Zohran Mamdani is getting a new generation of young people excited about politics. My own granddaughter is knocking on doors for him in the final stretch of the NYC mayoral race. I was pleased to speak with him ahead of Tuesday's election. https://youtu.be/rqU0DAjg0RA?si=ZYVwyxSyA9xdR4bj

Lawsuit time.
I'm a Yank living in UK. Just a few months ago, the peoples King was instructed to throw a state visit for two of the Epstein group. Don't think for a minute that the Brits are morally superior.

BREAM: Can you not swear in Adelita Grijalva, though?

MIKE JOHNSON: There is a precedent for doing a pro forma session swearing in, but we are not engaging in regular business right now

The USDA is the fail safe for SNAP.

They have a contingency fund to ensure it’s covered in the event of a shutdown.

They’re refusing.

Grocery stores stepped up to try and help by offering discounts to any SNAP recipients and the USDA told them they had to stop.

Starvation as a policy choice.

Sometimes I wonder if they’re stupid or complicit. They have to know that deportation, wealth hoarding, isolationism, and tariffs are bad for the economy. How many times to republican policies have to cause a recession before they get it?

I’m just going to say it…

It’s pretty damn validating to hear Barack Obama say the same things we’ve been shouting for months, and longer.

There’s a special place in hell for anyone who can watch this and feel joy.

Meiselas: Right now, this idea of the bully has been glorified, and we have to disabuse people of that notion and say, “Nah, that’s weakness.” Stop blaming your problems marginalized groups.

We have to proudly support communities that have been under attack—’cause they’re human beings, dammit.
