This should make you angry. The Trump administration's cruel ICE detention of his desperate parents delayed their final goodbye and robbed this family of precious time. This heartless cruelty is not who we are as Americans. op: @aaronparnas

Not a single one of Trump’s (ever changing) war goals is close to being achieved. Iran still has the majority of their missiles and drones. They still have a nuclear program. They are more powerful globally today than before the war. An utter disaster.

Inflation just hit a 3-year high, gas prices are out of control and life under Donald Trump is unaffordable. But this guy spent all night rage-posting on social media. Can someone do a wellness check?

Matt Bennett: "[Hasan Piker] is a vile person. And there's plenty of vile people on Twitch, but not many of them are campaigning with major candidates for the U.S. Senate." @monacharen speaks with Matt Bennett about what democrats should and should not do in preparation for the midterms. One of the prevailing items, stop campaigning with Hasan Piker.

George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸
Sure, removing a president and his cabinet (which includes the vice president!) is a tall order. It's never happened. But before you say it isn't worth trying, ask yourself these questions: 👉 Can our democracy—and economy—withstand 32 more months of what we've had over the past 16? 👉 Do you think the polling numbers showing how unbelievably pissed millions of Trump voters are at him for raising their costs of living mean nothing? 👉 Do you think pusillanimous Republican senators who lacked the courage to stand up to Trump are going to have the courage to stand up for him when his own voters will have finally had enough? 👉 Do you think we can really get anything really useful done for the country while Trump and his ilk remain in charge? 👉 Do you just want to let the country burn for the next two and a half years, instead of doing everything you can to put the fire out as soon as possible?

George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸
.@NYMag: “Central to Conway’s pitch is that Trump is a uniquely authoritarian threat who needs to be removed from office. Most Democrats in the district agree with him, but leaders in the House have tamped down impeachment talk, fearing it will turn off swing voters. Conway says he aims to do this in his first term and then serve one more to try to codify into law a remedy against future presidential abuses. … Conway would annoy the hell out of Trump. "At a recent sold-out candidate forum at 92NY, Conway made his impeachment appeal, only to be interrupted by Lasher, who said there was no world in which the Senate would convict Trump. Schlossberg then interjected, too, saying Lasher’s unwillingness to say Trump should be removed showed his timidity and revealed what was wrong about the Democratic Establishment. "Lasher was beside himself." apple.news/A4TgwFttpQBC1d…

There’s a wide and growing generational divide — Young Americans love SOUR CANDY , they don’t choose chocolate. Older Americans (like myself) , we still crave cocoa — I had a snickers bar yesterday.

George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸
"Conway, 62, is running something of a yolo campaign. 'If instead of deciding to become a lawyer, I’d decided to pursue my interest in politics and go into politics, I’d be really stressed out right now. But I just have no fucks to give,' he says. "Central to Conway’s pitch is that Trump is a uniquely authoritarian threat who needs to be removed from office. Most Democrats in the district agree with him, but leaders in the House have tamped down impeachment talk, fearing it will turn off swing voters. Conway says he aims to do this in his first term and then serve one more to try to codify into law a remedy against future presidential abuses."
New York Magazine@NYMag

NY-12, which includes both the Upper West and Upper East Sides, is the smallest and most population-dense congressional district in the country, one that candidates can crisscross several times over in an afternoon. It is among the wealthiest and oldest districts in the United States and is also the district with the most college graduates. If you listen to the candidates, the battle for NY-12 is not just about who will be the next member of the city’s congressional delegation but a contest among factions of the island’s Democratic base: the old-money elite, the anti-Trump resisters, the tech-world crusaders, and the old-school party Establishment. While nearly a dozen candidates are vying for the district’s congressional seat, the primary is coming down to just four: Micah Lasher, a state assemblyman from the Upper West Side and a longtime political hand who is Jerry Nadler’s anointed successor; Alex Bores, an assemblyman from the Upper East Side whose calls for AI regulation have led to millions of dollars being spent both for and against him; George Conway, the onetime Republican lawyer who has achieved notoriety as a leader of the #Resistance; and a previously little-known social-media influencer who is trying to rewrite the rules of New York City politics. “It’s New York-sized,” that social-media influencer, Jack Schlossberg, said when asked why this campaign is different. Schlossberg’s presence in the race proves the point. For our Cover Story, David Freedlander reports on how four liberal-but-not-left Democrats are racing to be the face of Manhattan: nymag.visitlink.me/Os2_Oz
