While a number of political leaders have pledged support for Mamdani, a significant faction is in full panic at the idea of a young Muslim democratic socialist taking control of City Hall without its help or permission. My latest in @nymag.com

As always, the crystal clarity we need, right when we most need it. Thank you @mashagessen.bsky.social

Congratulations to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social on a bold, hard-fought win. New Yorkers want leaders who challenge the status quo. I look forward to working with him to make our city more affordable, equitable, and just—for everyone who calls it home.

what’s funny is that if pro-cuomo centrist democrats were less myopic they might see that mamdani was running the kind of campaign that could help rebuild the party brand — accessible with an outsider persona and a focus on “kitchen table” issues.

The L.A. protesters have really gone too far this time… 🌼

Yes here we are again, @indvsblharlem.bsky.social stomping for @nywfp.bsky.social and the excellent #RankTheSlate candidates for mayor. It’s a month to the primary, 3 weeks till early voting. Get your dance cards ready for these 4 — +1 more? (But #NoMoCuomo!)

I’m on the Senate floor right now urging my colleagues to vote no on the GENIUS Act. There is no excuse for Congress to pass a crypto bill that will turbocharge Trump’s corruption and undermine national security, consumer protection, and our financial stability.

Hitting the Columbia greenmarket bright and early with @indvsblharlem.bsky.social for @nywfp.bsky.social and #RankTheSlate! Lots of great energy (but not for C***o)!

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social is right. The GENIUS Act, without serious fixes, rubber-stamps the President’s corruption. Democrats should not be helping the President cash in.

Too many New Yorkers are under the impression that Cuomo would stand up to Trump because he, too, is a blustering, abusive person. But in reality, Cuomo is being backed by Trump donors. Trump recently said he likes him. Cuomo has avoided criticizing Trump or his authoritarian takeover.

Fantastic morning talking to voters at the Morningside Park Greenmarket about the @workingfamilies.org mayoral slate with fellow @indvsblharlem.bsky.social members. Lots of interest in #RankTheVote and lots of anti-Cuomo sentiment!

Every administration official should be grilled like this, every time. Think like you're creating a record for future Nuremberg Trials. youtu.be/EwZWCk1ytPU?...

Hey New Yorkers, Montana (of all places) has a reverse IDC! Some of us were just talking about how we need this in Congress. www.hcn.org/articles/a-n... @juliegoldberg.bsky.social @beckela.bsky.social @gabriellers.bsky.social @inwoodactivist.bsky.social

My @indvsblharlem.bsky.social friends and I had a great time today talking to Harlem voters about the upcoming NYC mayor’s race, #RankedChoiceVoting and the @workingfamilies.org slate. Oh and #DontRankCuomo!

From Abby’s Bakery in Los Fresnos to the Australian MMA coach to the El Salvador gulag, we see the cruelty, stupidity & lawlessness of Trump’s war on immigrants. The immigration issue can’t be ducked. It’s the beating heart of Trumpism. Confronting Trumpism means defending immigrants & immigration.

Sackets Harbor, NY is so small that there’s one pre k-12 school with 475 students. Three of those students were disappeared by ICE. Here is a statement published today by school principal Jaime Cook:

With tariffs, Trump is trading a strong economy for one run on loyalty and retribution. Tariffs scale his weaponization of government across the entire economy, with waivers for loyalists. But history shows that an economy run on favors is ultimately a poor one. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Thank you @booker.senate.gov. Now let us all go get in good trouble.

Republicans in the Senate voted tonight while no one is watching to fatten Wall Street profits by jacking up overdraft fees on you. So much for lowering costs.

“…what (Schumer) did is aid this administration…to dismantle our government…” Empire State Indivisible Co-leader Shannon Stagman on Inside City Hall lays out why Senator Schumer’s support of the GOP spending bill is a “betrayal” & why we call on him to step aside as U.S. Senate Minority Leader. ⏬

Holy shit. Republican Harriet Hagemen got torn apart at a town hall in Wyoming last night. In a state that voted for Trump by 46 points. She tried defending DOGE and it went as well as you’d imagine. “Deport Elon, Deport Elon!” Watch to the end…

Today we said NO CUTS! NO CUTS to Medicaid. NO CUTS to SNAP. NO CUTS to healthcare. NO CUTS to education. NO CUTS to housing. NO CUTS to USAID NO CUTS to disability benefits. NO CUTS to child care. NO CUTS to workers. NO CUTS to our communities! And certainly NO TAX CUTS for billionaires!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE March 16, 2025 Empire State Indivisible calls on Senator Chuck Schumer to step aside as Minority Leader Cc: @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social @indivisible.org 1/

Musk has now poured $8.3 million into buying the tie-breaking Wisconsin Supreme Court seat for Brad Schimel. That is vastly more than any other single donor—to eliminate a state-level check on his and Trump's power. Help us fight back and elect Susan Crawford: PeopleVMusk.com

🚀JOIN US FOR OUR NEXT JOINT MEETING! With Indivisible Harlem, Inwood Indivisible & Markers for Democracy. On Monday, March 31st at 7pm on zoom. We hope to see you. www.mobilize.us/indivisibleh...

On Monday, our joint meeting w/ Indivisible Harlem, Inwood Indivisible & Markers for Democracy was packed. We don’t need to hear trump’s speech to know that we must hold our elected leaders to account to protect our communities from his agenda. Here’s a🧵of how you can join us to hold to account!

In recalling all the abusive behavior, please don't sleep on the fact that Cuomo was ALSO corrupt, dishonest and bad at his job!

Please don't say that no one is doing anything. We're waiting for @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov to catch up with their constituents.
