It's not just what Andrew Cuomo is saying—it's who's funding him.

The single largest donor to a pro-Cuomo SuperPAC is Airbnb cofounder/board member Joe Gebbia, who promotes vile and racist messages about immigrants.

People from all over are showing up for DC. This is not a moment. It’s a movement. We are united in our demands. We are all DC! #FreeDC

Threatening children and making families afraid to drive around their own city endangers DC families and the freedoms and futures of us all.

Real public safety looks like fully-funded schools and public services—not President Trump’s hostile takeover of the U.S. capital.

Grateful we have journalists like Kainoa Lowman and @glastris.bsky.social who can correct the abundant myths spun by the Ezra Kleins of the world.

Ezra Klein and abundance liberals blame red tape for broadband delays. But the real story behind Biden’s BEAD program is far more complicated.

I dislike Newsome with a passion, but if Trump and the Republicans actually go through and start arresting blue state governors for standing up to their fascist raids Americans are going to need to stop everything they are doing until we are rid of the fascist menace. bsky.app/profile/thet...
JUST NOW — Trump says Homan should arrest Governor Gavin Newsom: "I would do it if I were Tom. I think it's great. I think it would be a great thing.”

For the data nerds out there, here's a chart of the largest coordinated protests in U.S. history from my 2018 book HOW TO READ A PROTEST

Today's "Hands Off" protests, in 1000+ locations around the country, rank as one of the very largest decentralized days of protests EVER.

Alright going to start a new thread of protests as things have absolutely exploded across the country in the time was at the Minnesota state capital.

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

Wittenberg University in Springfield, Ohio says someone has threatened to shoot Haitians on campus. All events canceled for the 15th. The republican greyzone war is doing exactly what is intended terrorizing the population and disrupting society. If you asked what greyzone war looked like it’s this

"Ron DeSantis says trans people are decadent perverts but Nikki Haley says they're sickly eunuchs. As always we turn to our panel--a failed Democratic Senate candidate, a former RNC chair, and a copy of The Weekly Standard from 1999."

So much of it is duplicative. Such as “I don’t care what you do in private, stop doing it in public so much.”

It’s all the same shit, what’s actually bizarre is how many people who work in media, who should be the most aware of this, seem to be the most oblivious.
It's good to have a reminder that it was only a couple decades ago that media outlets would publish "ex-gay" movement nonsense as front page stories. It puts the current obsession with "detransitioners" in perspective. It's the same panic, same tactic.
