Perfect encapsulation of the Democratic Party's pitch over the last 40 years: 'Better things aren't possible. If you think they are, you're stupid.'
Bari Weiss asks Andrew Cuomo how does he expect to compete with @ZohranKMamdani's platform including $30 min. wage, free bus, gov. grocery stores, etc.
"How do you educate people that, that's not possible?"
"You have to hope they have a brain in their head"

I have huge respect for Bernie, but if one of the few members of Congress not funded by the Israel lobby *still* can’t say the word “genocide,” or condemn the slaughter in Gaza without throat-clearing about Israel’s right to defend itself, what hope do we have of stopping this?

Dear Democrats,
Do not move to the center!

Loren Taylor going to a high profile LGBQT mayoral forum and throwing an ally under the bus and then getting on twitter to attack and smear me because I quoted him verbatim has to be one of the strangest self-owns I've seen.

For those of y’all who weren’t outside, the media tore Serena to shreds for crip walking at Wimbledon. Her coming back to do a dance that references a culture she’s actually a part of, during a live performance criticizing someone for being a culture vulture is *chef’s kiss.*

KENDRICK LAMAR. I mean, YO…. Some will have to watch that halftime performance multiple times to understand what he just did on the #SuperBowl stage. Messaging and storytelling in every form, and a direct response to where America is right now.

hey Matt, I hear you like 'em young
The halftime show you just watched is clearly the regime’s response to Trump’s historic gains with black men.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Kendrick Lamar was announced as the halftime show several months before Trump won

I did a deep dive into Kash Patel back when I was at MSNBC, in case you’re interested. He’s a deeply strange and alarming and sycophantic figure (do you all know about the children’s book?)

Lmfao I’m sorry did you forget Lee was pilloried for voting against the invasion of Iraq????
Running for mayor would subject Barbara Lee to something she never really encountered in her career: harsh opposition and personal attacks.

Stavros puts on a master class in talking to otherwise conservative people about class politics accessibly, on a massive right leaning podcast (5 million monthly listeners). This is the reverse insidious platforming we need (link to full video below)
