Progressive pressure to back Mamdani

If you are an elected New York Dem and you are not endorsing the ***WINNER OF THE DEM PRIMARY***, you are part of the problem.

Also, I did not think Iโ€™d have to deal with religious pro-life rhetoric here, but here is my response:

It is fine to believe God wants you to bear your inconvenient child.

It is even fine to believe that abortion is murder.

It is not fine to expect a pluralistic nation to make your belief law.

I will never forget that the week Qatar decided to bribe the president of the United States with a plane, CNN decided to focus on the age and health of an ex-president.

Shame.

100 DAYS...of lying, grifting, lawbreaking, division, incompetence, ignorance, illegal deportations, self-aggrandizement, vulgarity, self-pity, cruelty, ignoring the Supreme Court & due process while attacking: the Media, Universities, Law Firms, the Courts & Journalists.

1362 Days to go...

AOC: We saw Majorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. How much did you make? How much did you make off of peopleโ€™s despair? How much did you make off of that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We canโ€™t accept it

At least 1 NC Social Security office saved from closing. What about the other 3? DOGE removed three of North Carolinaโ€™s four Social Security offices that were set to close from its list of lease terminations. Rep. Chuck Edwards says at least one office is now set to remain open.

โ€œMany do not have transportation or they are homebound or in the hospital and donโ€™t have access or simply donโ€™t know how to use the internet... What happens to them? What happens to the person who canโ€™t do it online and now their local office has closed?โ€

We're doomed. We need brave, bold leaders willing to be forcibly removed. Instead we have a crew channeling their inner barbie holding up their relabeled auction paddles.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

When the wreckage and dust of what these people are doing to our country has settled and the people have finally had enough to throw these jackals out of office, we will never forget the people who enabled it, despite their protestations they werenโ€™t willing accomplices. Never.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

It should be a source of profound embarrassment that a bunch of FedSoc lifers are taking a more vocal and principled stand against the corrupt Eric Adams deal than most elected Dems.

You thought the guy who had already issued a Muslim Ban was a better choice than a bi-racial, brillant, woman? You misogynistic fools, you've condemned your own people and many others.

A New York Times article headline reads: "Top F.B.I. Agent in New York Vows to โ€˜Dig Inโ€™ After Removals at Agency". The subheading states: "James E. Dennehy, the highly respected leader of the largest and most important field office in the bureau, said in an email to staff that the F.B.I. was in a 'battle of our own.'". Below the text, there is a photo of a man standing at a podium with the seal of the Department of Justice. An American flag and another flag are in the background. The caption under the photo reads: "The top agent at the F.B.I.'s field office in New York, James Dennehy, in September. Jefferson Siegel for The New York Times."

I Do Not Obey in Advance I do not obey in advance.

Right now I am terribly worried for my country, concerned for our planet, scared for the future of my children, and greatly saddened that 77 million Americans seem okay with all of this.
