I will fight with everything I have to bring justice for today's deadly Minneapolis shooting and ICE's horrific violence.

FULL SPEECH: Zohran Mamdani's victory speech following historic NYC mayoral win
YouTube video by ABC News FULL SPEECH: Zohran Mamdani's victory speech following historic NYC mayoral win

Just watched Zohran Mamdani's victory speech. One of the most remarkable speeches I've heard in a long time -- perhaps since Obama. It was moving, powerful, ambitious, and hopeful. Also glad that in later portion of speech he directly took on Trump.

Announcing the demolition of the East Wing of the White House:
BROUGHT TO YOU BY DONALD TRUMP

AMERICA’S VANDALS ARE NOT FOREIGN TERRORISTS, BUT A CORRUPT PRESIDENT, SUPPORTED BY MAGA REPUBLICANS & RADICAL SUPREME COURT, ABETTED BY (TILL NOW?) SPINELESS DEMOCRATS.

The Vandalization of The White House is symbolic of the Vandalization of America now underway.

Feel free to copy & share the attached graphic that I just prepared.

Why did the National Trust wait so long to make even this relatively modest statement requesting legally required review BEFORE any demolition work occurred?

Cleve Jones: "This Is Our Country" This is the first guest essay at Meditations in an Emergency. I'm proud to bring you yesterday's speech by the great Cleve Jones, who has for nearly half a century been a key organizer for the global ...

Ugh! Post should look like this, not that. But mostly: Cleve is a legend, my hero, a community organizer and LGBTQ leader since the 1970s, and a guy who can deliver a hell of a speech. Exactly what the moment needed and needs. Read it at the link.

The terrifying Nazi precedent for Jimmy Kimmel's suspension β€” and the reasons to stay hopeful Joseph Goebbels ended the careers of five actors in 1939 for making fun of Nazis, in an alarming foreshadowing of Jimmy Kimmel's suspension.

Why is this Nazi precedent for sacking Kimmel not totally surprising? forward.com/opinion/7707... @forward.com

Border Patrol agents assembled outside a Los Angeles museum where Gov. Gavin Newsom was holding a rally and news conference on congressional redistricting. Local elected officials expressed outrage that the agents decided to stand there in a brazen show of force. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/14/u...

Video: Apple C.E.O. Gifts Trump Gold Tim Cook presented a glass plaque on a gold base to President Trump and pledged an additional $100 billion investment in the U.S. as Trump threatened a 100 percent tariff on foreign semiconductors.

While it's great that Apple is planning for more jobs in the U.S., does this have to be accompanied by CEO Tim Cook kneeling before Donald Trump? I find this not just embarrassing, but scary; one more example of companies and institutions afraid of this bully.

Quite an interesting, but strange, choice. Brown's application letter, which The Bricklyn Eagle somehow got its hands on and published, is worth reading. Some pluses in Brown's background, but what's with his love of #Nandos peri-peri? Hope it works out for both #Bricklyn and the #UnitedKingdom

Post from Alt National Park Service saying " We're honored to announce a final count of 13.14 million in attendance across 2,300+ No Kings protests nationwide. It took a little longer to finalize due to the sheer scale, but the turnout was historic! So far, 71 MAGA agitators have been arrested, with 62 additional investigations still underway. We're actively reviewing online threats and working on escalating where needed. If you see something, say something.

Just a little perspective here...
The #NoKings protest brought out more people than the population of Pennsylvania, the 5th most populated state.
That's MORE than N. Dakota, S. Dakota, Delaware, Rhode Island, Montana, Maine, New Hampshire, Hawaii, W. Virginia, Alaska, Vermont, & Wyoming COMBINED!

As a Jewish-American I'm shocked (but not really surprised) by Project Esther. It's a devious effort to make use of claims of anti-semitism to target anyone holding progressive values, including Jewish Americans.
