Watch how quickly Fox's Trace Gallagher ends this interview with a DSA candidate once he starts bringing up Trump/Epstein (after Gallagher spent minutes browbeating him over immigration and ICE). And Fox can't use the ad break excuse either, because Gallagher immediately turned to another guest.

i’ll be participating in this. the us has strangled cuba since its succesful revolution for the crime of sovereignty & dignity for its people! this latest example of the heightened blockade seeks to bring gazan siege warfare & starvation closer to home. we mustn’t look away.

I get talks about why Goldman, but I cannot understand this hallucination that Brad Lander would somehow be slighted if he ended up a congressman rather than deputy mayor of sanitation or some equally lateral move in city government.

Ezra is right. In 2010, 1/4 of the House Dem caucus was pro-life. Without those votes Dems cannot build a strong majority.

Hannah Arendt said 'The death of human empathy is one of the earliest & most telling signs of a culture about to fall into barbarism' We saw the recent cruelty of MAGA denying empathy to Melissa Hortman Empathy for Kirk—not because he ever acted like a decent human—but because we are decent humans

Exceptionally hopeful hearing Mamdani / DSA policies debated on @the1a.org on NPR. For the first time in years I feel like my politics and beliefs are actually part of the conversation. Overton window shifted ✅

Not understanding the popularity of “death of america” as a popular slogan in iran means your not at all reflective. Death to America” doesnt mean “death to all Americans”, but I guess the folks saying “fuck hamas” celebrate when soldiers rape prisoners so i guess they take things very literal

Trump is sending ICE to blue cities to enact the "largest mass deportation program in history" and Chicago is at the top of the list. I'm calling for every Democratic leader and candidate to stand against ICE, to call for its abolition, and to materially support immigrants. Inaction is complicity.
