What's really annoying is EVERY headlines saying "Zohran Mamdani to Attend 9/11 Memorial Despite Criticism". Criticism?! What criticism?!

"We don't want the Muslim guy there" isn't fucking criticism.

Mainstream media is so cooked. The headlines should say he's going despite islamophobic protests.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Mainstream media reporting this smear campaign from the right in a straight way without any context let alone condemnation is so shameful.

Islamophobia continues to be normalized, the acceptable form of bigotry in the US.

LA broke its contract with its residents!

[charles r. davis @charizardavis]

if this is true, this is an insane way to approach the american electoral system in the present day. look what happened between janury 2025 and now! nothing is certain in 2028. republicans don't do this "electability" crap, because it makes them look weak and they want power! AH!

[Baby Jane Doe @mycolefillups]

Oh so this guy fucking SUCKS! I was following him on insta and didn’t realize he was a racist pos but unfollowed now. He’s more discreet about it on insta but lots of us were following him 🤮

As someone who runs a podcast, I will never beg you to vote for me in a DM. If I do, it's a scam.

This is what Christianity actually looks like in practice

[Josh Olson @joshuarolson]

In case you're wondering - no, Hassan is not worse than Steve Bannon or Ben Shapiro or Charlie Kirk. The reason they're all afraid to have him on is that the instant he opens his mouth, their base will know everything they've been saying about him is a lie.

[dareus. @dareusdesign]

nobody wants to fucking hire.

businesses always talk about how understaffed they are, but then you apply and you get ghosted, or you’re put through 8 rounds of interviews just to get rejected. it’s absurd

[hasanabi @hasanthehun]

he's the mayor of nyc. this demented racist viewpoint isn't even shared by most 9/11 victim families (many of whom voted for z). at a certain point if mainstream outlets don't call this manufactured racial hysteria out by name, one must assume they welcome it right?

[Deep Singh Badhesha @DeepNotShallow]

Hakeem Jeffries can't even keep moderates like Jared Golden & Marie Gluesenkamp Perez in line. So why should progressives back such a weak Speaker if he can't deliver?

Hakeem is at his weakest point right now. No reason to marry the House Majority to him. Find a replacement!

[David Sirota @davidsirota]

The Dem establishment will not give the base these things because the Dem establishment represents the donor class that has a financial interest in never conceding such issues. If Dem voters want these things, they will have to *take* power from the party elites.

[Prof Zenkus @anthonyzenkus]

If you think Democrats are going to be the party that fights to save the working class from AI and Data Centers, think again. When leadership is in bed with Big AI, there's not a chance in hell they will side with us over the tech bros.

[Hayden @the_transit_guy]

You will be told to "drive less" before this country gets serious about building high speed rail and functioning public transit.

This was also one of the most whimsical hotels I've ever stayed in. Felt like something out of fairytale

[Branko Marcetic @BMarchetich]

Newsom will eventually have to make the case to Dem voters why he was happy to yuk it up with Steve Bannon but considers Piker beyond the pale.

[Pastor Ben @BenjaminPDixon]

Imagine how big the "blue wave" would be if establishment dems weren't 100% committed to sandbagging the midterms.

they'd rather stop any notion of socialism than to stop MAGA and Donald Trump, clearly based on their actions and focus

[‏ً @omgsidewalks]

SERIOUS QUESTION: I’m curious but why does it take 900 years and 5000 impact studies to build high speed rail but a 5 minute city council meeting is all it takes to approve a massive data center???????

[Karlos The Frociaggine @KarlosTheFog]

OMG THE CONTROLS AND CAMERA IMPROVEMENT IN KH2 😭♥️
