IT'S NOT AN "IMMIGRATION CRACKDOWN" IF THEY ARE HARMING AND KIDNAPPING AND TERRORIZING PEOPLE REGARDLESS OF THEIR IMMIGRATION STATUS.

IT'S RACISM AND INTIMIDATION.

American mainstream political media operates under the belief that whichever candidate or party wins the majority of white voters holds the mandate, regardless of whether that candidate or party wins the election.

Trump won in 2024 by 1.5%pts and the press acted like he got a mandate to be god-emperor, can’t wait for them to be dismissive of victories in places the Democratic Party hasn’t won in 20 years

The Illinois legislature had passed the “Illinois Bivens Act,” allowing people to sue ICE agents in state court. Just waiting for Pritzker’s signature.

Democratic party leadership has been on autopilot for ten years, they weren't losing to fascism, fascism isn't popular enough for them to lose to fascism, they were allowing it to fill the void where their leadership should have been. Tonight we're seeing that we have other options. They should too.

speaks volumes that Trump's response to tonight's resounding defeat is to demand Republicans redouble efforts to rig elections

Pass Voter Reform, Voter ID, No Mail-In Ballots. Save our Supreme Court from “Packing,” No Two State addition, etc. TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER!!!

Schumer had a chance to repudiate the gutter racism and Islamophobia of Cuomo's campaign and he just fucking didn't. And that is disqualifying. He should be ashamed and we the voters should make sure he feels that shame.

Reporter: Today is election day in New York City. Did you vote for Mamdani or Cuomo?

Schumer: Look, I voted. And I look forward to working with the next mayor to help New York City.

sorry but it's really funny that the same type of centrist pundit freaks who are like "mamdani won't make good on his campaign promises so DON'T vote for him!" were the same ones who said "trump won't make good on his campaign promises so it's fine if he wins"

If the sandwich stayed whole, the defense meets its goal

Dave Jamieson @jamieson.bsky.social · 1d

The defense team presses Lairmore on whether the sandwich really 'exploded.' They return to the photo of the sandwich and wrapper on the ground.

"That sandwich hasn't exploded at all, has it?" defense asks.

"It looks like a little bit is coming out towards the bottom," Lairmore replies.

They aren't afraid of Mamdani, they are worried about what he would unleash among VOTERS. That those voters would say: "actually, we're not buying this centrist bullshit you've been shoveling for decades, we want something else." That's what's being litigated in these Dem elites are worried essays.
