This afternoon, I sat with Palestinian New Yorkers in Astoria and listened to what they and their families have endured as the genocide in Gaza continues, funded by our government.

In the face of immeasurable grief, they have showed unbreakable resilience.

Before his second term began, President Trump was prosecuted repeatedly in state court, federal court and the Senate. After it ends, he could face trial in another venue, the International Criminal Court in The Hague.

Here’s How Trump Loses the Shutdown God help us but Gavin Newsom is the only Democrat who understands power.

"The authoritarian will hurt you if you do not cooperate with them. But a liberal regime will not punish you for having cooperated with authoritarians. So your incentives are clear." How do you fix this?

Republicans Are On The Run:
While House & Senate Democrats are in D.C. to work on behalf of the American people to find a bipartisan path forward, House Republicans are not in DC-they are on vacation and refusing to work.

Screenshot of an excerpt from a Max Tani article for Semafor dated 5 October 2025. TEXT:

A high-profile columnist who left The Washington Post amid the paper’s ongoing editorial upheaval is joining a growing anti-Trump digital news startup.

Former Washington Post opinion columnist Catherine Rampell is joining The Bulwark, where she will write a weekly economics and policy-focused newsletter while contributing to the company’s podcasts and YouTube channels. In a telephone interview on Friday, Rampell said that although she had spent her career at traditional media institutions like The New York Times and the Post, she was encouraged by The Bulwark’s growth and felt committed to its editorial mission, which emphasizes supporting America’s democratic principles and institutions.

“It’s very mission-oriented as an institution, and within that mission, there’s obviously room for a lot of other views,” Rampell said. “All of those things were appealing, and it’s a pretty kickass group of people.”

“The Bulwark is a written, video, and audio product. And as we grow, we are looking for people who can excel across all those mediums,” CEO Sarah Longwell said in a statement. “Catherine is not just one of those people — she’s one of the best of those people. She also brings a unique expertise in economics and a mission aligned worldview. We’re beyond thrilled she’s decided to join us.”

Seems like a lot of people have been guided to stare at the wrong part of the picture, like the spotlight got moved to the wrong 1%.

Trump is at war with the US Constitution.

ICE & federal law enforcement should be seen as enemy combatants. Because they are.
