DSA-LA elections are happening—I’m asking all DSA-LA members to vote for me and the Left Coast slate— @socialistmajority.com and Communist Caucus members as well as a slew of independents running on a unity slate to turn our chapter into a mass movement, fight fascism, and win socialism! More below:

"What if the bizarre and unethical escapades and reporting practices of two of the most high-profile political journalists don't say anything about the powerful media institutions that employed and promoted them and gave them massive platforms for years?" Listen to yourself.

Wait — so they're going to ditch juries but keep those silly wigs?!

No Kings, but will gladly stan this queen.

Lefty mayoral challenger Rae Huang says she can't take another four years of Karen Bass thelareporter.la/p/lefty-mayo...

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Not the most important thing here, but — Celina Midelfart

Sheldon is trying to protect his buddy and fellow RI senator, Jack Reed, who absolutely needs and deserves a primary this cycle.

They "leak" stuff like this because they think that we're stupid.

Hakeem Jeffries is about to get a primary challenger. @chiosse.bsky.social will reportedly make an announcement about this in the coming weeks.

My food fussiness is almost all texture based and I CAN tell the difference between De Cecco and the US made brands so this is bad for my pasta loving family

The @apnews.com found Fedora Man, and he's a teenager, and the story is that he's just a stylish dude. Quirky and delightful. apnews.com/article/louv...

remember every Democrat should be assumed to be in support of this unless they break Senate omertà and start opposing colleagues in primaries

"Keep" fighting. They say things like this because they think you are stupid.

The Washington Post editorial page is the perfect metaphor for America's legacy institutions. It's been lousy for ages, and now a billionaire kowtowing to Trump has made it much, much worse.

"Now the city attorney says in a leaked memo the real problem is that 'anyone can claim they are a Journalist.' Fine. Maybe those anyones shouldn’t get shot in the head, either," the @ladailynews.bsky.social' editorial board writes.

One of my absolute favorite posters.

Agree, but large and growing income and wealth gaps are an important part of the context. The more you align politician salaries with those of elites, the more you separate their conditions from most people they govern. Yes, higher salaries for electeds — but another reason to attack inequality!

"I'm not a hero. I really more of a sub or a grinder."

Don't know about Korn, but William Daroff made his bones as a Republican political operative and has never been other than a piece of shit. And the Conference of Presidents has been a right-wing operation going back decades. It's just the same old crap, aimed at a new target.

This is incredible. Zohran been pre-butting the antisemitism charge for over a decade! Also, I love every single one of these wonderfully dorky kids.

SIR, MARK WARNER NEEDS A PRIMARY CHALLENGER — YOUR WIDE AWAKES STAND READY!!

This is so awesome.

Herbie Hancock, we love you, but this song title is pretty iffy. (Good song, tho.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIt3...

“What keeps us going, ultimately, is our love for each other, and our refusal to bow our heads, to accept the verdict, however all-powerful it seems. It’s what ordinary people have to do. You have to love each other. You have to defend each other. You have to fight.” —Mike Davis

I am hearing that on his deathbed Andrew Cuomo received the light of democratic socialism and unhesitatingly sang the Internationale. Even now he looks down on Bushwick from the gardens of Astoria. Truly there is no god but DSA, and Zohran is his prophet!

Media outlets love to write stories about how controversial Krasner's anti-carceral agenda is in Philadelphia, and then he wins every race by Assad-level margins. He's very popular!!

AYANNA PRESSLEYYYYY

This is a giant Bat-Signal for @primaryschool.bsky.social, IMO.

Defeating Cuomo was always paramount, and it's glorious that that's happening — twice. But the fact that he's going out in the most humiliating way possible, showing his entire ass, is really icing on the cake.

Zeno's Paradox, but for being an anti-semite

I sincerely hope that Zohran has a long memory and holds grudges.

It is past time for Democrats to stop invoking Reagan as a supposed paragon of shared values. Reagan a)sucked, b)is no longer relevant to anyone, including the current Republican party, and c)(as others have noted) actively protected South African apartheid. Show some self-respect.

LMFAOOOOOOOOOO LET HER COOK

Obviously these charges are flagrant and disgusting fascist shit, but also, I'm not too sure about DOJ's wisdom in going after a small, telegenic young woman with a big platform, sophisticated media chops, a massive donor base, and an active congressional campaign in a safe Democratic seat.

When politicians say they don't look at or care about who gives them money, they are lying because they think you're stupid.

Good god, man, take some fucking responsibility for yourself! Did Chuck Schumer hold you down and ink that totenkopf on your chest?!

The clearest evidence yet that Graham Platner is a closet conservative — he's whiny as shit.

Thank god. Everything about this case stunk to high heaven from Day One. (And Keri covered the shit out of it.)

Tag yourself — I'm "a gay black persona in a zine"

Feels like a good time to post Orson Welles recounting the hysteria he and the Mercury Theatre created with their Halloween eve radio broadcast of "The War of the Worlds." www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VMb...

When powerful forces in local government want to do something, they always move fast and find the money. When they don't, they take forever and moan about budgets. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.
