The Democratic establishment's ugly reaction to Zohran Mamdani reveals an unpleasant truth.

They would rather lose elections than change.

The addiction to rich donors and consultants is killing the party. But Mamdani shows a path out. An analysis.

Some of those people are currently on the staff of elected Republicans, in fact. They’re part of the present of the GOP.
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.

look Charlie Kirk started, maintained, & promoted turning point usa’s professor watchlist

I’ve been on it for over a decade and until this year I was the *only* UVM professor on it which means

his life’s work = my death threats
the media rush to canonize charlie kirk is legitimately maybe one of the weirdest things of this nature i have ever seen in my life

Golden and Collins prove time and time and again they are just useful idiots.
yeah man, please make my 85 year
old great aunt prove her citizenship to vote in rural georgia, this definitely isn’t reminiscent of anything in the american past
🧵 There are a lot of misleading claims out there about the SAVE Act. Let me set the record straight: I voted for the SAVE Act for the simple reason that American elections are for Americans. Requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote is common sense.

A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.

My LinkedIn account has been hacked. LinkedIn "support" sends me to a 3rd party to verify identity. They want biometric data and for me to check a couple of boxes giving them my data. It feels like a visit to the Wallet Inspector. LinkedIn support is not even an AI.

Anyone who thinks otherwise hasn't spoken to the families with trans kids forced to move from state to state just to make sure they can get the healthcare they need, only to have Trump try to shut it down nationwide. They aren't some abstraction or poll number--they're families who love their kids

April 25 1933: With astonishing speed just 1 month after passage of the Enabling Act, the German government issues the "Law against Overcrowding in Schools and Higher Education." Though the law's title was ambiguous, its aim was to remove all foreign and Jewish students. Institutions fell into line.
