Why?

In so many ways, the vibrancy of our city can be judged by the health of our bodegas.
Thatβs why Iβm so proud to be in the Bronx this morning to accept the endorsement of the United Bodegas of America.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem. 
Itβs corporate greed. Itβs an unwillingness to pay a living wage.
When did making kids go hungry become a Christian value?

If you're a New Yorker, I urge you to vote for Zohran Mamdani β the only candidate who will stand up to the oligarchy and fight for working people.
Listen to his inspiring words from primary night.
A Republican president has decided he wants to go to war with Venezuela and is now creating the pretext to justify it, just like Bush did with Iraq. 
Then it was WMDs, now it is drugs. 
Except even Bush still at least went to Congress for a vote. 
King Donald doesnβt bother.
In a nearly illiterate editorial, WaPo defends Trump's ballroom project, without revealing the fact that the paper's owner, Jeff Bezos, is a principal funder of the project. Shameful conduct all around. bsky.app/profile/bgru...

Imagine being 17, your little brother by your side, begging to speak to your dad as heβs dragged away. You may never see him again. And this is every day. Soul shattering, nightmarish stuff, never to be forgiven.
