I withstood the era of people telling me I should read Hillbilly Elegy because of where I'm from. Now I'm living free and easy in the era of people hating J.D. Vance, and I never lifted a finger.

At (another) Hampton’s fundraiser with Republican donors on Saturday, Andrew Cuomo said it plainly: he’s expecting Trump’s help to defeat us in November.

“I feel good about that,” Cuomo said.

New Yorkers won’t.

Justice Department Told Trump in May That His Name Is Among Many in the Epstein Files Bondi told president at the meeting that Justice also decided to not release more Jeffrey Epstein documents because of the presence of child pornography and the need to protect victims.

Exclusive: The Justice Department told President Trump in May that his name is among many in the Epstein files.

remember when Elon Musk straight up performed a Nazi salute, twice, on stage, and the NYT was like "hmm, huh, what can this mean, who can say"

Pete Hegseth Wondering Whether Uranium Would Be A Good Mixer WASHINGTON—Growing increasingly contemplative as he fantasized about a stiff drink after a long day at work, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth reportedly wondered Monday whether uranium might make a good mixer. “I feel like it could bring out the more chemical notes of gin in a really nice way without overpowering it,” said the Pentagon chief, […]

Bill de Blasio on Andrew Cuomo and That Nasty Times Op-Ed The former mayor has a few things to get off his chest.

Reading Bill De Blasio just slam the out of touch and reactionary NYT over and over again on NY Mag is better than espresso in the morning

The Times questioning Zohran’s experience kinda just boils down to ideology & racism but the idea of 33 being too young to hold a major political office is so funny. If he was a CEO of a startup that produced something worse than nothing they’d write a glowing feature on his new bold ideas.

Hundreds of people standing together and facing the camera in front of the Brooklyn Public Library, 1-25-25

On this frigid day in January, nearly 400 volunteers knocked on 11,717 doors to share our vision for a city working people can afford.

We are building a campaign unlike any other.
