“You can’t kill us all, Nazis” is particularly remarkable and moving because ICE agents could of course kill everyone literally there
ICE agents stopped by protesters after the shooting an observer in Minneapolis, according to witnesse. ICE deployed pepper spray and tear gas.

The American people electing Trump after he staged a coup attempt 5 years ago was a nail in the coffin of our democracy. You can rationalize it all you want - But inflation! But wokeness! - but ultimately it was a societal suicide attempt and probably the dumbest collective voting decision ever made

he called me a Nazi and told me that I was verging on libel. my response was "why would I take legal advice from you. the last Nazi you represented is going to die in prison."
say, remember when some guy on twitter smoked him? "the last Nazi you represented is going to die in prison", something like that.

this is the most incredible interview i’ve ever read. the aei guy tries so hard to get sliwa to trash mamdani and he simply won’t. he also brings up flaco (rip) unprompted.

![How would you describe Mamdani's politics?
He's not a communist. People call him that. That's ridiculous. He is a democratic socialist. David Dinkins [New York mayor from 1990-93] was a democratic socialist. We've had a long history in New York City of socialism.
What's the biggest challenge Mamdani faces as mayor!
I don't think the Zohranistas totally understand the fiscal irresponsibility we just went through with the Adams years and how little money there's left.
There's not enough money to do all the things that Zohran wants to do.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ssxnmhdtz6le6nxu7jfhglz6/bafkreic7pxra6vmrjmqo4jmw4vdagiluj6xtkovqb3f4ex7fc55m7pzaxu@jpeg)

Weiss believes she is engaged in a game in which the point is self-aggrandizement, and that everyone else is involved in that same game, and she fundamentally cannot *understand* criticism on the grounds of integrity or virtue.
The most telling Bari Weiss incident came when "The Free Press" excused George Floyd's murder, @radleybalko.bsky.social highlighted factual errors, and Weiss's reaction was not to make corrections, but to invite Balko on a podcast.
There is no truth, there are no standards, there is only content.

Every part of this is embarrassingly lame.

There is literally 0 electoral incentive not to drone strike any given person in the world. Hardly anyone in the US actually cares and those who do are so high on their supply of 'uniparty! both sides same!' that they won't notice
It was one thing when Biden got no credit for ending the drone war. It's fucking farcical that the same people literally don't give a shit that Trump is restarting the drone war.
