The entire Democratic Party owes a massive debt of gratitude to Zohran Mamdani.
Before his rapid rise, the party was largely rudderless, suffering from a loss of direction, momentum, and self-confidence. By drifting away from the working class, the party naturally saw voters walk away in response.
Mamdani single-handedly corrected the course, bringing vital energy, ideological clarity, and an authentic connection back to the very people who had been left behind.
Without his influence, the party’s current standing would look very different.
Pretty dark stuff going on @TheAtlantic — contributing writer James Kirchick being an open Islamophobic bigot, and the editor Jeffrey Goldberg (a former IDF prison guard) blocking folks who call it out.
Newly-released bodycam footage shows Tennessee National Guard members pointing their guns at 20-year-old Tyrin Johnson as he lay dying in Memphis in July.
Authorities say soldiers shot him as he came at them with a gun, but an autopsy found he was shot in the back.
I'm a doctor in the UK with Palestinian family. I spoke out against genocide and jewish supremacy. My medical licence was suspended.
Dr Eastland Staveley, a jewish GP, said he didn't shoot enough babies in Gaza. He is practising medicine freely in Britain.
They proved my point.
THIS IS INSANE. He drugged her so that he could shove abortion pills into her mouth and vagina. He made an online pharmacy account in her name so he could secretly have the pills shipped to West Point. She also wanted to keep the baby. He even threatened that he would kill himself if she didn't get an abortion. She refused because she wanted to be a mother, so he drugged her to terminate the pregnancy. He left her there, and when she awoke, she called 911. She said she was in and out of consciousness during the attack, and every time she tried to spit the pills out, he would shove them back into her mouth.
He then went on to study at CORNELL and graduated with his BA in emergency medicine (ironic) in 2024. Yes, he was enrolled the same year the gang rape happened at the fraternity. He then enrolled at Columbia, where he is STILL enrolled. But it gets crazier because he asked if the judge could delay his sentencing so he could finish his semester at Columbia, and the judge granted the request. This piece of shit is allowed to complete his education after assaulting a woman. Meanwhile, there is no update on whether she even finished her schooling after the assault because of the mental and physical trauma she experienced.
This is ANOTHER case of a university being aware of a student sexually assaulting someone and still allowing them to finish their schooling. @Columbia should have expelled him immediately. Why are these schools protecting disgusting men?
Google is using its search monopoly to coerce schools into adopting AI. This highlights the danger of allowing an unregulated monopolist to control an essential service.
Multiple courts have found Google liable for violating antitrust laws, and this latest move shows it remains unchastened.
As the public increasingly pushes back against the use of AI in schools, Google is making clear it will punish those who don’t fall in line.
She wasn’t assaulted because she’s Jewish, she was assaulted because she turned to a bystander and said ‘doesn’t she dress like she’d be raped in Iran’.
Whether you believe in fighting words or not, this was objectively not the hate crime you’re making it out to be.
I’ve been notified of another death in ICE custody — the 62nd under this administration.
Today, WE have the power to stop this cruelty and hold ICE accountable.
