This cannot surprise anyone who has worked an email job
Putting aside all the horrible shit in them: I cannot believe the global elite composes emails like fucking horses who somehow learned to crudely type. My emails read like Shakespeare compared to the lowercased, unpunctuated screeds written to the worlds biggest pedophile. Fucking write like adults!

MSNBC reported Schumer's office felt that the longer that shutdown went on, the more likely it was that people would start to blame the Dems.
My kingdom for Democrats that don't govern out of fear. I've said it before and I'll say it again: The American people are far braver than their reps.

I thought he was just a guy from LI who didn't want to have to live in NYC under Mamdani. I was wrong, he's from NYC. He has financial ties to Israel and no firefighting experience (he was appointed last summer and uhm a lot was going on). From wikipedia.
![In 1999 Tucker became chairman and CEO of T&M Protection Resources, a company specializing in security, intelligence and investigations.[4][5] In 2007 Tucker restructured T&M as a limited liability company and sold a minority interest to Pegasus Capital Advisors as well as another private investor.[6]
In 2008 Tucker and Pegasus commenced a plan to invest jointly in acquisitions of security companies in Israel which has resulted in T&M's subsidiary, T&M Holding Israel Ltd, becoming one of the largest security and janitorial service companies in the country with over 7,000 employees.[7]
Tucker was appointed FDNY fire commissioner by New York City Mayor Eric Adams on August 12, 2024. Six weeks before Tucker was appointed FDNY commissioner, eight employees of Tucker’s former business made political contributions to Adams on the same day.[8] Tucker has never been a firefighter or emergency response official. He is a self-described "fire buff" who cites his time as a young boy chasing fire engines as inspiration for his service.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:tbezmmltvdtjthfeaftfoop6/bafkreibvudxo6p54clvc756ilfhiptcxdisgtzzglmxpdkfjavp36vslie@jpeg)

After taking a day to reflect, as New Yorker by birth who has always been priced out, and as someone who has been thinking deeply about the practice of Black Studies as it intersects with History, this is where I’m at about Mamdani’s victory:

“Anti-trans positions are not popular & Americans do not like them. But women’s sports leagues like the NWSL should also be paying attention. If they follow the wave of transphobic policy that has taken over women’s sports at all levels, they will be on the wrong side of history & it will be ugly.”
NEW! “Eddy’s appearance on Fox and Friends this morning was perhaps a sign that she is setting herself for a post-soccer career that mirrors another underperforming athlete—Riley Gaines.”
someone tell the women's sports leagues that transphobia is a losing issue
also, have the transphobes tried simply being better at sports??

Perplexed by Ryan Adams. He combined country music with a snotty punk rock attitude, and is also racist and stupid? A head scratcher.
