This has really cracked open something for me. I had been thinking about free speech discourse in terms of hypocrisy, but this illuminates a much more consistent throughline (derogatory).

@thebulwark.com did a supercut of all the prior times Trump said he was going to give Americans a $5000 check or whatever. It is glorious

Reminder: If voting requires you to spend $165 on a passport, that’s a poll tax. We made those unconstitutional in 1964. The SAVE Act is voter suppression.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani has balanced New York City's budget. Governor Gavin Newsom has balanced California's budget. Donald Trump has increased the national debt by over 40%. Republicans make vague promises about fiscal responsibility, but Democrats get shit done.

Today, I signed an Executive Order temporarily repealing bedtimes in the City of New York so that kids of all ages can watch our team in the NBA Finals. As Mayor, you’re forced to make many difficult decisions. This was not one of them. Go Knicks.

A YouGov poll has the percentage of US adults who identify as MAGA as just 18% of citizens. However they account for 57% of Republicans. Both percentages are much lower than you would expect from the noise they make.

RIP Sonny Rollins, a great jazz talent and the last surviving musician in one of the best photos of men in suits during the 20th century
The black-and-white photo A Great Day in Harlem shows 57 musicians gathered around the steps of a Harlem brownstone, while some kids sit on the curb. The photo was originally shot for an August 1958 issue of Esquire Magazine.

When Trump admin officials get asked why a certain sector of the economy is so bad, 90% of the time their answers begin with “we inherited.” Did everyone forget what Biden inherited in Jan 2021? Or what Obama inherited in Jan 2009? When are Republicans ever responsible?

Throw the book at whoever killed Charlie Kirk—no matter who it is. And throw the book at whoever helped enable what Jeffrey Epstein was doing or profited from it personally, professionally, or financially—no matter who it is. I’m a rule of law guy, like any responsible citizen.

The media is failing voters in Texas. They didn’t just make new maps that ‘favor Republicans’, they made new maps without the voice of the voters that further disenfranchise large communities of Black Texans. These are racist maps through and through.

Kristi Noem didn’t approve FEMA rescue teams for over 72 hours after the Texas floods, following a rule she imposed that required her personal sign-off on any operation over $100K. This is inexcusable. She should resign.

So the Iran Nuclear Deal, a sophisticated multilateral agreement reached by hundreds of adults over a two-year period—which kept us safe for years—has been replaced by a pathetic, obviously false bedtime story about a supposedly obliterated nuclear program being told to us by a known con man Got it

If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the GI Rights Hotline. There is support. You don’t have to go through with it. 877-447-4487

We’ve been in touch with local law enforcement in LA. They have the resources they need to meet the moment, and we stand ready to assist should the need arise.   There is no emergency and the President’s order calling in the National Guard is unnecessary and counterproductive.

Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies. In Denmark: - Health care and college are free.   - The starting wage is $22/hr. - Paid parental leave is 1 year. - Paid vacation is 6 weeks.   - All workers get pensions.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...
