Can we call them Nazis now?
Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

Brownshirts Redux
Armed Trump administration agents wearing masks just showed up outside of Gavin Newsom’s press conference.

This is what rising fascism looks like.

WIRED sent a detailed request for comment to the Department of Justice at 7:40 am on Tuesday. Two minutes later, Natalie Baldassarre, a public affairs officer for the DOJ, replied: “Refer you to the FBI.” The FBI declined WIRED’s request for comment.

Little Haiti is vibrant. And it’s facing the same cost of living crisis as neighborhoods across the city.

That's why Brooklyn Chair Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn and I are bringing the Democratic Party together around a shared vision for an affordable New York. I am grateful for her endorsement!

This is a staggering amount of money. It’s bigger than the Department of Transportation spending on all infrastructure. It’s bigger than all of the federal R&D done for both the military and all federal science agencies. Disgusting.
Where we are as a country:

"The funding in the bill will make ICE the largest jailer in the world, with $200 billion at their disposal."

Lisa Murkowski can, and I cannot stress this enough, fuck all the way off
Sen. Lisa Murkowski, one of Trump’s most vocal Republican critics in the chamber, said in a podcast she’d consider becoming an independent and caucusing with Dems in certain situations.
Murkowski suggests she could become an Independent in the right circumstance
“There is some openness to exploring something different than the status quo,” she said in a podcast set to drop Tuesday.

On Friday night, we walked the length of Manhattan, from Inwood Hill to Battery Park.

New Yorkers deserve a Mayor they can see, hear, even yell at. The city is in the streets.

Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was placed in handcuffs at Delaney Hall, an ICE detention center in Newark NJ after an argument with agents.

Members of congress where there for a scheduled visit and were shoved after trying to include Baraka in conversations after he gained entry through the gate.
