People who are scared of big cities have it backward. The closer you are to your neighbors the better you are at seeing them as human. The people who are scared of “random shootings” in the cities are also sniping lost teens in their driveways in the exurbs.
Still thinking about this story. Imagine how cooked your brain has to be on Fox News -- how terrified you have to be, every day in your isolated suburban castle -- to start *shooting* when you see brown people at your door, before the door is even open. We're such a nation of terrified cowards.
Cleaning worker who mistakenly went to wrong home fatally shot: Police
The shooting victim died from a gunshot wound to the head, the coroner's office said.

The New York Times quickly sending out Douthat to argue that Mamdani’s victory doesn’t really matter is so predictable it borders on self-parody.
Remember, folks: Every time the Right wins an election, it’s an undeniable expression of the will of the people. If a lefty wins, it’s just a blip.

To put this in scale, Elon Musk's salary from Tesla alone could fund the SNAP program for the entire country into 2034.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk scored a resounding victory on Thursday as shareholders approved a pay package of as much as $878 billion over the next decade, endorsing his vision of morphing the EV maker into an AI and robotics juggernaut.

Once again, @govpritzker.illinois.gov's state police have attacked protesters while doing crowd control for ICE in Broadview. Pritzker positions himself as a Trump opponent, but he's doing ICE's dirty work in Broadview. It has to stop.

This is Pritzker's Illinois State Police. Guess they don't have to come through you if they're coming from you.
State troopers in riot gear just plowed into the crowd, started arresting protesters and clergy.

Many news reports are nodding to the fact that Charlie Kirk was “controversial“ but not getting specific about his hateful comments about women, Black people and immigrants. Such rhetoric must be allowed in a free country, and his murder is an outrage. But it Is no reason for whitewashing.

once again it is not fucking normal to lower flags in oregon for random member of the opposing political party who was born in illinois, lived in arizona, and died in utah. this is not a normal thing they're extending to a white supremacist, it's a special thing they're doing for a white supremacist
Oregon governor Tina Kotek, a gay woman, is ordering flags to be flown at half-staff to honor a podcaster who said gay people should be stoned to death.

Everyone running for public office needs to unequivocally say whether they support Trump’s attacks on Iran — attacks which put hundreds of millions of lives at risk.
My answer is an unequivocal NO and there’s no excuse for a candidate to say anything different.

Legit the best thing any Dem has done to date in response to Trump and it happened because he cared more about serving his constituents than public polling about immigration.
