Trump: "They're gonna make DC a state and they're gonna make Puerto Rico a state. So now they pick up two states, four senators. They're gonna pick up electoral votes. It's gonna be a very, very bad situation. Now, if we do what I'm saying, they'll most likely never obtain power."

I don’t think enough people are talking about the beauty
of NYC electing its first Muslim mayor the day Dick Cheney died. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I love how stupid assholes are demanding Zohran Mamdani deliver on every promise instantly, as if corporatists always deliver on their promises, much less make any promises worth wanting. As if the entire billionaire establishment isn’t going to do everything they can to stop him. Just STFU. 😂

Mr. "I Don't Take Responsibility At All" thinks the MASSIVE BLUE WAVE was because he wasn't on the ballot, not
a Major Referendum on his 2nd Term.

Turns out folks prefer feeding the hungry over building expen$ive, tacky Ballrooms.

Looking forward to the midterms... 🌊

Abigail Spanberger 46 years old.
Mikie Sherrill 53 years old.
Zohran Mamdani 34 years old.
Beginning to see a trend here?

I'd only watch Ben Shapiro and Charlemagne talk if the third secret host was a hungry grizzly bear

When is the last time this idiot went to a grocery store or a gas station…

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Lmaoooo how did I miss this post

“How come I wasn’t elected mayor?”
“Cuomo, you’re a rapist”

Oh, you simple-minded, wheezing gargoyle . . . you were very much on the ballot. You are blamed for the shutdown. You are blamed from SNAP shutting down. You are blamed for a bad economy. And numerous people interviewed last night mentioned that seeing the East Wing destroyed motivated them to vote.

Live updates: US voters head to the polls in first general election since Trump's return to power One year after Donald Trump retook the presidency, 2025 Election Day includes closely watched races for New York City mayor, New Jersey governor and California's Proposition 50.

BREAKING: Colorado voters approved a ballot measure that would raise state income taxes on higher-earning households to fund free meals for all public school students.

The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.

It didn't matter.

Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

Zohran Mamdani: "So Donald Trump, since I know you're watching, I have four words for you: Turn the volume up."

Just looking at the map of the UPS crash area, this could have been so much worse...

On one side of the crash is the Ford Assembly plant with hundreds of people. (plant employees 3-4k)
On the other side, a CSX intermodal train yard, likely tons of crazy HAZMAT

These were all people standing in line at their local food pantries hoping they would be able to get some food items before they ran out since there were hundreds maybe thousands of people hoping the same thing.

This Country is falling into a Depression right in front of our eyes.

A lot of the people you see arguing against food assistance are actually on food assistance. They work at Walmart or a convenience store and think they are deserving, but others are not.

This is projection and the way that the 1% keep poor people pitted against poor people so they don’t look up.

“Here in New Jersey, we know that this nation has not ever been, nor will it ever be ruled by kings. We take oaths to a Constitution, not a king.” - Governor-elect @mikiesherrill.bsky.social #NoKings

What a powerful speech. Woody Guthrie would have loved the timbre of Zohran Mamdani's voice and the import of his words and ideas.

"If ... we fulfill the needs of the self, we prosper, and ... we become aware of the needs of the communal and can fulfill them." #CarlJung #Jung #SharedFacts #HumanReasoning

AOC: We have a future to fight for, and we're either going to do that together or you're going to be left behind. It's not about Progressive. It's not moderate, it's not liberal. This is about do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now? And the assignment is you come together…

CA Democrats probably just saved the House of Representatives for the entire country but MSNCB decided a mayoral race in NYC was more important to talk about.

We had less than 8 weeks to get this done and managed record turnout.

Stop telling me Democrats are bad at messaging. It’s a MSM problem.

Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant."

Yep, they were part of the Morrill Land Grant Act aimed at helping the vast numbers of rural impoverished Americans. That was how they got the "cow college" label.

AOC: I have to tell you, in my traveling across the country, I am hearing and have been seeing consistent things from everyday people. And it is that they are terrified, they are frustrated, they are angry, and they are shocked by a president violating the values that we hold dear

AOC: "This is about, do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now? And they assignment is to come together across difference no matter what."
