SPECIAL ELECTION ALERT:
We have one shot to flip a seat by year’s end for Tennessee's 7th congressional district.
If we win on December 2nd, Republicans lose a House seat, and 2026 shifts completely. Let’s support Aftyn Behn @aftynbehn.bsky.social and keep the momentum going. 🔄

From Texas to Minnesota, millions of hardworking Americans are seeing their health insurance premiums skyrocket. Enough is enough.

The path forward is clear: the President and Congressional Republicans must negotiate in good faith to stop this health crisis.

👀 WOW — “Speaker Johnson is stalling Grijalva until Van Epps gets there to cancel out her vote?”

TN-7 nominee @aftynbehn.bsky.social tells us Johnson plans for Van Epps to help him cover up the Epstein files. (His weak answer to NC5 is another clue🕵️ )

This person took this when they called the race

“They came into the building understanding it was a daycare. They did not have a warrant. It is a violation of our rights. It is a violation of these children’s rights. They are terrorizing our community.”

Trump’s ICE goons raided a damn daycare.

TIL that when the Beatles first came to America there was still someone alive in the US who'd been born into slavery here

The fact that I'm only in my 40s and missed by only a decade or so being alive at the same time as a former American slave further brings home for me just how recent slavery was

Robert Reich A Conversation with Zohran Mamdani

Zohran Mamdani took New York City by storm last night, with over 50 percent of the vote — despite a torrent of corporate money for Andrew Cuomo.

I was pleased to speak with the new mayor-elect just the other day about his vision for the future. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqU0DAjg0RA

It got drowned out in all the good news from last night, but Boston Mayor Michelle Wu became the youngest person to be reelected in the city's history.

She ran unopposed because her opponent--Patriots owner Bob Kraft's son--withdrew a few months ago after realizing he had no hope of winning.

Mamdani: My message to I.C.E. Agents and to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate the law, you must be held accountable.

A damn daycare. This is sick. What are we doing?

So Nice To See Democratic Women Getting The Votes and
Respect They Have Earned......

BIG NEWS buried amid the blue wave: @govwesmoore.bsky.social announces that Maryland is IN when it comes to redrawing maps for 2026. "Come next November in Maryland, we will have fair maps."

The majority of Americans are good. We have heart. We have compassion. When we see others struggle, we want to lend a hand.

For too long, we’ve been divided and pitted against each other by those who crave obscene wealth and power.

Let’s change that. One election at a time.

LA: “They took a US citizen father out and left a toddler in the backseat. Two heavily armed border patrol agents got in that car and drove the child and the vehicle away.”

What are we doing?

🔵 This VICTORY right here

So totally EPIC 💙🇺🇲✊🏾✊🏻🐥

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week.

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

BREAKING: Voters kicked 13 MAGA delegates in the Virginia House OUT so far. Democrats are nearing a SUPER MAJORITY.

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Thank you, New York City. Together we made history.

Now let’s get to work.

For the second time in a little over a week, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers reportedly shot someone in Los Angeles, California.

He was shot after getting out of his car to tell ICE agents that children would soon be gathering in that spot for the school bus.

Get in losers we're beating fascism everywhere

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.
