This is explosive. Mayor Adams is putting the City of New York and its people at risk in exchange for escaping charges. As long as Trump wields this leverage over Adams, the city is endangered. We cannot be governed under coercion. If Adams won’t resign, he must be removed.

In normal times, just one of these things would have led to a bipartisan disqualification of RFK Jr. for the job of HHS Secretary. But it’s America in 2025, so anything goes, nothing matters, and you can get away with the most outrageous lies and conspiracies. Sheesh.

Looking at 50 years of data across 18 OECD countries: ā€œOur research suggests such policies don’t deliver the sort of trickle-down effects that proponents have claimed. They do blow up inequality, though. bloomberg.com/news/articles/… eprints.lse.ac.uk/107919/1/Hope_…

By a 1-vote margin, Republicans passed a bill to fund billionaire tax cuts by taking healthcare away from 13 million people & cutting food assistance for 10 million. Imagine if aging Dems in Congress passed the torch to the next generation instead of dying in office.

Oh yeah I remember when Biden or Obama went and did a gesture like that then days later appeared at an event hosted by a neo-nazi party in Germany... Wait come to think of it, never happened. Another high IQ remark from the so called genius.

If this is what's happening to US Senators, we can only imagine what's happening to civilians across the country and in LA. Fascism isn't an overstatement.

Much of our media will ā€˜both sides’ us into fascism. The idea that there is any kind of equivalence between the senator asking a question, even if a stunt!, and him then being assaulted and detained by police/federal agents is insane.

My very apolitical friend just said to me ā€˜No one f*cks with North Korea. Why do you think that is?’ Yep. There’s a clear message for a lot of Global South and Middle Eastern countries tonight. Sadly. And it isn’t a nonproliferation message.

If Warren had done this in 2020 that would have been something. Brad Lander is a class act and the model of the sort of left-liberal we need to make coalition with the socialist left.

"Importantly, there are hundreds of million of dollars of capital available to back a competitor to Mamdani that can be put together overnight (believe me, I am in the text strings and the WhatsApp groups)" Love it when Ackman just confesses to the existence of our oligarchy.

Imagine a Democrat calling for the deportation of a Jewish Republican. You can’t. It would never happen. Our political and media elites talk nonstop about antisemitism while totally normalizing and amplifying the worst and most vicious Islamophobia. Sickening:

If you say you’re willing to work with Donald Trump but not the Democratically elected mayor of NYC you should not be a Democrat.

It is harder than ever to believe in our democracy. It has been attacked by billionaires and hollowed out by its failure to respond to working peoples’ struggles. But on this campaign, we dreamed of a new day. And we have won it together.

Think about the sheer number of elected Democrats you’ve seen on air and online in the past 72 hours talking critically about Mamdani. Meanwhile the Trump administration is doing - and getting away - with this.

One week ago today, we shocked the establishment and redrew the political map of New York City with a campaign relentlessly focused on the needs of working people. Let's break it down.

The GOP has officially passed the largest wealth transfer in US history. $975 billion in income tax breaks for the 1%, the largest cut to food stamps in history, a $1 trillion cut to Medicaid, and many more acts of class warfare.

It's very important to understand that the corporate/centrist/anti-populist wing of the Democratic Party won the party's internal civil war and won power to direct the Democratic Party's policy and brand...and here's what that wing has delivered šŸ‘‡
