Universal childcare is on the ballot this November — but you don't need to wait to take action.

Sign the @ny4childcare.bsky.social petition below calling for full-day care for NYC two-year-olds.

Easily top five bootleg merch.

Today I'm so honored to earn the endorsement of @drichardsqns.bsky.social, who fights for the world's borough every day.

We recently rode the Q4 in Jamaica, one of the five bus lines made free in our fare free bus pilot. Ridership jumped 30%, and everyone's commute got a little bit easier.

Another convention in the books! Thank you to all our delegates, alternates, volunteers, and supporters for their hard work and organizing this past weekend.

Congratulations to our new NPC members, Christian, Clayton, Jeremy, and Katie!

WU-TANG FOREVER 👐🏽

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.

But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.

See you soon, NYC.

mamdani videos:

- quick cuts
- many locations
- joyful interactions

cuomo videos:

- long, static shot in one location
- "HR has asked me to read the following statement" energy
- meeting regular people but it's like if billy on the street was hosted by emperor palpatine

Seriously. He’s so out of tune with NY politics. It’s unbelievable.

Saying “no one wants the responsibility” to run the subways and buses is fucking CRAZY. Guy is talking about the mass transit system like it’s 2018 and he was in charge of it (when it really did have some problems)

Are you absolutely fucking kidding me?

I was given an ultimatum.

Every week, we share an action you can take to put Kids Over Cars. This week:

Zohran’s been a champion of “fast + free buses” and street safety—now he’ll need backup. Want to brainstorm how parents can help? 📩 🗽🚸 email us at KidsOverCarsNYC@gmail.com

Cars are making NYC dangerous + unlivable for kids. Over 100 children have been killed by cars since 2014—and the ones who survive face asthma, climate pollution, and limited space to play.

We’re done. We’re building a city that puts Kids Over Cars. Join us!

I love being a socialist parent.

Power to the parents

@socialists.nyc powered @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social 's victory. Now, we’re organizing for universal childcare, fully funded public schools, and safe streets for our kids. Join us for a mass call to connect with other parents and get involved in building a city that puts families first.

Shooting our videos is a little bit different now.

Every new "bombshell" on Mamdani is obviously "bitch eating crackers" material - it seems like a silver bullet slam dunk if you already hate him but for everyone else it's like "what is your problem man"

I’m sorry, “yes we sourced a story using stolen personal data about a nonwhite politician brokered by a neonazi BUT the story illuminates the complex nature of racial identity” does not pass the laugh test

First tweet in thread: "As the @nytimes assistant managing editor for Standards and Trust, I’ve received reader feedback regarding our reporting on Zohran Mamdani’s 2009 application to Columbia University. To provide context on how the reporting came together, I wanted to share some information:" click through for full thread --> https://x.com/patrickhealynyt/status/1941262786006483418

NYT: "We will continue to fabricate scandals about socialists, sourced from anonymous Nazis, until fascism is the law of the land."

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

one of the stranger phenomena in American life is that hate is supposed to flow in one direction (rural people get to hate urban people, Republicans get to hate Democrats) and if the hate goes the other way people pretend as if this is very upsetting.

They did a "will this hurt a candidate we don't like" analysis and were unprepared for the backlash they got

Does it…illuminate the thinking and background of a major mayoral candidate? Does it actually do that?

The thread is pure deflection and evasion. Healy is really trying to claim that there's no problem with how they gave the Nazi pseudonymous cover because readers could just Google the pseudonym themselves to find out he's a Nazi—he calls this giving readers "context" and "a way to learn more."

It's bad enough to publish the hit piece but this whole dishonest "who, me? We were just trying to enlighten readers about his fascinating background!" shit is so dishonest and insulting to our intelligence.

one way you can tell he’s lying is that the story was sold with a hard news headline as opposed to the poncy “From Kampala to Queens, Mamdani navigates a complex identity” feature hed it would have gotten if it was actually about the decisions “people with overlapping identities wrestle with”
