The Tennessee Holler (@thetnholler) on Threads 🔥CNN ON ZOHRAN: “The most popular NYC Dem in a generation… most popular Democrat STATEWIDE… President Trump isn’t the only one who has the vapors about Zohran Mamdani.”

We elected a winner, folks! Turns out Mamdani is the most popular Dem in the state of NY!!! All those Republicans who thought they'd run in the midterms making an issue of our mayor are royally screwed. 😁

Opinion | A Congressional Candidate Feared by the Tech Oligarchs

Hey, NY! If you read just one thing today, make it this. A Trump super-pac is trying to stop Democrat Alex Bores from being elected to replace Jerry Nadler in NY19. Why? Because he quit the AI biz over it's involvement with ICE. We need an AI expert in Congress.

The Smug and Vacuous David Brooks Is Perfect for “The Atlantic” The former New York Times columnist is a one-man cottage industry of lazy cultural stereotyping.

A great piece that perfectly explains why David Brooks makes me sick.

Here's the full 60 Minutes episode about his cruel treatment of asylum seekers. Watch it and boycott CBS "News."https://www.threads.com/@laurendemingames/post/DTDeEHUDU4n?xmt=AQF0E5sNdDrO_5_0-FW_RlWjxB_GFyFSj5OOmwklP6Qcnj88JQ9mwdAlOnAulzcS4f58l7wc&slof=1

Trump ended Biden's asylum policy and protections for Venezuelans. He's been deporting Venezuelans who were here legally seeking asylum and showing up for their hearings as part of the long process to gain permanent asylum. He doesn't give a shite about those people; he just wants their oil.

Now that we know David Brooks knew Epstein, I'm re-upping this. Also, The @nytimes.com should fire Brooks.

The idea that David Brooks actually wrote that we don't have an Epstein class shows exactly how intellectually and morally poisoned the wealthy and intellectual class are. Honestly, David Brooks is the most useless opinion writer at the Times.

The very fact that any one human being or family is allowed to have this much power because of wealth is disgusting. If it were up to me, I would outlaw by taxing this kind of wealth.

Senator Lisa Murkowski cut a deal with Trump to exempt her state, Alaska, from the SNAP cuts. So, if you're a MAGA Alaskan who relies on SNAP, you'll be OK. But, your grandma in Alabama is screwed.
