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.

Here's your periodic reminder that political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

All those Dems who endorsed Cuomo now need to quickly endorse Mamdani. Gillibrand, Clinton, Ritchie Torres, everyone else - you're not going to back away from the general election just because your guy lost the primary right? Let's see that commitment of support ASAP. Thanks!

Democrats, learn from Zohran and AOC on how to win over the masses. Look at the messaging. Look at the issues. Look at how they communicate.

BREAKING: Whistleblower discloses Emil Bove, a Trump judicial nominee, voiced intent to violate court orders to fulfill Trump’s mass deportation campaign.

submitted 22 hours ago • 16 comments

Like we said yesterday: speak out and you’re fired. The Trump administration has made it clear, if you report wrongdoing, you’ll be fired. A senior Justice Department official, Emil Bove III, told staff he was willing to ignore court orders to push Trump’s deportation agenda.

Emil Bove has no respect for the rule of law and court orders. He does not belong on the federal bench.

submitted 1 day ago • 52 comments

The Bove allegations should be treated as something akin to Watergate, or Iran Contra. The administration was attempting to do something they knew was illegal (anticipating the courts saying as much), and then trying to COVER IT UP. Only here instead of it being run out of the WH or NSC, it’s DOJ

Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied. I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every vaccine-preventable death at your feet.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.

ICE needs to be shut down. It has become a masked violent thug agency committing heinous actions on behalf of a corrupt administration grifting away in the White House. The agency was not created for this purpose. It should be shut down.

The Supreme Court issued a stay, effectively ruling, for now, that the Constitution no longer applies, at least not to immigrants. Fast-track deportations with no opportunity for judicial review violate the fundamental principle of due process, especially for people already on U.S. soil.
