I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

Look I feel like I shouldn’t have to say this but if you’re a liberal and the president is like “We are going to detain and deport this guy for protesting” the correct response is not “Protesting what?”

The easiest way out of this was to avoid it with a Harris victory but the American people, are greedy, stupid, cruel, selfish, and spoiled. The next best way was with a strong Democratic Congressional response, but Schumer and Jeffries are unimaginative, weak, and lazy machine politicians.

That fact even Ron DeSantis and Dave Portnoy are repulsed by the Trump administration’s effort to free the Tate brothers means this is a useful thing we can exploit to get normal people to turn on the regime.
“Trump and Musk are importing rapists to rape your American daughters” is *true*.

I don't know anything about Colombian politics or whether the president is a good person or not, but what I can say is that his statement in response to Trump carries the fury of a disrespected Arab aunty. He literally invoked his ancestors back to the Pharaohs.

if you kill a disfavored person in the street the leaders of the republican party will try to make you a national hero. absolutely not an ominous sign for the future.
If there were an RNC coming up, Daniel Penny would absolutely be a speaker.

BREAKING: Autonomous anti-genocide activists bring the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade to a grinding halt after blockading the McDonald’s float for a second year in a row.
“Those grinches who thinks they can disrupt the parade: it’s not going to happen,” Mayor Eric Adams said yesterday.

Democrats will often look at something that doesn’t poll well and think “oh no, better move away from that!” but they’re getting their role backwards. parties influence public opinion. if you’re purely reactive, you’re just letting the GOP frame every debate.
the lesson of the election isn’t “we should give up on trans rights,” it’s that the GOP took an issue that negatively impacted almost no one and made it a headliner. why would it help to surrender on an issue if they can create a grievance from thin air?

I am finding it quite unbearable to watch Sarah McBride bear the grotesque attack of her colleagues with so much grace. I know it is what we have been taught to expect of trailblazers, but I am increasingly struggling to accept this.

By my count, there's four members of the incoming Trump administration accused of rape or sexual assault - Trump himself, Peter Hegseth, Matt Gaetz, and RFK Jr (all of whom, with the exception of RFK Jr. have denied the allegations against them).

as long as journalists and pundits act as if they are amateur political strategists & not people trying to understand and tell the truth about the world, they are going to take the implicit view that voters can never be wrong, which then demands endless explanation of their morally blameless choice

All the "confront your racist uncle at Thanksgiving" shit people say they want everyone to do, every Jewish person I know actually just did that at the risk of their relationships with their elders.
"Listen to Jewish people!" Ok pretty much all of the Jewish people I know and care about are protesting Israel's actions and getting arrested and brutalized by cops for their values. Oh you don't mean them, you mean the strangers online calling for more death, I see
