That was my subway face when I lived in the Bronx in the early 80s (I went to Fordham)

Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.

Mamdani: When I ran for mayor, I said I was going to tax the rich

Well, today we're taxing the rich...

Hegseth Borrows Violent Prayer from ‘Pulp Fiction’ to Bless Iran War at April Pentagon Worship Service For the second month in a row, Pete Hegseth, who likes to call himself “secretary of war,” read a violent prayer — that echoes a scene in the Quentin Tarantino film Pulp Fiction — during a worship ser...

At Pentagon worship service today, Pete Hegseth again read a violent prayer to bless the Iran war. But this time his prayer was apparently borrowed from 'Pulp Fiction.' I promise I'm not writing for @theonion.com now:

France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces.

Equals 10 nuclear reactors
Reduces heat island, shades cars

The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight.

Why aren't we doing this?

NEWS: Huge first win for Mayor Mamdani’s tax-the-rich plans in NYC.

Mamdani just secured a deal with Gov. Hochul to create the state’s first-ever tax on $5 million+ second homes owned by ultrawealthy out-of-state residents.

Unbelievable stuff from the Washington Post on behalf of Jeff Bezos today.

Arsenal fans have reportedly sent a round ticket for JD Vance to come over and support Manchester City for the premiership....

Here a grandmother is forced to do a gig job with no job security because she can’t afford to retire? What are we celebrating here?

If you don’t think this post is batshit crazy see your doctor ASAP

Did Viktor Orban say thank you to Vance?

"Vance" is a useful new verb in the English language, and one consistent with our Latinate heritage.

Compare:

➡️ ADVANCE: To move something forward.
⬅️ VANCE: To cause a situation to decline or devolve.

In a sentence:

"Donald Trump's second term vanced the American economy."

No big deal just a solar eclipse as seen from the moon streamed to us here on Earth by astronauts who are farther away from their home planet than any human has ever been

Fox News was just talking about Soleimani’s niece and grand niece getting arrested by ICE: “Both were granted asylum in 2019 under the Biden administration.”

The question of who was actually president from Jan. 2017- Jan. 2021 continues to perplex Trump supporters.

Mayor Mamdani attended my Seder last night Speak your truth—but stay at the table!

This is nuts. The only reason to do this is the cruelty and the racism. It will actively harm the U.S. economy. We're not talking about undocumented migrant workers here. These are legal PERMANENT residents.

Anyone who believes this a fucking moron.

Bret Baier: The Mar-a-Lago flip. Democrats won Trump's Florida house district. Do you see a canary in the coal mine for the midterms?

Mike Johnson: These special elections are a one-off. They're anomalies. That's why we call them special.

@gruber.foo save for claim chowder…

We're forgetting the lessons of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire States have been gradually rolling back the protections that activists like Pauline Newman and Clara Lemlich bravely fought for

The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, 115 years ago tomorrow, galvanized a century's worth of workplace safety laws that are now getting shredded.

So because numbering in Florida changes, the national media may not comprehend this, but what is now HD-87 has been in GOP hands since the early 1980's when the Dems had a HUGE State House majority. So it's the sort of seat that should NEVER flip even in Dem wave years.

Oh dude - I literally lol’d at this but then became bummed at how stupid it is I know why that’s so funny. Oy.

Mueller failed in his mission because he believed that evidence still mattered and institutions would act on it. A lot of people still cling to these naive beliefs, but I think in their hearts they know they are not true. They are just very frightened of the implications of living in such a world.

I’m gonna risk it and put my shovels away…

Remember how people would bang on pots and pans every night at a certain time to thank health care workers at the beginning of the pandemic?

We should do that with fuck Trump. Everyone goes out on the porch and bellows “Fuck you Donald Trump “every night at 9. 🤣

Thank you for running and putting yourself out there!

The Strait of Hormuz is TOTALLY OPEN, everything’s FINE. Other than this ONE LITTLE DETAIL about missiles being fired at the boats.
