This is the funniest opening line from someone witnessing a shooting that I've seen in forever. A perfect interview all around, honestly

Omg I’m dying 😂😂😂…so…So Emily Austin, a right wing 'influencer' who works for Bibi and the GOP, launched 'Hot Girls for Cuomo'.

Guess who didn't bother to register the URL when she did that? What do you think Hot Girls for Cuomo dot com leads to now?... 😄 Enjoy.

San Bruno CA, site of WWII memorial for former Tanforan Race Track. Here so-called assembly center (one of several in the west) was set up to imprison 8,000 Japanese Americans in horse stalls until incarceration camps were complete. Most of the incarcerated at Tanforan were shipped to Topaz, Utah.

Early US suffragists were inspired by the equality they saw in the indigenous
Haudenosaunee matrilineal society. In contrast to European women of the era, Haudenosaunee women owned property in addition to holding leadership positions in their communities #WomensArt

as someone whose mother still calls him “salvatore” and who ate braciole multiple times a week as a child I feel I have the credentials to say Mamdani is right, fuck Columbus. he should be replaced with someone like Scorsese, Italo Calvino, Giada De Laurentiis or my personal preference, Mike Piazza

I think most people (myself included) don’t have an intuition for orders of magnitude (e.g., the difference between millionaire and billionaire).

One way to appreciate this is time, since we all experience it. Here's the difference between a thousand, a million, and a billion seconds.

ICE now has a bigger budget that the Russian military. And they’re in the middle of an invasion of another country.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
