Brad Lander told NY1 at Mamdani’s party that what Democrats need to decide right now is whether to be “fighters or folders” and yes he should immediately mount a primary challenge to Chuck Schumer

I live in rural N Georgia and the failure of the Georgia Democratic Party to support candidates who run in races/ to let Republicans go un contested is a huge issue.

I came across this when I was looking for updates on the NYC Mayoral race earlier tonight- WTF WaPo? Keeping it relevant?

HAPPENING NOW: SEIU members and U.S. Senators standing united against brutal Medicaid cuts. @warren.senate.gov knows: SEIU stays ready to fight — because these cuts put lives on the line. Our care. Our power. Our lives. We won’t back down. #SaveMedicaid #KillThisBill

Dear Dems: this is what we want. This is who we want. Listen to us.

Congrats to the New Yorkers who didn’t vote for a thieving, serial sexual assaulter/ establishment politician.

Mamdani: Tonight, we made history. In the words of Nelson Mandela, it almost seems impossible until it is done. My friends, we have done it. I will be your Democratic nominee for the mayor of New York City.

There were two girls at Wawa just now talking about funny movies and one said, “Have you ever seen the movie Office Space? It’s an old people movie but it’s funny”

Not just NYC? The more liberal candidates are leading in the mayoral Dem primaries of Buffalo and Syracuse, as well.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

Democratic Leaders Stand Real Still In Hopes No One Notices Them theonion.com/democra...

If Zohran wins tomorrow, Cuomo will run as an independent with the most racist Islamaphobic campaign you've ever seen. Establishment Dems will line up to nuke their own primary winning candidate. It wouldn't even be the first time in New York. They already did it to India Walton in Buffalo.

Don’t be like Jeffries- make sure you’re up to date on what’s important on the hill. Especially when it’s just four (4) pages long like this War Powers Resolution

UPDATE, 24+ hours since the Trump-Vance admin bombed Iran: — 52 House members signed onto the Massie-Khanna War Powers Resolution — 3 Senators supporting Kaine's War Powers Resolution — 8 Senators signed onto Bernie's No War Against Iran Act 60 total. 59 Democrats. 1 Republican.

Deeply respect Lander for spending the final days of the campaign going completely kamikaze on stopping Cuomo

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

Anyone want to tell the legislators?

Imagine having some kind of opposition leadership at a time like this.

Can anyone in the Military explain how this is possible. And then tell me what you make of it?

Brad Lander via @jfrejnyc.bsky.social on Insta: “I am proud as a Jewish New Yorker to be on that slate alongside a Muslim New Yorker. Jewish New Yorkers and Muslim New Yorkers are not going to be divided against each other. Our safety, our freedoms, our thriving are bound up together.”

Millionaire Matchmaker Patti Stanger is commenting this nonsense under Jack Schlossberg’s Instagram post about voting for Zohran Mamdani. Folks are really showing out

PTSD really sucks but having to beg family members to do the least not to aggravate your PTSD also really sucks

For @motherjones.com, looking to speak to someone in New York state who has faced issues with having their wheelchair fixed. My email is [email protected] and reposts appreciated (even off this site)

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 97 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo (or video) of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

The at home assassination of a state lawmaker should be getting a bigger reaction from the President than someone throwing a rock at a Tesla dealership.

Who the absolute fuck wants Emanuel? WTF

If you’re under 30, you weren’t even born the last time Andrew Cuomo lived here. This is your city. Vote like it.
