If you had been working for the current federal minimum wage since the day the dinosaurs went extinct, and never spent a single penny, you'd still be about two million years of labor shy of having earned a trillion dollars.

The solution is clear: tax the most wealthy corporations in the city. Alders just need to find the courage to stand up to the rich and their lobbyists.

Hey Johnboy, just curious, to which nation did you pledge devotion when you took your path of office?

Just saw a post where someone (not for nothing, Andrew Cuomo's digital director) called Greta Thunberg "the world's leading antisemite" and I really must ask: do these nudniks hear themselves?

No one will ever sum up Bari Weiss's career more succinctly than "what's the point of standards"
“Standards will be eliminated or severely cut back. Bari has told people that she wants to get rid of standards and is shocked that they have so much power. She asks ‘What’s the point of standards?’

the thing that upsets me about this the most is that Dems had all the momentum, republicans were reeling, and we were getting intra-GOP fighting over the filibuster, all while voters were blaming republicans for their incompetence

Only the Senate Dems could look at election results from around the country last week showing that principled, forceful rejection of Trump's fascist agenda is popular and politically powerful, and decide to capitulate to the GOP harder.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

Mamdani is going to implement Shakira law. Hips will no longer be able to lie.

I have been screaming this to the heavens for years and it’s lovely to see more people noticing: BEING safe is a right, FEELING safe is between you and your therapist. And the demand to FEEL safe is constantly weaponized to deprive other people of their real, actual safety.
One thing the NYC mayoral race underscored for me is how easily the phrase "I don't feel safe" can be weaponized. It's an argument I would hesitate ever to use again, even for a good cause. I hope we can all agree that we have the right to BE safe. Maybe we should leave it at that.

If there's one thing we know about Rahm Emanuel it's that he loves dead kids.
reminder David Axelrod and Rahm Emanuel both went on the record to Politico to say they were fine with this, either knowing the result would be mass death of children or being too dumb to know. Decide for yourself what’s worse!

I do not think all anti-Zionists are antisemitic, but anti-Zionists who label Zohran Mamdani a "Zionist" simply because he condemned swastikas drawn on a Jewish day school in Brooklyn are in fact antisemites.

This was horrific to watch. Agents entering a daycare, wrestling with and abducting a teacher in front of small screaming children. I just… what the fuck are we doing here.
this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

Unspeakably horrifying. A daycare teacher. A fucking daycare teacher. Just heartbroken for this teacher and the kids and the families. Terrified for my kid and her teachers and the families at our daycare.
