Good morning! My follower count on Bluesky has now surpassed my count on Twitter so I’ll be spending more time there. Also it’s a better environment. And given what @atRachelGilmore just went through it’s also a safer place. Some of us can’t play, we need to protect ourselves

Didn’t write about the budget per se but wrote on a these around it “Unless my methods of deduction fail me, it looks like we’re heading into a period of austerity. It will be painful.” https://t.co/9ZNawJsPvJ

It is quite evident that we are barrelling towards economic gloom, and creating a society of haves and have nots.

I take personal credit for David being able to flame someone this well. It is only through years of relentless sibling roasts that he got to this level.
Going on CNN to lecture people about affordability while wearing a Rolex is a choice.

We’re hope scrolling tonight
Not to lib out or cave to representational politics, but it is astounding to me, having lived in this country through the height of the war on terror, that New York City has elected a Muslim as its next mayor. Tonight I’ll suspend pessimism and believe that hope may be real.

If Zohran Mamdani wins, his success should be a lesson for all progressives and all Democrats across America. Some thoughts... https://t.co/SF8M019RMt

Wow. JD Vance’s younger brother is losing in an absolute landslide in the Cincinnati mayor election after JD endorsed him.

I never thought of this win like this but yes I hope this is a consequence of his victory
Someone should write about the masculinity that Zohran Mamdani embodies. A normal chill dude with a strong sense of self and unafraid to love everyone.

Supposedly an unprecedented 2.2 million turnout with 60% above 45 years old. I am going to be an optimist and say @andrewcuomo is going to get the win. If he fails to win, it’s because @CurtisSliwa cares more about himself than NYC. Let’s never forget that. If Andrew wins, he

“Quietly”
The Groyper movement has quietly infiltrated the Republican Party and Republican adjacent networks. This is no joke. Young Republican groups, TPUSA, think tanks, staff on the hill...these ideas, sentiments, and prejudices are literally everywhere now. This is what happens when

EXCLUSIVE: We can reveal the police assessment behind the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans found hundreds of them in Amsterdam were "linked to the IDF". Dutch police said they were "experienced fighters", "highly organised" and "intent on causing serious violence". Full story below

Politicians here should learn too
Zohran Mamdani had a clear and simple message: NYC is too expensive. For many young voters, that was enough. Win or lose, other politicians should learn from that.

Spanberger gained ground with young men, but there’s still a 22-point gap between men and women under 30 who supported her, according to NBC’s exit polls.

Dems do seem to be doing better with young men. But the gender gap is still pronounced. 64% for Mamdani in NYC 56% for Spanberger in VA 54% for Sherrill in NJ per NBC's exit polls.
