want a real voice in this year's NYC elections? make sure you've switched parties ***by Feb. 14*** if you want to vote in the primaries in June

(this is ESPECIALLY true for independent/unaffiliated/'blank' voters and third parties like WFP and Conservative)
To Vote in This Summer’s Primary, Switch Your Party Now
You can only vote in NYC primaries if you’re registered with a party — and the deadline is coming up fast.

Hillary Clinton must feel so gaslit that America obsessed over her marriage from the early 90s thru House of Cards.

Now the First Lady doesn’t even live at the White House and no one ever talks about it.

Bot farms that Justin Baldoni and Johnny Depp pay for really do work, so this’ll be hard on Blake. They capitalize on the internet’s instinct to blame, shame, and villainize women. It feels like everyone’s mocking this woman so real people join in. It snowballs until we let guilty men off the hook.
A judge has set a March 9, 2026 date for Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni to go on trial.

The date could be canceled if both sides reach a settlement before then, Variety reports.

Still feels like Hunter Biden getting pardoned (for not paying his taxes) was a bigger news story than Trump pardoning violent criminals who stormed the Capitol.

"Flood the zone with shit" continues to work.

No matter what you think about the TikTok ban, it’s so scary that ByteDance was able to buy a U.S. president’s support.

Jared Goff's forehead is that red BEFORE the game? Does he need a bigger helmet or something?

I don't think presidents should even have the power to pardon.

But arguing that this sets a bad precedent is completely insane! Do you think Trump even knows that precedent and president are different words?

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment

In the past week, the president-elect has said he'll use the military to round up people and deport them, he'll bypass the Senate to make appointments, and he might have a third term.

But every news article is about whether the Harris campaign gave Oprah per diem. We're so screwed.
