The Meaning of Mamdani I was eating lukewarm barbecue in a bridge-and-tunnel-crowd besotted, faux Texas place on Eighth Avenue with a friend who’d lived his whole life between Queens and Brooklyn.

A take as hot and doughy as a fresh bagel from McShveltstein’s on 3rd

While Americans go hungry, President Donald Trump was partying it up.

The president spent Friday night hosting a Great Gatsby–themed Halloween celebration at Mar-a-Lago, just hours before tens of millions of low-income Americans were set to lose access to food stamps.

In this election, the people have two separate but equally important choices: a city they can afford or the billionaire-backed politics of the past.

Calm down, liberals. Donald Trump's demand that the DOJ pay him $230 in taxpayer dollars is just an opening bid in a negotiation. He's unlikely to walk away with more than $180 million. Feel silly now?

Today in Kent, Ohio. Yes, THAT Kent.

A psycho Trumper charged into the No Kings rally, throwing punches, assaulted a woman. He was armed. The crowd tackled him.

I considered going to Kent for the protest. It's an hour drive for me. Went to downtown Cleveland instead.

I know Fairhope fairly well. My hometown is barely 100 miles away. My HS bestie was from there. I can assure you that this was not the most lewd conduct in Fairhope before breakfast today. It didn’t break the top 25. If only she’d been part of a bachelorette party…

Protesters formed a human banner Saturday morning at S.F.'s Ocean Beach, spelling out “NO KINGS” and “YES ON 50,” encouraging the passage of a measure on the November ballot to redraw California’s congressional districts in response to Texas’ GOP-focused remapping.
