NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant.

This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.
Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

Joni Ernst, at her town hall last night.

When the crowd said people will die due to Medicaid and SNAP cuts, she said: "well we all are going to die." 🫠🫠🫠🫠

Nothing makes sense with these two teams. Not the Pacers taking the first two games inside rowdy Madison Square Garden, and not New York then spoiling Indy’s advantage by winning Game 3.

Column | Knicks-Pacers series stays weird with another confounding result
In a disorienting Eastern Conference finals in which nothing has made sense, the home team still hasn’t won a single game.

Public opinion on immigration is 1) malleable, and 2) easily sours on visible cruelty, and if anyone told you otherwise over the last 5 years, they're offering you cursed ideology masked as wise pragmatism
Remarkable from WaPo poll: Trump sinking fast on immigration among independents.

56% disapprove of handling of issue
62% oppose removing foreign students
52% oppose renditions to El Salvador
Only 21% want Abrego Garcia left there

Engage, Dems.

New piece from me:

Trump Is Suddenly Bleeding Independents. A Brutal New Poll Shows Why.
Immigration was his best issue in the polls. But now he's sinking on it. Maybe Americans care about the rule of law after all.

A mob of Hasidic men in Brooklyn chase down a woman who came to protest Ben-Gvir.

This sort of reaction has become normalized in NYC and LA, where violence against protestors has spiked enormously since October 7th.

This largely isn't covered or addressed by media, despite how widespread it is.

"Obvious natural mayor-in-waiting Andrew Cuomo" brought to you by the same people who brought you "normal uninteresting congressional nominee George Santos"
One of the weirdest things about living in New York City is how aggressively complacent, lazy, and low-info the major NYC-based media are about local politics, at least half the reason they're so busily trying to put Cuomo over as inevitable is so they don't have to learn anybody else's name

I’ve been keeping up with authoritarian countries for years and I swear I have never heard an Attorney General say something like this. The AGs role is to provide a veneer of legitimacy to what the autocrat is doing by couching it in the language of law. This is wild.
Bondi declares war on the courts: "What has happened to our judiciary is beyond me ... they are deranged ... we are sending a very strong message today ... we will come after you and we will prosecute you. We will find you."

Politics is more clear when you remember that the "waste" in "government waste" is the profit that some rich asshole isn't making off labor in the public sector whose only purpose is the common good.

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

🚮
My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.

My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.

I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
 
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

Thinking about how despite the trope of the "clumsy" Disney channel protagonist to convey the character was a relatability was legit for me because I am an actual disaster. I will bump into any and every object, keep open containers and open flames away.
