Lander’s great! He and Mamdani cross-endorsed for a reason! If one wins I expect he’ll throw his weight behind the other’s next political ambition, which would be great to see. There is no reason to give ballot space to Cuomo.

Again, Walz called them weird until the end of the campaign. The media just stopped covering it after two weeks.

What message does it send, especially to women, that the democrats will pull out all the stops to rally around a disgraced fucking rapist rather than let a socialist win a single mayoral election? I’m so tired of this shit dude

Look, whoever wins we’ll hate them. We always hate the mayor. The place is built to fuck the mayor over. The question is just who will do the least worst job. And how mad we’ll get if non-NYers hate him.

NEWS: In one of the first major federal prosecutions of an LA protester, the DOJ has moved to dismiss the case. Jose Manuel Mojica was accused of assaulting officers, but came forward to Guardian to recount how he was brutally attacked by agents. “I feel a huge relief. The truth always comes out."

right-wingers will often say that America deserves credit for ending slavery rather than blame for having slavery. but then we made a holiday to commemorate the end of slavery and they still got mad, which should tell you what their real objection is.

Illinois has enshrined protections to meet this very moment. In a time of increasing overreach and hateful rhetoric, it's more important than ever to reaffirm our commitment to the rights and dignity of the LGBTQ+ community. You have a home here always.

Office work is not more IMPORTANT than housework; housework is incredibly culturally undervalued by both sides of the political spectrum. But office work is ten times more empowering because YOU GET FUCKING MONEY FOR IT.

"I'm happy to report I'm just fine. I lost a button. But I'm gonna sleep in my bed tonight, safe, with my family... At that elevator, I was separated from someone named Edgardo... Edgardo is in ICE detention and he's not going to sleep in his bed tonight."

Brad has been released and the crowd breaks into a chant of “Free them all.”

Can take this back to Ras Baraka getting arrested for what the coverage generally called a "protest" when what he was trying to do was inspect, as mayor, a property in his city where detention was being done without permits under what turned out to be dangerous and inhumane conditions

there's some interesting irony to the organizers of an arms dealer convention having enough of a conscience to blacklist israel but not to simply not run such a convention

New Yorkers: If you haven't settled on your five candidates to rank for mayor, here's a simple metric to use: Rank the guy who was wrongly arrested for attempting to protect an immigrant from ICE, and the four people running against him who showed up to demand his release.

No plan should ever rely on fascists' capacity for shame but every time you successfully shame them is still a victory

16 homes were demolished in village of al-Hamadiya, Syria by Israel overnight. Some "overlooked" an IDF base established in Jan, others were in the way of a new IDF base planned for construction in the coming weeks -- all on newly and forcibly occupied #Syria land H/t @charleslister1.bsky.social

To correct the record here: nothing about this was a publicity stunt. New Yorkers have been doing accompaniments and court-watch shifts every day for weeks. This was @bradlander.bsky.social’s third shift. It happened out of nowhere.

NYC: if you can get to Federal Plaza near the Brooklyn Bridge/City Hall subway stops, come support Brad Lander, the latest Dem politician to be manhandled/detained by ICE for no legal reason. Zohran Mamdani is there in support of his fellow mayoral candidate. NYT's darling Cuomo nowhere in sight.

My favorite local pupuseria has been keeping their front door locked during business hours because masked ICE kidnappers have been patrolling the neighborhood. Whole areas of LA are in lockdown. It's devastating. All the stores and even the doctor's offices and churches have these posters up.

I know a lot of people just don't really know much about foreign cities, but please imagine how it would go if someone told all of NYC to evacuate "immediately," and then add two million more people to that scenario

we have an elite impunity problem and a lot of the people and institutions that nominally oppose Trump will burn down their own before admitting that this helped produce him

Trump has sent hundreds of people to El Salvador's CECOT for indefinite detention, without charge, trial or sentence. DHS has dismissed dozens of their immigration cases in absentia: "essentially rid itself of its opposing party," an immigration judge wrote recently: www.huffpost.com/entry/cecot-...

MY action-item takeaway from yesterday’s events is once again that people need to understand the importance of both brevity and scansion in chants.
