Trump's war has wiped out an entire year and a half of wage growth

When these people insist the mere presence of people unlike them is an attack on them, their country, or their rights, this is exactly the outcome they are seeking, and disappointment among far right Trumpists is largely that he failed to produce events like this here. www.yahoo.com/news/us/arti...

This is the message I just sent to the NYC Mayor's Office. Fascism's strength depends on institutional pillars of support. Currently, our own state or city governments are functioning as pillars on this matter through their silence, passivity, and complicity. We must tell them that is unacceptable.

No billionaire works harder than the people working 2 jobs to make rent and afford groceries right now.

John Mark Rozendaal was playing his cello outside Delaney Hall on Fri night—after organizers asked musicians to come—when state police descended in riot gear. He said the police threw his cello to the side and removed his mask, exposing him to teargas. The moment, caught on livestream, went viral.

I knocked doors for Darializa in Inwood & Washington Heights today to share the news about Mayor Mamdani’s endorsement of her. Uptown is ready to abolish ICE, take on Trump, and invest in “babies not bombs!”

Would be a good time to make the UI system a bit better, even *if* we don't see spikes in unemployment.

With every escalation on the outside, just imagine what's happening inside Delaney where no cameras or oversight is being allowed. We need congressional oversight, we need medical professionals allowed inside, and we need the hunger strikers' demands met.

If companies can’t convince consumers to wear spy devices in the form of pendants and glasses, then they will force workers to wear them in the form of body cams.

This is delightful! Let’s not only provide free childcare to 2-year-olds but have fun creating jingles to promote it. Fellow New Yorkers, listen up and vote for your favorite. I ❤️ NYC www.nyc.gov/content/jing...

NEW: A lot of bad has happened to American science over the last year but nothing comes even close to what’s about to happen if we don’t speak out in opposition to the OMB rule changes and I hope @aaas-socsci.bsky.social @apsphysics.bsky.social and others will launch public campaigns about this. 🧪🔭⚛️

FRI @ NOON: Join us at @governor.ny.gov's NYC office to demand she pass #NY4ALL ASAP. ICE violence at #DelaneyHall is only the latest proof NYers can not be safe as long as NY cops can collude with ICE -- the #1 way NYers get abducted. #IMMIGRANTJUSTICE Join us: www.mobilize.us/nycindivisib...

These people are captives of a concentration camp fighting back against their heavily armed captors with only their bodies. Their heroism is extraordinary. Thank you to all of the protesters standing with and for them.

Just insane. New Jersey Gov Mikie Sherrill says DHS just denied state health inspectors full access to Delaney Hall. She's calling for it to be shut down.

OK friends. This is not a drill. I've known Alexis for years. She's the real deal. This ad just barely skates the surface of her awesomeness. What a dream to have her in Congress. Let's do our best to make it happen. Donate/volunteer/share.

Many governments use immigrants or fraudsters as hate figures. The Trump administration does this to an unusual degree. But what is truly extraordinary is how they do this while engaging in the type and scale of corruption they accuse others of. www.propublica.org/article/dona...

BREAKING: Court Rejects Alabama House Map, Calling It Unfair to Black Voters Our teams have been working nonstop around the clock since the Callais decision to defend the maps in Alabama. This is a critical victory & affirmation that Black voters deserve fair maps. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/26/u...

Senator Robert Jackson is a pillar of our community Uptown and in the Bronx. To have his support means the world to me. When we stand together, we win!

“It’s just burning. I just wanted to try to keep people safe.” ICE fired pepper spray at Senator Andy Kim and protesters outside a detention facility in New Jersey. Not another penny should go to these out-of-control agencies — and when we regain power, we will hold all of these thugs accountable.

More than 300 people detained by ICE at Delaney Hall in New Jersey have launched a hunger & work strike, citing lack of medical care and fair due process. Via: www.instagram.com/p/DYp1m5KEa35/

We’re excited to announce our endorsement of @darializaforny.bsky.social! Darializa has been fighting for her neighbors in Upper Manhattan since she was a teen, and now she’s running for Congress to restore power to the people of NY-13 and make life better for working class families in the district.

"A vote for me is a vote to abolish ICE." "A vote for me is a vote to close the camps where tens of thousands of people the regime abducted are captive without trial." "A vote for me is a vote to lower your healthcare premiums." "A vote for me is a vote to stop killing school kids abroad."

The good news is, not everyone in left politics is committed to stepping on rakes. If you want to see an autopsy that's actually useful and made by competent people with real expertise, check out @waytowinus.bsky.social's analysis bsky.app/profile/wayt...

Good to see: District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office is looking into potential criminal liability by the corporate owners of a violation-riddled building at 207 Dyckman St. where three people died earlier this month. www.thecity.nyc/2026/05/21/d...

This is a baseless smear job from anti-union, anti-labor hacks. It only proves the central message of Randi's book: fascists fear teachers. www.aft.org/press-releas...

Using the presidency to shield your businesses from audits. Off-the-charts corruption.

Why have reparations when you can have reconfederations?

Thousands are marching in Selma calling for a full restoration of the voting rights act.

This is terrible. I used to live right around the corner from here. Stop traffic violence! www.nytimes.com/2026/05/15/n...

New unemployment insurance claims up 6% from a shocking low level to a low level in week ending May 9. Low-hire, low-fire continues. #NumbersDay

Watching a series of former Confederate states rush to eliminate any vestige of black representation in the House pretty much answers the question whether the Voting Rights Act was still necessary.

3 actual quotes from this piece: “Can I afford the tax? Yes. Is it going to deter me? No. But I think it’s shameful. I provide a lot of money to people who are blue-collar workers who work for me, servers in restaurants." giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

I wanna go bike riding with Mamdani. And will talk the whole way about him needing to make good on his promised library budget. And if he tries to ride away, I think I‘ll be able to catch up, lol.

Always close the door behind you in a fire to protect yourself and your neighbors. @fdny.bsky.social works hard to keep us safe, let's do our best to keep each other safe.

The Supreme Court is trying to *fast track* the elimination of Black Congresspeople in the upcoming midterms. Its destruction of the Voting Rights Act has devolved into a pure political power play for Republicans BY the Republicans on the Court. I explain in @thenation.com

Cornell University President Michael Kotlikoff hit two students with his car after the approached him to talk about the school's repression of free speech on campus. This is President Kotlikoff last March: 🧵

Times have been worse than they are today in the U.S. Important to remember not because some people aren't living under terrible conditions right now but because it shows that things can in fact change for the better. They change if we change them.

We are taking out history back, and the fascists will never bury us again

Please join me in calling on your Council Member to dedicate half of one percent of the NYC budget to libraries. Public libraries are essential and this is the bare minimum they deserve! actionnetwork.org/letters/city...

Your regular reminder that mass voter fraud does not exist, in the same way that the Earth is not flat & the sun does not rise in the West. We know this, scientifically. Allowing these beliefs to become mainstream & shape national political discourse over decades is a total media & societal failure.

Every single majority Black state is calling for redistricting Almost no one in print has called that out but @elienyc.bsky.social The shift we are about to see in Black organizing behavior is gonna knock some people for the loop of their lives

May Day is a great day to act for climate justice. There is no worker justice w/o a livable planet. Make billionaires pay & let working ppl live in healthy, affordable communities.

once again the unbelievable arrogance of roberts et al is going to genuinely destructive effects on the entire country

Given the argument that ended the VRA, I think it’s time liberals did some self reflection about the now decades long obsession with partisan polarization as the problem, as opposed to authoritarianism, extremism, oligarchy, and racism
