Zohran Mamdani is the bright future of the Democratic Party β€” brimming with excellent ideas about what working families need.

I was delighted to chat with him earlier today.

If you're a New Yorker, don't forget to cast your vote for him by Tuesday, Nov. 4.

MINUTES of Proceedings: Pretrial Conference Held. The Court preadmits all stipulated exhibits. These exhibits are not in evidence without their relevance or significance explained on the record before closing arguments.
The Court finds that the deposition transcripts of Defendants' witnesses offered by Plaintiffs are admissible under Federal Rule of Evidence 801(d)(2) and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 32. The Court reserves ruling on whether the depositions are excludable under Federal Rule of Evidence 403 until the end of trial pending Defendants' further objections and counter designations. The Court finds that Exhibit 1161, Defendants' Responses to Plaintiffs' First Set of Interrogatories offered by Defendants, is inadmissible. Exhibit 1161 is therefore excluded. Exhibits 301, 302, 303, 304, 306 are pre-admitted under Rule 1006. The Court reserves final ruling on their ultimate admissibility until Defendants have had more opportunity to review their accuracy.

It's been 35 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress.

Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

It is not a coincidence that Trump razed the part of the White House where so much history has been made by and for women.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

I've seen people claim that "natural immunity" to measles is good for our immune systems and vaccines cause autism.

The Auctioneer does not predate Shirley Jackson’s The Lottery, as I had incorrectly stated in my article in The Guardian. The Lottery was published in 1948 while The Auctioneer was published in 1976. My bad. Thank you to @datlow.bsky.social for pointing this out to me.

I read them front to back. I’m spoiled by editors like @datlow.bsky.social who curate anthologies, and I trust that there is intent in the order.

I am usually reading both a novel and anthology and chose based on my mood and time available to read. I prefer to read short fiction in one sitting.
