Having seen several abductions up close, it is really hard to convey how much the thing theyβre doing is roaming in military convoys until they see someone who is alone and isnβt white, and then jumping out in large numbers, pulling them into a van, and screeching off, all in 90 seconds or so.
you want to throw the billionaire boys club out of power? Aftyn's gonna do that
you want to fight the GOP and their bullshit? Aftyn's gonna do that too
you want to kick Democratic leadership in the ass to get them to actually fight for working people? You guessed it, Aftyn's got you covered
New pope hates JD Vance confirmed
Was it Zoomers or some editor posting click bait?
The Supreme Court: we are moving the country closer and closer to white supremacist minority rule by instituting a modern day Dred Scott regime
White guy legal analyst: Here's my 3 reasons the birthright citizenship decision isn't so bad
If Roberts has Louisiana v. Callais, Section 2 of the VRA might actually be toast
as for the upshot of the decision, the republican court has put the citizen children of non-citizens in a position similar to that of free blacks during the antebellum period. their right to enjoy the privileges and immunities of american citizenship will vary according to state borders
No one to blame except the cowardly, sclerotic Democratic party. They knew the horrors of the Roberts Court and refused to act, depending instead on deteriorating institutions and disappearing norms. Pray we have one more shot at this.
Some legal analysts thought the Court would not be sympathetic to the Trump administration's arguments as it would reduce the power of the judiciary. They failed to understand that the Roberts Court's pattern of behavior is not seizing power for the judiciary, it's seizing power for itself.
This is going to reshape decades of civil rights litigation.
The Supreme Court does not have any "moderate" justices. The Supreme Court is not your friend.
The Supreme Court's conservative supermajority just took away lower courts' single most powerful tool for reining in the Trump administration's lawless excesses, stripping them of authority to issue universal injunctions that block illegal policies nationwide. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...
Zohran is clearly a generational candidate but major props to his team who ran a nearly flawless campaign. Thinking a lot about the video he put out after the Nov 2024 election where he talked to Trump voters in NYC. It put him on the map when so many Dems were looking for voters to blame.
this and PLEASE DO NOT BELIEVE EXIT POLLLSSSSSSS!!!! if anything turnout numbers are a better indicator if the electorate is favorable for a certain candidate but exit polls are notoriously inaccurate!!!!!!!!
New York City cannersβmany of them immigrants and people of colorβhelp keep millions of containers out of landfills. Their work keeps the countryβs largest city cleaner, yet their contributions remain largely unrecognized. My latest for @prismreports.org
Lander says he's fine, lost a button in the scuffle earlier. "I will be fine but Edgardo will not be fine," he says of man taken by ICE when he was detained. Lander says he has not been charged at this point.
"A reporter from @thecity.nyc had overheard one agent say to another minutes before Landerβs arrest, 'Do you want to arrest the Comptroller?'"
NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trumpβs ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant.
This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.
In the NYC mayorβs race, the NY Times stuck to its new no endorsement policy but selected an βopinion panelβ which last week recommended Brad Lander and today published a long, discursive βadviceβ essay that undermines Lander, dismisses Mamdani completely and grudgingly boosts Cuomo.
weβve gotten this kind of Q a lot and hereβs what I can say [mini π§΅ incoming]
ideally, it is always best to fill all five ballot slots with candidates because that will ensure you have a voice β and your ballot is not βexhaustedβ β if there are many rounds of tallying
however!!! β¦
βWe can watch as our neighbors disappear or we can build on these proven strategies to protect the diverse communities we've built together.β

Has to be a staffer. Doesnβt have the juice!
Screenshot of the "My Reach" page of the Zohran for NYC campaign's Reach account when I log in. The screen shows 1,051 people uploaded into my network.
Are you a supporter of Zohran who's unable to canvass? I understand, and no worries.
There are other ways to do field; the most effective is doing relational outreach with Reach.vote.
(To the 1K friends, allies, and acquaintances I've uploaded into my Reach acct: please reply to my text by Jun 24)
If this stands, what is FIFA going to do? Put all Iranβs group stage games in Canada and hope they donβt make it out?
I watched large portions of this segment and at one point @mattyglesias.bsky.social threw up this slide, said Dems are "making bad press on this issue" and moved on.
But the polling is wildly on Dem's side on this one! Opponents of what the Trump admin is doing with him outnumber supporters 2-1!
