How could anyone craft a winning message running against this dawning golden age??

We're getting a snowstorm tomorrow. But New York City is prepared.

Snow is nature's urban planner: It can show us what parts of the roadway drivers don't use — and what can be reclaimed for pedestrians.

Post your photos and videos of all the #sneckdowns you see and tag us and @mayor.nyc.gov so today's winter wonderland can inspire better streets year-round!

look, anyone can sing kumbaya while looking out for their neighbors in an arctic freeze with armed and hostile agents of the state breathing down their neck. it's the anonymous posters advocating violence who do the real work.

“Everyone should be allowed to carry a gun for their safety but the government can murder you in the street if you have a gun” is an incredible endpoint for the conservative moment

You mean we get to have mass shootings AND secret police that shoot us in the face for no reason?

Now that’s freedom

I have had parking tickets
I have neighbors that I am concerned about
I have interest in my community being free from rampaging unaccountable gunmen

How about you?

This is a rep that is doing something. Encourage her to encourage others like her
On my way to Lewiston for the No ICE protest, but I’ve been watching the breaking news out of Minneapolis, where federal agents have shot and killed another person.

I’ve seen the video and it’s horrific.

This violent occupation has to end. ICE needs to GET OUT of MN and GET OUT of Maine.

If the Klan doesn’t even want to see your passport, what makes you think they care about your permit?

Democrat senators tell you they are doing everything they can to oppose Trump when in fact, they fast tracked almost all of his cabinet nominees and got his cabinet confirmed in record time.

FWIW:

Golden is retiring.

The filing deadline has passed in NC; Davis is the only Dem running.

The filing deadline has passed in TX; Gonzalez & Cuellar both have primary opponents.

Gillen has several Dem opponents as well, as does Perez.

If you want to primary Suozzi, you still have until 3/30.

I have been actively involved in protest movements for 24 years. I have never seen anything approaching this scale. Minneapolis is not accepting what's happening here. ICE fucking murdered a woman for participating in this, and all that did is bring out more people, from more walks of life.

Everybody's calling Assigned Media "the best little news site on the internet," but how will this scrappy team of journalists survive a new year of untold horrors?

With YOUR HELP, of course! That's right, get hype everyone for the 2026 start-of-year fundraising drive!

All Minnesota has to do is bribe Trump to stop shooting and beating its citizens. That’s how the US works right now.
