We got your back, New York!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026). arkolith.com/news/news-micr… therepublic.com/?p=843020 governor.ny.gov/news/safer-str…

Not everybody. But Nazi scum must be called what they are. Meet Kandiss‘ best friend who is Nazi scum and whom she will never call out.

Meet her best friend who campaigned for her in 2022 and is an unapologetic Nazi. This will be fun to watch.

Is this normal in your countries? A president that continues to lie even if he has been corrected a hundred times on these numbers. In Denmark, people dont like being told lies. Voters punish it. Why do Americans accept and vote for it? I dont get it.

Forbes found that Trump's businesses hired at least 1,670 temporary foreign workers since 2008.

I’m going to add to this: academia’s abandonment of Jews—even in fields and departments where they over contributed—is a harbinger of its prospective downfall. The hypocrisy and moral confusion within academia has been put on full display for over a year. Antisemitism destroys everything it touches. As the years go on, we are going to witness the continued lessening in status and societal influence of elite institutions.
The Left’s abandonment of Jews on October 7th was a harbinger of its downfall. The hypocrisy and moral confusion within the Left was put on full display that day. And it only worsened in the year that followed. Antisemitism destroys everything it touches. So it has always been, so it is now.

I’m not a puppet Elon.. I’m a daughter of two immigrant parents that had to work their ass off to provide for me! I’m a product of welfare, I’m a product of section 8, I’m a product of poverty and I’m a product of what happens when the system is set up against you….But you don’t know nothing about that. You don’t know not one thing about the American struggle…. PS fix my algorithm
Another puppet who can’t even talk without being fed the words. The Kamala campaign has no authenticity or true empathy.

This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak against them with death. We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant. #Womenwillnotbesilenced #VoteKamala
Trump on Liz Cheney: "Let's put her with a rifle standing there with 9 barrels shooting at her. Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face."

JD Vance criticizes “American leaders” who pick a side in the war in Ukraine: “Unfortunately, you got a lot of American leaders who like to beat their chest and say; this [Ukraine] is the good guy and this [Russia] is the bad guy.” *Russia is the bad guy teapawt.net/AccountableGOP/status/…

SCOOP: For the last year, far-right and pro-Trump donors have been helping raise six figures for Congressman Ritchie Torres with fundraisers and organizing. One has a history leading a movement designated a terror organization in Israel and the US. zeteo.com/p/exclusive-meet-t…

WSJ tweeted this to its 20 million followers and it has under 400 retweets - presumably suppressed due to the link out. “Elon Musk has secretly been in regular contact with Russian President Vladimir Putin since late 2022”

I’m told that, in response to my prior tweet, @EliseStefanik deleted her 1/6/21 statement — that those who stormed the Capitol “must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.” Here is Elise’s statement again. Feel free to share. #nomorecrackpots
