periodically I'll see a backlash that goes a little too far or seems kinda unfair. i never say anything because i think we need to be kinda unhinged and zealous in our response to this shit. I'd take an honest-to-God crusade against this stuff over letting it proliferate.
We can do even more.

A man and his wife were stabbed to death, and the POTUS runs them down because they dared to criticize him while alive.

I don't want to EVER hear SHIT from any Republicans ever again about decency or decorum. They have none themselves. They are rabid dogs, lashing out at anyone and anything.

A million Muslims live in New York City. We belong here, as does every other New Yorker.

This is vile Islamophobia from the Councilwoman and it has no place in our city.

He has aphasia from frontal lobe dementia. They are labeling rooms in the White House so he knows where he is. Take comfort knowing he won’t make it to the midterms. The good news is that the more overtly vicious and ugly he gets, the more his brain is rotting. Praise God.

Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

The Supreme Court’s conservative majority suggested it would overturn a unanimous 90-year-old decision that has limited when presidents can fire agencies’ board members—in part to try to ensure decision making free of political influence—or leave it with only its shell intact.
US Supreme Court Poised to Expand Trump’s Power, Let Him Fire Independent Agency Members
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday seemed likely to expand presidential control over independent federal agencies, signaling support for President Donald Trump’s firing of board members.

Two babies were born in New York within a year of each other, soon after WWII.

One, Rob Reiner, lived a life of humanity and achievement. He brought us delight and joy. His memory will be a blessing.

The other, Donald Trump, will be remembered as an embarrassment to our nation.

So happy that Bernie is on the AI case.
Mark Zuckerberg is building a data center in Louisiana that will use 3x more electricity than all of New Orleans.

Oligarchs want YOU to pay for these data centers with higher water & electric bills.

For Trump and Miller, the Abrego Garcia case was a crucial gauge of how far they could get in disappearing undesirables and placing them beyond the law entirely.

Judge Xinis' ruling is important in that context. It calls out Trump's lawless conduct throughout. 2/

“Let me state the obvious:
Antisemitism is always wrong.
Islamophobia is always wrong.
Intentionally killing civilians is always wrong, whether on a beach in Sydney or a beach in Gaza.
Can we not all agree on all of the above? Is that really so hard” - my take for Zeteo’s First Draft newsletter:
The (Muslim) Hero of Bondi
Mehdi on the Islamophobes' response to the brutal killing of Jews in Australia; how the DOGE folks are headed for Gaza; and the fallout from the Bari Weiss/Erika Kirk CBS town hall.

Rob Reiner was a creative genius and a lovely man, with such passion and principle, including on politics. I had the privilege of interviewing him once. And of course A Few Good Men is one of my favorite movies of all time.
Rest in power, Rob.
