Dems and Dem media always so quick to capitulate to right wing framing and still end up here

Mamdani: "When I make criticisms of PM Netanyahu, they are criticisms of PM Netanyahu. And what I shared were not even frankly personal assessments, they were objective facts ... it's a city where everyone needs to know that their belonging to it is not conditional on how they feel about the mayor."

Social media is finally giving Sydney Taylor the love she deserves. She’s been HOOPING, and the whole league is starting to take notice. Love to see it! 🥹🔥 #ChicagoSky #WNBA

stuff like this is why one important avenue for court reform is just nixing the shadow docket altogether and forcing these people to explain themselves to the public when they issue orders. also, making their records property of the united states and subject to publication when they leave the bench.

YES

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

No words needed.

Credible allegations of sexual assault cannot be ignored. Voters in Maine deserve a choice for US Senate that doesn’t force them to make a moral compromise between sexual violence or corporate servitude.

1. Since December, CNN and CNBC have promoted Kalshi to viewers extensively, frequently vouching for its accuracy. The existence of a financial relationship between the networks and Kalshi, however, is disclosed to viewers inconsistently. w/@atrupar.com

Cabo Verde tied Spain and took Argentina to extra time. That entire team should hold their heads high.

I am at peace. Cabo Verde lifted the entire diaspora and made us proud.

It's like a window into the future of the USA.

Mamdani: "Those who led through exclusion & isolation have tried to win power & enrich themselves by turning us against one another ... today, too many of our leaders do not believe in a vision of this nation as an asylum for the persecuted, but rather as one that persecutes those seeking asylum"

This guy doesn’t miss.

and this isn't just some random evil racist congressman. he's the majority whip, the third most powerful member of the house! this *is* the party.

Just so transparently telling

this is honestly an excellent celebratory and motivational speech from Mamdani at the Knicks parade. i'm ready to run through a wall, and i'm not even a Knicks fan

In Atlanta during the FIFA World Cup match between Spain and Cape Verde, a heartwarming moment unfolded when a Spain fan noticed a Cape Verde supporter and gestured asking if he wanted to swap jerseys. The Cape Verde fan enthusiastically agreed, and the two exchanged shirts before sharing a long hug

If you can’t tax billionaires & trillionaire because “its unrealized gains until they cash out,” then stop letting them leverage that wealth for loans, as collateral, or as equity. If it’s not real enough to tax—it shouldn’t be real enough to leverage. Abolish billionaires—Protect working people.

Talarico: Here's what real men don't do. They don't lie and cheat their way through life. They don't sell their soul to the highest bidder. Real men serve others, weak men serve themselves. So I welcome this debate. I don't think Paxton or Cruz are in a position to tell anyone what a real man is.

I honestly don't give a shit about his sleeping habits, while his administration continues their illegal war on the American people and our immigrants. Tired of seeing more talk about how he's falling asleep, than literally any other heinous shit they are doing.

RIGGED ELECTIONS

This is the ideal male body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

Chase DeLauter just locked the fuck in on 4 straight balls right off the box for a close game bottom of the 9th, like it meant somethin. Win or lose that was as sick as his home runs.

The only leverage any nation has for true sovereignty, is nuclear power. We would not be in the mess we are in now if Iran had nuclear power. And that is why we push other nations to not have it. Not fear, our own self interest of control

Did you know the 1st time terrorists used planes to attack Americans wasn't 9/11 or Pearl Harbor? It was the Tulsa Race Massacre when white supremacists flew planes to drop bombs on Black Americans. This week marks 105 yrs since one of the most underrecognized acts of racial violence in US history.

exercising my god given right under the constitution to live mas and get baja blasted

There's a bunch of Republicans who hold office in San Diego County basically solely as a result of their offices being nominally non-partisan and unimportant enough it's not worth it to anyone to send out mail to 3.1 million residents that says "THIS GUY IS A REPUBLICAN"

Education is actually one of the largest exports the us has too. All this talk about too many imports and we wanna hit our best export

President Trump and Secretary of Education Linda McMahon are weakening students’ ability to challenge discrimination. Congress must intervene to demand that the Department of Education ensures equal educational opportunities for all students.

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

Mamdani has demonstrated something that Democrats have largely forgotten. You can't just do good things for voters and expect to be rewarded for it. You have to tell them about it, over and over again. You have to advertise your work in office just as much as you did on the campaign to win it.

"they're here to kill us all" - strong words from the country's most brain dead senator, a highly-coveted and hotly-contested title

This administration is obviously more aggressive then others, but generally, the government does not care about "drugs" per se, as much they care about having a rationale for going into latin american countries whenever they want to

Harris/Walz would’ve won if those fucking establishment consultant hacks had just gotten out of the way and let them say “These freaks are weird!” every day for three months and you’ll never convince me otherwise

Aye did we just discover chakra?

Black people are giving it these Confederates raw and uncut. This is how it’s gonna be now. You wonder what we’re thinking? It’s this. I believe this is activist Gary Chambers again in Louisiana.

Church of Scientology says the TikTok speedruns are 'hate crimes' Ex-Scientologist and niece of the church’s leader appreciates the trolling, calling it 'the only thing being done to make Scientology uncomfortable and to turn them into a joke so that [they don't trap] new people' (via LA Times)

Two nights ago, I said Trump had been using our troops as pirates in Iran and a Republican got mad. Well… the president just admitted it. He literally bragged about doing piracy.

what makes the SCOTUS Gang of Six acting as an unaccountable super-legislature especially intolerable is that they are not just setting up unfavorable rules, they are playing Calvinball where they selectively apply the rules case-by-case exclusively to help Republicans. A judicial dictatorship

Truth.
