I lived in Weehawken on Liberty Place for 5 years in the 80s. Had that view every morning as I waited for the bus. 🌇

How to Protest Safely: What to Bring, What to Do, and What to Avoid If you’re planning to hit the streets, here’s what you need to know.

Americans are taking to the streets by the tens of thousands to protest a plethora of President Donald Trump’s second-term policies. If you’re planning to protest, here’s what you need to know.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Stop calling it that fucking name. It’s a concentration camp.

Notice the pattern? Republicans work to advance their worst bills in the middle of the night—hoping you’re asleep while they attack your healthcare, your rights, and your future.

The vile NY Post is just getting started. This shit will every day until the election.

And then Buehler takes the mound…

I organize rural Dems. I raise money to fund rural Dem nominees. I’m doing the work. My neighbors are doing the work.

If you’re not in the ring getting your ass kicked with me, I’m not listening to your opinion or criticism.

The Onion NYT ad. The headline of the editorial says “CONGRESS, NOW MORE THAN EVER OUR NATION NEEDS YOUR COWARDICE”

EXCLUSIVE — The Onion has a full-page ad in today’s NYT featuring part of an editorial calling out congressional fecklessness towards Trump. They also sent a copy of their latest issue to every lawmaker.

My report, with an excerpt from the full editorial: www.thehandbasket.co/p/exclusive-...

If people really find this to be such an easy conclusion, then Congressional authority should be easy to get.

So why don’t they insist on a vote?

They know this isn’t “progressive” resistance. They want to marginalize it as such because on top of this war being ILLEGAL, it’s also deeply unpopular.

Why are no headlines focusing on the unconstitutional and dictatorial nature of this action?

1. He killed my friend Ward Harkavy 2. He hasn’t lived in NYC for 30 years 3. He was behind “Vote For Cuomo, Not the Homo” in 1977 (his dad v. Koch) 4. He defunded the MTA 5. He covered up killing 12,000 New Yorkers in nursing homes 6. He killed New Yorkers by delaying Covid vaccines at Met Stadium in a dick wagging fight with de Blasio 7. He’s harassed at least 13 women (& blamed it on being Italian!) 8. He’s Netenyahu’s lawyer! 9. He ran interference for Harvey Weinstein! 10. He sued for his women accusers’ OB/GYB records!

10 reasons not to rank Andrew Cuomo *at all*

Now that’s how to do it💥

I’ll be there.

The way to do it. Please share.

It’s my show of the year so far. I was lucky to be up front and could see how much it meant to them on their faces. Thanks for turning me on to them so long ago.

YouTube video by Brad Lander for NYC Brad Lander: "I'll keep coming back to court, week after week"

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process.

But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things.

That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

The newspaper. I was about 8 or 9. He always seemed to know the answer to any question I would have, so I asked how he became so smart. He didn’t say a word, just tapped the newspaper in front of him. I became a lifelong newspaper reader immediately.

RFK Jr. ousts entire CDC vaccine advisory committee Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has removed every member of a scientific committee that advises the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on how to use vaccines.

RFK Jr.‘s extreme anti-vax views — and his related conflicts of interest — were a huge problem during his confirmation process.

So he promised not to change the vaccine advisory panel.

Today, he fired every single expert on that panel. It's a public health disaster.

She makes everything she’s in better.💥

NYC friends-It’d be a really bad idea to let this guy back in.

Great interview. I worked for Spring’s distributor in the ‘70s and her stuff really sold. Outrageous💥

It helps to take the bat off your shoulder.

It’s already clear that Trump’s roughly $3 billion and counting in corruption scandals are 10X worse than Watergate. So why don’t we treat it as such??

Give it a name: Cryptogate

Demand public hearings. Urge state prosecutors to investigate Trump’s family. Take it to the streets

Column tomorrow

George Floyd should be alive today.

He should be raising his daughter, living his life.

5 years later, we owe him more than thoughts and hashtags.

His daughter said, “My daddy changed the world.”

Let’s stop failing her, and him.

Congress must pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.
