This is the quote the @nytimes.com chose for its morning newsletter to explain @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's appeal to "young people". Imagine if we talked about "old people" like this...

Make Argentina Great Again!
WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.”

Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

Can always count on the @nytimes.com to lead the charge in boogeymaning politicians of principle like @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

We’ve received a lot of questions about Trump’s demolition of the White House East Wing.

Here’s how the process is supposed to work:

ICYMI: Trump is shutting down IRS Direct File, a popular program that allowed Americans to do their taxes for free.

Yet another example of Trump screwing over working people.

Ludicrous though it is, we need to tell the EPA that carbon dioxide is in fact dangerous. Please join @thirdactorg.bsky.social in filing public comments--for the historic record if nothing else

My oldest turned 10 yesterday, and we've been fighting to stop this gas station being built across from our library and near a preK-8th school his whole damn life. Please share to help us end this idiocy.

Not going to lie, I cried a bit when I got the email that SSMIS was being discontinued. I developed D-MINT with a toddler in tow, showing her pretty pictures of hurricanes so she knew what Mommy did while she's playing with friends at school. This one hurts.
A huge blow was dealt to hurricane forecasters this week as a critical tool was abruptly terminated by the Department of Defense and NOAA. The immediate discontinuation of data from three weather satellites will severely impact hurricane forecasts this season and beyond. More ⬇️

U.S. Department of Defense announced Tuesday it would no longer process and deliver data essential to most hurricane forecasts

On June 14th, cooperative worker-owner José Ignacio “Nacho” De La Cruz and his stepdaughter Heidi Perez were violently detained by ICE and are now at risk of imminent deportation. Sign on to the letter demanding their immediate release from detention. actionnetwork.org/letters/free...

White Afrikaners say the tombstones they erected were protest symbols. Tucker Carlson says they were headstones on mass graves. For busy United States presidents, it can be hard to know who to believe.

It's still peak migration (birdcast.info), so keep those outdoor lights off, keep #catsindoors (really always), explore #birdsafeglass treatments, and find your local #LightsOut program. #LightsOutBaltimore
Birds and bats and our ecosystem as a whole which relies on them will thank you!

My 4yo pausing at the park trash can today: "look, somebody got Donald Trump food!"

Not just tax money, but--perhaps more importantly--humane wages and benefits
Space adventure and exploration should be for the benefit of all humankind, not the whimsy of a few.

All out for May Day!

On May 1st—the international holiday for working people—feeder marches from all over the city will be converging on McKeldin Square downtown for a huge protest against the Trump regime and its billionaire backers.

This is the important evening news article @nytimes.com is emailing about as Trump plays king and defies democracy. What a rag.

And how will they pay for it this time around? Not by adding to the nat'l debt like last time, but by cutting social programs that vulnerable groups rely on to survive. Reverse Robin Hood.
Not surprisingly, Trump’s overall tax and tariff proposals would make the very rich much richer and working families poorer.

If you earn less than $360,000 a year, your taxes are going to go way up.

If you’re in the top 1%? Don’t worry. You’ll save big.
