If Democratic HASC and SASC leaders aren't on the phone with current AND former service chiefs tonight getting assurances that the active duty military won't follow unlawful orders, then they are derelict in their duties
I’m gonna say armed troops from red states descending on a blue city is just a few inches — or maybe one exchange of gunfire — short of a civil war’s opening stages.
WASHINGTON (AP) — South Carolina, Ohio also sending National Guard troops to DC in further escalation of federal intervention in Dem city.

It’s not the main point of everything but it is a little brain breaking that there’s an “antisemitism panic” about a bunch of anti-genocide college students instead of an antisemitism panic about all the guys in our federal government who worship Hitler.

Jew here - Zohran doesn’t have to do shit and he should hold the line against these Zionist freaks, free Palestine
Kind of weirded out by all of these non-Jewish politicians claiming to speak on behalf of the Jews, I have to say.

NYT running a story based on illegally hacked info obtained by a white supremacist is fine, but one of their columnists criticizing that is a bridge too far
I deleted several posts about a Times story because they violated Times social media standards.

My mom and stepdad are from the same diaspora group as Zohran Mamdani’s dad (same like “my stepdad was kicked out of the same town and knows some of his classmates”) and apparently the New York Times doesn’t understand how diaspora works, so I am going to tell you a little about my mom’s people!

If you’re going to sit here and say “the economic situation is fine actually” and then say “the political situation is in dire crisis” I’m just going to assume you’re a moron

It has a very real chance of failing—and *even if it passes with changes* it still has to go BACK to the Senate to get voted on AGAIN. And it barely made it through the first time

This thing is way more killable than you’d think and the longer we can drag out the process the more killable it gets
If you just look at social media instead of news sources, you might believe the “big beautiful bill” has passed already.

It hasn’t. It still needs to go through the House, where it has a strong chance of failing — so yes, feel as sad and angry and scared as you need, but PLEASE CALL YOUR REPS.

CALL A REP.
Here is a list of GOP House members (h/t @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social) who should be targeted with calls about the MAGA Murder Budget ASAP.

This is true. Safety-net hospitals in both rural and urban areas are already stretched thin, in part because of the exhaustion and attrition of healthcare workers after COVID. If outpatient Medicaid collapses, the deluge in unreimbursed ER visits and admissions will drown the system.
Spoke with someone who works with a public hospital system. His assessment of the effects of the GOP spending bill: “I think this is going to be a very apparent catastrophe, very quickly.”

BREAKING

The University of Pennsylvania has come to an agreement with the Trump administration on what the Department of Education said was its Title IX violations.

This will include stripping trans athlete Lia Thomas of her records, titles, and recognitions.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Tagging onto this theory: Adoption of Zionism among American Jews coincides with their assimilation into whiteness. They gave up old country collectivism and tradition and now their only tie to their faith is support of Israel.
My theory is that they (sort of correctly) regard New York as the actual center of Jewish life, and are horrified by the notion that it might be ambivalent if not hostile to Israeli scolding
The absolute screaming hysterics a group of Jewish posters are having in response to Mamdani’s win is honestly fascinating to me

Haaretz, an Israeli newspaper, reports that IDF soldiers and officers told the newspaper that they were "ordered to fire at unarmed crowds near food distribution sites in Gaza, even when no threat was present."
IDF soldiers have now themselves admitted they have been ordered to murder aid-seekers in Gaza.

Truly an atrocity built on atrocity.

A fascinating map from @donnermaps.bsky.social overlaying Tuesday's Dem primary results with a map of the NYC subway system.

Inspired by an astute observation from @kleinman.bsky.social, who noted that Mamdani did better in areas served by the subway while Cuomo did better in car-centric areas.

Biden will go down as truly one of the most damaging presidents in American history.

He paved the way for everything happening right now.
I still don't understand how the first priority of the Biden administration was not to reform and expand SCOTUS. It's the *only* thing that matters.

"it is crucial to observe who played 9/11 Politics against Zohran. Who made a deliberate point of trying to make Jews like me hate and fear Zohran. It was DoorDash, Bloomberg, Ackman, Karp, and the rest. It was capital." www.forever-wars.com/this-is-the-...

Capital and nativism will fight even harder against Zohran Mamdani now. But in capital's seat of power, socialism defeated barbarism. I fucking love New York

I saw so many people talking about how Mamdani and Lander were clearly running because they love their city and want to make life better there, while Cuomo seems to hate and fear it, and that feels like the key piece of this campaign that could be replicable by progressives everywhere
Great point by Courtney Gross on @spectrumnewsny1.bsky.social. The portrait of the City painted by Andrew Cuomo (and many of the city's elites) as a crime-ridden, apocalyptic hellhole ... it just doesn't match what most New Yorkers see every day.

Sorry the election happened and Zohran put up dictator numbers in Park Slope. Jews are fine with him.
