From the top rope

📽️ WATCH: We reviewed 700+ videos, hours of footage from ICE protesters and counterprotesters in Portland.

Trump justified the deployment of National Guard troops by calling the city "War ravaged," with an ICE office under siege. That's not what we found.

"'They’re spending more money than I would even tax them,' [Mamdani] said in an interview with MSNBC last week."

This is the message. Make it clear that these billionaires aren't just worried about losing money. They're worried about losing the ability to exchange their money for power.

There will be 12 gazillion columns this week but the real takeaway is that the strategy of people with all the money + power telling everyone to shut up & wait in line isn’t delivering as it once did because they got so drunk on their own hype they starting using cruelty and violence for the lulz /1

nyc electing a muslim democratic socialist after nine months of trumpism makes me suspect trumpism is not the historical inevitability stephen miller desperately wants us to believe it is

Democratic party leadership has been on autopilot for ten years, they weren't losing to fascism, fascism isn't popular enough for them to lose to fascism, they were allowing it to fill the void where their leadership should have been. Tonight we're seeing that we have other options. They should too.

Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant."

We're all going to write pieces about what you can learn from tonight but it's actually pretty simple: The frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

So many predicted close races, which is understandable. But turnout favored the anti-kings…. And blew the predictions up. 2026, and 2028….. stand back and stand by

we needed all of this. it’s why i rail on doomers and tell them doing that shit is literal voter suppression. defeatism begets defeatism. momentum fucking matters to keep people engaged.

My tent has a sign outside that says “consequences?”. Anyone who answers yes is in.

AOC: I have to tell you, in my traveling across the country, I am hearing and have been seeing consistent things from everyday people. And it is that they are terrified, they are frustrated, they are angry, and they are shocked by a president violating the values that we hold dear

AOC: We have a future to fight for, and we're either going to do that together or you're going to be left behind. It's not about Progressive. It's not moderate, it's not liberal. This is about do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now? And the assignment is you come together…

I sure am enjoying No Kings 3 tonight.

(around an image of Zohran Mamdani and the Indivisible logo) CONGRATULATIONS Zohran Mamdani NEW YORK CITY MAYOR

Congratulations to Mayor-elect @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social on convincing millions to believe in politics and the future of the Democratic Party! His seemingly-longshot win represents a stunning rejection of the outdated, loser version of the Democratic Party that brought Trump to power twice.

There are more of us than there are of them.

The Captain America sit down and shoot straight meme. I made it say: So, you said you're going to leave New York.

Blumenthal: We’re going to continue finding more of the ballroom donors who evidently didn’t want their names revealed. And let me name them: BlackRock, Susquehanna International, Nvidia, OpenAI, Vantive, and Extremity Care.

And so, we will use every possible resource to expose this corruption to

Yawning at the limited government folks warning that a democratic socialist mayor of New York is an existential threat, but who remain guardedly optimistic about an authoritarian president.

”mumdumi” another great data-point in the whole “everyone is 12 years old” theory of politics now

lord help me, I have given final approval on the book files. whatever glaring errors I should have noticed but did not remain to be discovered in the finished books!

Dems want FCC probe of "60 Minutes" trimming Trump Binance pardon exchange A note said the extended version of the interview had been "condensed for clarity."

"The video cut O'Donnell's final question: "So not concerned about the appearance of corruption with this?"

"Also omitted was Trump's stammering reply: "I can't say, because — I can't say — I'm not concerned. I don't — I'd rather not have you ask the question."

Chicago woman dragged out of her car after colliding with ICE demands accountability The arrest of Dayanne Figueroa highlights growing concerns about the use of force against U.S. citizens and due process. She was released after a few hours without charges.

NEWS: Federal agents crashed with woman’s car, pointed guns at her, dragged her out by legs, tossed her in a minivan, held her and (eventually) let her go without charges. This as Chicagoans say the immigration blitz is out of control. (DHS blames her.)

CULTURE TRENDS SNAP beneficiaries threaten to ransack stores over government shutdown One mother claims taxpayers must feed her children as SNAP benefits face cuts By Alba Cuebas-Fantauzzi • Fox News Published October 31, 2025 2:16pm EDT

So there were some AI-generated videos that purported to show Black women ranting about SNAP benefits, and... Fox News is reporting on this like these are real people. They're not! They're AI!

This is truly insane. Total unreality. www.foxnews.com/media/snap-b...

You would be kicked out of any writer’s room in existence if you had the villains celebrating a Great Gatsby-themed party while taking away food benefits from millions of poor people.

In the eyes of the establishment, there’s literally nothing Mamdani can do to prove he’s not an antisemite, and literally nothing the openly fascist trump regime can do to prove they are, up to and including intentionally dressing like literal, historical Nazis
