I really want to believe @corybooker.com’s frustration with Democrats not taking on Trump. But waiting for his rant against Peter Thiel from the floor. Then, maybe I’ll believe thehill.com/homenews/sen...

Great host! Great questions! Thank you!

Excited to see @chrisrabb.bsky.social is in!

Hearing Rep. Chris Rabb speak, I’m reminded of the qualities we hope to see in our leaders. This wasn’t his district—there were no votes to win, no donations to collect. He was simply standing up for what is right—a principle we should expect from all our leaders.

Here's someone writing about Chris Rabb showing up to support immigrant rights.

State Rep. Chris Rabb, an anti-establishment progressive, is running for Dwight Evans’ Congress seat Rabb, who represents Mt. Airy, is jumping into the race to fill the seat of retiring U.S. Rep. Dwight Evans.

Big news, Philly! @reprabb.bsky.social is running for US Congress! Thrilled to see this - I went to college with Chris and love the guy.

How Did Zohran Mamdani Win the NYC Dem Primary? Nomiki Konst Explains It wasn't merely a well-run social media operation and an expansion of the electorate that made the impossible happen.

Unlocked on Substack: I spoke to New Yorker & journalist @nomiki.bsky.social about how @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social defeated Andrew Cuomo.

As she explains, he not only expanded the electorate, but benefited from groundwork laid from progressive activism.

“@chrisrabb comes from the most vote-rich part of the city, he has never lost a race, and is an organizer at heart,” said Kellan White, a political consultant in Philadelphia. “You know he’s gonna put work in. There’s no question he’d knock on every door.” archive.ph/2025.07.08-1...

#NoKingsDay also means #DontRankCuomo

@BilldeBlasio

If Mamdani wins - I'm not saying he will, but he could - Cuomo's sexual harassment thing will lead the story, and the nursing homes beyond that. They are not in my view the primary drivers of anti-Cuomo sentiment. As governor Cuomo went against New York City however possible.

And now he pretends he didn’t know.

Jessica Ramos was right: Andrew Cuomo has dementia

Uh de Blasio?

Because they don’t want to talk about affordability maybe

What? Dude you know why Cuomo went down?

I’m Bluesky dumb. How do I follow here bc I’m all in

I know entirely too much about New York City’s mayoral race.

This is huge. Arizona is leading the way on stopping big money in their primaries! Please join in supporting!

“You drowning, but you got swag”

Imagine the last thing you hear before you drown in the East River being Eric Adams telling you that he's there to save you.

This flew under the radar, but thanks to Trump's EPA cuts, Energy Star could shut down for good.

Energy Star isn't just a sticker on your appliances. It's an important program that saves consumers $40B/year.

So much for all that talk about "efficiency."

L.A. council backs $30 minimum wage for hotels, despite warnings from tourism industry The proposal, billed as the highest minimum wage in the U.S., would take the minimum wage for hotels and LAX workers to $30 by 2028.

It can happen.

Proud of what we stood for in our NYC Public Advocate’s race in 2019, when nay sayers said $30/hr was impossible. We always knew it was what was right.

Good for LA for passing $30/hr! www.latimes.com/california/s...

"They want you to feel defeated.
They want you to give up.
They want you to stop organizing.
That's *how they maintain power*.

We're awake.
We're engaged.
We're mobilized."

NEW CBS poll shows that Americans get that Trump's top priority is helping the wealthy and big corporations. Democrats need to lean into this by slamming the Trump oligarchy and offering policies that help working class Americans:

Well, Donald…if you had taken my class, you would have learned how to not crash the economy and create global chaos…
