Hey! If you’ve ever liked my voice, now, before the end of the year, would be a really good time to hire me for any SAG-approved projects!

One of my friends who is visiting lives in Albany Park in Chicago and listening to her talk about what’s been going on and watching her cry and feel helpless…

She was a union organizer. She’s used to organizing in less than ideal conditions. She’s not brand new.

She’s horrified and traumatized.

Mamdani says in his victory speech, “we will hire thousands of teachers.”

This, and not the proprietary chatbot classroom, is the future of education.

This NYT story about how Mamdani dealt with the opposition by the city's elites fails to mention one particular elite institution: The NYT editorial page, which last June railed against him as "uniquely unsuited to the city’s challenges... lacks political savvy"

The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.

It didn't matter.

Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

! I've been banging this drum for months

Due process is how you determine things like 'is this person a citizen' & 'did they break a law'

GOP's insistence that noncitizens & lawbreakers shouldn't get due process is putting the racism-cart before the logic-horse

these guys have no theory of his mind. “he wants to change the subject from epstein!!” my man, he wants to rule over the country as a military-backed dictator and permanently disempower you politically, and probably eventually send me and my friends to camps. a domestic deployment is a big deal!

It is mind blowing to hear Democratic politicians talking about the president sending the military into American cities as a “distraction.” Actually you are all now one degree away from being violently removed from power. The fact that this may not happen does not erase the fact that it may happen.

We’ve discovered a literal miracle with almost unlimited potential and it’s being scrapped for *no reason whatsoever*. This isn’t even nihilism, it’s outright worship of death and human suffering.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.
Release from HHS: HHS will wind down its development of the mRNA vaccine development activities under the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA).
