Dear Dems: this is what we want. This is who we want. Listen to us.

To every Democratic Party consultant, candidate, staffer, and operative I have ever said “money doesn’t vote” to, I would like to reiterate…MONEY DOESNT VOTE.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo.

It’s cowardice.

Ah yes, the Secretary of Education would like to *learn* about one of the worst racial massacres in U.S. history. Inspiring stuff.

An ACAB street art piece. There are three pig heads in a row with text above and below them. They are depicted wearing green gaiter masks. The middle one has on an ICE baseball cap. The text reads "you can cover your faces. We can still tell you're pigs." Pigs is emphasized with red paint that is dripping down the wall to mimic blood.

Really poignant piece of street art from artist TopZ out of Seattle!

The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy but I still like seeing them fight

Moooood

"Yes, Cuomo is awful, but I have some policy differences with the progressives, so this is hard."

This is not hard. What you do is, you set aside your precious little checklist, and YOU DON'T VOTE FOR THE AWFUL PERSON.

THIS THIS THIS THIS

Why did Congressional Republicans jam through an unpopular budget with the largest Medicaid cuts in history?

It could be because nearly 70% of them would financially benefit from the bill's extension of Trump's tax cuts for the rich.

Reverse Robin Hood.

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life.

Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever.

Our problem isn't a lack of resources.

Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

Trump says Republicans should "probably not" increase taxes on the rich in their forthcoming tax bill.

Meanwhile, his tariffs will hit poor and working-class Americans the hardest.

"Party of the working class."

Your Mother’s Day weekend reminder that the so-called “party of family values” has historically blocked:

-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Expanded Child Tax Credit
-Programs to support reproductive health

Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

This is the right approach — speak to them as you would an especially stupid child, spell out their crimes and your contempt clearly.

34 time convicted felon of a President throwing a 92 million dollar vanity parade the same moment he and the GOP tell us all we need to sacrifice and suffer.

You know that Twilight Zone episode where the kid has amazing psychic powers and can make people disappear with his mind and the entire town is hostage to him and has to cater to his every whim? That’s us right now.

Luigi Mangione in court.

Resistence is NOT futile

The Trump regime is working to deter dissent.

Anyone who goes against Trump could end up on a target list.

This is having a chilling effect on five major pillars of society — universities, science, the media, the law, and the arts.

It's straight out of the fascist playbook.

Closing rural post offices will do the same thing that closing rural schools has done: Empty out rural towns.

Why? To sell off farmland for rock bottom prices to the oligarchs. Water and mineral rights and CAFOs polluting with impunity.

It’s been the plan for decades.

Overdraft fees are illogical and hurt poor people.

What do you mean you OWE money because you have NO money?!

The only ones winning here are the banks.

This is anti-working class.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.
