A headline from NBC News: Unions privately urge Chuck Schumer and Democratic leaders to stay out of Maine's Senate primary Subheadline: At least three pro-Graham Platner unions are pushing Democratic leaders to stop supporting Gov. Janet Mills in the competitive Senate race.

“Union leaders in recent days have urged Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee to end their support for Gov. Janet Mills in Maine’s Senate primary, pointing to what they see as her weaker record with labor.”

“The party is overdue for a healthy, honest primary…without party leaders putting their thumbs on the scales…
Democrats need to understand that the country is seeking leadership and that they have an opportunity to advertise that they’re a diverse party with lots of ideas.”

Of course the right wing is losing their minds over Bad Bunny & @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social -They both want to tax the rich!

That’s why Congress must #AbolishAct22’s tax evasion scheme that endangers PR and NYC.

Spoke with @andyreports about the @nynurses strikes that in the space of their first day have become the largest such protest in NYC history.

Proudly joined the picket all morning.

Thousands of nurses go on strike in New York City Nurses were joined by elected leaders, including the city’s new mayor, Zohran Mamdani, as contract negotiations failed.

“You can’t divorce this from the experience of COVID…[it] tested our healthcare system…tested nurses in particular. They last went on strike in ‘23 and continue to face chronic understaffing, leaving them feeling overextended” - @lindseyboylan.bsky.social

Now that we live in Zohranstan, can @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social
work on getting right wing Newsmax out of our beloved @nyctaxi.bsky.socia ?

Russia propped up Venezuela. Wagner are flown there when there's unrest. Will there be Russian/US joint military operations to occupy the country? Did Putin give Venezuela, with the world's largest oil reserves, to the US in exchange for Ukraine, a former occupied crown jewel of the Russian empire?

Whatever you think of Maduro, Trump’s openly admitted act of war is flagrantly unconstitutional and Maduro is now headed to NY.

Every New York lawmaker should be outside that building staging a fit.

This is a new New York. We are the strongest source of power against Trump.

My pals and I on line for Inauguration kept getting stopped by folks saying “what’s this line for?”
The new cronut bagel all over Instagram. Pop-up Taylor Swift concert. Bad Bunny’s new sneakers. Health care renewal. We’re voting. And my absolute favorite: Zohran’s bread lines.

Heartbroken to hear that the great, kind, generous Howie Klein has passed away. He was behind so many movements and incredible progressive wins, and always early with thoughtful advice and support. We lost a good one. ❤️💔

Just correcting the record. It’s the internet and wanted to clarify how this works as others see this and it impacts my work. Happy holidays

Hi there - I don’t know what that means. I’m his documentarian. I follow him around. I think most doc filmmakers who have exclusivity to their subjects are on decent terms with them.

Hoping to alchemize public pain into lessons in worthiness for other women. Your voice, your time and your energy are valuable and yours to control.

Grateful to @ejdickson.bsky.social for the space and grace in this piece. And to everyone who has been so loving and supportive.

I talked to Nomiki Konst for @thecut.com about her split from former NYC mayor Bill De Blasio, who publicly cheated on her with the mayor of south Tucson. Nomiki says she and BDB talked about having a baby, and the day he told her he cheated they did a round of IVF. www.thecut.com/article/nomi...

Democrats keep chasing the Texas white whale - pouring hundreds of millions into Senate races they can’t seem to win. Now Jasmine Crockett’s entry has the party split and Republicans giddy. Is this finally the real deal… or just another expensive mirage? @nomiki.bsky.social

Ritchie Torres gets a primary and suddenly he’s praising Mamdani.

Ritchie Torres refused to endorse Zohran, and even went as far as to abandon his gubernatorial hopes if Zohran won.

Vote Michael Blake in the primary and get this AIPAC puppet out of office

Ryan Grim @ryangrim As previewed in Drop Site Daily this morning, Michael Blake is running a credible challenge to Ritchie Torres. Last night I got to see him meet @AdamFriedland whose Torres interview was…something

I am running for Congress because the people of The Bronx deserve better than Ritchie Torres.

It’s a beautiful day for a political revolution, NYC! ☀️Let’s win this! @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social!!!

I live in NYC - haven’t moved!

For all the money in the world flowing into the Cuomo camp and his supportive IEs, there seems to be little campaigning and cheap AI ads, which makes me wonder why hasn’t the press asked who is gettin all that money on his shockingly lean campaign?

YES

Ice out of ny. Stop the deportations! Wednesday Oct 22 6pm foley square.

New Yorkers look out for New Yorkers.

Tonight. Foley Square. 6pm.

Happy birthday @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

There seems to be a concerted, coordinated effort from the White House and various governmental agencies to join Bluesky en masse prior to the "No Kings" protest and flood the zone.

A reminder that the Trump admin is monitoring social media platforms to find excuses to revoke visas:

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.

I can’t not believe how hard it is to sleep when you’re watching your country, be dismantled by the dumbest people.

You know what they say: a man obsessed with size is clearly overcompensating for his lack of………….
support from working people.
