We live in a country where the two most dynamic, charismatic, eloquent politicians of this century have the first names Barack and Zohran. This is what bothers the white supremacists so much.
Child: I know your name. Mamdani. Obama: What’s his first name? Child: Mayor.

Tonight's a good night for every new org to confirm that the DOJ covered up accusations of child rape against the man currently speaking.
Dozens of FBI witness interviews from the investigation of Jeffrey Epstein appear to be missing from the files released by the Department of Justice last month, according to a CNN review – including interviews related to a woman who accused President Trump of sexually assaulting her decades ago.
the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex
Lots of correspondence between Robert Trivers and Jeffrey Epstein mentioning money and a predatory view of women 🤮https://www.justice.gov/epstein

I'm calling bullshit on the media narrative that Trump is "pivoting" and "deescalating" on his ICE raids. The threshold is this: As long as the military occupations and the treatment of US cities as enemy territory continue, there's no pivot. ICE out. 1/ (New piece) newrepublic.com/article/2057...
Donald Trump Is Frightened
Trump wants to appear eager to minimize out-of-control clashes between government militias and protesters. But he doesn’t want to stop the things causing those clashes in the first place.

Not to be too hyperbolic but I feel like price discrimination at this granular a level, if done at scale, kinda takes a sledgehammer to some of the fundamentals of microeconomics. www.marketplace.org/story/2026/0...

I love this concept, New York City as a “great processing station of Americanization.” I’m proud and lucky that my Jewish ancestors went through that processing station 100 years ago.
3/ in a way it may be best to see New York City as a great processing station of Americanization, it's a remarkable degree of continuity over more than 250 years and to a degree approaching 400 yrs. It's notable that the New Yorker most identified with the founding generation was in fact ...
