My mayor gets the seal of approval!

Mayor Mamdani and Councilmember Kayla Santosuosso visited the New York Aquarium to meet some seals and celebrate the impact of the administration’s $2 million investment in the aquarium.

How can you not love this guy?

Shanah Tovah, New York! Wishing all Jewish New Yorkers celebrating a sweet, joyful and meaningful Rosh Hashanah. Here’s to a new year filled with health, happiness and blessings (and yes, even another Knicks championship).

The repugs are obviously terrified to give Talarico any visibility on the network airways. Irony is he’ll likely reach more of the audience he needs to reach (younger lower propensity voters who don’t watch much network TV) on You Tube. Well done, idiots.

I'm sorry, if you're going to make a big show about how you've got a Department of WAR helmed by a Secretary of WAR and staffed by WARfighters, it's totally inane to then claim that your massive bombing of a foreign country constitutes something other than a war.

The president, who drones on about protecting women’s sports, publicly mocked the women’s gold-medal hockey team. A reminder this was never about protecting women’s sports and it was always about transphobia and misogyny.

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

Thousands of brave patriots in Iran take to the streets to protest the lawless, authoritarian regime riding roughshod over their rights. No, wait. This is thousands of brave patriots in Minnesota taking to the streets to protest the lawless, authoritarian regime riding roughshod over their rights.

When Renee Good said "I'm not mad at you" what the ICE goon heard was "I'm not scared of you." That's what enraged him. The populace wasn't fully terrorized and cowed into submission yet, so he acted to make that happen.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

So, we're pirates now? Cool, cool ...

Trump: "It's been an interesting day from the standpoint of news. As you probably know, we've just seized a tanker on the coast of Venezuela. Largest one ever seized actually. And other things are happening."

There are violent extremists on the left but they are not in charge of the party. You can find them on social media, not in the halls of power. The violent extremists on the right are in congress, on courts, and sitting in the Oval Office.

Someone called this mass exodus from Twitter ‘the fall of the Broman Empire’ and I died laughing. 💀

It was a 49% to 48% election. Fascism won by a hair. And it took Russian and MAGA bomb threats, a hoax regarding battleground-state police raids, an illegal Musk-funded lottery, $600M given to Trump by just 15 people, Netanyahu meddling in our politics, and Democrats staying home for it to happen.

Like most of us, I have been in a depressed funk since the morning after the election. I haven’t been able to stomach the news, even Maddow, Wallace or O’Donnell. And X has been unbearable, for the last year and even worse since the election. 1/3

All the best features of Twitter are gone or corrupted, and it has been a pit of awfulness, with all the voices I trust strangled by Elon’s evil algorithms in favor of bots and trolls. 2/3

Just got here yesterday and I’m already breathing easier. I’m finding many of the people I trust will help us figure out how to cope and regroup. Thank you all. I appreciate you. 3/3

You are up to date.
