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

Gratitude to the @psjeditor.bsky.social team for featuring my article "Agendas and Instability in American Local Politics" with Peter Mortensen in their blog! psjblog.net/2026/04/15/a...
This reminds me my grandpa getting frustrated explaining the plot of a Jag episode when I was like 7
All right, live whatevering of Trump v. Barbara, the birthright citizenship case. Arguing for the bad guys is US Solitictor General John (voice is an immutable characteristic so let's show some respect) Sauer. For the plaintiffs it's ACLU legal director Cecillia Wang.
Intimidation like the mob boss he is
It does not matter if a Constitutionally protected right is popular. The whole point of rights is they always apply to people, including when—especially when—an individual example is unpopular. And the point of a Constitution is to have base laws that don't swing with a simple majority.
Shocked, I tell you
Sickening racism from a sitting senator. The Ogles hate is contagious.
You’re either calling this out or normalizing it. There’s no third option.
And the new oligarchs are taking the ball and running with it! Everybody who takes the bus or rides the Amtrak ought to call every rep possible, all the time, to demand better transit 😫
We just want reliable buses and train systems ffs
In less than 1 week, Trump wasted $11.3 BILLION of your taxpayer dollars on the Iran war.
Instead that money could have:
- Restored SNAP to 4 million Americans
- Established universal pre-K education
- Built 100,000 units of housing
Our priorities are warped.
Ok that rules! I want a wide awake baseball tee 😂

Texas isn't a conservative state, it's a suppressed state! That's why they make it so hard for poor people and minorities to vote, they know we'd evict them with a quickness lol
Bad news for Republicans: I saw a billboard that said, “Executing citizens is not protecting the border” on the highway outside of Temple, Texas. Oh, y’all are cooked cooked!
Community meme: I CAN EXCUSE FASCISM. BUTI DRAW THE LINE AT MERCANTILISM.
The Supreme Court:
Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.
Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.
He can say whatever he wants and issue whatever executive order he wants, but he has no legitimate power to actually do anything like this.
Panicked posts like this one give the impression that he can make good on his threats. He can't.
