Well, if it lead to a Democratic Socialist leading the financial capital of the USA that’s something.

Newsom/Greene 2028, lmao (please let this be a joke!)

“I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life.” - Mayor-elect Mamdani

He is doing his speech now… I’m nearly brought to tears.

Here’s the thing. Mamdani’s a good man, the mayor has some levers like rent control, but he doesn’t have the power to fix everything about the city completely alone. He will need every New Yorker who was moved by his campaign to help him accomplish his promises.

AP calls the race for Mamdani as well.

Beacon of hope in a dark time for America. Now it’s time for all New Yorkers to prepare to make the city that lifts everyone up in a way that every North American city would want to emulate.

To do that (assuming rules mean anything to Republicans) they will have to swear Grijalva in as Congresswoman, and the Epstein files would be set for release so who knows if they will.

They’ve never done a thing like this.

Ikr! Like grow a bit more than half a spine!

If the next The Hunger Games prequel needs more filming locations for Panem, this gaudy-ass bathroom would fit right in.

Situation Normal:

Stop-and-frisk/Terry Stops are apparently legal in Illinois, and in most states, if an officer has reasonable suspicion which (as not-a-lawyer) I think taking the picture to run facial recognition counts as a frisk. The current temporary ruling is that existing with brown skin is a reasonable suspicion of illegal immigration crime to this Supreme Court.

So, really, all you can do is give your real name, ask for a lawyer and ask if you are being detained or if you may leave the area. If you’re let go, calmly notify others in person and online of ICE activity. If you’re being arrested, get others’ attention by raising your voice letting people know to get their badge and plate numbers.

It’s within earshot and part of his visit to Japan. I’ve clarified my comment, thanks for pointing it out.

See Vance’s comments here

Vice President Vance urged Senate Republicans at a lunch meeting Tuesday to keep the pressure on Senate Democrats by not allowing votes on legislation to pay SNAP benefits or air traffic controllers during the shutdown, according to Republican senators who attended the meeting.

Vance urged GOP senators to stick with Thune’s strategy of holding repeated votes on a House-passed continuing resolution to fund the government through Nov. 21.

His argument, according to GOP sources familiar with the discussion, is that passing “rifle-shot” measures to reopen the parts of the government would take the pressure off Democrats and possibly extend the shutdown.

Passing such bills in the Senate would also put pressure on the Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) to reconvene the House to take up the legislation, further undermining the broader strategy of isolating Senate Democrats during the shutdown.

Make Americans starve so that we can own the libs. Shortchange the air traffic controllers deliberately so that we can pretend it’s Democrats’ fault. Don’t let any compromise measure pass, because then Johnson will have to let the new Congressperson in and release the Epstein files.

And telling it to in Japan of all countries🤦.

Oops. The strategy to put on a cruel and embarrassing display to dissuade investment, and then ask for unilateral investment isn’t working?

Firings at the DOJ in 3… 2… 1…

I hope that if he doesn’t show, then he would get physically dragged into court in the same manner his department’s agents dragged a blind non-violent protestor in Portland who wasn’t even in their way.

Trump Trauma Room… for everyone to remember the peril MAGA Republicans have caused.

Trump admin lied, so the higher court stopped stopping the stop the lower court put to the administration’s activities in Portland.

That means the court is currently saying “Trump cannot send troops to Portland”.

There we are again… any remotely threatening statement against the administration is antifa terrorism, but threats against state and local officials are freely given from this administration.
