Elizabeth Warren on Why Billionaires Are Doing All They Can to Stop Zohran Mamdani Elizabeth Warren explains why billionaires are boosting Eric Adams and Andrew Cuomo to keep Zohran Mamdani from becoming New York City's mayor.

Some billionaires & Wall Street CEOs canโ€™t stand the idea of a mayor who wants them to pay their fair share to create a city that everyone can afford.

In Rolling Stone, I discuss how @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social will stand up to special interests & make New York work for working people.

I apologize for swearing but--are you fucking kidding me???

The NYT thinks that judges refusing to give Trump's DOJ the benefit of the doubt is "eroding the healthy functioning of the courts."

For democracy to survive, judges need to be more skeptical and impose greater sanctions for DOJ's lies.

Exactly. I see what's happened in the UK and that's why I'm sure as shit not going to sit silently while the "center-left" party here does the same thing they did over there.

Trump Went to War With the Ivies. Community Colleges Are Being Hit.

the trump administration is selling its war on higher education as a strike against the elites who have disadvantaged ordinary americans. in actuality, the administration is destroying advanced education for *everyone* in pursuit of its effort to deskill the american public

You ever just think about how much it sucks that Musk bought Twitter and absolutely destroyed it? Like man, that used to be where I'd meet new people, make real life friends, etc. Now, whenever I glance over there to check something, it's just unrecognizable.

if you want to have a nice and relaxing sunday, do not watch the new Hulu documentary on Hurricane Katrina. if you want to shake with rage and anger over the total failure of this nation's government and media establishment, watch the Hulu documentary on Katrina (this is a recommendation)

A long time ago I spoke an attorney in the Dakota Access Pipeline case, and the GOP has been trying since at least then to implicate EVERYONE in a protest based on the behavior of one person under RICO. It's how they intend to jail dissidents. Keep an eye on this shit.

I donโ€™t know who Sidney Sweeney is, but Iโ€™m an actual democrat and no one is talking about this in any of the 298348 dem chats and groups Iโ€™m in. So youโ€™re creating something to be mad about. Thatโ€™s sad.

Tinto de Verano? I dunno if that really counts as a cocktail. ๐Ÿ˜† Same with Kalimotxo (red wine plus cola). Agua de Valencia is tasty. Mmm now I would like a refreshing beverage!

I've lived in D.C. for the better part of two decades. Nearly my whole adult life. Something folks aren't talking about--a giant elephant in the room--is the amount of "brand protection" going on right now.

I don't mean fear of Trump or political persecution, although those can overlap.

There was no "missing minute" in the original Epstein jail video, government source says FBI officials promised raw, unaltered video to quell speculation about Epstein's suicide.

I think people are misinterpreting this wonky headline. The bombshell story CBS is reporting is that the Epstein jail tape the public got IS missing time and the FULL video exists. The FBI and DOJ have it. So when Bondi said the missing minute is normal, she lied. www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey...

I've long said: elect imperfect democrats and get a seat at the table to push them toward your preferred policy. Otherwise you get republicans, and not only will you lose your seat at the table - you'll lose the whole damn table.

With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

Was just the other day marveling that Tom Lehrer was still with us. I marveled too soon, dammit. Excuse me while I perform โ€œOedipus Rexโ€ from memory in remembrance (and try to forget โ€œIn Old Mexico,โ€ which โ€ฆ has not aged well).
