stupid and he's venal and he's ignorant, but this is pretty clear evidence that his staff is only showing him false information.

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."
