Jeffries: hey the GOP controls the government, absolutely nothing i can do, gonna work on my personal book tour Sanders: brb i am going to personally barnstorm strategic GOP house districts and try to peel off 2 votes so we can block Trump's cuts to Medicaid www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

coming this holiday season

Nothing easy. Nothing comfortable. Don't let them go anywhere without resistance. Make sure there's always a little doubt in the back of their minds.

Conflict between DOGE protesters and party goers.

This is how it’s done.

NEWS Ashley St. Clair, the mother of Elon Musk’s 13th child, has filed for sole custody in court. @taylorlorenz.bsky.social scoops Full Story: bit.ly/4gNSBhP

These public displays of outrage won't move members of the 2025 GOP, who are more afraid of Trump endorsing against them in their primaries than anything else But these videos are important for another reason: Firing up the despondent anti-Trump base, who really need a win right now

Holy shit! You’ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: “You don’t think I’m going to stand up for you?” Woman in the crowd: “You need to stand up.” Another woman: “Don’t bend over.” 🔥

Over on X, simple tweets by my colleague Greg Bluestein of the Atlanta Journal Constitution have been blocked. They were nothing but video of a town hall held by Rep. Rich McCormick R-GA where he was asked questions about DOGE

After publishing this story, which features a picture of the protest at Children's National in DC, I have been informed that moments ago, Childrens National in DC has resumed transgender care. The hospital protests worked! Keep doing them!

🧵👀 In 2025, local offices are on the ballot! Our socialists-in-office have led the charge for affordable housing, expanding tenants’ rights, a ceasefire and arms embargo. We support candidates who will continue to fight for the needs of all working people in their communities.

The state ethics commission looked into Andrew Cuomo’s $5 million pandemic book deal—the one he had his staff start writing in *March 2020.* So Cuomo tried to destroy the ethics commission. Today he lost. It won’t be the last time this year.

🚨 FEBRUARY MAYORAL MATCHING FUNDS DISBURSEMENTS 🚨 (for the January filing period) Zohran Mamdani: $2,827,443 (1st round) Zellnor Myrie: $2,200,109 (1st round) Brad Lander: $696,656 Scott Stringer: $692,292 No other candidates qualified for matching funds this round

a good example of how the world is getting dumber. the new politico playbook writer didn't know who FDR was until a reader told him about that whole "new deal" thing. this newsletter is read by every important person in DC.

Today the NYC Campaign Finance Board announced our campaign will receive $2.82 million in matching funds. More New Yorkers have donated to our campaign than any other, by far. Now their small dollar donations will be turbocharged. We already had the momentum—now we'll have the resources to win.

Snow, rain and gusty winds didn't stop our volunteers from knocking on another 8,000+ doors across NYC last week. Despite the political chaos, we're laser-focused on a positive vision to address the cost of living crisis and make this city work for working people. zohranfornyc.com/volunteer

🐦 @hellgatenyc.com with the crucial bird flu reporting the lede is a winner too but you'll have to click through for that hellgatenyc.com/bird-flu-egg...

you can’t build your politics around being anti-cringe. like 30 years ago every corny Republican dipshit started saying “DEMONcrats” and now they rule the nation with an iron fist

Valentine’s Day is coming up and I’ve been thinking about our future…

Do you live in NYC? Are you dreading Adams or Cuomo as our next mayor? Want to elect someone better? Then you *must* ensure you're registered to vote as a Democrat by February 14th so you can vote in the primary (the only election that matters this year). Link below ⬇️

A Democratic Party willing to shift even slightly away from Biden’s unconditional support for Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza is a Democratic Party that would’ve beaten Trump in November. That’s it, straight up! All this back and forth is just cope in the face of that obvious fact

At a protest called to decry NYU Langone’s cancellation of medical appointments for young trans patients, now filling St. Vartan Park in Manhattan.

I have been informed it is Threshold Day 🦎🦎🦎 A day of unmitigated lust! But such darling baby lizards…

Some intel: I've talked to journalists and folks on the Hill about this. Last night after OMB's action, some Senate Dems tried to unify the caucus to vote against Duffy. Schumer, among others, opposed it, and it flopped. The current Dem leadership strategy is to use strong language but not do shit.

this is an illegal order. the president does not have the legal authority to discriminate against entire categories of americans on the basis of sex. this order is no different than if he had issued one reinstituting segregation.

This morning I joined the Democratic Socialists of America NYC chapter. Why? Because AOC.

CATCH DONALD TRUMP DOING SOMETHING HYPOCRITICAL TO FILL THE HYPOCRISY BAR ABOVE HIS HEAD. WHEN THE BAR IS FULL HE WILL STOP BEING PRESIDENT

NYC-DSA haters

Amazing turnout of canvassers on a cold winter’s day for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social campaign for Mayor ❤️ 🔥 We endorse! ✅ free buses ✅ rent freeze ✅ no cost child care

While getting hair did today, my hairdresser (who works out of her home) got door-knocked by volunteers for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's mayoral campaign! She said she couldn't talk cuz she was with a client (me), but I *ran* to the door, foils in my hair, to assure them that I'd take care of it!

On this frigid day in January, nearly 400 volunteers knocked on 11,717 doors to share our vision for a city working people can afford. We are building a campaign unlike any other.

my canvassing partner and i had 12 conversations and 2 pledges 😁
