Congratulations to Mayor Mamdani. He inherited a huge budget deficit, brought it down to zero, and still invested in childcare, housing and city infrastructure.
When municipal governments stand with working families, not billionaires, there is nothing they cannot accomplish.
New Yorkers, join us in the first ever Mayor’s Municipal Madness: a competition of city fixes where everyone wins.
City workers fix thousands of tiny annoyances every year, from broken basketball rims to bike path bumps. This year, we’re highlighting 16 of those fixes.
From the exacerbating eight to the frustrating four, every item in each round will be repaired…but you’ll be voting on which fix will be done by me on day 100 of our admin.
Round one of voting starts right now: https://t.co/8iGV460exI
Military experts say it will be difficult for the United States to retrieve Iran's nuclear materials. A senile rapist who shits himself in public says it will be easy. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.
Introducing Adaptive Computer.
We put AI inside of an always-on personal computer that it uses to get work done.
Schedule agents. Create software. Automate anything.
As part of the launch, we’re giving one free month of Adaptive to users.
Retweet, like, and comment ‘Adaptive’ to get it.
the current position of the US government is that NVIDIA should be allowed to sell chips directly to China but banned from using Claude, because the latter is a larger national security risk. that is the level of absolute insanity coming out of the White House & Pentagon nowadays
Think about the power Hegseth is asserting here. He is claiming that the DoD can force all contractors to stop doing business of any kind with arbitrary other companies.
In other words, every operating system vendor, every manufacturer of hardware, every hyperscaler, every type of firm the DoD contracts with—all their services and products can be denied to any economic actor at will by the Secretary of War.
This is obviously a psychotic power grab. It is almost surely illegal, but the message it sends is that the United States Government is a completely unreliable partner for any kind of business. The damage done to our business environment is profound. No amount of deregulatory vibes sent by this administration matters compared to this arson.
Tim Dillon just blasted the Epstein cover-up as “the worst lies ever.”
“The current White House position is: you wanted to know, now you know.”
“Yeah, they’re all fucking kids and killing them.”
“You feel better now?”
“There’s no investigations.”
“There’s no accountability.”
“Do you realize how much better the Iraq War was in terms of lies?”
“And those lies were bad.”
“There’s zero effort going into the lies.”
“Les Wexner’s out here going: I got conned by my best friend, the guy I worked with for decades, I had no idea what he was up to.”
“The Trump administration’s going: everyone is innocent in the thing that never happened, that there’s millions of incredibly disturbing and heinous files on.”
“Also, there’s files we won’t release, and we won’t do any investigations into any of these allegations.”

If folks want to REALLY have fun, as a citizen, FOIA all records from DHS subagencies citing to you as an individual. They’ll unlawfully delay the processing, so you can sue and collect attorneys fees. If they want to keep records of citizens, citizens should have a right to know what records they have. #FunWithFOIA
🧵 The cost of everything technology touches is falling toward zero. Yet, we're told prices should rise. Why? Let's dig into the disconnect between tech-driven deflation and our inflationary monetary system. 👇
37 yr old ICU nurse Alex Pretti murdered by ICE in broad daylight with zero justification for deadly force. I mean ZERO. This feels like a watershed moment in American history that should enact change, but won't.
Very reminiscent of Sandy Hook when we all said "if that didn't get us to change, we never well!" Feels like another one of those. Because if you cannot admit this was wrong you're either an idiot or a liar, and I think you're a bad person and an unAmerican asshole. The hypocrisy from the same people who have been proudly screaming about the Ist and 2nd amendment for hundreds of years now trying to say protesting and carrying a legal firearm is reason enough to be murdered...what a joke. And the response from our leaders from Donald Trump to Tim Walz is all dangerous and pathetic. Were just a 3rd world country now where masked morons with no training and a gun can kill you for no reason other than "well we won't get in trouble for it tor" Out of all the dumb entities to blindly follow be of your political affiliation, supporting ICE is by far the most pathetic. ICE agents and their supporters the biggest trash in America maybe ever
Having seen this from multiple angles, it appears like an execution.
The individual was brought to his knees for filming these masked men, and then was shot repeatedly, first in the back by one person, and then again by another once he's already lying flat on his back.
Even if he were interfering with whatever they were doing by blocking traffic, this does not qualify as justifiable homicide and officers of the law are not entitled to the kind of leeway required to exonerate these people for what they've done here.
