Hello! My name is Chris Gilmer-Hill. I’m proud to be a lifelong Detroiter, democratic socialist, environmental justice champion, and union member, and I’m excited to announce my candidacy for State House here in district 8, covering parts of Detroit, Ferndale, & Pleasant Ridge!

Next year is huge for DSA’s electoral work, and we need National Electoral Commission leadership that is committed to mass politics and grounded in real organizing to win BIG for socialism 🌹 Vote Groundwork for NEC Steering to build the party, elect socialist cadre, and win at all levels! 🪴

trump (after zohran mamdani charms him for 5 minutes): “we’re looking very strongly at implementing socialism, many people are saying it. they love redistribution of wealth and you’re hearing it more and more. there’s a term, they call it, a centrally planned economy. it’s an old fashioned term”

“Nothing is more important than stopping fascism, because fascism will stop us all.” - Fred Hampton

DSA endorsee Denzel McCampbell won his primary for Detroit City Council! 🎊 “Do you want a city government that works for developers and the wealthiest Detroiters? Or do we need working class elected representatives who understand us and will fight for us?” 😤 electoral.dsausa.org?p=1251 Stats 👇👇👇

STEWART: “I feel like I’m watching something so self-evidently inhumane and horrific and to be told I have to shut up because I risk the Jewish state by speaking out? I would say the opposite — they’re putting the likelihood of a surviving Jewish state much more at risk.”

John Cazale mid-70's type run

This is the kind of gap between rank and file voters and the party establishment that will likely cause some real havoc and disruption in the party's politics and primaries. In a different way, it's what gave rise to Trump in GOP.

Wealthy CEOs want to hide how much they make. The SEC hosted a roundtable laying the groundwork to do their bidding. They call it 'simplification.' We call it hiding the truth about corporate greed.

Last weekend, we joined @socialists.nyc volunteer appreciation day to celebrate the thousands of members—old and new—who knocked on doors, made phone calls, and organized day after day for our victory in the primary. Onward to November and beyond.

The left-most candidate – who was endorsed by AOC, Bernie and the Working Families Party – won the congressional primary, and the NYT is spinning it as a loss for Mamdani’s politics. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/15/u...

why are we doing age verification? we're all 38

The organization that molded the candidacy & platform for the very candidate you’re supporting is “awful”? The political organization that numbers over 10k members across the city & is the infrastructure for his campaign is “awful”? If mamdani & his campaign are the path forward, so is DSA.

I truly hope left & prog candidates can ride the Zohran wave and boot centrists from the party, & it is also imperative that we beat the drum that a healthy DSA chapter was an essential ingredient in forming who Zohran is & is inextricable at every level from his campaign’s success t.co/GftxUKQ4Rq

That’s my Congresswoman 🥲🥲

people come up with all kinds of fanciful math to justify billionaires' wealth but imo present political moment demonstrates conclusively that we need to tax billionaires at whatever rate will keep them focused on their own fucking business rather than our Medicaid and pediatric cancer research

My statement on Donald Trump's threat to deport me and his praise for Eric Adams, who the President "helped out" of legal accountability.

This should put to bed the idea that passing and implementing populist policies isn’t good politics. They need to be well administered, publicized, and the effects clearly demonstrated. Oh and take the damn credit loudly and proudly !

Hakeem Jeffries is a despicable piece of shit full stop. He deserves nothing less than full public humiliation and to leave office in disgrace

We should all be disgusted by the flood of anti-Muslim remarks spewed in the aftermath of Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the NYC mayoral primary — some blatant, others latent. Shame on the members of Congress who have engaged in such bigotry and anyone who doesn’t challenge it.

Ok, then I don’t want to hear another fucking word about how Rashida should have publicly endorsed Kamala.

The Detroit Socialist is back! Check out the latest in Metro Detroit DSA’s chapter publication and stay tuned for future drops. medium.com/dsa-detroit-...

On the heels of Tuesday’s historic election of a democratic socialist who ran on taxing the rich to pay for public goods, we’re out in force in Lansing, MI to get a constitutional amendment to tax the rich to pay for our public schools. Tax the rich, fund our schools, take back our democracy 🗳️✊

Not only is Zohran a homegrown, DSA organizer who built up his political chops through Bernie, his campaign achieved a massive feat, “Mamdani did better with voters of color than with white voters... In this, he reversed nearly 30 years of anti-materialist political science theories.”

he's right and he's right to say it

Tonight’s win was almost entirely conceived and powered by organized members of the largest socialist organization in the country. It’s truly almost impossible to believe.

all the worst people are sad tonight and i just think thats neat

Zohran Mamdani, a proud member of DSA, and his historic campaign stand a solid chance of making history! Join us at Moondog Cafe (8045 Linwood St, Detroit) tonight 7-11pm for some comradery & hear from our very own socialist candidate for Detroit City Council, Denzel McCampbell!

I actually did vote for everything to get more expensive, dangerous, and stupid, and I feel extremely represented right now

Impeccable DSA vibes today—NYC DSA all out to elect Zohran mayor, & we hit 80,000 members all over the country! Against the ghouls unleashing daily horrors from our political system, we’re organizing to win what all of us deserve. It’s a great time to join! 🌹👉🏾dsausa.org/join

“I’m tired of feeling powerless. Joining DSA is the most effective way to get organized. DSA chapters across the country build strong communities and campaign for candidates who stand for working people against oligarchs. I want to be a part of it!” — North Carolina dsausa.org/join

Well if it isn’t the consequences of the Israel industrial complex’s own actions of 40+ years! Maybe all money doesn’t spend the same after all when you’re in bed with Pastor Hagee and Christians United for Israel…

Among Democrats - "Do you support Democrats like Sanders and AOC who call for a more aggressive stance towards Trump, or moderate Democrats who are willing to compromise with Trump issues important to their base?" AOC/Bernie: 70% Moderate Dems: 30% Harvard-Harris / June 12, 2025

This was a terrorist act.

Bro…come on

Finished The Rehearsal S2 and I’m…legit inspired? What the fuck

On June 6, 1944, 81 years ago, the US and allied troops landed on the beaches of Normandy to liberate Europe from Hitler’s tyrannic rule. These brave soldiers gave their lives to defend democracy. We must honor them by continuing the fight against authoritarianism and fascism in all its forms.

We’re at RashidaTlaib’s town hall tonight, where she’s breaking down what Trump’s budget would do to her district: – 157K at risk of losing SNAP – 36K facing 50% higher ACA premiums – 258K on Medicaid/CHIP threatened—100K are kids Every member should be doing this.It’s staggering cruelty laid bare.

1. Democrat leadership refuses to accurately call it "MAGA Murder Budget" claiming this is too hyperbolic and won't stick 2. Republicans call it "the Big Beautiful Bill" and it is now instantly known as "the Big Beautiful Bill" even to opponents seems like there is a lesson here

Post a random photo otherwise everything goes wrong in June
