Over the next few weeks, millions of Americans are going to receive notices that their healthcare costs are set to explode in 2026. Many more will log onto online insurance marketplaces only to find that they’ve been priced out of the coverage they rely on.

BREAKING: Representative Ro Khanna is introducing legislation to ban the president, his family, members of Congress, and all elected officials from trading crypto or stocks.

ROLLING STONE: “The current Congress has dropped the pretense of public service altogether… Congress enjoys ultraluxe health care as it fights to gut yours.”

Help slow down ICE’s terror. Talk to local businesses about putting up signage to protect employees from ICE raids and show solidarity with immigrant communities: act.indivisible.org/signup/signs...

Good evening from Queens.

New York is not for sale.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Trump bought the Argentina election by threatening to withhold U.S. funds unless his preferred candidate won. We can’t let the same playbook unfold here next week. Trump and his administration have already been making threats about the upcoming U.S. elections, and the warning signs are clear.

Bernie, Zohran and AOC on stage.

Thank you, New York City.

Now let’s win.

This morning we dropped off 5,000+ petition signatures in Springfield, nearly 5x what we needed to get on the ballot.

IL-09 is ready for change, and we couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you.

See you on the ballot on March 17.

Heave ho!

Canada was caught, red handed, putting up a fraudulent advertisement on Ronald Reagan’s Speech on Tariffs. The Reagan Foundation said that they, “created an ad campaign using selective audio and video of President Ronald Reagan. The ad misrepresents the Presidential Radio Address,” and “did not seek nor receive permission to use and edit the remarks. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute is reviewing its legal options in this matter.” The sole purpose of this FRAUD was Canada’s hope that the United States Supreme Court will come to their “rescue” on Tariffs that they have used for years to hurt the United States. Now the United States is able to defend itself against high and overbearing Canadian Tariffs (and those from the rest of the World as well!). Ronald Reagan LOVED Tariffs for purposes of National Security and the Economy, but Canada said he didn’t! Their Advertisement was to be taken down, IMMEDIATELY, but they let it run last night during the World Series, knowing that it was a FRAUD. Because of their serious misrepresentation of the facts, and hostile act, I am increasing the Tariff on Canada by 10% over and above what they are paying now. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

The president got his feelings hurt, so we're doing 10% more tariffs on Canada. Joke of an administration.

Glass storefront door in Brighton Park, with sign in English and Spanish, reading: ATTENTION ICE/CBP AGENTS STOP YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED ENTRANCE INTO THIS BUSINESS WITHOUT A VALID JUDICIAL WARRANT ATENCION AGENTES DE ICE/CBP STOP NO SE LE PERMITE LA ENTRADA A ESTE NEGOCIO SIN UNA ORDEN JUDICIAL VALIDA

Glass storefront door with sign reading: PRIVATE PROPERTY NO ICE YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO ENTER NON-PUBLIC AREAS OF THIS SPACE WITHOUT A VALID JUDICIAL WARRANT SIGNED BY A FEDERAL JUDGE and a second sign: PLEASE USE DOOR ON 47TH ST. BACK OF THE YARDS

signs like these are up all over Chicago cafes and storefronts (here, cafes in Brighton Park and Back of the Yards) warning ICE not to enter without a judicial warrant

Was obsessed with TNG as a child and became a lifelong sci Fi fan!

Thank you, Chicago.

Seems like an important detail

The energy we need is this suburban dad standing out in the street -- barefoot with Blackhawks pajama pants on -- screaming at the masked goons to get the fuck out of their neighborhood.

YouTube video by Zohran Mamdani for NYC My Message to Muslim New Yorkers — and Everyone Who Calls This City Home.

The dream of every Muslim is simply to be treated the same as any other New Yorker.

And yet, for too long, we have been told to ask for less than that, and endure hatred and bigotry in the shadows.

No more.

one of my favorite things about spiel is randomly running into my friends hiii it's @emmalarkins.bsky.social!!

When Tish James walks into a courthouse tomorrow — the target of a political prosecution demanded by a President obsessed with revenge — she does not walk in alone.

New York has her back.

Grateful to Governor Hochul for bringing us together tonight.

This just…. I…Steve please

A middle finger to erasure.

More of this, please. Now do Black Lives Matter!

It would cost roughly $700 million to make the nation's slowest buses fast and free.

And it would generate more than double that in economic benefits for our city.

In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government.

She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her.

So I confronted him.

Threads post from julieceye At my local Home Depot today in Evanston, IL. They abducted 5 people in my immediate area.

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

Hundreds of people protesting ICE in downtown manhattan right now. Reads and Broadway. NYPD cops in riot gear on scene.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

Asking earnestly, how is the ballroom project at all legal under the Anti Deficiency Act?

The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year.

In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.
