The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless. Remember this.

I feel sad for my Jewish community members who are counting themselves out of this moment of joy and unity because they chose to listen to the fearmongers.

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

Congratulations, Andrew Cuomo! I know how hard you worked for this.

May Tim Curry in 'The Worst Witch' bless you with the confidence to sing improvisational stream of conscious lyrics in a cape. ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN ON HALLOWEEEEEN! 🎃 www.youtube.com/watch?v=K608...

Every church should be doing this, and if your church isn’t, you’re at the wrong church.

The day after the Chinatown raid, New York AG Tish James launches an online portal for the public to submit photos and videos of ICE activity. "We are committed to reviewing these reports and assessing any violations of law," she writes. Portal ag.ny.gov/federal-acti...

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

What keeps New Yorkers up at night are not the right-wing fever dreams of Andrew Cuomo. It's whether or not they can keep living in the city they love. I'm the only candidate on stage tonight with a vision for the future and a plan to bring down costs.

NYC is out in droves. This after yesterday ICE raided Canal Street.

Same.

Cuomo can say Kościuszko but not Mamdani?

If you want a Mayor who tells you everything that he can't do, Andrew Cuomo should be your choice. But if you want a Mayor who will use every tool at their disposal to lower the cost of living, I am the candidate for you.

Tonight, in the final debate of his decades in power or desperately pursuing it, you will hear from Andrew Cuomo the same arrogance, the same entitlement, the same excuses for a broken status quo he's long maintained. New Yorkers are ready for change.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

We're still dealing with the consequences of Andrew Cuomo's "experience."

It would cost roughly $700 million to make the nation's slowest buses fast and free. And it would generate more than double that in economic benefits for our city.

Corruption goes courtside.

OH WOW HE ATE THAT UP!! Go Mamdani go! As a fellow survivor tracking the story of these women who've been harassed and silenced, its SO moving to have a male leader speak up so strongly for these women and use his privilege. That's how you ally right there.

Please share to spread the word. Full article at www.chosenfamilylawcenter.org/gender-markers-faq

Just read the article and saw the photos and all I have to say is that there has to be a reckoning for this.

May her memory be a blessing; may she never thirst.

Interview w our @chosenfamilylaw.bsky.social Sr Legal Director @andyeyeballs.bsky.social on what's going on w X gender markers and international travel. In short, having an X gender marker on your passport will make international travel more difficult, in ways still unclear, but very intentional.

It's probably too much to hope for that the @nytimes.com team will do any self-reflection on this. But please know that with this coverage you are looking at people's lives burning in a fire that you helped start, and writing a contemplative article about how interesting it is that there's a fire.

What responsibility does the Paper of Record, which has been consistently holding up the opinions of people who think that trans people should just stop being trans, take for this? What responsibility do you as a contributor take?

How did the United States become a place where the people at the highest levels of government could promulgate a policy that trans people should just stop being trans if they want to be able to travel, and most of the people living in the country would shrug?

I know that a contributor doesn't have a lot more control over what ends up in the published piece than I do as a person being interviewed. But I really urge you to think about how we got here.

You can read the open letter signed by many of your colleagues in 2023 here, since which time the Times has continued to pour editorial resources into uncritically parroting the talking points of right wing think tanks whose explicit goal is the eradication of "transgenderism." nytletter.com

None of what I said to the reporter got printed, so I'm just going to show you here: For years, the Times has been platforming anti-trans voices and portraying "should trans people be allowed to exist?" as a reasonable debate with experts on both sides.

I was asked for a statement for this @nytimes.com story about X gender markers on passports. My statement is: the story of how anti-trans sentiment became so powerful in the United States over the last year is a story for which the New York Times needs to take responsibility.

This is what solidarity looks like. Together, we will win.

This is exactly the kinda quality human ICE is hiring, this should be the recruitment video.

interesting! wagingnonviolence.org/2025/10/resi...

Republican leaders claim No Kings Day 2.0 is a "hate America" rally. Rubbish. We’re rallying tomorrow because we LOVE America. It's an opportunity for all of us who love this country to express our determination that our nation’s ideals not be crushed by the Trump regime.

“What we’re seeing today in the U.S. is increasingly fascist. MAGA, I believe — and I study fascism, I don’t say this lightly — is a fascist movement.”

Statement of support from historians at Columbia University and Barnard College. Thank you for your solidarity!

I teach a history of antifascism course @ruhistorydept.bsky.social and figured I'd start an ongoing thread this semester to share some insights from course readings and recommend some great works on antifascism. 🧵

HOLY SMOKES!!! That’s gonna leave a mark

#NoKings this Saturday, Oct 18

“I think what they’re doing is backfiring. Our numbers are skyrocketing.“ - @ezralevin.bsky.social on Republicans’ lies about the peaceful No Kings protests There are more RSVPs and events planned for Saturday than there were back in June. Please join us: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Saturday is going to be huge, boisterous and joyful: “It doesn’t matter if you’ve never protested before. This is a place for you if you believe we don’t do kings in this country.” - @ezralevin.bsky.social to @maddow.msnbc.com Please join us on No Kings Day: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

🧵: Last June, more than 5 million Americans joined #NoKings rallies across the country, protesting President Trump's authoritarianism. And this Saturday, with your help, it's going to be even bigger and better.

There might be other options, but I used SongShift to do it - had good reviews. Cost $6/mnth, which I'll use once and then cancel. Cheaper than spotify monthly, and now I'm not sending my music money to ICE.

I've meaning to transfer my playlists off of Spotify for a while, and the ICE ads finally gave me the nudge I needed.

I didn’t think this guy could get any better.

This Sunday, we’re SHREDDING 🎸 Join me (or someone who looks a lot like me) at one of two locations to safely dispose of old bills, bank statements and documents you no longer need. + DJs, family portraits and frozen treats. 12-3pm in Harlem and the Bronx. Details in the video ⬇️
