If Mamdani is looking for a "sistah soujah" moment, here it is.

In my current ill-temper, I am blocking people whose posts reveal an ignorance about politics profound enough to make me break out in hives. Such ignorance is not necessarily linked to ideology.

Deciding not to run for re-election has quite an impact on the ability to speak clearly and without fer of retribution.

Didn't Bob Vylan perform "Vesolation Row"?

What drives this budget bill to passage is that Trump wants the theater of a victory. He does not care what's in the bill. Few GOPers will stand up to his rage, and will give him...something. (Caveat: if 2 more Senators follow Tillis and abandon re-election, they could sink it.

Add in the NYC blackout that--unlike the one in 1965--unleashed waves of looting, offering powerful support to the idea that the city was in its death throes.

Me in-depth pro take on why the Mets are floundering: hitters aren't hitting, pitchers aren't pitching, fielders aren't fielding. (For $750, get exclusive access to my Pro Take+, with regular insights like these).

If past is prologue, the GOP "no"votes will shrink just enough to get the bill passed. As for the "no" votes that will be cast --if the leadership absolutely needed them, they'd flip. This has happened with every tough confirmation battle, and every major vote so far.

The audience is so ingegrated that they're clapping on the wrong beat...

Every criminal defense attorney on these CNN round-tables goes to the same tailor...perhaps their pinstriped suits reflect the wardrobe of their client-inmates.

The idea of a new party always polls well; the transition from that idea to a functioning party that can win public office is difficult, to put it mildly.

I find it highly probable that Trump has no idea that “Shylock” is a term drawn from a character in a Shakespeare play, since that would require a certain level of literacy.

Pam Biondi, Kash Patel, and Don Bongino are being excoriated by MAGA for saying there are no Epstein files and he killed himmself--after spending months feeding exactly those suspicions. Karma=bitch.

The most detailed look at the '92 vote--state by state--concluded that Perot did not cost GHWBush the election; other surveys shows Perot voters would have split down the middle (Note-Perot voters in '96 were far less disposed toward Clinton, but their numbers were way smaller).

The MAGA outrage over "no Epstein list" raises two curious questions: 1) if they believe this "list" exists, would they be willing to let every name be reveled--even if one of them is a certain ex-real estate magnate-man-about town? 2) Or do they think Bondi & Co played them?
