Old. Retired. Liberal, centrist, progressive … depends. Political junkie. Sometimes wildlife photographer. I do hate a man who’s cruel just because.

I stand corrected. Thank you. At least Nesheiwat was pro-vaccine and pro-modern medicine. That would make her far more qualified than the current quack. But two times zero is still zero.

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Why won't any of the sports teams honoring Charlie Kirk play some clips of him? Please show us what you are celebrating. Don't be shy about it. Show us what made him so great. Play his greatest hits.

Wait, MAGA trash are refusing to go to NYC if Mamdani wins?

Is there a downside I'm missing?

Mamdani winning really flushed out every undercover bigot in the Republican Party. It’s like Raid for racists.

His "concept" of a Healthcare Plan is finally revealed. It involves eliminating the Insurance Industry & people purchasing their OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE. Unrelated, note his obsessive envy of Obama, historically rated 1 of our finest presidents, who he still believes was born in Kenya.

Don Moynihan on "Purge, Merge, and Surge" "Instead of surging in Iraq, it’s happening here in American cities."

“In ‘Purge, Merge, and Surge,’ Moynihan details how the administration is creating a federal ‘omniforce’ accountable to Trump that he can use to ‘impose control over Democratic cities, instigate enough unrest to justify escalation, and tamp down any dissent.’”

Crockett: When you go and you hit those booths come the midterms, think about which party decided that it was okay to literally be on vacation while people were going hungry in the streets of America.

Senate Democrats are fighting to make sure you can go to the doctor without breaking the bank.

Washington Republicans are fighting for a party of one: Donald Trump.

If I were to defy a court order, I'd be in jail, not building a ballroom.

Reopen government, swear in Adelita Grivala, release the Epstein Files, restore healthcare subsidies, and fund SNAP.

There is zero excuse for police, in a free society, to wear a mask.

Restrictions on fetal tissue research would threaten progress on breakthrough treatments for devastating diseases — and yet not prevent a single abortion The U.S. government may restrict funding for research that uses human fetal tissue. The move would undermine medical science and prolong patients' suffering from devastating diseases.

Human fetal tissue research has saved millions of lives and continues to drive biomedical innovation. Restricting it would not alter abortion rates, it would force scientists to discard an irreplaceable research resource for treating devastating diseases.

This morning, I spoke at the SOMOS Labor Breakfast.

"We are not looking to remake New York City in my image. We are looking to remake it in the image of struggling workers across the five boroughs."

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.