I can't believe what we've been seeing out of Minnesota. Enforcing immigration laws does not require creating new precedents for the use of deadly force on the streets of American cities.
“Let’s just say the quiet part out loud:
America didn’t get hijacked by ‘patriots.’ It got hijacked by failures — and by the very smart, very cynical people who realized how easy those failures are to manipulate.
For decades, the United States has produced a whole population of folks who never did the reading, never did the learning, never gained any skills, never grew emotionally, never took accountability for a single thing in their lives — and then reached adulthood furious that the world wasn’t built around their bad decisions. They flunked out of life, coasted on the easiest path possible, and then expected the entire country to bend so they never have to feel uncomfortable or inadequate.
Enter the political strategists who said, ‘Oh wow…this country has a gigantic pool of angry, insecure underachievers who will believe absolutely anything that absolves them of responsibility. If we just tell them they’re right and everyone else is wrong, they’ll worship us.’
And that’s exactly what happened.
A movement didn’t rise because these people were strong. It rose because someone finally figured out how to weaponize their weakness.
Tell the failures they’re actually the real Americans.
Tell the losers that the smart people secretly envy them.
Tell the ones who never succeeded that their lack of success is someone else’s fault.
Tell the folks who never grew up that maturity is ‘woke.’
And suddenly you’ve built an army — not of thinkers, not of leaders, not of contributors — but of emotionally fragile adults addicted to being lied to because the truth hurts too much.
Meanwhile, the people at the top of this movement?
They don’t respect them.
They don’t admire them.
They don’t even like them.
They use them.
Because they know these people don’t want solutions — they want soothing.
They don’t want progress — they want validation.
They don’t want responsibility — they want stories that make them feel better about failing at life.
So the grifters show up and say, ‘Hey buddy, none of this is your fault. You’re perfect. It’s the immigrants, the books, the teachers, the scientists, the cities, the gays, the trans people — anyone but you.’
And the failures eat it up like dessert.
Because it feels good.
Because it’s easier.
Because they finally found a political movement where doing the least, learning nothing, and hating everyone is not only accepted — it’s celebrated.
This movement isn’t powered by greatness. It’s powered by fragility, by resentment, by the bottom of the class finally hearing a bedtime story where they’re the heroes instead of the ones who fell behind.
And the people in charge? They laugh behind closed doors. They know exactly who they’re dealing with.
They know if you give failures an enemy to hate and a fantasy to believe in, they’ll hand you the keys to the country — and thank you for the privilege.
America doesn’t have a ‘patriot problem.’
America has a failure problem — and a ruling class that learned how to turn those failures into a political ATM.
It’d be tragic if it weren’t so predictable.”

My great-grandparents migrated to the US from Sweden. They went directly to Minnesota where the Swedish immigrant community was. They still spoke Swedish. Still did Swedish customs. Ate Swedish food. Were Americans freaked out they didn’t “Americanize”?
Fox legal analyst responds to Trump’s unhinged and psychotic posts calling for Democratic senators and representatives to be executed for posting a video urging service members to obey their oath to the Constitution and follow the law in the UCMJ.
I hate to be the buzzkill here, but there is a single word in this legislation that basically renders it impotent: “AG shall make publicly available…all unclassified records”.
Keyword: “UNCLASSIFIED”
Can anybody say redacted for “national security interests”?! 😏😒
The Clayton appointment is so unreal.
Geoffrey Berman was pressured to step down by the first Trump admin roughly a year after prosecuting Epstein in 2019 (as I recall it was around the time when Berman was targeting Steve Bannon). Bill Barr tried to have Clayton replace him in 2020, but was unsuccessful.
Clayton spent the time waiting to be ushered into that position by Trump earlier this year at Epstein associate Leon Black's Apollo Global in a board position they seemingly made JUST FOR HIM.
In other words, Clayton is the guy the 1st Trump administration and Bill Barr specifically wanted in to replace the people who had Epstein (and later Maxwell) arrested and when they couldn't do it, a super rich Epstein associate gave him tons of money and now he has been installed in that position to "investigate" Epstein.
How stupid do they think people are?
Devastating— “I’m afraid for my parents to leave the house. They treat us like dogs because of the color of our skin. I shouldn’t be scared, I should be focusing on school.”
