"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis
Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

The thing that stands out here is so many Dems run campaigns terrified of (and thus buying into) the Fox News framing.
Mamdani is rightly mocking that framing as ridiculous and it resonates. He's not running scared. He's running proud of who he is and what he stands for.

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.
But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.
See you soon, NYC.

He lost his wallet, which had his green card, and made an appointment in Philly to replace it. There he was handcuffed & taken away with no explanation. “His wife, who speaks little English, was left behind and kept in the building for 10 hours until she was released to her granddaughter.” He’s 82.

The entirety of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health was wiped out last night in a form letter sent by RFK Jr.
NIOSH is an agency in the CDC that investigates workplace hazards and finds solutions. It protects workers, so it’s gone. Even firefighters.

Quick note to the guy who keeps threatening to kill me: Tighten up those first few paragraphs.
This is not a terrible example, perhaps. I think the Washington Post is just a little confused as to what the Trump “message” actually is. I mean, he “veered” according to whom?
