For a healthy democracy, we need more political diversity. No two-party monopolies. I truly believe Dems need to step aside and let independents like Bernie or Green Party candidates share the spotlight to unify the left against the fascist MAGA cult. ☮️🤙🇵🇸
Hey #MAGA, I get it. I was once a die-hard Lance Armstrong fan. I understand how hard it is to think of your idol as a liar and a cheater. But as soon as you face reality and stop protecting him, the better off YOU will be. It will hurt, but you are tough. I believe in you. #trump #djt #epstein

I have low expectations for @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social, and even I was shocked by the naked Islamophobia that she was engaging in, including falsely accusing him of "global jihad".

I called her office and told them that this behavior is unacceptable from a sitting senator

Senator Gillibrand called on Al Franken to resign.
I think she should resign for falsely smearing Zohran Mamdani as a terrorist.

He has never invoked a ‘global jihad’. This is a nasty, Islamophobic racist smear from a sitting Dem senator.

“Is there any sign of life?”
“Have we heard a heartbeat?”
“Does she feel any kicking?”
“We don’t have the equipment to do that.”

That’s the full 911 audio from a nurse inside an ICE detention center near Denver, calling for help as a four-months-pregnant woman bled and cried out in pain.

Am I mad or is US media coverage of Mamdani like 10 times worse than British tabloid coverage of Sadiq Khan?

Some of the mainstream headlines I see make “stop the boats” Britain look like a progressive utopia.

just absolute fucking human garbage. humiliating to ever have thought she had a single redeeming quality.
Kirsten Gillibrand on WNYC won’t endorse Mamdani. Said she doesn’t endorse NYC mayoral races (she endorsed Adams in 2021), and is waiting to see who runs on what line. What a fucking disgrace.

“ICE” bounty hunters made this possible. By making it easy to cosplay as federal agents: masked faces, no visible ID, no official vehicles, and gear that any yahoo can buy on Amazon. They look like criminals!

Yet another video that shows that these masked thugs aren't after criminals.

The man in the truck refused to get out. When the public swarmed in, the masked thugs left.

Border Patrol or not, if they were after legitimate criminals they wouldn't just leave.

Quotas. That's what they're after.

Boyle: For every American household that makes under $55,000 a year, they will be poorer as a result of this bill. So it's quite clear under this Republican betrayal— the poor get poorer, the rich get richer, and the middle class falling further behind. This is wrong.

And then this shit just came out.

When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car.

When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.
Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance
