@Magoo6702134929 @DarthBen5 @Ryan_Parkerrr “Official, formal military aparatus.”

Is DHS part of the military?

[Connor @connormw]

@iamcs2kitchen @aquaismissing If you’re queuing Premier and cannot play all the maps in the pool then what is the point? Are people just leaving matches or griefing because their computer can’t play a game that works on 10 year old hardware?

This is such a stretch and cope it’s ridiculous.

@logicensues @JoshEakle That’s a lot of words for being a snowflake.

I appreciate the recognition of the problem here, but his “discovery” of the persistence of racism only occurred because of his unique situation. Without that, he’d still be living in his old fantasy world.

This is how you get a 65%/35% blowout for @PatRyanUC in November.

GOP not even trying to compete in this environment. Works for me!

[Timmy Facciola @TimmyFacciola_]

NEW: Republicans are running Jackie Mary Auringer in NY-18, per an FEC filing.

Sharanjit Thind met the signature threshold ahead of the deadline, but then filed a declination to cede the ballot to local party leaders.

They’re all in on Auringer:

Calls him a moron but then accuses him of a calculated, grand conspiracy to destroy the city.

[Tomi Lahren @TomiLahren]

Do you all really think Zoron the Moron is destroying New York by accident? Do you really think this isn’t by design? Come on now.

@DaStraatosphere @WhiteBabyFac And then they’ll request property tax exemptions.

If Peter Doocy ends up being the reporter that gets the whole extraterrestrial visitor reveal, we are truly in the bizarrest of timelines.

[CSPAN @cspan]

.@pdoocy: "Obama said that aliens are real. Have you seen any evidence of non-human visitors to Earth?"

President Trump: "He gave classified information. He's not supposed to be doing that."

“$100 bucks a month for a household - have you even said ‘thank you?’”

[Vice President JD Vance @VP]

VP Vance on the Trump Administration's progress towards restoring affordability to the American people:

“The average American household has gained about $1,200 during the Trump administration...Rents have now declined five months in a row...We just have to keep working at it.”

“Why won’t the occupied warmly welcome the occupiers?”

When I was in Minneapolis, I heard a number of crazy stories. But near the top of the list:

A couple of off duty ICE and CBP officers were going to dinner in Minneapolis. They were doxed and their location revealed, and the restaurant was then mobbed. The officers were locked in the restaurant, and local police refused to respond to their pleas for help (as they've been directed by local authorities). Eventually, their fellow federal agents came to their aid.

This is just a taste of what's happening in Minneapolis because state and local officials refuse to cooperate with immigration enforcement. They have created the chaos so they can have moments like yesterday, where someone tragically dies and politicians get to grandstand about the evils of enforcing the border.

The solution is staring everyone in the face. I hope authorities in Minneapolis stop this madness.

[Connor @connormw]

@Mighty__Muffins Each NWS update today has upped the numbers. Reminds me of December 2020 in confidence growth.

[Connor @connormw]

Bragging about the relationship with ICE in January 2026 is an interesting choice.

More ammo for the “not a serious campaign” crowd.

[Spectrum News NY1 @NY1]

Nassau County Executive and Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman said Nassau boasts the “most comprehensive agreement with ICE in the United States,” which he says is to make the county safer.

@DougHeye The idea that Trump would ever forgive the impeachment conviction vote was wild.

[Connor @connormw]

@ZephyrTeachout Increases in domestic nuclear power operations must be coupled with loosened fed regulations on waste reprocessing. There is a reason Europe does this so well - they recycle the vast majority of their spent fuel for future use. We cannot do that now, which is why waste piles up.

@sensiblemoderat @XiZynPingers @KittensNeeds @Michael_Druggan “Owner occupied” doesn’t automatically dismiss children living with parents.

[Connor @connormw]

What is the point of this campaign anymore?

Hochul has solidified her left flank (in big part to well-timed Mamdani endorsement), kept a publicly aggressive but privately balanced relationship with the WH, & kept the coming Dem momentum stable, pushing Stefanik out.

It’s over.

[Lt. Governor Antonio Delgado @DelgadoforNY]

The only thing Hochul seems willing to be “bold” about is nuclear, which is a waste of money and time. Nor does it meet the urgency of the climate crisis.
