Ossoff: "What did they spend the most political capital trying to do over the last 18 months? Cover up the Epstein files. They worked harder to cover up the Epstein files than they ever did to lower grocery prices."

In an Uber. Driver having loud phone conversation with someone in Spanish. A little annoying, but it happens. He hangs up. Says, “Mi hermano. La Migra.” And starts weeping.

A med student asked me today: "Why does cold mucus turn yellow or green? Does that mean I need antibiotics?" Millions of people panic when they see green. They think it’s a bacterial takeover. But the biology is actually fascinating and way less scary. Let me explain.🧵

Oh, thank God! I think it's SO CRITICAL that the Trump administration be allowed to violate court orders WITHOUT punishment—even as the average poor person doing so would be imprisoned or fined an amount greater than their annual salary. It's how we MAKE SURE Trump NEVER learns.

On Sunday, parents across the five boroughs got a night to themselves while NY's Cutest enjoyed free activities with NYC Parks staff at select recreation centers. Free & accessible child care doesn’t just make our city more affordable — it gives parents time to rest, recharge, or enjoy a night out.

The ICE raids and cruelty we are seeing inflicted on children are unacceptable.

The federal government has stripped legal representation from hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied children. Many will soon face an impossible choice: navigate our immigration system alone or risk detention and deportation.

Our city is stepping up. We've invested $16.9 million in immigration legal services for unaccompanied children, with another $32 million in this year's immigration legal services budget, including rapid-response legal advice and representation for people in detention.

If you need immigration legal support, we're here to help. Our free, confidential Immigration Legal Support Hotline is available in your preferred language, regardless of immigration status.

Capitalism punishes frailty instead of protecting it. The moment you become disabled, chronically ill, elderly, poor, or otherwise unable to keep producing at full capacity, you lose income, healthcare, housing, credibility, and empathy. Not only are you considered less deserving of basic needs, you are charged extra for not dying.

It’s not your fault you’re disabled. It’s not your fault you’re chronically ill. It’s not your fault you’re living in poverty, lacking health insurance, homeless or unemployed. The billionaire class wants us to believe these are moral failings so they don’t have to help people. We should help.

We have never had "runaway DEI" or "open borders" and no national office Democrat has ever run on those things. So the fact that people were voting on them tells you something you could learn: that they're not voting for you, so you might as well fucking energize your base.
