Zohran Mamdani ran on freezing the rent in NYC.

Abigail Spanberger ran on supporting fired federal workers and lowering the cost of living in VA.

Mikie Sherrill ran on lowering utility bills in NJ.

Ensuring people can afford to live a decent life is the path forward.

I can’t believe they called prop 50 the moment polls closed. That tells you something. Most of these races were called within 45 minutes. It’s a BLOWOUT, y’all. THAT is what we call a MANDATE.

The President of the United States is so upset about his failed campaign for a Nobel Prize that he's now trying to claim someone else's prize as his own.

Pathetic.

No Kings in Los Angeles.

#NoKings Miami!

As Californians take to the streets today to stand up against the President’s authoritarian playbook, I urge everyone to stay safe and demonstrate peacefully.

Don’t give in to his provocations. Our strength is in our unity and peace.

Americans have gotten more than $21 billion back in their bank accounts after being cheated and scammed by big corporations, thanks to the CFPB.

But Trump and his Administration love grifters and scammers.

So they're trying to kill the agency holding them accountable.

Should we hold off on the reveal of our new, so-called Social Media project?

More than a decade ago, I sat down with @marcmaron.bsky.social in his garage to tape something new called a podcast. This time, he came to me to record his last episode.

We talked about the power of conviction, decency in an age of division, and the true story of America.

CDC leaders on why the left: “I resigned because I could not be part of the weaponization of public health and CDC… we should always be questioning - but you shouldn’t have a preconceived idea before you have the data.”

What was post-war life like in Florida?

Do you still have to press ‘X’ to kiss your wife?

Congrats to Stephen Colbert for never bending the knee.

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.

America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.

Watch and share his message.

Donny also can’t be bothered to hold his salute for an appropriate length of time — and Donny can’t be bothered to remove his cap during the National Anthem. Donny’s gonna wear whatever he wants, and Donny’s gonna do whatever he wants. that’s just the way Mad Kings roll — because, as always, fuck you, that’s why. who’s going to tell him he can’t? Donny also can’t be bothered to find appropriate topics for his speech. let’s skip ahead to the crowning moment of what the fuck — because, well, what the fuck? “…a trophy wife. it didn’t work out too well. but it doesn’t— and that doesn’t work out too well, I must tell you. a lot of trophy wives. doesn’t work out. but it made him happy for a little while, at least. but he found a new wife. he sold his little boat, he got a big yacht, one of the biggest yachts anywhere in the world. he moved for a time to Monte Carlo, but he lived a good life. and time went by and he got bored, and fifteen years later, the company that he sold to called him, and they said, ‘the housing business is not for us.’ you have to understand, when Bill Levitt was hot, when he had momentum, he’d go to the job sites every night. he’s pick up every loose nail. he’d pick up every scrap off wood. if there was a bolt or a screw laying on the ground he’d pick it up.” that was Donny’s big takeaway to the graduating cadets: don’t marry a trophy wife. nothing but headaches. they get so mad at you when you fuck a porn star and pay her hush money to keep her mouth shut about it.

"I think the cuts that are now proposed by NIH are gonna hurt" -- RFK Jr admits that NIH cuts will hurt people

"Probably"?!

The United States is suffering from the largest measles outbreak in modern history. Children have died.

And America’s top health official says this about the solution to a horrific and deadly disease outbreak.

Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20? Anybody can throw a mask on and run around and terrorize people of color without any regard for the law because your agency does not have proper protocols to make sure your agents are clearly identified"

They’ll kick millions of the poor off Medicaid then make it pricier for them to buy their own insurance.
