Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

I visited Grand Street Senior Housing on the Lower East Side today and tried a little Bomba y Plena…

Powerful and moving interview with Virginia Giuffre's brother Sky and sister-in-law Amanda: "He's just Andrew. He's no longer a prince... This normal girl, from a normal family, has taken down a prince. We are so proud of her." "She was extraordinary. She did the extraordinary."

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

THREE WAYS TO TAKE ACTION NOW 1. Donate to your local food bank. 2. Collect and distribute to your local community shelter. Check with your local organizations first to see what they need most. 3. Host a give-back drive in your community. Visit NoKings.org/alliance to learn more. #SNAP

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Donald Trump deleted this from the government website. Let's be clear: there's funding available to cover SNAP benefits next month. Trump is stopping SNAP benefits because he wants to. He is forcing mommas and babies to go hungry.

Data centers are receiving billions in state tax exemptions. These centers, many owned by Big Tech giants, are driving up electric bills and sucking up huge amounts of water. AI is boosting the stock portfolios of the richest Americans while everyone else pays the price.

democrats of all stripes should be rallying around kat abughazaleh asap. it doesnt matter where you stand ideologically. trying to jail dissenters is fundamentally unamerican and 100% fascist. democratic leaders at all levels should be making noise about it. you dont need a poll or focus group.

The president had a MRI but won't say why. He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why. He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical. He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it. How is any of this ok?

Tyler Robinson is not “leftwing” as much as they want ppl to believe it. He’s a kid from a Republican, gun-nut, family in Utah. Even the UT governor said “he’s one of us”. Ask yourself why haven’t we seen or heard anymore about him?

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

It’s more than just bad priorities. It’s about lack of basic decency.

Early voting in the NYC mayoral election begins TODAY. If you're a New Yorker, I urge you to vote for Zohran Mamdani — the only candidate who will stand up to the oligarchy and fight for working people. Listen to his inspiring words from primary night.

This dark time should wake us up to the bankruptcy of the corporate Democratic Party. It should mark the birth of the people’s Democratic Party. Zohran Mamdani and others like him are its future. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-mamdani-moment

We’ve got a taxation without representation problem for Arizona as Trump-lackey Mike Johnson refuses to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social. She & the state of AZ have sued to force Johnson’s hand & to foil Trump’s efforts to stop the release of the Epstein Files. youtu.be/Wa6Q4j1jvW0?...

We asked Donald Trump to cut health care costs. Instead, he cut off a wing of the White House.

Voters should pick their representatives, not the other way around. Glad to get the chance to talk to some of the volunteers and organizers doing the hard work to make sure Prop 50 passes. This vote will have critical implications, not just for California, but for our entire country.

The White House is getting a taste of its own medicine as Democratic-led states use government websites to blame Trump for the shutdown.

Family of Chad Joseph believe he was killed in US strike on Tuesday Relatives say Joseph was a fisherman, call his death 'perfect murder' Legal experts, Democrats raise concerns about legality of strikes www.reuters.com/world/us/fam...

We are Americans. We are free. And we do not do kings here. #NoKings

#NoKings ever. Public land not ever for sale. Climate change is real. Clean water is life 🌊💙

This is what solidarity looks like. Together, we will win.

Finally came across video of an arrest at a #NoKings event yesterday. 🙄

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

📣POLITICIANS ARE NOT ABOVE THE LAW📣

The power of the people is greater than the people in power.

The real choice Democrats face is not between a continuing resolution that allows the government to function normally or a government shutdown. Under the Trump regime, the government is not functioning normally. It is already shutting down. Why vote to legitimize Trump's coup?

🔥ZOHRAN: “What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity. And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.”

The Santos commutation is a prelude to a Ghislaine Maxwell pardon. Mark my words.

US cities to resist Trump’s crackdown on dissent with No Kings protests: ‘We will not be bullied’

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring. Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

Top 10 Rally Reminders for #NoKingsDayOct18th

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

An important message to the people of New York City. More information at zohranfornyc.com/birthday

While our country suffers on Day 15 of a government shutdown courtesy of the GOP, Trump gives Argentina a $20 billion bailout at the expense of American farmers. Re-upping my latest Substack piece on Trump’s not-so-secret sleight of hand: open.substack.com/pub/katiepha...

Zohran Mamdani is THE GOAT 🐐🔥

AOC: Trump should be having congressional leaders in the WH. Do you see that every day? No, you don't because they're playing golf and they're going to mar-a-lago and the Republicans in the house have been on vacation for weeks now

The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment rage at a system that’s rigged against most people. Democrats should ignore the carping of corporate-backed Wall Street Democrats and embrace Zohran Mamdani and other young progressives as the future of the party.

Calling for gas chambers. Expressing love for Hitler. Endorsing rape. Using racist slurs. I'm demanding Rep. James Comer open a House Oversight Committee investigation into these shocking, deeply offensive messages that were exchanged by Young Republican leaders from across the country.

AOC: The problem is that the Trump administration, they think that destroying our health care, making sure that housing is too expensive to live in, that jacking up the cost of our groceries—they think all of this is about hurting Democrats. What they are doing is hurting Americans

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.
