BREAKING: Gavin Newsom just went into Houston, Texas of all places and brought the house down.

This part of his speech gives me chills.

STAND UP FOR DEMOCRACY!!

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

I concur.

Thank you, New York City.

Now let’s win.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 3: Earl Manigault

When he stepped onto the court, the world watched. No one dunked harder or jumped higher. But the GOAT never made it pro.

There are countless NYC stories like his. Brilliant talents lost to drugs or crime. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Americans voted for the Greater Good, while Fascists voted for Trump. Never Vote For Fascists Republicans ever again. I want Honesty and Truth and Our Democracy. Republicans are Non Americans 😡👊👊👏😎🇺🇸 hit the Repost Button

Thank you to all who gathered at St. Mark's Church in-the-Bowery last night for a mayoral forum hosted by 12 downtown Manhattan Democratic clubs.

These local activists do the frontline work of sustaining our democracy—knocking on doors, making calls, keeping hope alive.

LOST writer-producer Damon Lindelof says he won’t work with Disney unless Kimmel js reinstated. I’m hearing other talent weighing similar pledges.

I’m old enough to remember that slowing growth and rising prices is called “stagflation” and that it’s the worst of all worlds.

@ericswalwell.bsky.social on Kimmel: “That’s what it looks like in China, that’s what it looks like in Russia, that can’t be what it looks like in America”

I stand with PBS.

I stand with NPR.

I stand with Stephen Colbert.

I stand with Jimmy Kimmel.

I stand with the First Amendment.

PERIOD.*

You don't want to vaccinate your children, ask Repubs to build you schools for the unvaccinated. Mine will have their vaccines. They will be protected from any/all childhood diseases until science proves it otherwise. If you believe a man not a Dr or scientist, steer clear of mine.

“The MAGA gang [is] desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it”

~ Jimmy Kimmel whose show was pulled

"Just kill 'em."

~ Brian Kilmeade advocating death for the homeless

US officers tied us up and pointed guns at us, South Korean engineers tell BBC Korean workers who were detained in the US say they were treated like criminals and are still in shock.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

Ro Khanna: "They're making comedy illegal. Brendan Carr pressured ABC to cancel Jimmy Kimmel, and Disney cancels Jimmy Kimmel. This canceling from an administration that lectured us about cancel culture. That's why today I'm introducing a motion to subpoena Brendan Carr."

I admire Raphael Warnock.
