The main achievement of the tech industry has been increasing the flow of money from people who make or do things to people who already have more money than they could spend in a hundred lifetimes

I notice that the ABC, Nexstar, and Sinclair statements don’t specify what Kimmel said or what was offensive about it, which I would very much like them to try to verbalize.

"…and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel.”

reminder that the vast majority of the people smearing Zohran Mamdani online for “antisemitism” over manufactured non-scandals are actual straight up Nazis

AG Sulzberger insists that @nytimes.com has no politics. In his Reuters lecture at @ox.ac.uk he stressed the independence of his newspaper. The idea is that they are non-partisan, above the fray. It’s simply not true. That’s the most damning part: pretending your paper no viewpoint. 1/

just going to note that Josh Barro’s daddy got him into the university at which he taught and Mamdani’s daddy didn’t.

I guess Mamdani didn’t know to check that box

Among other things, I'm just so pissed that a country that once made winning WWII its whole personality is now building concentration camps

CUOMO CONCESSION SPEECH!!!

Can we all give #BradLander a big hand for throwing himself on the tracks in front of the Cuomo train, because it's starting to look like it worked.

One of the things I said over and over again for four years was that Eric Adams succeeded because Wiley/Garcia didn’t form a coalition until it was too late. It was a .5% win, and people treated it like a landslide. This is what RCV can deliver when candidates see success in each other.

Authenticity - we’re about to see a loooot of millennial campaigns like this one.

Carly Rae Jepsen's 'E·MO·TION' Turns 10 There’s a recent Chris Fleming standup bit that kicks off with him chastising a friend for daring to have a crush at a time like this.

Carly Rae Jepsen released 'E•MO•TION' 10 years ago today. A look back at an instant classic:

When Dobbs came down, the media rightly saw it as the culmination of a decades long effort to eliminate abortion rights by the conservative legal movement. When Skrmetti came down, the media blamed trans people and not that same conservative legal machine.

It's the same court and lawyers.

Twenty years ago the Republican party stood for huge tax cuts for the rich and wars of choice in the middle east, but then Donald Trump totally remade the party and realigned American poltiics, and now the Republica party stands for...huge tax cuts for the rich and wars of choice in the middle east.

The moderates got Joe Biden as president and Eric Adams as mayor and somehow their story is that they need to take back power from the left

And remember, taxpayers are the ones who pay the settlements in these lawsuits, which ran over $200,000,000 for the NYPD just in the last year.

I wonder if the costs came out of their own budget or retirement funds they might be a little more circumspect.

An editorial cartoon of MLK standing in front of chaos and wreckage with the words, "I plan to lead another non-violent march tomorrow"

Posting this 1967 Birmingham News editorial cartoon for all the people who don't realize that this is how MLK was viewed by a big chunk of white America.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence.

They are in charge.

i don't live in new york, have no affiliation with anyone involved in their mayoral race, and face no obligation to coddle potential new york voters so i can confidently say the people who are going to vote for cuomo because he's "tough enough to fight trump" are all pea-brain doo doo head morons

the literal history of the united states is groups of americans taking their grievances to the streets, often in ways far more violent than anything we have experienced in a generation

The California situation shows both why Cuomo is winning & why it would be a disaster if he did:

New York is next & they need a serious fighter, not smarmy salesman like Newsom

Audra mcdonald is giving the performance of everyones lifetime every night. This is… nuts.
