Focusing solely on how Trump’s margin of victory increased in NYC can obscure what actually happened. It wasn’t primarily driven by Democrats switching to Trump, but Dems staying home.
In New York City, Trump won 94,000 more votes than he did in 2020 – a significant shift that we must reckon with.  But 573,000 fewer New Yorkers voted for Harris. That’s the far bigger challenge to confront.

Inspiring: A Meta AI chatbot called "FungiFriend" got added to a mushroom forager Facebook group and immediately told members there it is safe to sauté a mushroom known to often contain deadly amounts of arsenic. Mods say the bot was added automatically 404media.co/ai-chatbot-added…

donald trump has opened a box that can never be resealed
Elon Musk "has been seen at Mar-a-Lago nearly every single day since Donald Trump won, dining with him on the patio at times" and "weighing in on staffing decisions, making clear his preference for certain roles," @kaitlancollins reports

Buy a good, heavy set of steel-toed boots instead. Get in better physical shape. Go to protests, preferably the kind that include marching. The most powerful weapon the working class has is the ability and determination to refuse to work in the first place.

for posterity:
The American people have spoken. Congratulations to President Trump on a strong win. Now, it’s time for the American people to come together, pray for our country, and start the process of a peaceful transition. That begins with Kamala Harris conceding. You can’t just talk about unity in a campaign, you have to show it regardless of the outcome.

I am not trans. I am, nevertheless, one of you. To the extent I am capable of defining my own community, you are part of it. Transphobes are not. Anyone who chooses to may bank on that. Anybody who can't trust a c1s wh1te dude in South Carolina saying that: its ok. I get it. ❤️

“This is on the occasion of Donald Trump's presidency." An Israeli soldier congratulates Trump on his victory by shooting at people's homes in the Gaza Strip. Committing war crimes to support a rapist.

Heads up, this is the guy who convinced Kamala to stop running on "Republicans are weird" and "We're not going back" and instead to lean into the whole "Republicans in the Cabinet" bullshit. This man is more at fault for what just happened than most people in America.

The police station in the Village of Melrose Park in suburban IL has a Trump flag outside its building. Apparently, the top cop defended it saying they endorsed Trump. This is a public govt building making this v ilegal & they need to be held accountable.

A @USPS mail carrier in the vicinity of Skowhegan #Maine , driving vehicle # 0209919, is violating the Hatch Act, the fed law which prohibits postal workers from electioneering using gov't vehicle. I'd be concerned about this employee handling mail- in ballots. #mepolitics
