The Democratic caucus trying to stop Chuck Schumer from agreeing to a CR with a nationwide abortion ban attached

🎯🎯

The NYT political reporting crew keeps telling us over and over again who they are rooting for and what sorts of politics they want to see win

Completely inexcusable headways (4th train to arrive but 1st F train)

The aesthetics of American fascism are so ass.

I think democrats should push for a thorough review of all Elon Musk govt contracts as part of their 2026-8 portfolio. Why are taxpayers financing the work of a racist near-trillionaire? Leaving that unexamined was one of the biggest failures of the last Dem majority.

lol

Thanks to the Illinois’ massive investment in transit, Chicago has a bright transit future, with the dawn coming next year: —50% increase in every-10-min bus routes to 30 citywide —8-minute midday headways on rail lines —24-hour Orange Line service (Red & Blue already have it)

Who can guess which Midwestern city?

Don't fire workers if you want them to vote for you:

Mary’s muffin top was amazing

Establishment Dems: “We just had a sweeping win proving people want us to fight for them and that we can beat the fascists.” Also Establishment Dems: “Quick, back to capitulating!” What an utterly spineless and embarrassing political party.

So endlessly embarrassing

Without LGBT New Yorkers, Cuomo might’ve won. Mamdani’s genuine and relentless support of trans rights was not only morally correct, but an electoral necessity.

A 34-year-old as a politician: My god he's like a baby. It's like they just elected an infant to be their mayor. A 34-year-old as an athlete: You have to admire the bravery of him attempting that dunk, knowing full well the grim reaper is right behind him.

That body language man 😆 they all know they’re following the Trump Train right off a cliff

*slaps roof* we're gonna build so much housing in vickie paladino's district

If you’re a NY left politician of any persuasion who cares about keeping fascists out of power at any level of govt—get your ass building & operating better transit in these deserts. Cars skew people reactionary—period. And if your name happens to be @governor.ny.gov, start with Long Island.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s so normal and so many people are so weird about him. And it becomes really hard to miss the fact it’s mostly because he’s Muslim

A huge % of Trump 2024 voters thought he would bring back stimulus checks in contrast to the stingy austerity of the 23-24 Biden Administration

This is going to get spun as a "thermostatic shift" chart, but it should be properly interpreted as a "information environment is broken" chart. In 2024, voters didn't know what Trump would do, and so they shifted towards him based on vibes. Now they are finding out, and they hate it.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

That margin, holy shit. If you’re a Democrat who has ever said something like “packing the Supreme Court is too radical for the electorate” this should send an icy chill down your spine The people want blood

Zohran Mamdani: potentially the NYC Streets Mayor of our wildest dreams

Looking at sign-ups at runforwhat.net this morning - rise & shine, time to get on the ballot for 2026!!

i love that mamdani also beat the NYT in this election. like a drum.

really important element of this basically total victory is that it puts the fear of god in republican incumbents and may bring the redistricting push to a total halt

the entire twitter and group chat poisoned elite of American society who decided Trump winning an election by 1.5% heralded a thousand year reich may have miscalculated a bit

Woke 2.0 already rules

Savor this moment, friends. They couldn’t buy their way to a win. They couldn’t racist their way to a win. There are more of us than them, and we fucking beat them. And we can keep beating them.

Mamdani cracks 1M votes, the first NYC mayor to do so since John Lindsay in 1969

Tonight's even more proof the mainstream reporters who are still on Twitter are suffering from a brain problem akin Havana Syndrome that is preventing them from accurately doing their jobs. They are being cooked alive by a snuff-focused apartheid algorithm.

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.

Politicians should probably get on Bluesky to get better in touch with the American electorate.

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.

NYC Streets Mayor of our wildest dreams: incoming ✅

We’re gonna have a hot mayor 😭 I’m emotional

Suck it Andrew Cuomo

All YIMBY ballot measures are currently winning in NYC by 10-point margins at least

Blah blah blah men…Young women are ready to set the country on fire

Virginia state Senator Louise Lucas (a Democrat who is the chamber's president pro tempore) just tweeted this:

Woke 2.0 is gonna be so much meaner (and better)

Head in hands wondering how this could happen to me, the popular president who posted a video of myself shitting on everyone 2 weeks ago

This is why Chuck has NO REASON to come back to the table. Let them twist. If you're coming back with wins this big during a shutdown, the people know where their bread is buttered. Don't throw them a lifeline. These aren't tiny margin wins. They're blowouts.

2 MILLION VOTES: NYC! All before 9 p.m. More of our election coverage can be found here at thecity.nyc

whew, per the Board of Elections, we've hit 2M votes in New York City

You all are going to wish you'd made your peace with Woke 1
