Mamdani: The powerful have always known their answer. America, in their view, is an arena of supremacy, where only a select few are allowed freedom, where not all are created equal. America, if you ask them, becomes less the more people it welcomes. America, they will tell you, belongs only to those with the right accent or the right shade of skin. The rest of us, they insist, should be grateful for merely being allowed to visit.

How small they are, how weak, how unoriginal. 

At every moment in our past, those who led through exclusion and isolation have tried to win power and enrich themselves by turning us against one another. Division is the oldest trick in politics, and the cheapest. But time and again-including 250 years ago-those forces of division have been vanquished by the forces of progress.

And yet today, too many of our leaders do not believe in a vision of this nation as an asylum for the persecuted-but rather as one that persecutes those seeking asylum.

As we mark 250 years, what do we see? 

We see a city of contradictions within a nation of contradictions. We see the wealthiest country in the history of the world— one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's first trillionaire hungers for more. We see monopolies that dominate every industry and oligarchs who buy elections. We see masked agents terrorizing our streets, eating food cooked by our undocumented neighbors before spiriting them away in unmarked vans. We see a nation whose immense wealth has been built by those with calloused, dirt-streaked hands —those who toil on factory floors and chisel into stone —and we see a nation that has allowed so much of that wealth to be held instead in the soft hands of a precious few.

On July 3rd, I celebrate the day the U.S. Army (with 35,000 Pennsylvanians in its ranks) drove the traitor forces from the fields of Gettysburg, turned the tide of the war to end slavery, and saved the Union.

Never forget: Lee was an oath breaking traitor, the head of a military force fighting for a slaver oligarchy to overthrow the American government. And he was a loser.

I think the Democrats aren't going to take the Senate but Democratic Primary voters outside incredibly blue coastal cities are based beyond belief. Thank God for flyover normies because if you look at this map there should be absolutely zero chance the Dems take the Senate and the only reason it's possible is candidate selection

Alaska: Probably the single greatest wins above replacement candidate the Democrats have. Peltola single-handedly made the race a toss-up. Peltola ran 8 points ahead of Harris in 2024 and won an R+6 state by 9 in 2022.

Georgia: Jon Ossoff looks like he's going to win a blowout in a state Trump won by 2

North Carolina: Roy Cooper has an average lead of 11 in polls taken since the beginning of May in a state where the Democrats have only won the presidential vote once since 1980

Ohio: They ran basically the only guy who can still flip Ohio blue this year and Ohio Democrats have run great candidates nonstop but the state's just been too blue for them to win. They also ran an incredible candidate in 2022 and Tim Ryan performed the best of every statewide Ohio Dem that year. He only lost to Vance by 6 while all the other Democrats lost by 15-20

Texas: Talarico's not a very good candidate because he's got too much liberal baggage but was better than Crockett, at least. Even here the Dems had better candidate selection than the Republicans though because Paxton is atrocious and the only reason it's still so close

Maine: The only actual leans-blue state the Dems are targeting is Maine and that's the state where they're running by far their worst candidate. Platner's basically running even with Peltola (and I think he'll wind up running well behind her in the end and lose badly) and Peltola's in an R+6 state while Maine is like D+7

If swing state and red state Democrats radicalized as much as Dems in the bluest parts of the country, the Republicans would have like 60 seats every election cycle. The only reason they can even keep it close with the current map is because Republicans radicalized everywhere while swing state Democrats are still such normies they run people who achieve blowout Senate victories in states they have no business even winning

The responses to this perfectly show the dichotomy I was talking about yesterday. The chuds hate the gaming companies but also refuse to engage with the political ramifications of these unaccountable entities that are borderline monopolies

Chris Cuomo (of all people) just effortlessly unmasked Tucker Carlson as a Russian propagandist.

Cuomo: “I'm a journalist. I'm not allowed into Russia. Why are you allowed in?”

Just watch how Tucker squirms.

Everyone secretly agrees with me. Anyone who claims otherwise is lying. I have excellent theory of mind.

Usha is no lib but she is smart and any smart person who would ask Donald Trump on camera what he reads is a person who does not like Donald Trump

I have never once seen wanye defend a position at full. He exclusively responds to criticism and counterargument by crying that you won't pretend he said something smarter than he actually did. I am convinced he is secretly 7 years old at this point.
