Here's another bit of conventional wisdom Zohran completely blew away: His speech was at well above a 10th-grade level. It was complex, erudite, punctuated by deep and fluent references. You don't have to condescend to voters with baby talk! Part of re-establishing norms is speaking like an adult.

We believe that in the wealthiest city in the wealthiest nation in the history of the world, working people deserve a dignified life.

And to the billionaires who think this movement is an existential threat to their corruption of our democracy: you're right.

Sliwa to Cuomo: You’re gonna stand up to Trump? You Andrew Cuomo? You lost your own primary and you’re still here because you don’t know the meaning of the word “no”

Mamdani: I agree with Curtis.

Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"

When Trump threatens to nix funding to NYC if Zohran Mamdani wins, it only helps Zohran. It inflates the Trump threat, positions Zohran as a fighter for NYC against Trump, and pushes Cuomo into the role of Trump stooge.

There's a lesson here for Dems.

Trump’s Rage at Zohran Just Backfired in a Surprisingly Revealing Way
The Democrats who are breaking through are the ones who talk about Trump’s disastrous economic record while also leveling with the public about our slide into authoritarianism.

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.

I already beat another guy who cut Medicaid, gave tax breaks to billionaires, and hounded multiple women who accused him of sexual harassment — might as well debate the one actually calling the shots.

trump can issue as many executive orders as he wants, perhaps coverage should reflect the fact that a lot of these have the legal force of a child's wishlist for santa

Every time I see masked ICE officers ripping a parent from their child, I think:

“Americans chose this; they knew this would happen. A lot of people were happy at the thought.”

And I feel that I do not at all understand the country I am in and the world around me.

This video is awful and indicative of the madness of court arrests. But this video seems to be spreading with a likely wrong comment that the man is “renewing his documents.” While I don’t know his exact situation, that’s not what court is for. He likely got a continuance; a future hearing date.

Sometimes people reply to these types of gentle comments with you wouldn’t want the other side to make politicized or mocking comments about you if a Crime occurred to you, and one of many responses to that is: I’m not asking for their sympathy regardless of what happens to me. Have at it
To trump administration personnel who are afraid to step outside in dc, I agree that it must suck to be targeted randomly in the street by a violent gang of out of control thugs who want to take things from you and your family for no good reason, and don’t respect the basics of the rule of law
