York University Faculty Association (YUFA) Statement on the Resignation of York University President Rhonda Lenton - June 26, 2025 [alt continued in next skeet]

Re Zohran’s grocery store plans- the government already runs discount grocery stores ALL OVER THE WORLD. They are called commissaries and they are on every US military base. No one has ever had a problem with their existence

GoFundMe is accused of unfair restrictions and financial freezes on Palestinian aid fundraisers.

A white man assassinated and tried to assassinate democrats. It’s like it never happened.

I hope he will be safe. I really do.

Zohran Mamdani’s campaign had a visual language like no other, drawing on hand-painted bodega signage and New York iconography in a completely fresh way.

Mamdani was the ONLY dem candidate who opposed mask bans. Which says all you need to know about the “left” in the United States. He will now face Adams, who has said at least three separate times that he wants a city wide mask ban. Mask bans are discriminatory ugly laws that put lives at risk.

On Friday night, we walked the length of Manhattan, from Inwood Hill to Battery Park. New Yorkers deserve a Mayor they can see, hear, even yell at. The city is in the streets.

The Communications Authority of #Kenya, the main regulator of broadcast and telecommunications platforms, has ordered all stations to stop live broadcast of protests commemorating the anniversary of the anti-finance bill protests and the police killings of protesters that day.

How is this photo real

Comrades, if Zohran wins in Nov, please release a first 100 days Zine IMMEDIATELY. Y'all have our addresses. Hard copies mailed to us & then social media sharing. Lay out the immediate plans, the obstacles to those plans, and CALLS TO ACTION THAT YOU NEED FROM RESIDENTS especially to pressure Hochul

If he wins in November, he's going to need many competent progressive people who wouldn't touch city government with a ten foot poll to join city government. A long bench is needed. that's a lesson from Chicago.

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done. My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it. I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

Yesterday was a good night for NYC Public Library Action Network. We've got lots of work to do to win our demand. You can join us. nycplan.org

Toronto: Now's the time to find our Zohran Cause Chow's gotta go

Progressive Jews said hell no to fearmongering and racism and chose the person who’s best for our city. It feels so good to have a voice.

He's going to still be on the November ballot as a 3rd party candidate [he already put in the paperwork] so the question will be if he still plans to actually run a campaign.

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Wait...WHAAAAT!!!!!! I had not seen that he conceded!!!! Holy crap, NYC!

A huge win for Actually Existing NYC.

"GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE"

Every day Israel starves 2 million people in Gaza. Every day it massacres dozens after luring them to its "aid hubs" with the promise of food. Every day the media treats this as an entirely routine story, barely worth reporting.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 102 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo (or video) of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Polls are about to close, but if you’re in line by 9:00 PM, STAY IN LINE! They must let you vote!

Problem at the polling site? Call (866) 868-3692 to notify the Board of Elections!

Demand an affidavit ballot and submit it. Your vote will count.

I wrote about the suppression of labor, the instrumentalizing of revolutionary language for counter revolutionary means, and the art market as class warfare www.e-flux.com/journal/155/...

Mohamed- a real person in Gaza with many friends got this notice and he wanted to let his friends know he was still around ❤️ gofund.me/d6c648f5

Authoritarians create an imaginary past by controlling access to actual history. They claim strength but are too fragile to face things as they actually exist.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR FUCKING ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

you can publish your work in all kinds of ways and that's a fact

I feel certain I was hearing that the numbers were circa 400,000 dead MONTHS ago. Given that this study works off IDF data, I am certain that these numbers are, still, *monstrously* undercounted. This is the *self-report* of genocidaires.

It often takes about a 10k bridge loan between end of medical school and start of residency with no pay until mid July. For those who can’t secure that or have family to back them up, it can be a panic. TY to anyone who can assist. He’s doing all he can. I have helped for 3 years. It takes a village

There are 377,000 missing Palestinians from Gaza.

Like I said, it's GOOD that a large number of people say that don't want to go to war with Iran. I wish people wouldn't psych themselves out. I was alive when USians were RABID in support of going to war as Vicky points out below. It was DREADFUL.

BREAKING: There are 377,000 Missing Palestinians from Gaza As of June 2025, a dataset hosted by Harvard shows Gaza's population has dropped from 2.2 million to just 1.85 million
