ILL BE THERE

Do you miss knocking doors? Well, we have some good news—we’re *SO* back THIS SATURDAY, December 6th! 💥 Join us in Astoria for our big canvassing launch and help build this movement. 💪🚪

No Contract, No Coffee! 🚫☕️ Honored to stand with @sbworkersunited.org baristas in their fight for a fair contract with living wages and safe staffing. It’s unconscionable that Starbucks continues to stall negotiations. Support workers, no Starbucks until contract! ✊🏽

Thanks to your overwhelming support, we unlocked $72,000 of public matching funds in less than a week! 🔥 Now the real sprint through this special election begins. 🏃🏽

I’m extremely proud to announce that eight @socialists.nyc Socialists in Office have endorsed our campaign! I’ll be ready on Day One to work alongside these working-class champions to deliver an affordable New York and protect our neighborhoods from the rising tide of fascism.

We're so proud of what we've accomplished in less than a week! 💸 $131k raised 💸 600+ contributions 💸 $67 average donation Our donors aren't big corporations or real estate. They’re teachers, baristas, nurses & working parents, the very people who make Queens run. THANK YOU.

I’m thinking back to when I first joined @socialists.nyc in 2018 & felt like my life was in a pretty different place than lots of the younger folks I was organizing with. We’ve matured in the most wonderful way. This is a movement that will last for generations. Join us! @comradeswkids.bsky.social

“This is the most kid-friendly political event I’ve ever been to!” 🥹 This is what our campaign is about: centering working families and our babies' future. Thank you to the 100+ neighbors who joined us yesterday in Astoria for our first event & helped us raise over $7.4k! ✊🏽❤️

See you all today at the first event of our campaign in Astoria! RSVP or donate if you can't make it: secure.actblue.com/donate/diana...

TOMORROW: Join us from 1-4pm in Astoria for the first event of our campaign! Light appetizers will be served, and kids and families are welcome.

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city. We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

I stand in solidarity with our trans siblings not just when it’s popular, not just when it’s politically safe, but always. My advocacy and commitment to trans rights, dignity, and freedom is unwavering. Solidarity forever. 🏳️‍⚧️

DAY ONE 🔥 📈 $33,153.36 raised ✊🏽 475 individual contributions 💸 Average contribution: $69.80 🙅🏽‍♀️ $0 corporate money THANK YOU! Queens is ready to fight for dignity for working families and against fascism. And we’re ready to meet the moment!

Our campaign launch has exceeded our expectations! We surpassed our Day One fundraising goal and have been met with a huge amount of support! THANK YOU. 🔥 A new world is not only possible; Queens has shown us she is on her way.

My name is Diana Moreno. I’m a Queens mom, an immigrant organizer, and a proud democratic socialist with @socialists.nyc. I’m running to replace @ZohranKMamdani.bsky.social in the Assembly in the upcoming special election to deliver on his affordability agenda and fight the rising tide of fascism.

75% for AD-75! 🎉 Thank you to every @socialists.nyc member who voted to endorse our potential run. A true honor to know I have the backing and support of fellow democratic socialists, and to share this with @dianamor.bsky.social and Aber Kawas! Now, onward to our branch forum!

Deeply grateful for my political home, @socialists.nyc 🌹 Thank you for the opportunity to serve this beautiful movement for dignity and justice for working people.

So every freelancer you know is going to lose their insurance or be bankrupted by premiums because Schumer is an invertebrate

Today’s Astoria Victory Walk was our way to follow our mayor-elect’s advice on election night: Breathe this in. 😌 This movement has always been fueled by something so much more powerful than the far-right’s fear, division, and hate— We have love, joy, and community! ❤️ The work continues. 🫡

She said this in response to my twitter post. I will never apologize for considering Mahmoud Khalil my hero.

Now that the election is done, I thought it would be nice to share this clip from the field launch back in January. What eventually became a field op with 104,000 people started with about 200. For me, it's a reminder that most great things start small—and that what makes them big is organization.

ourtime.nyc time to keep the pressure on for Zohran’s Affordable Agenda.

In June 2020, I went to cast my vote for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for Assembly. Those were scary and uncertain times, but there he was, outside my polling site working for every vote. That’s Zohran. He takes nothing for granted. Be like Z, work until the end to make history! 🔥✊🏽

Just met @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social’s son at our Astoria canvass launch! @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social ’s campaign is part of an international movement to win dignity for the working class. ✊🏽❤️‍🔥

New York is a-changin'.

It is so wild to see the playground where I take my kid get swarmed with reporters and supporters to watch @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social give his closing argument ahead of election day. We're witnessing history❤️‍🔥

NYC-DSA is casually running a citywide field operation with 100,000+ volunteers and is going to knock 200,000 doors tomorrow to elect the next socialist mayor of the largest city in the country Anything and everything is possible 🌹

Astoria always shows up for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social 🥲 We often start our canvasses by saying “Thanks for giving up your weekend to be here.” But we’re not giving anything up! In fact, we’re gaining so much— community, friendship, and a tangible sense of hope. Let’s win this ❤️‍🔥✊🏽

Super excited for Diana running! I’ve been organizing with her for years made a little video about her deciding to run

Some personal news: I’m preparing to run for Zohran’s Assembly seat. As a Queens mom, an immigrant organizer, and a democratic socialist, I’m ready to fight for the working people of Queens! LET’S WIN THIS!🔥 (DM me for volunteer/ donation form ✊🏽) www.cityandstateny.com/politics/202...

Zohran’s mom— the accomplished filmmaker Mira Nair— is an honorary Comrade w/ Kid! Thanks for raising the future mayor of NYC to fight for working families ❤️ Be like Zohran’s mom, sign up to canvass here: zohranfornyc.com/events

We are in the “Ms. Rachel is Hamas” stage of Israel’s genocide insanity. Dear God, just uplifting the suffering of Palestinian children will get you attacked by these monsters. Unreal.

Morally bankrupt genocide apologists have reached a new low by going after the beloved Ms Rachel. Why? She has the moral courage to humanize Palestinian children! We stand in unwavering solidarity with Mrs. Rachel and her message of love and justice for ALL children. 👶🏿👧🏾🧒🏽👦🏻

Outside of Eric Adams, no single elected official has done more damage to NYC than New York’s #1 Nepo Baby, Andrew Cuomo. Here’s the proof 🧵

While our attention is captured by the Adams corruption scandal, the cost of living crisis grinds on. A report released by 5Boro Institute yesterday found a staggering 61% of New Yorkers say it's becoming difficult to meet their basic needs. Half are considering leaving NYC.

Eric Adams sold out our children and working families to Trump to keep his own corrupt ass out of jail. This is ruling class solidarity. We need working class solidarity. Join DSA: socialists.nyc/join

One concrete thing everybody can do to support federal workers is participate in (and spread the word about) the February 19 Save Our Services day of action bit.ly/SOSaction

Hard to exaggerate the stakes: If large numbers of unions, workers, and activists stand up in solidarity with federal workers, Musk can be isolated and defeated But if they don't, the immediate future for all our movements is looking pretty bleak

Trump is testing the waters with Musk’s coup If there’s only mild resistance when he attacks a big powerful opponent (federal unions), this’ll encourage further power grabs & even harder attacks vs those w/ fewer resources: immigrants, trans people, Palestine activists, leftists

Non-union workers, the fight of federal workers is also your fight Not only do good union jobs raise the bar for all bosses, but if Musk can terrorize federal employees into submission, your boss can try to do the same: intimidation, layoffs, + increased workloads for less pay
