For years, New Yorkers have demanded access to City records about the lasting health impacts of the horrific September 11th attacks. For years, they have been denied and ignored. That ends today. nyc.gov/sept11docs

the more interesting thing about this article, which was written by a lobbyist for Google, Amazon, and Meta, among others, is that it was written by a lobbyist for Google, Amazon, and Meta, among others.

My WNBA controversy hot take is that it represents Fox News/ the Online Right searching for a post-Trump message. It’s certainly an effort to spur turnout in November, but it stems well beyond that.

Do not, under any circumstances, get the entire country to focus on the fact that the Republican president is a childish imbecile who can't function without 24/7 support from a dedicated full-time nanny, and that every Republican is slavishly devoted to him. It distracts from our message.

there's, like, zero messaging coordination going on with this white house now. we're three months out from a midterm that's looking increasingly bad, and everyone's just tap dancing their way through because president grandpa doesn't know what day it is and can't stay awake long enough to learn

This is why their obsession with demonizing Fauci doesn't have much purchase. Not because their base doesn't mostly share the opinion, but because people generally are still totally sick of arguing about the pandemic and don't want to keep rehashing it all ad nauseum.

Their plan is to say as little as possible and win by default, which in their mind is the safest path that doesn't alienate anyone. This misses the opportunity to galvanize the public around important issues, and then they throw up their hands about how the voters are ignorant and apathetic

Clade: captures contacts from Bluesky, Facebook, Google, and LinkedIn, then enriches them (useful token burn activity) and serves them to an MCP so you can ask mobile Claude things like e.g. “who do I know who might know something about DoorDash lobbying in DC”
