This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.
I am not fearful — I am fearless.
We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Senator Gillibrand called on Al Franken to resign.
I think she should resign for falsely smearing Zohran Mamdani as a terrorist.
He has never invoked a ‘global jihad’. This is a nasty, Islamophobic racist smear from a sitting Dem senator.

I have low expectations for @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social, and even I was shocked by the naked Islamophobia that she was engaging in, including falsely accusing him of "global jihad".
I called her office and told them that this behavior is unacceptable from a sitting senator

“Trump’s adventurism abroad and his aggression at home are closely twinned. In both, he claims extraordinary powers,” our columnist Lydia Polgreen writes. “This is a grave threat. It’s also a tantalizing opportunity.”

A majority of Americans oppose both Trump’s adventurism abroad and his aggression at home. Who can unite them?

Stockton, CA: Heavily armed masked kidnappers drove up in an unmarked car and pulled a landscaper out of his truck and kidnapped him. When the landscaping company owner asked the men what they were doing, the kidnappers assaulted him and pulled out a metal baton.

“A U.S. citizen!” And now he’s missing.
Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle.
Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop.

Incredible how when his supporters like him he's trump but when he does something that destroys their lives he's "the government." The real (fantasy) donald trump is always just out of frame, ready to shower us with prosperity if only our stupid government that he's in charge of would let him
