There are many lessons to draw from Zohran's campaign and this primary, but by far the most important one is that robust organization is what makes the impossible possible.
If you don't already have an organizational home, then may Z's win make the difference in finally motivating you to find one.

Surprisingly effective things Zohran Mamdani ran on:
-free buses
-rent freeze
-halal cart for $8 instead of $10
-taxing the 1%
-no cost childcare
-city-owned grocery stores
-a Department Of Community Safety for mental health programs and crisis response
-building affordable housing
-why Cuomo sucks

whatβs funny is that if pro-cuomo centrist democrats were less myopic they might see that mamdani was running the kind of campaign that could help rebuild the party brand β accessible with an outsider persona and a focus on βkitchen tableβ issues.

Today, the Supreme Court upheld Tennesseeβs ban on gender-affirming care for trans youth in Skrmetti v. United States.
This is a direct attack on our trans siblings and sets a chilling precedent for future assaults on LGBTQ+ rights.

Surrounded by sheriffs & local cops, President Trump signed an Executive Order Monday asking Attorney General Pam Bondi and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth to determine how the military can be best used in local law enforcement operations to fight crime. Martial law?

Hmm I wonder what the long term strategy is behind replacing birth certificates, over which the federal government has no control at all, with passports, over which the Executive Branch has nearly exclusive control, as a foundational document for citizenship and voting.

Zionist attacks on higher ed embolden the Right and go hand-in-hand with Trump/Musk's plans to dismantle the education system. Students like Mahmoud Khalil calling for justice in Palestine are the frontline of rights to speech and protest.
