MAGA will giggle. (But, do NOT call them deplorable. They'll be big mad.). Yet the downstream effects of this war are making them big sad & these comments will help drive Dem voter turnout. Pray that the silver lining of this insane war is GOP's downfall. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/06/w...

In case you didn't watch my reel, here it is in a nutshell. New York won.
Two panels: The top panel is an anchor on the Daily Show saying, "The idea that 9/11 is about 'Muslims versus America' isn't just wrong, it's accepting Osama Bin Laden's vision of the world." This panel has a photo  of the NYC skyline with the 2 memorial laser beams on it. The bottom panel shows the same anchor but a picture with Mayor Zohran Mamdani. The words on this panel say: "And the fact that 25 years after 9/11, we have a New York-grown, Muslim mayor leading our remembrance, proves to the world that Al Qaeda didn't win, New York won."

From Gloria Steinem's 2015 memoir. Tears.
THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO: Dr. John Sharpe of London, who in 1957, a decade before physicians in England could legally perform an abortion for any reason other than the health of the woman, took the considerable risk of referring for an abortion a twenty-two-year-old American on her way to India. knowing only that she had broken an engagement at home to seek an unknown fate, he said, "You must promise me two things. First, you will not tell anyone my name. Second, you will do what you want to do with your life." Dear Dr. Sharpe, I believe you, who knew the law was unjust, would not mind if I say this so long after your death: I've done the best I could with my life. This book is for you.

Please don't overreact to Roberts Court decision on the contemplated USPS ballot moves They simply held that the injunction came too early in the process, before there was a final rule👇 Now we HAVE a final rule & we will litigate it. I'm as confident in our arguments here as in any of our cases!

Let’s talk about Medicare for All. What would it mean for the individual American? ⬇ The day you’re born you get a card that gives you health insurance with no premium, co-pay, or deductible. Doesn’t matter if you get a job, lose a job, turn 26 or 65, get married or divorced — it's there for you.

I cannot overstate how much I hate when people are dicks about babies crying in public (especially airplanes). Do you think the parent is having a good time right now?? Do you think they are not aware of the situation??? Are you going to negotiate with a literal infant????

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
