Hope and solidarity won tonight, and will win again in November. Congratulations, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

I hope that Democratic Party leaders are watching what’s happening in New York and don’t just think of it as a fluke. They need to finally understand that the party is going to change, whether they like it or not.

New from me! “Mamdani's NYC mayor campaign is lesson for Democrats – if they listen” www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Just a reminder the next mayor of NYC also released fire tracks as a rapper

BREAKING: Zohran #Mamdani is on track to become Dems' candidate for #NYC mayor — toppling Andrew Cuomo's comeback dreams and putting incumbent Eric Adams on notice. #Cuomo has conceded and said he called to congratulate Mamdani […]

I get elected Executive Director of the state building trades and Mamdani is elected to NYC Mayor in the same night. Coincidence? Some say “maybe”, other’s aren’t so sure!

Yessssss #nyc #nycMayor #election #uspol

Really hope the NYC mayor inspires voter blocks around the country to vote young and vote for people who give a shit about the little guy. Don't concern yourself with electibility. If you like a candidate they are electable.

Mamdani leads Cuomo in Democratic primary for NYC mayor; race to go to ranked-choice count

So Big Balls committed crimes, has all our data and gets to resign? Did the government give him a golden parachute too? People think this is good news. It’s not. He’s going to commit more crimes using our data. WHEN PRISON? WHEN INVESTIGATION? FFS!

RIP Big Balls I'll still never eat your dad's popcorn

One thing the Dem establishment never really got over was the fact that Hillary Clinton lost the 2008 nomination because she supported the Iraq War. Denial and anger followed rather than learning from that decision.

“Ultimately, Trump's decision to bomb Iran had little to do with any sudden change in intelligence assessments. The choice to use military force was a judgment call, and now, it’s his to own,” @shaneharris.bsky.social writes.

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi plans to visit Moscow to meet with Putin. This was reported by NBC News journalist Andrea Mitchell, who spoke with an Iranian diplomat. “He said he plans to travel to Moscow on Monday to meet with Vladimir Putin,” she noted in her report.

Something to watch www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Iran's Foreign Minister: "Russia is a friend of Iran,we enjoy a strategic partnership,we always consult with each other&coordinate our positions.Even in the past two,three months that we were negotiating with the USA, we always briefed our Russian friends about the latest of about any progress."

Seems important.

Israeli prime ministers who bend American presidents to their will have a long and distinguished pedigree. The last U.S. president to stand up to Israel and demand that it reverse itself in a matter of war was Dwight Eisenhower. https://trib.al/C2iKvJP

It’s bc the two countries’ intelligence institutions are entwined in illegal & immoral ways.

The Daily Show reminded us in the montage below how Netanyahu has LIED about the "imminent" threat of Iran obtaining nuclear weapons since 1995. Netanyahu has for years wanted US to bomb Iran. In Trump, Netanyahu simply found a moron who believed him:

Any corporate executive who signs off on a bribe to Trump should be prepared to explain their crimes in front of Congress and to the public when Democrats retake power

Republicans are trying to sell off your public lands in their budget bill to pay for their tax cuts for billionaires and corporations.

I invited Dr. Oz to keep his promise to join me in Eastern Oregon so the Trump administration could answer to Oregonians about its plans to gut Medicaid. He was a no show. Trump officials are hiding from the American people because there's no excuse for ripping away health care, and they know it.

One of the best things Democrats can do to try to stop Trump’s authoritarian march is to tell his collaborators that they will be held to account for any crimes they commit with this criminal administration should the party ever get back into power. One Senator www.splinter.com/sen-ron-wyde...

The system of international law is broken. There are no more rules anymore. The question is how to survive now. A new functioning system is needed. And we need to actually survive until it appears. For Europe, this is not the time for observation. It's the time for quick actions and unity.

Five things to remember about war:

61 years ago today, the Klan murdered three civil rights workers in Mississippi. One of them was a childhood friend. I'd like to share what he meant to me. https://youtu.be/u-kv3wdqqNo?si=Zc3Uh-CJOcODt-RW

❗️Ukrainian Armed Forces launch counteroffensive in Sumy region, – DeepState. Andriivka settlement liberated

Calling Trump starting a war a “distraction” makes that word meaningless. It’s the whole story, he flails any way he can to feel any sense of control and dominance. And he doesn’t care who he gets killed. And millions could die because he tore up a peace deal because he didn’t make it.

Truly do this, and if you can’t canvas, phone bank

Can everyone commit to a canvassing/phone banking shift for Zohran to gotv? It’s very fun. You can personally get people to change their mind on Cuomo. Meet neighbors new friends. See nyc in it’s glory. We have only a few days left!

Beating these assholes is within reach friends

Epstein associate endorsements for NYC Mayor: Cuomo: 3 Zohran: 0

spent my afternoon making a short little web game for New Yorkers called "Don't Rank Cuomo"... it has 10 levels. it's very realistic and challenging. can YOU don't rank Cuomo? play in browser (free): radiatoryang.itch.io/cuomo

[checking the flight logs for Cuomo, Andrew]
