This is really just an illustration of how out of touch CUOMO is. Mamdani is not rich, but if he was, that is what Dem socialists want for everybody: no one goes without, not everyone is poor.

4 million people work in higher ed, the largest employer in 10 states, second largest employer in 10 more, and in 60 of the 100 biggest cities

ProPublica has found ICE agents broke car windows:

A very Bluesky thing is people who agree with you but are upset because they think you should have made the point quicker, simpler, stupider, and louder

just found out about the band "barenaked ladies' and i gotta say what the hell. those are fully clothed men. what a ripoff

this is where I post from

Army veteran and US citizen arrested in California immigration raid warns it could happen to anyone A U.S. Army veteran arrested during an immigration raid at a California marijuana farm says he was sprayed with tear gas and pepper spray before being dragged from his vehicle on his way to work.

ICE detained a veteran and U.S. citizen for three days.

They didn’t let him contact his family or a lawyer. They didn’t let him change or shower. They didn’t give him a reason for his detention.

The kind of platitudes people often offer about God's plan are now transferring their platitudes to their new god

Great, more apartments up for grabs, see ya

Ai is just cis male MLM and you can't convince me otherwise

Watching this elephant gyrate around the court has awakened something in me

Well it finally happened ......im gay for an elephant @newyorkliberty.bsky.social

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it.

“When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.”
