Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…
Brad Lander commits to cosponsoring the Block The Bombs Act if elected, which would ban the US government from transferring cluster bombs, JDAMs, artillery and tank shells, and other munitions to the Israeli government.
The Cut, a mag focused on fashion editorials and entertainment, published a guide to assisting MN during ICE raids: signposting to fundraisers, supporting volunteering for school and grocery runs, legal observer training. Immigrants are “sheltering in place”. Those events should shock us more

Bought it used and have only had one fix in six years.

Chuck Schumer is either allowing eight of his colleagues to be the sin eaters who take the blame for passing this shutdown deal, or he’s genuinely powerless to hold his conference together. Either way, he should be out of leadership tomorrow morning.
I’m in Tokyo (!) and just spotted Zohran Mamdani on the Shinjuku giant cat billboard. Good job to folks back home!
