If That's What Mayor Mamdani Has Been Doing For NYC,Count Me In...

Why didn’t the mentalist predict this?

You know what’s shitty? To completely abandon journalistic ethics just so you can attend a tacky dinner with a bunch of kleptocrats who would just as soon seen you locked up.

I didn’t realize that Melania doesn’t actually speak English

How a Family of 3 Lives on $500,000 on the Upper West Side www.nytimes.com/interactive/... This is a parody, right? @nytpitchbot.bsky.social I dare you to top it.

This Republican Congress had its chance to limit Trump’s reckless war. Instead, they chose to let him continue his bellicose and deranged assault that increasingly endangers the whole world. History will show their sycophantic failures are central to this broken era.

The Trump admin very well prepared for this moment as always.

Anne Frank died from a typhus epidemic that spread through the concentration camp where she was imprisoned.

It’s strange how those cameras are mysteriously not turned on when cops are doing something terrible.

A message to the Republican enablers in Congress. You lost the Wall Street Journal. You have blood on your hands. By enabling this, you participated in the murder of American citizens. Today would be a great day to show up and put an end to this. America needs you now.

It’s amazing how Team NRA changes its tune when the Second Amendment suddenly becomes a problematic argument.

If Chuck Schumer can’t hold his caucus together on the budget vote this week, he should be forced to resign as leader. This isn’t a yes or no vote on spending. It’s yes or no on fascism. Contact him today!

It’s so embarrassing. Every day

@schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social How about it?

Omg. I literally can’t take it anymore

Gawdalmighty, look at the wording. They broke the fucking law.

This might be the most egregious case of normalization I’ve ever seen from the Times. And that’s saying a lot.

Wine moms haven’t been this proud since Taylor referenced us in The Tortured Poets Department.

It’s outrageous that CNN continues to put him on air as a “conservative voice.” He’s a despicable fawning toad and the network sullies itself by association. FFS, get someone credible. And smart would be good, too.

I invite all Americans to join Minnesota in a day of unity tomorrow.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

I guess we're just going to wait for the election and expect the murderous pedophile to quietly acquiesce to the law. When he never has before, even once.

And Grand Rapids has a Democratic governor, Gretchen Whitmer; AG @dananessel.bsky.social; two Dem Senators, @slotkin.senate.gov and Gary Peters; Congressional Rep @scholten.house.gov and new Democratic Mayor David LaGrand. @michigandems.bsky.social

This is how you do it. No preamble to swear to God you don't like Maduro.

Exactly

Rick Steves, you are a hero

If you’re a Republic member of congress on the fence about whether to run again, you got your answer tonight. Run for the hills

That was some weird shit.

A Christmas message with all the manic energy of one of Hitler’s Nuremberg rallies but none of the nuance or humanity.

Trump was clearly on his meds tonight

Russia destroyed 100% of Odesa’s energy infrastructure. All substations were destroyed by missiles and drones. The city has been completely left without electricity, hot water, and heating for over one million people, including all critical infrastructure.

Disgusting. Congressional Democrats must find the will and the way to fight back against the corrupt and blatantly political justices who have seized control of this court.

WTAF?

This kind of performative nonsense will not last one day in lady prison.

Are you a business that's colluding with ICE? Caving to the biased attacks on DEI? Funding this administration for tax cuts? Guess what? #WeAintBuyingIt Nov 27–Dec 1, instead we are putting our money where are values are.

I’m done funding cruelty. Target cuts DEI, Amazon bankrolls this administration, and Home Depot lets ICE terrorize workers on their lots. My money stays with small shops and people-first businesses. How about you? #WeAintBuyingIt

Finally!!!

"Things happen" sometimes, like when you walk into an embassy to apply for your marriage license while your bride-to-be waits outside, but then you get bonesawed to pieces for having exercised freedom of speech as an US-based journalist and have to be carried out in a series of suitcases.

Today’s badass award goes to Mary Bruce 🏆 THIS is how journalism is done right!! ✊🏻✊🏿✊✊🏾✊🏼

The fact that no one in the room stood up for her says a lot about how we got here bsky.app/profile/pale...

$1.200 to $2,060

Lost.

Counterpoint: It's the only thing that HAS worked.

I have an idea! Sen. Schumer, why don’t you send a “very strong letter” to the eight members of your caucus who have capitulated to Trump? Wow. Your leadership skills are amazing!

Unfortunately still true bsky.app/profile/adam...

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.
