It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo.
It’s cowardice.

It was a fantastic evening of solidarity with organized labor, teachers, and public sector workers across our Commonwealth at Nova Labor's 2025 Tribute to Labor reception! Thank you to Northern Virginia AFL-CIO President, Virginia Diamond, for having me back again this year! ✊

Dropkick Murphys just had an epic moment at their show:
They made a friendly wager with a fan in a MAGA shirt—“Let’s see where it’s made.”
Then they checked his MAGA shirt tag…
Made in Nicaragua.
They swapped it with a Made in America Dropkick Murphys tee.
Legendary.

Trump and Musk want to shut down public media to silence criticism.
We joined @aclu.org and @freepress.bsky.social to defend freedom to dissent against the Trump regime and block the GOP's "Defund NPR Act."

Top-notch photography is often about choosing the right angle and perspective.
this choice of photos by the Carter Center is shadier than a Georgia peach tree in summer
