Trump was watching tonight, so I got to tell him to his face: You were wrong on the Iran war. Wrong on tax cuts for billionaires. Wrong on Medicaid cuts. Wrong on data centers. And the American people said tonight: No more! Don’t blame me or even Fox News… BLAME YOURSELF, DONALD
🚨 NOW: President Trump say FOX NEWS bears some of the responsibility for Democrats winning big tonight "Why does FoxNews have Bill de Blasio, the Worst Mayor in the History of New York City, on air, ranting and raving like a Lunatic? He left the City in disgrace, and the damage he caused was incalculable — It has never been the same, and now he’s telling us how to run America. FoxNews bears responsibility for these losses by constantly and consistently putting on the Dumocrat opposition, and worse. GOD BLESS AMERICA! President DONALD J. TRUMP" 47 has also said Fox should GET RID of Jessica Tarlov

A CIVIL WAR WITHIN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY… Is exactly what’s NOT going to happen! Read about the model for Democratic unity and progressive policy-making that New York is now giving our party.

A war criminal has no right to lecture anyone about “safety.” Tens of thousands of Palestinians AND Israelis have died because of Netanyahu’s callousness and negligence.
Netanyahu: The anti-semitic mayor of New York—shame on you. Mr. Mamdani, since you were elected mayor of this city, many Jews no longer feel safe in New York. They talk to me. They tell me.

If we ever needed more evidence that the Times props up the elite and the status quo, here it is. Seriously? A Native American woman might join the Senate and help stop authoritarianism, and they focus instead on her bad temper toward her aides? This is bullshit on so many levels
SCOOP: Inside the tumult of Mary Peltola's Senate campaign in Alaska and her time on Capitol Hill. Peltola is known publicly as kind and affable. But aides recall angry outbursts, slurs and a shove. (She also required staff to feed a pet chameleon.) nytimes.com/2026/09/23/us/po…

Big Tech thinks they can buy whatever they want, including politicians. This is how we fight back
BIG AI IS BUYING OFF POLITICIANS. We're doing something about it. As people demand action to stop Big AI from putting our lives in danger, execs from @OpenAI, @PalantirTech, and @a16z built a monster Super PAC to pay politicians to kill common-sense regulation. We’re calling on every politician to REJECT @LeadingTheFutureAI. 10 federal candidates are already with us. If you’re worried about AI and you’re looking to take action, you should know about Leading the Future. Read this 🧵 to learn more.

Met the fabulous @MichelleButeau today at @Morning_Joe. I’m a huge fan of her #SurvivaloftheThickest, a beautiful portrayal of the real NYC.

If @AIPAC supports @MikeRogersForMI, they will guarantee a victory for @AbdulElSayed and @TheDemocrats. Go for it, AIPAC!
NEWS — AIPAC is considering a major campaign, expected to be in the tens of millions, to boost Mike Rogers over Abdul El-Sayed, sources tell me and @jennymedina. AIPAC has told allies of the plan. We could just be getting started in Michigan.

This is revolutionary! A forceful and direct challenge to Big Tech and all the damage they have done. Gutsy move by @Keir_Starmer and @UKLabour
I am simply not prepared to be a bystander when the safety and happiness of our children are at stake. We will ban social media access for under 16s, and give children their childhoods back. Read more about it here: keirstarmer.substack.com/p/g…
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The platforms, like Apple iOS/iPadOS/macOS, Android, Google Chrome and Microsoft Windows have parental controls that give parents the tools needed to restrict or block underage children access to social media. support.apple.com/en-us/105121 families.google/familylink/ support.microsoft.com/en-us/family-s… Banning will just encourage VPN usage.

$10 million from the man who gave NYC stop and frisk, defended it for years and only apologized when he needed votes for President. That’s the money behind Micah Lasher
The largest single super PAC in NY-12 is not from any Artificial Intelligence group (supporting or opposing Alex Bores), but from former Mayor Michael Bloomberg (supporting Micah Lasher) with $10M

Bloomberg tried to buy the Presidency in 2020 and lost. He tried to buy the Mayoralty for Cuomo in 2025 and lost. Now he’s trying to buy a House seat. And he will lose again.

To all the critics of this plan: Neither the private sector nor the public sector has solved the growing problem of food deserts. So kudos to @ZohranKMamdani for not accepting the broken status quo and helping families get affordable food. That doesn’t sound so radical to me…

No one should have as much power as Sam Altman has right now. We need to rein him in, so it’s time to #QuitGPT. Act now! @QuitGPT

Sid, you really don’t know anything about @ZohranKMamdani. @NYCMayor loves our city and our country, hates all forms of prejudice, opposes political violence and wants to unify us. Which is helluva lot more than I can say for you since you just can’t stop spewing hate.

SUCH a smart move by @ZohranKMamdani! A transcendent plan for affordability and a perfect way to handle Trump. Right on, Mayor!
I had a productive meeting with President Trump this afternoon. I’m looking forward to building more housing in New York City.
