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).

Haley Stevens’s defection from the Democratic vote isn’t a story about party intrigue, writes Ta-Nehesi Coates, but one about “violent, chauvinist power.”

There’s a mass psychosis taking place where people are heralding this new Avatar as best in the franchise when it’s painfully middling. It is so bland and uninspired and lifeless, and the writing has lost all of its charm and intrigue. So many are saying better than ATLA S1 lmao

Patrick Stewart, who died last week at the age of 86, was a committed socialist from the start.
That conviction ran through his greatest role: Jean-Luc Picard, a leader who used reason and compassion rather than force. jacobin.com/2026/11/patrick-…

Breaking my own rule and writing a Twitter essay...
Two days before the midterms, Haley Stevens, the beneficiary of AIPAC’s record-setting $30 million in her primary, appeared with Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers at Perfecting Church in Detroit where she claimed that Rogers would “take on” investing in Black-owned businesses. She then endorsed him.
This attempted ratfuck is galling for any number of reasons, but what disgusts me most is the willingness of these genocidal white politicians to use Black voters as human shields for their racism against Abdul El-Sayed. Rogers has run one of the most racist Senate campaigns this century, and yet, Stevens is now climbing aboard while ostensibly professing concern for Black voters.
This is an instructive moment in understanding why Zionists must be purged from the party: as believers in a supremacist project themselves, they view Black voters as a faction to be weaponized, not as constituents who deserve genuine representation. They are saboteurs in the broader fight for racial justice. A belief in an ethnostate sustained through apartheid, force, genocide, and domination is fundamentally incompatible with an anti-fascist, anti-racist coalition.
Good luck browbeating the Democratic electorate into supporting some pro-Israel corporate centrist in the 2028 presidential election after this saga.

These clips of TNG that are circulating remind me of what a comforting, hopeful vision that show was. Just the background omnipresent rumble of the warp drive and well-spoken professionals figuring out impossible problems in the future.
So much brighter than our actual lives.

John Mulaney says Michael Jackson wasn’t the only person who grew up without a childhood, because nobody born before 1910 had one perhaps not unique
John: “People always go, ‘Oh, poor Michael Jackson, he had no childhood.’ But you know who else didn’t? Anyone born before 1910.”
“And they didn’t marry children with a giraffe as a witness.”
Conan: “We now know why John was not asked to give the eulogy at Michael Jackson’s funeral.”
John: “I had a nice version. I was perfectly willing to call an audible and switch it on the fly.”

JD Vance's in-laws' names are Radhakrishna Chilukuri and Lakshmi Chilukuri. I wonder if he tells them this stuff, too. To their faces. Or does he just save it for white MAGA rallies?
Truly a racist pathetic embarrassment of a son-in-law to his brown Indian immigrant in-laws.

RFK Jr.'s a disgusting racist. We all know that.
But as Anti-Arab and Islamophobic hate rises, and as this vile rhetoric puts people in danger, we must all speak out louder than the hate. We will not let these fascists win.

"The purpose of the harassing comments is to silence women, to keep us from existing publicly. Poki is a lightning rod. A lot of people commenting on the situation aren't necessarily fans of Atrioc, they're just misogynistis on the internet who do not miss any opportunity".

pokimane does not owe atrioc forgiveness nor does she need to justify her feelings regarding a situation in which SHE was violated and victimized by non-consensual sexual images of her. As a reminder, digital deepfakes of this kind are the most common, mostly target women and girls, and are classified as a form of digital tech- enabled sexual abuse. Just because the images and videos are “fake” does not mean that the harm isn’t real.
“He apologized, he took accountability” great! Perhaps though in your endless well of charitably for the man who caused this harm, you can reserve some of that empathy for the women who were victimized by those damaging actions.
hi everyone, i want to clarify some things about what i said on stream yesterday.
1) when he was first caught looking at paywalled, deepfake content of female streamers, it seems people forgot that the specific page shown on his stream was of me.
i didn't say much at the time because i was so uncomfortable, publicly humiliated, and i didn't think it needed explaining because it was so obviously wrong.
2) i appreciate that he spent thousands of dollars helping remove ai/df content (3000$ of which was offered to me specifically), but i've had to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars towards that same effort. regardless, no amount of money undoes what happened.
3) i'm not trying to cancel anyone or be the arbiter of who can do what. i'm simply sharing my feelings about something that publicly happened to me, and the ways in which it's affecting me today.
as he's become more involved in events and with people close to me, i've grown particularly uncomfortable. as far as i know, no one has really checked in with the women affected about how it makes them feel. other people forgiving him is their choice, but it doesn't mean i can't share my perspective on it as well.
one thing i've seen happen far too often is the rewriting of history, particularly as it pertains to issues like these, so i prefer to stand my ground so the narrative doesn't get twisted. hope this clarifies things!
Every other day I’m like ok I’m doing it I’m dropping fortunes weave it’s too fucking much, then I return, then I’ll hits patch of some pretty bad writing and I’m like is THIS worth it??? I QUIT! Then I’m like but waitttt what about FABIO! And the cycle continues

victim blaming a 12 year old rape victim, these people deserve to be in prison, not running for office
Vivek Ramaswamy's campaign releases a statement on ad featuring Amy Acton's estranged mother:
"We don't know what happened between Amy and her mother, who first spoke out about Amy in 2020, but we know that Amy Acton is a serial fabulist who has some serious problems with the truth that the public needs to be aware of before deciding who to entrust as governor."
