Some personal news — I am beyond excited to be formally launching my own polling firm, Zenith Research! After over a dozen years working in the industry, I wanted to build something on my own — with a fresh, independent, methodologically rigorous & radically transparent approach

Last night, our campaign office in the Bronx was vandalized and we are in the process of cleaning it up. Our office is a hub in the community and we want it to be a safe space for all of our neighbors. In the past few days, we also have received multiple threats on the…
It's very hard to build a durable anti-fascist political coalition when a not insignificant portion of the would-be coalition is seemingly more committed to bad faith arguments and browbeating natural allies than they are to winning + making change. It's simply not sustainable.
Google is free. If you’re saying I voted for military funding, you are lying. Receipts attached. Drag me for my positions all you want, but lying about them doesn’t make you part of the “left.” If you believe neo-nazis are welcome and operating in good faith, you can have them!

New mayoral race text poll sent via a source — some of the questions
I have no dog in this fight, but this “only Somalis backed Omar Fateh” shit is both incorrect and a racist dog whistle (“they” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here). How many Somalis do people think live in Minneapolis, even within the local DFL Party apparatus?

I gotta say if they’re losing the Knights of Columbus in Florida of all places it’s not going well
Sunday PM about 25 Knights on Bikes stopped at entrance of Alligator Alcatraz and prayed a rosary for the detainees. Archdiocese is still waiting for approval to access to provide Mass for detainees
Today I spent 3 hours with Brad Lander and his family, giving them a private tour on Brooklyn’s Muslim, Arab, and South Asian histories. I am so grateful for their deep curiosity and desire to support my work and our communities. Happy Birthday Mr. Comptroller. You’re fam now.
