Weird to go to bed reading about the Brown shooting. Waking up to news about the Bondi Beach shooting and to be heading to bed reading that Rob Reiner and his wife were apparently stabbed to death.
I hope everyone affected finds some kind of peace.

Zohran really crushed the Democratic establishment and neutered Trump and right-wing attacks against him less than a year after polling at 1%.

Worth reiterating: Zohran Mamdani acknowledged and denounced Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people while standing in the White House on live television right next to the President.

Fuck centrist Dems.
The Democrats will accept Marjorie Taylor Greene into the tent before they accept Zohran Mamdani.
Raskin: We are a big tent. We must be a huge, vast tent. I say this is a party that’s got room for Marjorie Taylor Greene if she wants to come over.

I have never been more ashamed to be a democrat. Voting with Republicans to end the shut down without obtaining any tangible concession on the ACA subsidies is beyond shameful.. all incumbent senators and congressman need to be voted out of office in the 2026 midterms. They’re all corrupt.

we can chalk it up to youth and inexperience but the biggest mistake the mamdani campaign made was winning by 8.8% and not 1.5%, which is the margin needed for the media to say it’s a total mandate

Watching Mamdani's victory speech, I'm struck by his—and his campaign's—unabashed vision of the US as an immigrant society, a culture built from the ground up from diversity. It is a complete rejection and reversal of the search for a white-washed homogeneity that the political right projects.

“Living in the shadows” - you eloquently stated what I as a brown Muslim woman have been quietly enduring for decades… it’s been suffocating.
No more.

The dream of every Muslim is simply to be treated the same as any other New Yorker.
And yet, for too long, we have been told to ask for less than that, and endure hatred and bigotry in the shadows.
