That’s the way to handle corruption.
I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.

He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

Can we just celebrate the (literal) platform devoted to transportation advocates — and trans advocates! — at NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani's inauguration.

What would this even look like in LA for the inauguration of our next mayor??? Yes, I am asking for both your suggestions of mayor and advocates 😉

Would you eat chicken washed in chlorine?

Trump is yet again pushing the UK to accept lower food and animal welfare standards in exchange for a tech deal. That means unsafe meat on our shelves and British farmers undercut.

We fought this before and won. Now we need to do it again.

If her concern were really about the victims, names in The Epstein Files would be said out loud — on the House floor.

Sadly, this is the way Australia is going. We have a faux left-wing government and a rabid, 100% right-wing media. #auspol
We're becoming an authoritarian right-wing one-party state and we didn't even need a coup this time out. Just a bunch of shitty newspapers and massive sellouts across politics/civil society

After seeing Ley’s atrocious rant today, it is as well to remember this is the party John Howard destroyed projecting internal division out into the world. It’s ugly and dangerous, aided and abetted by an equally broken media, but it isn’t winning them any friends.
