Republicans cut your healthcare to pay for a federal invasion of Minneapolis.

ICE isn’t making us safer — it’s terrorizing our communities.

losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people

really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?

"what are we going to do with 20,000 ICE agents if we abolish ice" well to start with I think we should all literally spit on them in public for the rest of their lives

In this in-depth interview Billie Jean Sweeney — a former editor at The New York Times — details how the paper shifted towards openly promoting anti-trans hatred, why this was directed from the very top, how some staff pushed back and the immense damage done by the NYT legitimizing bigotry.

If the internet still worked like it did in 2017 I’d post “cast Kelli O’Hara as Helen in Death Becomes Her it works if you really think about it you COWARDS”

I lost a job for calling Charlie Kirk a Nazi, but this is cool.

heads up to anyone who holds trans kids near: amy harmon from the nyt is searching for and having a hard time finding people to interview to find out exactly what trans kids are doing when their care is limited or cut off, and for purposes of community safety, please shut the fuck up around her.

if i had a time machine i would find whoever invented the staged reading and slip ‘em some arsenic

This is groundhogs day for autumnal playwrights

The only way forward is to inflict as much financial AND publicity damage on Disney as possible as swiftly as possible. Cancel streaming subscriptions, boycott products, picket, encourage politicians and entertainment figures to shout about this from the housetops. Demonstrate the cost of cowardice.

ICE agents in the Park Ave neighborhood spark large-scale protest The group shouted “shame” and "Gestapo,” and applauded as agents in the ICE-led action drove a Border Patrol SUV away on four flat tires, which had been slashed.

Federal immigration agents were seemingly forced to retreat from a roofing job site in Rochester, NY, after being confronted by more than 100 protesters

The workers stayed on the roof and agents drove away in a Border Patrol SUV on four flat tires, which had been slashed

"How Are the Very Rich Feeling About New York’s Next Mayor?"

A Dramatic Reading of The Recent New York Times Dispatch from the Hamptons.

Presented by The Gilded Age's Morgan Spector.

I need Democratic online types to understand that because of this, Newsom is dead to me. Dead. I'd sooner vote for an actual corpse. There is no hope, none, that he'll win me over, *because he has established he is a bad person*. There's no coming back from this. Take my advice and move the fuck on.

NYC opens first publicly funded homeless shelter for transgender people Ace’s Place will offer 150 beds and services, including counseling, financial literacy workshops and a work-study program in the culinary arts.

9 Aug 25 -- NYC opens the country’s first city-funded shelter for transgender and gender-nonconforming people experiencing homelessness. Ace’s Place, in Queens, offers 150 beds & is a collaboration btwn the city and an LGBTQ+ nonprofit. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

Wall Street Journal headline and deck: "New York Shooting Puts Mamdani on the Spot Over Policing Views: The killing of four people in a Midtown office building rattled a city where mass attacks are rare and violent crime has declined."

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes

A tactical retreat only works when you are building up strength to take a stronger stand later.

That's not at all what this, and there's nothing to suggest they actually have plans to stand on principle for something else. What line do they plan to hold, if they are willing to sacrifice children?

there's an actual genre of analysis that acknowledges that for generations people used to buy and sell other humans, aided by a comprehensive system of apartheid that continued for generations later, but nevertheless blames the resurgence of open bigotry on a decade or so of cringe Tumblr posts

Things I have to not think too hard about otherwise I just feel so much rage: such as how my naturalized citizen tax money is going towards ICE locking up immigrants and genocide in Gaza, instead of to Medicaid, NPR, PBS, or the NEA. Our money is going to destroy lives instead of enriching it

With the updated RCV totals just released by the Board of Elections, our campaign has officially earned the most total votes in a primary in New York City history.

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.

In a June Democratic mayoral primary, Zohran Mamdani received more votes than 22 sitting US Senators received in their most recent general elections.

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

it took me a solid five minutes to figure out that the feeling i had upon hearing the concession was Hope

I know the Democratic establishment is cooked and useless but how do you not look at those numbers and recognize you have a huge rising star on your hands

We have gone from the margin of error to the margin of effort.

On the day before the election, we stand on the verge of toppling a political dynasty and winning a city we can afford. But we can only do it with you.
