“police kidnap de blasio’s daughter and issue veiled threat demanding mayor authorize specific tactics” was blip in the press

And NYPD "Adams's protective detail kidnapped an Italian crypto investor and brought him to gangsters who sexually tortured him for his password" "forced him to smoke crack"

"In 1992 New York tried to create a review board for NYPD officers accused of misconduct.

Thousands of off duty cops responded by chanting racial slurs, breaking through barricades outside of city hall, smashing car windows, attacking pedestrians and blocking traffic across the Brooklyn Bridge."

The police will threaten to quit, or at least go on strike. Every kid shoplifting gum will be made to sound like the Lufthansa Heist. Mamdani will be blamed for all of it. Cuomo will fart vague epithets on my liberal TV. Billions will be spent to undermine this guy. The next 4 years.

This piece makes it sound totally normal that the police gets to decide whether or not to "work with" Mamdani as mayor, and it continues, as nearly all the paper's coverage, to wield normative terms like "moderate" and left" in a prejudicial way. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/16/n...

The MTG pivot is a good dragnet for identifying the most gullible people in all of mankind. Also, it's cross-political. You can identify the easiest marks left, right, and center here. A very easy, inoffensive, diverse way to identify our society's finest wallet inspector customers

Throwback to 2017, when they were trying to strip us of healthcare & we went with @indivisible.org to deliver letters from constituents to their senators: the door stayed locked, so I had my husband fly the letters through the transom. Just another day expecting public servants to serve the public.

Any elected official that petrified of facing those they serve are unfit for their position.

The use of terror is not a byproduct of Trumpian politics: it is central to how he governs.

If you are not in academia, you might not know this, but job interviews used to be held at conferences IN HOTEL ROOMS. Women candidates in a hotel room alone with often all-male committees. People sitting on beds! The horror stories I've heard.

I can attest this practice was common, and let me disabuse anyone who thinks practice went away because people realized the obvious unsafe working environment issues—it was Zoom that ended the conference hotel room interview.

I've listened to several podcasts and read several articles on why people are souring on capitalism and they all don't mention Occupy which is weird to me because of nothing else they mainstreamed a lot of the language we use today. And it was a genuinely big deal at the time.
