“The Mayor himself will come out and protect you of ICE tries to grab you off the streets” is actually a winning political campaign message that a lot of people need to hear right now, why do these people keep thinking any of this makes Mamdani sound any less based?

Kristi Noem didn’t approve FEMA rescue teams for over 72 hours after the Texas floods, following a rule she imposed that required her personal sign-off on any operation over $100K.
This is inexcusable. She should resign.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

This exciting resolution from Rutgers University Senate is exactly the kind of model I think higher ed needs: a mutual defense pact of, in this case, Big 10 schools. They call for member institutions to create a joint defense fund and make resources available to any member institution under attack.

Republicans snuck a provision into the rule for the CR that would preemptively surrender congressional authority to block tariffs.
When House Republicans vote for this rule today, they will also be voting to support Trump's tariffs and all the resulting damage to the US economy
