It must be hard living in NYC and having to choose between certified sex pest Andrew Cuomo and the guy who wants to lower your rent, Zohran Mamdani.

Tough decision, I’m sure.

NY Governor Kathy Hochul inside 26 Federal Plaza now, seeking answers from DHS/ICE about the arrest of NYC Comptroller Brad Lander, who is still being detained. @thecity.nyc "How long is this going to take, I don't think he has a long rap sheet," Hochul says to agents.

Four Men Escape From Migrant Detention Facility in Newark

I’m pro hungry immigrants escaping their concentration camps. For the record.

“People were hungry and got very angry and started to rebel against what was going on in the detention center”

…i think this is what they call “state-run media”?

Just heard someone say “he sounds like he spends a lot of time on Facebook” and hooo boy everyone’s immediate understanding of what that means should be a brand crisis for Meta

Certainly worth repeating in the times we are in..

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

and that’s that on that

There are trans Americans right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist.

Well, I am. We are. We will.

Between Noem doing Leni Riefenstahl videos of herself in front of overcrowded prisoners in El Salvador prison and ICE daily disappearing people, the U.S. executive branch is a moral abomination.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

This is also why I keep saying people don't understand what is happening. It's not stitched together in a way to create a compelling narrative in the media. And Dems are dropping the ball by not creating their own talking points and hammering them over and over again.

18F is *precisely* what Musk and team claim should exist within government. But when his team found it, they destroyed it, because it is evidence that government works well (can’t have that!), and because like Zelensky, 18F didn’t bend the knee.

Before asserting that something like this is happening because he says he can do it, journalists should ask what the statutory authority is, and if it is unclear or nonexistent, the headline and story should reflect that.

This is how it’s done.

I know we can’t run around on fire every time Trump says something but he appears to have just announced the new US policy on Gaza which is to take ownership of it, ethnically cleanse it of the 1.8 million Palestinians there and maintain a long term ownership stake as it’s “developed.”

In 1933 The Institut für Sexualwissenschaft was destroyed and burned. Things like this are like a digital book burning! It’s a clear message from his administration! We must fight back on every front!

are you kidding? you’ve got to be kidding. if you’re not, you’re complicit.

who on your team approved this msg? are they trying to lose you your next election?

you think we’re worried about the price of pizza?

These are the same picture.

Watching this on repeat how is your day going?

The inside story of Harris' lost gamble on Joe Rogan, Beyoncé and a late Texas rally A new book by Jonathan Allen of NBC News and Amie Parnes of The Hill has details about the Harris campaign's botched attempt to schedule an interview with Joe Rogan.

“Why didn’t Kamala go on Rogan?” they all screeched in op-eds and tweets, for months on end.

Maybe, just maybe, because Rogan, in the tank for the GOP, made it near impossible for her to come on?

New reporting:

Trump Leans on WWII Japanese Incarceration Law to Deport Immigrants The Alien Enemies Act provides sweeping powers to detain or deport foreign nationals. It’s ripe for abuse, experts say.

Our government last invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1789 to justify the racist internment of thousands of Japanese-Americans during World War II.

We refuse to repeat history.

Amen, Alexis.

And the people who torment them are among the weakest and most cowardly in the world.

It never was about those things, but it has never been this blatant.

I tend to stay even-keeled about this stuff. I am not alarmist, I report the news as accurately as possible.

But the language is scary. It is precisely the dehumanizing language used to justify atrocity.
