Moshik Temkin: "Completely ignored in the madness of this mayoral campaign in NYC is the fact that Mamdani already defeated Cuomo in the primary and he IS the Democratic candidate. If Cuomo had won and Mamdani then decided to run as an independent, establishment Democrats would lose their minds."

Liberals need to grow skills for people to learn, grow & join together rather than a narrow gauge of politician purity. Graham is the real deal, an authentic, empathetic, caring member of our Maine community. Career politicians groomed for the race make terrible representatives of the people.

I know it's a fool's errand to expect anything from the media but "President posts video of himself dumping diarrhea on America" is an important thing to call attention to for a dozen reasons

Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

Whoa. Chicago mayor calls for a general strike; now we're talking

Retired Army Sgt. Brian Wofford spoke to me this morning at the Oklahoma City #NoKings protest. Didn’t expect him to be carrying his DD214 so I asked some warmup questions like when he got out and whether his injury was service-related.

He paused while describing the car bomb in Iraq to say this:

Across all the major outlets — NYT, WSJ, WaPo, LAT, CNN, ABC, CBS, Fox News, NBC, CNBC, NPR, Bloomberg — the only outlet without a No Kings story on its home page is CBS News.

For every other outlet, it's near the top. Even Fox News is running with "Nationwide unrest looms as thousands mobilize"

Shuck Chuck.

The most dangerous form of government is theocracy. 

Because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they're on a mission from God.

Horrific.

YES, We have OUR candidate for CD2 Maine for Congress!

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

Ezra Klein has been speaking a lot on red states and rural Democrats and here’s the thing…he shouldn’t.

He has no idea what he’s talking about.

On point.

An honest leader, Slovenian President Natasa Pirc Musar.

Confederate leaders and most Southerners shared this outlook in the Civil War. It didn’t turn out well for them.

As Ellison Buys Out TikTok, US Moves Toward One-Party Media The Ellison duo taking over both CBS and CNN, as well as controlling a major social media network like TikTok, would be dangerous for democracy.
