We can play the word game too. Repugnant : causing a strong feeling of disgust, often used to refer to behavior, beliefs, or things that go directly against morality and turn your stomach.

Look around at this ruined country. We're clearly not superior to anyone. And we have the ability to DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, but our elected representatives are a bunch of limp knobs.

A new @publiccitizen.bsky.social report shows corporations have already spent over $517 million to influence this year’s elections. That’s more than they spent in 2018, 2020, and 2022 COMBINED. We have to overturn Citizens United, ban super PACs, and get big money out of politics for good.

It’s about time the press started scrutinizing why Platner was embraced by the party with so many red flags. "This reckoning by the Democratic Party over how a man who has so much baggage …has been tolerated and embraced and permitted to stay in this critical race." - Nicolle Wallace

For the first time on record, the #ArcticCircle crossed a temperature that once felt almost impossible for such a frozen region: above 38°C. A place many imagine as endless ice, snow, and cold winds suddenly touched a number usually associated with scorching deserts #ClimateEmergency #oilandgas

Here’s a crazy idea: if a corporation wants to build a data center, they should also be required to construct renewable resource mechanisms to operate it—not funded by the public, but from the mountains of wealth they already possess.

The swastika carved into a car on the Upper East Side is a despicable act of antisemitism. It is a hateful attack of intimidation on our Jewish neighbors and on the values that make our city what it is.

I have full confidence the NYPD, which is investigating this as a hate crime, will do everything to ensure those responsible are held accountable. 

To every Jewish New Yorker: your city stands with you. We will confront acts of antisemitism wherever they appear with urgency and without exception.
