Robbed at gunpoint of all electronics so Google locks me out. (Twitter, too.) Impossible to talk to a human being. I won't give up until I get my life restored.

"Find yourself someone who looks at you the way Donald Trump looks at Zohran Mamdani."

It was both a privilege and lots of fun to introduce @NYCMayor Zohran Mamdani at Zeteo's 2nd birthday party in New York on Wednesday night.

Watch his brief and inspiring remarks to us below:

[Jessica Tarlov @JessicaTarlov]

The ceasefire was a complete fiction. While the White House announced one, missiles were still flying across Israel, Iran, and Lebanon. Reality doesn’t match the headline.

The White House was forced to backtrack today because the proposed “10-point deal” from Iran was a disaster that would let them enrich uranium, fund proxies like Hezbollah, maintain leverage over the Strait of Hormuz, and get sanctions relief. Even top allies like Mark Levin and Larry Kudlow are calling it a disaster.

Let’s be honest about how we got here: there was never an imminent threat to the U.S. Now we’re stuck in it, negotiating from a weakened position.

From our cold dead hands

[Laiken Jordahl @LaikenJordahl]

Every single river outfitter in the Big Bend region joined a flotilla today at Santa Elena Canyon to deliver one message to DHS and Governor Abbott: You can pry this river from their cold, dead hands.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Montana — yes, deep red Montana — has a plan to effectively neuter Citizens United.

No Supreme Court ruling or constitutional amendment needed.

Here's how it works.

[Bill Madden @maddenifico]

Completely opposite of Trump's inability to handle even the slightest criticism, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani got heckled and watch how he handles it — with complete eloquence, humor, and grace. 🙌💪👏✊👇

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time.

The ACA also prevented insurance companies from denying people with pre-existing conditions coverage, allowed young people under the age of 26 to remain on their parents’ plan, expanded Medicaid, and so much more.

But the ACA was always meant to be a first step. We still have to do more to expand access and make health care more affordable for everyone.

@stephentpaul @EdKrassen Because I.C.E. is a rogue operation whose enforcement operations trample on our constitution and bill of rights. It needs to be shutdown or completely reformed.

Dolores Huerta, the labor activist who co-founded the United Farm Workers with Cesar Chavez, sits down with ABC News' John Quiñones, speaking about the sexual assault allegations against Chavez.

Well, what do you know?
*76%* of Texas school voucher applications come from families whose children are not enrolled in public schools. Less than 1% of public and charter school families have applied for vouchers.

It's straight up welfare for the wealthy #txlege

If the primary American divide is between right and left, then Talarico isn’t that interesting. There’s a long history of progressive religious activism in the United States, just as there is a long history of conservative religious activism.

Yet if the primary American divide is between decent and indecent, then the equation changes. Talarico shines. https://t.co/xluTH0W0vv

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨OMG: This former ICE Agent testified that ICE training is “deficient, defective, and broken” and he ADMITTED ICE gives “secretive orders to teach agents to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a judicial warrant.” This is horrifying.

How does FOX spin the tarriff's? I can't bear to watch them, even in meltdown. Thankfully, you can get the relevant snippets here.

[Decoding Fox News @DecodingFoxNews]

A thread 🧵on how Fox News tried to hide their panic over the SCOTUS ruling against Trump's tariff policies. The Will Cain Show - The Justices at SOTU, Scott Bessent: embargoes! Why did Trump do this right to begin with? Tariffs are taxes! Now we are going to war! 1/6

An attack on ALL our first amendment rights.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Talarico: It should be troubling to all of us, regardless of our political affiliations or our political beliefs, that the most powerful people in the country, the most powerful politicians and the most powerful corporate executives are working together to sell out the first amendment, to sell out our freedom of speech in order to protect their own power and their own wealth. And that should be concerning to all of us, whether you're a Democrat or a Republican, whether you're a Progressive or Conservative, because an attack on any one of our first amendment rights is an attack on all of our first amendment rights.

Tow Truck Heroes!

[Suzie rizzio @Suzierizzo1]

This is what Heroes look like! This is Leo’s Tow truck service in Minnesota and Juan Leon noticed how many cars were abandoned on the roads & in parking lots by ICE with some still running & most with smashed out windows so they decided to tow them for free & find the families.

[Cate Poe @catehatesgoogle]

We have to stop them!

Texas is currently experiencing their most corrupt state government in history. Two donors are trying to take over everything.
