While a number of political leaders have pledged support for Mamdani, a significant faction is in full panic at the idea of a young Muslim democratic socialist taking control of City Hall without its help or permission. My latest in @nymag.com
As always, the crystal clarity we need, right when we most need it. Thank you @mashagessen.bsky.social
So mad I forgot to include her numbers!

Congratulations to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social on a bold, hard-fought win. New Yorkers want leaders who challenge the status quo. I look forward to working with him to make our city more affordable, equitable, and just—for everyone who calls it home.
what’s funny is that if pro-cuomo centrist democrats were less myopic they might see that mamdani was running the kind of campaign that could help rebuild the party brand — accessible with an outsider persona and a focus on “kitchen table” issues.
“Protest is the new brunch”— a friend back in 2016
The L.A. protesters have really gone too far this time… 🌼
Evidently a prank (just checked). And a good one!
“We encourage people of color and ethnic groups to sign up for maximum perception control.” That is some serious Orwell shit.
Yes here we are again, @indvsblharlem.bsky.social stomping for @nywfp.bsky.social and the excellent #RankTheSlate candidates for mayor. It’s a month to the primary, 3 weeks till early voting. Get your dance cards ready for these 4 — +1 more? (But #NoMoCuomo!)
I’m on the Senate floor right now urging my colleagues to vote no on the GENIUS Act.
There is no excuse for Congress to pass a crypto bill that will turbocharge Trump’s corruption and undermine national security, consumer protection, and our financial stability.
Hitting the Columbia greenmarket bright and early with @indvsblharlem.bsky.social for @nywfp.bsky.social and #RankTheSlate! Lots of great energy (but not for C***o)!
@chrismurphyct.bsky.social is right.
The GENIUS Act, without serious fixes, rubber-stamps the President’s corruption.
Democrats should not be helping the President cash in.
Too many New Yorkers are under the impression that Cuomo would stand up to Trump because he, too, is a blustering, abusive person. But in reality, Cuomo is being backed by Trump donors. Trump recently said he likes him. Cuomo has avoided criticizing Trump or his authoritarian takeover.
Fantastic morning talking to voters at the Morningside Park Greenmarket about the @workingfamilies.org mayoral slate with fellow @indvsblharlem.bsky.social members. Lots of interest in #RankTheVote and lots of anti-Cuomo sentiment!
Every administration official should be grilled like this, every time. Think like you're creating a record for future Nuremberg Trials. youtu.be/EwZWCk1ytPU?...
Hey New Yorkers, Montana (of all places) has a reverse IDC! Some of us were just talking about how we need this in Congress. www.hcn.org/articles/a-n... @juliegoldberg.bsky.social @beckela.bsky.social @gabriellers.bsky.social @inwoodactivist.bsky.social
My @indvsblharlem.bsky.social friends and I had a great time today talking to Harlem voters about the upcoming NYC mayor’s race, #RankedChoiceVoting and the @workingfamilies.org slate. Oh and #DontRankCuomo!

From Abby’s Bakery in Los Fresnos to the Australian MMA coach to the El Salvador gulag, we see the cruelty, stupidity & lawlessness of Trump’s war on immigrants.
The immigration issue can’t be ducked. It’s the beating heart of Trumpism. Confronting Trumpism means defending immigrants & immigration.
Sackets Harbor, NY is so small that there’s one pre k-12 school with 475 students. Three of those students were disappeared by ICE.
Here is a statement published today by school principal Jaime Cook:

My favorites:
CUCK: Cuomo Upset? Could be Kool!
ACHOO: Andrew Cuomo? Have Other Options
GROPER: Go Reject Old Perverts Evading Responsibility
But honestly, these are all gold.

With tariffs, Trump is trading a strong economy for one run on loyalty and retribution. Tariffs scale his weaponization of government across the entire economy, with waivers for loyalists.
But history shows that an economy run on favors is ultimately a poor one. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Thank you @booker.senate.gov. Now let us all go get in good trouble.
