Threatening to vote third party again, in the Year of Our Lord 2025, is a signal that you've already given up.

You're basically stating that you looked into Nietzsche's abyss and blinked.

Miss me with that bullshit.

The latest U.S. strike on a suspected drug smuggling boat has killed two people in the Pacific, this one authorized by the Marine general who took command of military operations in Latin America and the Caribbean earlier in the day.

yeah, this explicitly does not happen in Trump admins. They view anything like this as weakness, if they actually got forced to take it down, the background noise was intense.

Yes, Reagan is totally in line with the modern Democratic party, what with his hatred of gay people, his desire to destroy Social Security and Medicare, and his rabid anti-abortion beliefs. Totally what Democrats believe.
Ronald Reagan could run as a Democrat today.

This is a problem.

Mamdani is sticking his neck out for a bunch of Congressional and other local NYC races. That's where his endorsement matters. Boosting Hochul now is smart, whether you like her or not.

Anyone telling you otherwise is not, in my opinion, worth listening to when it comes to NY political commentary.

Absolutely wrong political analysis right here. BlueSky brain on steroids.

Sorry, guys, but the most recent polling has Hochul wiping the floor with Blakeman in the general and the juiceless Delgado in the primary. Mamdani is being properly transactional here considering what he needs from Albany.

Mamdani is too astute a politician to not endorse Hochul, and for very obvious reasons, he's right to do it early.
NEW: Mayor Mamdani is set to endorse Gov. Hochul’s reelection run this week, providing her a critical inroad with progressive voters, per four sources.

It deals a near fatal blow to Antonio Delgado's campaign.

People don't like it, but successful politics is really about building relationships. Mamdani understands that even if he and Hochul are from different wings of the party, they are 1) From different wings of the *same party*, and 2) He will be more successful if he and the governor are allies.

A minority didn't care for our extended discussion and analysis when the late Queen died. It's not an exaggeration to say that she personally kept Britain united and relevant for 50 years longer than it should have been.
People underestimate the Queen's vital role in maintaining London's lingering political influence on the world.

One of the scariest aspects of the Trump administration is that they continue to make us vulnerable to an ever lengthening list of disasters that haven't happened yet but eventually will.

The Obamas are brilliant, compassionate and patriotic Americans. They represent the best of this country.

Donald Trump is a vile, unhinged and malignant bottom feeder.

Why are GOP leaders like John Thune continuing to stand by him?

Republicans must immediately denounce Trump’s disgusting bigotry.

Credit where it’s due:

This is one hell of a hard nosed bullshit free article by the NYT. It feels like an editor slipped in the word anomalies, but other than that it’s tough & honest, & how news outlets should write about Trump & his racist administration.

Liam was one of hundreds of kids in this facility. Now, my constituent Diana is locked up there, surely frightened and traumatized. Putting kids in cages is so morally bankrupt it’s beyond words.

A note here that this probably reclassifying about 2% of the federal workforce, but it also is going go to SCOTUS sometime,idk, probably next year.

Since his first term, President Trump has wanted to be able to fire federal employees for any reason. A new rule vastly expands his authority to do that. n.pr/4rAiG9M

I honestly support the GOP getting ratfucked and saying "hey wait only we can do that!!"
"We simply do not care what you think about that"? This map will literally go to the voters for approval! It cannot take effect unless a majority of Virginians support it. This talking point is so stupid.
