Who wants to be a trillionaire? Don’t laugh. That’s exactly where America’s oligarchic policies are taking us.

Yeah, so we knew this was coming, but not how bloody fast it was coming.

one thing that other candidates need to learn from mamdani is how to deliver the most cold blooded attacks on an opponent with a smile on your face

JUST IN: Democrats have swept the 3 supreme court elections in Pennsylvania.

They beat back a concerted GOP effort to erase their majority; instead, they'll keep a 5-2 edge on this very important court.

If you needed more evidence of a deep need for change in leadership, look no further.

I know this is ridiculous, but can someone help me out? I have 666 followers, and even though I thought I wasn't superstitious, it seems I am a little. It's irrational, but please, follow me, just one of you.

Governor-elect Mikie Sherrill bucked an historic trend β€” helping her party win three consecutive gubernatorial elections in New Jersey for the first time since 1961.

Cuomo's campaign was a cesspool of racism and bigotry. Never, ever, ever forget that. Never let anyone who worked for him on this campaign worm themselves back into any kind of respectability.

Yes. All the empirics on misinformation indicate that the way to defeat bad ideas is to mock and marginalize them. Constantly declaring "hey the far right isn't so bad" is a terrible strategy both morally and electorally.

Dems should be way more comfortable saying "look at these fucking psychos"

Grievance grifting is a lucrative business among the fools on the right who are easily separated from their money.

It's not just what Andrew Cuomo is sayingβ€”it's who's funding him.

The single largest donor to a pro-Cuomo SuperPAC is Airbnb cofounder/board member Joe Gebbia, who promotes vile and racist messages about immigrants.

seems that RFK is clearing the path for his CDC to do tuskegee syphillis experiments as a matter of course. in other news, RFK is a genuine monster who relishes in the pain and suffering of those he feels he has control or dominion over

Trump is delivering on his promise to create more babies? Who knew?

There's something just plain gross about all these rich, elderly white men obsessing over the wimmin failing to provide the fatherland with enough babies.Yuck.
