Seeing some more centrist folks act like it was just affordability that won the race for Mamdani. It was also moral clarity. Economics and ethics. Prices and principles. Freeze the rent AND free Palestine.

Personally I think that Andrew Cuomo’s resounding loss should mean the end of listening to guys with well-documented ties to Jeffrey Epstein

According to pre-election polls, Mamdani ran 2nd among Jewish voters. I bet that among young Jews, he'll be shown to have come in first. The arrogance and insularity of the "we" here is remarkable

Finally realizing that this grocery store stuff is very driven by specific imagery and symbolism around grocery stores. Like nobody seems triggered by the fact that NYC is home to the 11 government hospitals or the dozens of government USPS stores. It's not anti-SOE really.

I am honored to receive the endorsement of the dean of our city’s congressional delegation, Rep. Nadler. Jerry has been a principled progressive leader for decades and a champion for all New Yorkers. I am grateful for his partnership as our historic journey continues.

I know many Jews who fear Mamdani. I disagree with them but they're sincere. What they're not reckoning with is that Mamdani's views are widespread among young Jews. Israel's treatment of Palestinians has alienated a Jewish generation. Look at these polls

You don’t get a Zohran Kwame Mamdani victory without the extraordinary grassroots movement that rallied around him. And you don’t get that movement without an economic agenda that speaks to the needs of working people. My op-ed on Zohran's victory:

NEW from me co-pubbed w/Rolling Stone: The elite panic about @ZohranMamdani is about him being the first candidate to defeat the oligarchy and its master plan in a nationalized election. Follow along for a🧵

Gillibrand isn't even Jewish. Who is she to use my people, my history, my community's trauma, as a political pawn to attack a fairly elected Democratic nominee?

In 2021, Eric Adams was hailed as the “future of the Democratic Party” after it took 8 whole rounds for him to win by less than 1 point. What does that make Zohran Mamdani, if he won in 3 quick rounds by 12?

I am humbled by the support of more than 545,000 New Yorkers in last week's primary. This is just the beginning of our expanding coalition to make New York City affordable. And we will do it together.

Senate Republicans just passed their version of the big ugly bill. Big because it makes the biggest cuts to Medicaid and food assistance in US history. Ugly because billionaires get richer while working families are left to suffer. I’m headed to DC to vote no in the House on

Many Democratic Party leaders have thus far refused to fully support Zohran and have attacked his character with baseless smears that sow ugly, racist division. Let’s be clear: they are enabling this fascist president.
