LOOK AT THE FLUFFY LEGS!!! 🥹

[Acyn @Acyn]

Mamdani: We’re doing a citywide campaign to highlight protections that we have for trans New Yorkers across the five boroughs, because there are far too many trans New Yorkers who have been made to feel that they don't enjoy the full protections of the law in this city,. We want to make clear that's not the case under our administration

This is a good moment for very boring, traditional capital gains hikes
- return the estate tax to 2000 levels
- end step-up basis and treat death as a realization event
- treat carried interest as earned income
- raise the top rate from 23.8% to 30%

Just a massive change in NYC's power grid this week. Getting almost no attention.

A 350-mile transmission line bringing hydro-electric power from Canada to NYC is now live.

Will provide enough electricity to power 1 million homes, bringing us to 40% renewable energy sources for the five boroughs. At last making up for the loss of Indian Point nuclear power plant, which used to provide 20% of our power.

The Champlain Hudson Power Express took more than 12 years to build. It was a tough political fight. Now we need to win many more fights like this.

Here's a story national political media has missed: three Native women could make history this November.

Deb Haaland, candidate for NM Governor, could become the first Native woman elected governor in US history.

Peggy Flanagan (MN) and Mary Peltola (Alaska) could become the first two Native women senators.

[Mary Peltola @MaryPeltola]

I was the first person born in Alaska to represent Alaska in the U.S. House of Representatives!

Finished another banger. Would recommend.

[Adam @abetrade]

pretty crazy how five years ago vaccines were the most devastating thing you could ever do to your body but nowadays its fine to inject chinese peptide from Temu because you cant stop snacking after dinner

[Jeremiah Baumann @jdbau]

This is similar to my theories about the virtues of a child monarch

[Marco Foster @MarcoFoster_]

Fran Lebowitz on Trump: “This person who is a pipsqueak of a person. He’s not a person. He’s not even a squirrel. And yet he affects the whole world. A squirrel would be a much better president. If he ran against a squirrel, I would vote for the squirrel”

[Alex Jacquez @AlexSJacquez]

Gee I wonder why

[Jeremiah Baumann @jdbau]

@JoshMalina This is a really good joke!

[Jeremiah Baumann @jdbau]

Yes true and but also SISTER ACT is not just any old dumb comedy movie

[Theodore Beers @theodorebeers]

How much stronger was our culture in the '90s? A dumb comedy movie would casually drop the best-ever harmonization (for real) of a classic Marian hymn. Arrangement by a gay Jewish guy, God bless him.

In Oregon, Democrats have a shot at supermajorities in both legislative chambers. They've got the Senate. In the House, it comes down to one seat—and they're still curing ballots.

Democrat Lesly Muñoz has a tiny lead over Rep. Tracy Cramer. On Nov 15, just 34 votes. Now ~123.

[Armand Domalewski @ArmandDoma]

Since the election, the percentage of Republicans who say that they're financially worse off than they were a year ago is down by 15 points lmao

[Jeremiah Baumann @jdbau]

@DavidPomerantz @dieworkwear So would Derek Guy asking me on a date

[Jeremiah Baumann @jdbau]

Regardless of its historical context it also looks like shit

[derek guy @dieworkwear]

yes, make america NORMAL. do not trim grey flannel BUSINESS suits with yellow PIPING because that's historically a SPORTING DETAIL

[David Weigel @daveweigel]

I'm sorry, the old Nancy can't come to the phone right now.

[Jeremiah Baumann @jdbau]

@DavidPomerantz Indeed, Vinny does not look like shit and I think @dieworkwear might agree this is more coherent and a better look

[Ari Drennen @AriDrennen]

Come the fuck on

[Maurice Moe Mitchell 🐺 @MauriceWFP]

Some pundits would rather revive old grievances than do any self-reflection.

After VP Harris’s loss, we should be talking about how we bring people *into* our coalition, not who we kick to the curb.
