I did not have Trump trying to flirt with Mamdani in front of the press corps on my bingo card.

Virginia has elected Ghazala Hashmi as the state’s next lieutenant governor, making her the first Muslim woman ever elected to statewide office in the United States. 19thnews.org/2025/11/virg...

Seems like a good time for the Speaker of the House to swear in Rep. Grijalva.

Mamdani has won more votes than the entire population of any of the 5 smallest states.

There are so many people who've had a hand in this historic moment, but one person I'm so grateful for is @lindseyboylan.bsky.social. Your courage and your conviction opened a door for so many people and so many futures, and this is one amazing reality you had such a vital role in making possible.

His future is City Hall Our future is affordability and democracy and really good immigrant restaurants and being friends with our neighbors and so much more.

The worst people are having a bad night. You truly love to see it.

MSNBC calls NYC for Mamdani

If you want to know who took all of your money, it's the people with all of the money.

M A M D A N I you should learn how to say it Cuz he’s gonna be mayor elect!!!!

If you are a Democratic senator watching these results and the lesson you take is "I should cave and help Republicans reopen the government for nothing more than a promise written on toilet paper" then you shouldn't be in the Senate anymore

Congratulations on your re-election, Mayor Wu - the best mayor in America. You proved once more that Boston can't be bought and won't be bullied.

I am SO ready to fill the place with more waitresses like @aoc.bsky.social, more rappers like @zoink.bsky.social and more @aclu.org organizers like @maxwellfrost.bsky.social.

Don’t tempt me with a good time

Juneteenth is a celebration of emancipation, but also a reminder that the work of freedom isn’t finished. Together, we are working to build a multiracial, representative democracy for everyone — and we’re in it for the long haul.

We must remember that in America we have the right to free speech and lawful protest. Using the military to silence criticism of the government is unconstitutional and counter to our American values.

“And when push Comes to shove I will send a fully armed battalion To remind you of my love” Hamilton still hits.

"Colorado lawmakers may table attempted TABOR reckoning" is, in fact, one of the most Colorado headlines I've ever seen

Donald Trump is kidnapping and disappearing people—we cannot let him get away with it.

The line for this term was never what he was going to do, it was always what we were going to do in response

Here’s a VP who can hold a trophy without breaking it 😍

Hear me out: the women in space explore the Titanic…

Is it that the administration doesn’t want to bring him home, or is he too beaten (or worse)? He needs to be home and he needs to be home now.

AOC: I was watching earlier today on TV, someone was saying, “Why are AOC and Bernie going to Idaho?” I’ll give you one simple answer: It’s because you matter

Every time we talk about the SAVE Act, we need to connect the dots between the climate crisis and forced migration. Voting and access to democracy is a climate issue, just like it’s a gender justice issue.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

If 25 hours and 1 minute wasn’t enough @booker.senate.gov for ya, do yourself a favor and rewatch @corybooker.com’s epic announcement video for the 2020 presidential race (aka my favorite campaign announcement video of all time): youtu.be/mx5m6DDFupg?...

Booker finally yields after more than 25 hours of speaking 👏👏👏

Reminder that Cory Booker is the first Black person elected to the Senate from New Jersey and the fourth Black person elected to the US Senate.

Incredible. This sucker is doing down, just as one Dem was predicting to me. Means GOP has to go back to the House Rules Committee and pass a new rule for taking up the SAVE Act -- this time without a separate provision that kills GOP Rep. Luna's bill to accommodate new parents in Congress.

While you were watching Sen. Booker's marathon filibuster, Colorado Democratic Congresswoman Brittany Pettersen and Florida Republican Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna brought 9 Republicans along with every House Democrat to block Speaker Johnson's attempt to ban proxy voting for new parents!

I would rather Google “What are the rules of a filibuster?” over “Does fascism make you nauseous?” any day of the week!

Cory Booker with the late and great John Lewis, posted by Booker in 2020 saying that “We all stand on the shoulder of giants.” May John Lewis’ legacy be guiding all of our activism today and tomorrow

In 2012, @booker.senate.gov was the Newark mayor when he ran INTO THE FLAMES & saved his neighbor’s life: “’Im a neighbor that did what most neighbors would do, which is to jump into action to help a friend.” Today, he’s running into the flames to help the country. www.politico.com/story/2012/0...

More useful things Senate Democrats could do: - Hold a joint press conference demanding Trump and Musk restore constitutional governance - Hold a joint press conference demanding Musk resign from DOGE - Announce a Congressional boycott of X

Things Democratic Senators could do that would be useful: - Withdraw unanimous consent from all Senate business until constitutional rule was restored - Refuse to vote for any legislation until constitutional rule was restored - Boycott as a caucus until constitutional rule was restored
