NYC's largest union—the mighty @DC37nyc—stood with us in the primary when few thought victory was possible. Now they're all in for the general election. Together, we'll deliver a city where the people who keep it running can afford it too. From last week's endorsement:
Nearly two-thirds of young Americans view socialism favorably, according to a 2025 YouGov/CATO poll. That's up from 51% in 2019.

Vice Chair of the DNC takes a swing at Cuomo 👇
If they finally remove this evil witch from city council @HotGirls4Zohran will throw a block party to celebrate and I’m being serious
Thank you to @politico for publishing, in full, the cease and desist letter my lawyers sent to New York Councilwoman Vickie Paladino and Speaker Adrienne Adams as part of their coverage today: politico.com/f/?id=00000198…
I am deeply saddened to learn of the loss of life and injury caused by the military attack on the Holy Family Catholic Church in #Gaza. I assure the parish community of my spiritual closeness. I commend the souls of the deceased to the loving mercy of Almighty God, and pray for…
A gentle reminder: forced automobile dependence is a public health scourge. It should be easy to walk down the street to pick up your burrito and have a nice chat with the guy who made it. The existence of ubiquitous delivery is the fruit of cities designed for cars, not people.
Yes, hiring a private 2.5 ton vehicle and chauffeur for your burrito IS unsustainable in every possible way.
$30 in fees just to get delivery in NYC. That feels unsustainable.
Wait what?? Adelita was the Bernie and AOC backed candidate. The candidate who stood on the stage at their very well-attended Fight Oligarchy rally in Tuscon earlier this year
"Mamdani momentum withered in the deserts of southern Arizona on Tuesday night." @jackhealyNYT on Adelita Grijalva's convincing win in Tucson against the upstarts who called for a new face and name to succeed Raul Grijalva in the House. nytimes.com/2025/07/15/us/…
Bernie may be the great Senator from Vermont but he’s Brooklyn through and through. An absolute honor to meet with one of my heroes and the champion for working people across our country, @BernieSanders.
Had a great meeting with @ZohranKMamdani and am deeply impressed by the grassroots campaign he is running. The Oligarchs are prepared to undermine democracy & spend tens of millions to buy the election for his opponents. We will not allow that to happen. Stand with Zohran.
let's fight to reclaim summer vacation -- and the places that make it beautiful!

Zohran Mamdani’s win in New York City’s mayoral primary last month has resulted in absolute meltdowns from billionaires, genocide supporters, and other assorted defenders of the status quo. Let’s pause for a moment to enjoy them. jacobin.com/2025/07/mamdan…
Lol this grade-school move from @CoryBooker is almost beyond belief
In a just world, every one of these Democratic senators would be primaried - especially the hypocritical Cory Booker who is wisely trying to hide his face in this picture. (Netanyahu is wanted by the ICC, a far right authoritarian, and kills innocent Palestinians on a daily…
1) He's never said it 2) can someone help James Carville buy clothes from the adults section
James Carville warns Mamdani to keep ‘globalize the intifada’ phrase ‘out your mouth’ trib.al/2gATY4b
Lander says one of the ICE agents who arrested him told him his wife wanted him to quit his job but he wasn't sure because he needed to pay off his mortgage. The other one asked what Mamdani was like in person and said he was considering ranking him.
On the new episode of On the Nose, @PeterBeinart talks to @bradlander about his principled cross-endorsement of Zohran Mamdani, and the line between “fighters and folders” in the Democratic Party.
"While Zohran had this inspiring heart of New York campaign, we were harnessing a different part of being a New Yorker which is being a huge hater... and harnessed the renewable energy that is New York’s desire to hate some asshole." nygroove.nyc/dream-campaign…
Just imagine: Schumer and Jeffries see no value in making this a political issue.
