The Mamdani Difference isn't that he's secretly moderate, it's that as a mayor he's accepted the responsibility of governing — setting priorities, making tradeoffs, worrying whether ideas work — while leftist members of congress can just post takes.

🇷🇺 A revealing clip in which Russian Major General Vladimir Popov says it’s shameful to call the war an “SMO,” discusses the Russian generals Ukraine has allegedly eliminated, and mentions Belarus in a particularly interesting context.
Notice how Anton Krasovsky deliberately interrupts Popov just as he starts naming the generals who were killed.
Also, pay attention to what Popov says about Belarus. Which conflict in Belarus is he referring to?
Could he mean the incident that took place on the Belarusian-Latvian border in early October? What else might he have in mind?

🇷🇺 An absolutely fascinating clip in which Major General Popov admits that the Russian military was unprepared for war.
Just don’t tell anyone!
It’s a secret! 🤐
‼️Popov’s description of the Russian mindset explains why Russia keeps waging wars instead of focusing on building prosperity.

NEW: Amy Acton releases a rapid-response ad hitting back at Vivek Ramaswamy’s vile attack ad featuring her estranged mother.
The new ad features Acton’s brother recounting the horrific childhood sexual and physical abuse she endured while protecting him.

I didn't know anything about Amy Acton's childhood before today.
Now I would run through a brick wall for her.

Somebody is going to die this cycle. It’s either state-level polling, or the Republican Party. They can’t both survive.

A restaurant owner in New York City was arrested for withholding at least $8,000 from 5 workers who performed kitchen, dishwashing, and delivery duties for him.
Patrick Griffin, 71, was charged with grand larceny by wage theft, fraud, and failure to pay wages. All 3 of his restaurants have been permanently closed.
This is a big deal because wage theft used to be a civil dispute, which gets resolved with some fines and a slap on the wrist.
In 2023, New York amended the law to explicitly classify wage theft as criminal grand larceny. Under this law, any stolen wages over $1,000 allows prosecutors to bring felony charges.
Griffin's charges fall under a Class D felony.
District attorneys in New York are actively using criminal law to prosecute employers who steal from their workers instead of leaving the issue to civil courts. The entire USA should follow suit.
Lock this thug up!

My take on the Shane Gillis monologue?
I’m a college professor and use the campus gym. There, I see lady students with literally their bare vulvas out, rubbing on the machines.
But I don’t call them “whores.” I just look, make a note to use that machine later, and carry on.
