Mamdani: Oftentimes when we win elections, we tell people to go home and just trust us. But the message really has to be that we want you to come along with us… That’s something we’ve been looking to share with New Yorkers: We want to not only win with New Yorkers, but also govern with New Yorkers.

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?

I love soccer and I remember each World Cup with great intensity and always so much look forward to the next. But FIFA that was disgusting, even more disgusting than usual, and now I just can’t. And won’t.

The basic problem with the United States' call for Europe to lead on conventional forces while it takes care of nuclear deterrence.
It's not credible the US would fight a nuclear war over Europe if they aren't willing to contribute conventionally.

The absolute idiocy and moral bankruptcy of asking these stupid questions when russia kills Ukrainians in the occupied territory for speaking Ukrainian and Ru occupiers talk about the need to kill millions of Ukr if necessary and re-educate the rest until all Ukrainians accept they are russian.
are russians prohibited from using their native tongue in an official capacity? sounds like a rights violation to me

And look, I was fully prepared to believe that Sydney Sweeney meant nothing by that American Eagle ad, though I think the copywriters knew what game they were playing.

But when your "disavowal" is so mealy-mouthed, well, it makes it a lot harder to believe you didn't mean it.

“Traumatized, humiliated, degraded.”

The nurse, a US citizen, 4’11”, 85 lbs, says she was following orders when she was dragged out of her car by masked immigration agents in Florida.

It was the 3rd time she had been stopped and told to produce ID.

Watching Melenchon histrionically calling for an understanding w "the russians" is pure rage bait. Not only does he disregard Ru's crimes, he speaks as if Ukr right to exist is irrelevant. The gall of claiming he stands for equality/human rights while calling to consign Ukr to Ru occupation!

We had more clarity before Russia flattened half of Donbas, gassed people in Syria, abducted 20,000 Ukrainian children, and burned countless Ukrainian families with missiles and drones than we do now.
