Every day, it becomes more clear that Kornberg's work at the Brennan Center on "money in politics" must have been on increasing the amount of money in politics.

It is time for every self-declared progressive in the race to endorse Zohran and urge supporters to rank him 2nd. Any candidate who doesn’t do so is supporting Cuomo.

"Abolish ICE" needs to be the moderate Democratic position going forward. The progressive position is, "Send everyone who works for ICE to the Hague."

not sure there's a more embarrassing profession than ICE agent. Oh, you dress like a soldier to abduct sous chefs and throw flashbangs at protesters? Get a real job you loser

Jonathan Greenblatt is a fascist. Anyone who supports the ADL is a supporter of fascism.

I cannot grasp the mind that allows someone to say “This man assaulted women” and then, two months later, endorse him. Do you simply not have beliefs? Are your beliefs robotic restatements of what a majority of your friends are saying?

Ramos shows her true colors. She is the worst kind of politician—petty, amoral, pathetic, cynical, and selfish.

Let's get clear! @shahanafrombk.bsky.social is endorsed by: EVERY union who has made an endorsement (and the CLC). EVERY environmental, LGBTQ, women's, and progressive / resistance group who has made an endorsement. And dozens of electeds & leaders spanning the diversity of our district & city.

Thread detailing just some of the evil big money supporting @mayaforcouncil.bsky.social. We got Uber, Big Real Estate, James Dolan, Trump-friendly billionaires. Supporting @shahanafrombk.bsky.social is absolutely necessary to fight back against all the moneyed interests.

Shame that three Dems have already died. Who could’ve seen this coming.

With three House Democrats passing away since January, it's looking like being a Democratic House Rep. is by far the most deadly job in America, with an annualized estimate of 3689 deaths per 100,000. Logging is a distant second at 100.7 per 100,000

-Three of the 215 House Democrats have died this year, all from states that Trump won (TX/AZ) or have a Republican Governor (TX/VA). -Six House Democrats have died since April 2024. -The last eight House members to die in office have been Democrats, going back to 2022.

I’m honored to receive the endorsement of my predecessor and mentor, @bradlander.bsky.social. Brad has been a tremendous guide to me—from my time working in his office to serving the district he represented with such dedication. I'm grateful for his continued support and partnership.

Democrats are enabling fascism and corruption. This bill literally allows Trump to continue receiving anonymous crypto donations. And Democrats are voting for it. Disgusting.

If Trump successfully installs his heinously corrupt henchman on the 3rd Circuit, it will be because SENATE DEMOCRATS refused to confirm Biden's nominee to this very seat—based on their own Islamophobia and credulous embrace of bigoted GOP smears. Just a total nightmare top to bottom.

“Abolish ICE” is the moderate position. Radical is “prosecute every ICE employee under RICO.”
