Many unhoused Chicagoans uncounted among the disappeared - Chicago Reader The Latino Union of Chicago, via its Adopt a Corner initiative, organizes patrols to watch for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other federal agents at intersections and landmarks wh...

new: at least 26 unhoused chicagoans have been abducted since the start of "operation midway blitz."

the full scope of people disappeared is likely much larger but is obscured by heavy criminalization, social stigma, and fewer eyes and phones around to bear witness.

Jury acquits D.C. 'sandwich guy' charged with chucking a sub at a federal agent Sean Dunn faced single misdemeanor offense after federal grand jurors refused to indict him on the felony charge sought by prosecutors.

BREAKING: JUSTICE DEPARTMENT EATS A LOSS IN 'SANDWICH GUY' CASE AS JURORS FIND DEFENDANT NOT GUILTY www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

The media is rushing 300 “New York Jews worried about Mamdani antisemitism” fetch essays based on nothing but Mamdani being a Muslim meanwhile the Republican Party from top to toe has the confidence to wear nazi makeup every day knowing the press looks at it like the westworld bots seeing a polaroid

Just walked into a Wawa - there was a sign that “The Gobbler is Back!” and I felt personally attacked ngl

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

“This case, ladies and gentleman of the jury, is about a sandwich.”

Closing arguments from the defense in the DC sandwich guy case are now underway.

"Well guys, you're gonna have to learn his f*cking name now."

I went on a rant at the Zohran Mamdani event last night, against billionaires who spent millions to try and stop a guy whose name they refuse to correctly pronounce.

Curtis Sliwa is a crazy reactionary but at least he believes in multi-ethnic, multi-racial democracy, and I wouldn't want on my record that I didn't congratulate the first Muslim mayor of NYC but fucking Curtis Sliwa did

The argument makes no sense. Ross has been saying that Democrats will never win if they run on left policy. Then a Democrat wins by running on left policy and he says who cares, Mamdani isn't gonna go anywhere.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Suicidal for centrists to be begging for moderation when now would be a great time to pass some big, ambitious policies and remind people why Democrats are better than Republicans.

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."

let this be a lesson that sexual predators can eat shit. we do not forget.

Alt text: “New Jersey Governor General Election results with 18% reporting as of November 4, 2025, 8:17 PM. Mikie Sherrill (Democrat) leads with 387,573 votes, 63.6%. Jack Ciattarelli (Republican) has 218,438 votes, 35.9%. Vic Kaplan (Libertarian) has 1,689 votes, 0.3%, and Joanne Kuniansky (Other) has 1,341 votes, 0.2%. Total votes: 609,041.”

Decision Desk has called the New Jersey governors race for Mikie Sherill. Yet another state where millions of dollars in anti trans ads didn't work.

Elected Democrats spending more time today praising Dick Cheney than Zohran Mamdani is a great case study in abject fucking moral failure.

It’s amazing how everyone who has ever had an article written about them being a sexual predator is universally against a guy whose politics can be summed up as “everyone matters”

Your body is a wonderland 🎶

Zohran Mamdani on the bomb threats sent to polling stations: “These bomb threats are not isolated, they’re the logical outcome of Trump’s fear campaign.”

"I am openly defying a court order so I can starve children if Democrats don't let me take healthcare away from millions"

once again we are in 'too evil for a saturday morning cartoon' territory

this is such a great encapsulation of why this race feels existential even to people outside NYC. Cuomo as the final boss of everything wrong with the current Democratic Party, Mamdani happily grabbing the third rails everyone’s told are too dangerous to touch (trans people, Muslims, socialism)

It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

U.S. citizen shot from behind as he warned ICE agents about children gathering at bus stop, lawyers say Lawyers for Carlos Jimenez said he was in fear after an agent threatened him with chemical spray, then pointed a gun at him.

US citizen shot from behind as he warned ICE agents children would be coming to get bus, lawyers say

mamdani is the model for future dem candidates and it can work in all 50 states. not the boring milquetoast candidates who refuse to take a position on hot button issues. they inspire nobody but dnc ad makers.

Red Trump-style graphic with images of Donald Trump and Andrew Cuomo. At the top it says, "I'm going to pick [Cuomo]." - Donald Trump, 60 Minutes Interview, 11-2-25 Then beneath it TRUMP ENDORSES CUOMO

Congratulations, Andrew Cuomo!

I know how hard you worked for this.

I would like for national political reporters to place a moratorium on “But what will voters in the rest of America think about New York City’s socialist mayor?” We don’t care! Red states are notably full of psycho politicians yet rarely do you see pundits asking Brooklyn people about them.
