I will no doubt read and enjoy all your very good Nuzzi jokes, but I also want to say earnestly, so many of us (myself included) are on the verge of being pushed out of this industry and it's genuinely so dispiriting to see the worst among us, ethics-wise, get such preferential treatment.

I know we're going to beat them and going to beat them so bad there'll never be a them like them ever again; however, today I am just absolutely agog at the ocean of banal cruelty.
I guess I'm lucky I still have a conscience that can be horrified by the confirmation of its cynicism, but Jesus.

CHARLIE BROWN: The deal agreed upon today contains major concessions. Lucy, for example, has agreed to give me two attempts at kicking the football tomorrow. But to me? What matters most is that I can at last continue with my important work on the pitcher's mound

Whenever some sanctimonious Dem announces that America needs a functioning Republican Party, I always think “I’d settle for a functioning Democratic Party.”

Zohran's success will hinge equally on what he is ABLE to do and how effectively he messages to voters when the federal govt of wealthy interests / police, etc in NYC deliberately sabotage things.

The full weight of western capitalism is about to laser focus on NYC. The robber barons failed to win and will panic. They will sabotage NYC because the system cannot allow Mamdani's term to be successful. They cannot allow people to believe things can be better. Your job now is to hold the line.

We live in the most evil country in the world.
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

ICE shot an American citizen and food bank worker who tried to block them arresting an immigrant by pulling his car in front of them.

It is painfully clear Republicans are not listening to folks back home.
What families nationwide are saying is: "Please stop my premiums from doubling."
And what are Republican leaders saying? "Not our problem, we never wanted to lower health care costs in the first place."

A year ago today, a racist tried to make a 'joke' about me being killed by Israel. It was the 1st time I've ever walked off of live TV. That night CNN said they'd ban the racist from their air. But in the year since, I myself haven't been invited back on CNN.
