Lol the NYTimes Editorial Board says don't rank Zohran, a state rep who's won several significant legislative victories, cause he has "less relevant experience than perhaps any mayor in NYC history," and instead recommends Tilson, a hedge fund manager with ZERO gov experience.

The Pawtucket Police just shot another Black man because he had a toy gun. In 2016, they shot a Black man because he had a BB gun. Surely, they should have trained the Pawtucket cops to tell the difference between a real gun and a toy gun.

Pawtucket is only 13% Black. So why is it Black men that they keep shooting? The last two people they shot dead were Black men. The latest victim is, too. Hopefully, he’ll survive. steveahlquist.substack.com/p/mother-of-pa…

There have been attacks against Democrats and Republicans, but at the center of this increase in political violence is the first President in our lifetime who regularly legitimizes violence as part of our politics. That's what's different about this moment and we should say it.

The President does not have the authority to make this decision. There is no imminent threat to America from Iran. He cannot take this action without congressional authorization. I will not vote to give him that authority, and I likely represent the majority of Congress.

At this dangerous moment in history, status quo politics isn’t good enough. We need new leadership that is prepared to stand up to powerful corporate interests & fight for the working class.  Zohran Kwame Mamdani is providing that vision. He is the best choice for NYC mayor.

Good morning. If the the Senate passes the Republican budget bill, 40% of American families - those with lower and middle incomes - will LOSE money. They will become poorer. But the richest families will get an average $270,000 tax cut. Because they only care about the rich.

Yet another elected Democratic official violently arrested and detained by Trump’s ICE Gestapo. This isn’t frog in boiling water. This fascism is happening quickly, clearly, brazenly.

These ICE goons are completely out of control. Arresting US Citizens, elected officials, and terrorizing our communities. Comptroller Lander was simply asking for the warrant.

The routine arresting of elected officials opposing government action is a hallmark of fascism, and it is happening before our very eyes. @BradLander must be released immediately

Jeans, loose shirt, backwards caps, a fancy watch - Trump’s ICE thugs dress like street toughs because that’s what they apparently want to be

I call on the Providence Mayor Mayor Brett Smiley to issue a FOIA request of ICE for Providence just as Mayor Michelle Wu 吳弭 of Boston did earlier today. With the Freedom of information Act, requests for records and information on specific ICE policies that are related to enforcement actions in the

This is one of the most sick, twisted, depraved massacres yet. Israel fired tank shells into a crowd of starving people waiting for food, killing over 50. They're not even denying it.

Obama’s wrong but this is an incredibly common elite pathology: the belief that your voice should be held strategically in reserve, to strike at the right moment and change everything. Then they do and it’s washed away by the firehose of noise. I call it Jim Mattis Syndrome.

We live in the age of the poster and podcaster - you win debates by filling the discursive space. That means talking, talking forever. It’s not dignified, so it’s been terrible for liberals, because so many of our best voices are obsessed with preserving their dignity.

ICE is conducting raids in our city as part of Trump’s campaign of terror. Their goal is to intimidate Providence, but it will only motivate us to fight harder against Trump and his dictatorial agenda.

The same people that have been abusing the current 8 law are the same folks that were pushing the commercial conversion amendments that included no affordability requirements at all which is the whole point of 8 law. This is a win for the people of Providence.
