I cannot believe yall are trying to frame this NYC snow shoveling as a voting issue. When the web page clearly shows it’s a paid position, hence, a form of employment. And if you want to be paid by the city you are going to have to show ID like any other job.

Elmo is sad to see the #WinterOlympics end, but do you know what that means? The #WinterParalympics are almost here! ELMO IS SO EXCITED! 🥇

Thanks to Trump, right-wing multibillionaire Larry Ellison will now control the TikTok algorithm, along with:

CBS
MTV
The Free Press
BET
CMT
Simon & Schuster
Nickelodeon
Paramount+
Pluto TV
and more

This is what Oligarchy looks like.

Much love to Alex Pretti and Renee Good—but remember—ICE has killed 9 people in 2026. You know the names of the 2 white people they've killed.

ICE has also killed a Black man named Keith Porter, a Cambodian named Parady La, and five Latinos named Heber Sanchaz Domínguez, Victor Manuel Diaz, Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz, Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres, and Geraldo Lunas Campos.

ICE is on pace to kill more than 100 people this year. Abolish ICE. Impeach Noem. Prosecute those who committed these crimes.

@AnnCampbel57325 @JohnSwinney @ZohranKMamdani This is where I want my tax dollars going as a New Yorker with an adult child. This benefits us all.

[John Swinney @JohnSwinney]

Glad to hear you’re considering a baby box scheme in New York, @ZohranKMamdani.

The Scottish Government sent over a Baby Box to share our experience and hopefully offer some inspiration.

Since we launched it in 2017, I’m proud it’s giving every child the best start in life. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

We take extreme weather seriously because keeping New Yorkers safe and informed is the job.

With storms expected this weekend, I’m urging everyone across the city to sign up for NotifyNYC for real-time alerts and updates.

Follow @NotifyNYC or text NOTIFYNYC to 692-692 to stay informed and prepared.

Elong Muᛋᛋk tried his hardest to silence all posts about the general strike. Hundreds of these posts been throttled. They’re scared to death of this. Tweet your own posts please about this. Share tweets about this. Don’t let them silence this huge event. Something is happening.

This is the third time I've retweeted this, @elonmusk

Your algorithm keeps un-retweeting it.

We notice these things.

Reminder:

The majority of the country has no idea how much snow or bad weather they will actually receive this weekend because Trump slashed out weather forecasting budget and 40% of the nations weather balloons are completely out of commission.

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

NYC is forecasted to get 3–16 inches of snow this weekend. And we’re ready.

We’ll issue a Code Blue later today, and outreach workers will ramp up efforts to connect unhoused New Yorkers to safe shelter.

Tomorrow, we'll begin pre-snow treatment, brining highways and major streets. Once the storm hits, @NYCSanitation and city workers will be out around the clock, keeping our city moving.

[Jessica Burbank @JessicaLBurbank]

Mamdani has:

-Launched no-cost childcare
-Opened health clinics for New Yorkers 16-25, mental healthcare included
-Started rental ripoff hearings to expose landlords’ abuses
-Banned junk fees & subscription traps

But Fox wants you to focus on how he & his wife wash their asses.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

Leftists are showing up to anti-ICE protests with firearms.

And suddenly the far right is like: “Wait… guns are dangerous??”

Watching the 2A crowd realize the Second Amendment applies to everybody is hilarious.

[Morgan Cameron Ross @Morgan_C_Ross]

-74% of all insulin used in America comes from Denmark.
-100% of all Ozempic used in America comes from Denmark
-15% of all shipping containers arriving in America come from a Danish company

All 3 are being discussed within Denmark to halt.

A cartoon about my father from the 1960s. At the time he was assassinated, a poll reflected that he was one of the most hated men in the United States.

Today, his message has been distorted by many who would have hated him then, but evoke him now to deter justice and truth.

“Pedophile protector” isn’t an expletive comment. But a president yelling “fuck you” to a constituent is. It’s also quite pathetic behavior from a supposed commander-in-chief.

And if Trump really wants to prove the worker wrong, all he has to do is release all the Epstein files. Why won’t he release the files? Who is he protecting?

PLEASE STAY ON THIS STORY. That's why they are wearing masks. We already found one of them, a Proud Boy

[Acyn @Acyn]

Raskin: One of my constituents was detained for five days. We didn’t get her released until Christmas. A US citizen. We asked how many US citizens are being detained by ICE….the response was: we do not detain US citizens.

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

Let’s tell the truth. - President Trump’s claim that the 1964 Civil Rights Act caused harm to white people is a false narrative that distorts history and obscures reality.

My father, Fannie Lou Hamer, John Lewis, Amelia Boynton and many others did not work for racial and economic justice to divide this nation. They put themselves in harm’s way and suffered state sanctioned violence because America systemically and abhorrently denied freedom, dignity, opportunity, and protection to millions of Black people.

Nonviolence requires truth telling and courageous action. Creating the Beloved Community requires rejecting fear based myths, defending civil rights, educating ourselves and others about what really happened, and organizing across differences to eradicate injustice and expand dignity for everyone.

Creating the Beloved Community also requires understanding that honorable equity does not equal oppression for a group accustomed to prospering at the expense of other groups.
