A joy to march in NYC Pride with the people's champ Tish James 🏳️‍🌈

Preaching to the choir, but it's clear we have an endemic of underqualified white men who overestimate their intelligence, importance, and competence in positions they have no business being in. DEI was just an attempt to correct that by having qualified individuals ALSO from other walks of life.

yeah already felt tokenized by Dems for being Jewish but holy fuck if they’ve not just gone full mask off on how they’ll try and weaponize Jewish identity to drive Islamophobic fear

This is unprecedented. The AMA and other medical professional societies speak as one on respiratory virus vaccines and in their own way, say the Trump Administration cannot be trusted with your health. www.ama-assn.org/delivering-c...

A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa. It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;) It's so New York.

Not to be corny, but I have genuinely loved this aspect of Zohran and Brad Lander's dynamic. So much of this primary was so ugly and cynical, and they refused to give into that. I want more of this energy, all across the country.

i shan't be listening to the takes of centrists who believe in nothing

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

Brad Lander told NY1 at Mamdani’s party that what Democrats need to decide right now is whether to be “fighters or folders” and yes he should immediately mount a primary challenge to Chuck Schumer

Polls are now closed, and people trickling in to Zohran Mamdani's watch party in LIC. @thecity.nyc

128 Democrats need to get primaried.

[email protected] is standing up to oligarchy and fighting to make New York City affordable for working people. It's no wonder that billionaires and corporations are spending a fortune to defeat him. If you’re a NYC voter, I urge you to rank him #1 on your ballot today.

LET’S FUCKING GO!

Horrified by the ICE raids and police violence in LA? These orgs are helping So Cal residents most affected. And they could *really* use donations. It’s far from over.

Please rank this guy first and don’t rank sex-pest literal murderer Cuomo if you live in NYC

If these people were so great at politics and governing, I would not have lost Roe V. Wade in my lifetime, trans kids could still access healthcare, and my marriage wouldn’t be under direct threat from SCOTUS. Public education wouldn’t be being dismantled in front of us. The list goes on

I’m tired of being lectured on what it takes to win elections by people who haven’t been, in fact, winning the most important elections of my lifetime. I do not want to hear from these dinosaurs anymore

As to why I brought him up? Because he’s endorsing Cuomo, another disgusting establishment sex pest, and I’m tired of hearing his opinion. I’m tired of the party trotting him out and then going “but why won’t young people vote for us”

we actually don’t have to listen to the people who are cheerleading war who were also cheerleading war 20+ years. we’re the adults in the room now and we have the power to say fuck no to shitty ideas.

Word for word the same argument that got us into the Iraq War: "Look how bad this country is"

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

just say no to cable news

We have a madman in the White House who is actively trying to trigger total war. If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.

if there was legislation that, e.g., failed to protect trans athletes while protecting trans rights in other respects, THEN you can try to have a conversation about compromise. but ceding the issue without getting anything in return isn’t compromise, you’re just losing.

Much love to Portland, Oregon! We will beat the fire nation! Hopefully more cities follow. We can overwhelm them

I got mad and I wrote about it.

I am getting multiple reports that the Trump admin is NOT complying with the court order requiring passport updates for transgender people. Some passport agencies are being told not to give trans people passports with their correct gender marker, for now.

Me: It's unwise to be charmed by politicians and you should never treat them like fictional characters you root for uncynically. Also me: What if Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander were both mayor and had Bert & Ernie beds in Gracie Mansion?

Brad has been released and the crowd breaks into a chant of “Free them all.”

At what point are we allowed to defend ourselves? We're just supposed to trust that some random dudes are actually law enforcement??

Crowds are gathering in Foley square demanding the release of Brad Lander

And the person who turned up to support him with no notice is the Muslim dude who have cross endorsed each other and who the msm has been going into overtime to cast him as antisemitic

BREAKING: Brad Lander Detained by Masked Federal Agents Inside Immigration Court buff.ly/tnmNADl

Advocate 17 Jun 25 -- Fed appeals court finds 11-year-old Wisconsin 5th grade trans girl has the right to use her middle school's girls’ bathroom, which she previously had used w/o incident since 1st grade. (This is where we're at: litigating where 11 y/o's urinate.) @rikiwilchins.bsky.social

LASD is pushing again, press is being pushed too. Press in front of LASD aren’t given a chance to remain in the area.

LAPD is now launching tear gas into the crowd outside federal building Tear gas at 430 pm. @mayor.lacity.gov sent LAPD to clear the streets 4 hours before curfew.

LAPD called up every single sworn officer today. The city will be spending tens of thousands on overtime

Do you know how badly you have to screw up as a Republican to get this kind of turnout in IDAHO? #NOKINGS

THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE❣️ Estimates for #Milwaukee are the 15 thousand of us took to the streets in solidarity for our #Democracy #Wisconsin #3E @altnps.bsky.social @msnbc.com @50501-mke.bsky.social @50501movement.bsky.social @indivisible.org

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

Andrew Cuomo is afraid he'll lose, so his donors want you to fear me. His SuperPAC just sent out a mailer that artificially lengthened and darkened my beard. This is blatant Islamophobia—the kind of racism that explains why MAGA billionaires support his campaign.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

Hey there, it's me! That one knight in armour at the pride event you went to! Hi! #pride #canterburypride #canterbury #pride2024

All gas, no breaks. Only you can make this poll a reality: zohranfornyc.com/events
