A victory for the Cuban people and the Cuba solidarity movement! The Biden admin has taken the long overdue step of removing #Cuba from the State Sponsors of Terror list.

NYC, you did it. Not only have we handily qualified for public matching funds but our $642,339 haul from 6,502 donors are the most of any campaign. That means we'll have $3+ million to share our vision for a more affordable city. I am profoundly grateful.

Hasta la victoria siempre 🇨🇺 www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-roo...

BIDEN ADMIN HAS REMOVED CUBA FROM THE STATE SPONSORS OF TERROR LIST LETS FUCKING GO!! www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-roo...

Look I don't trust Trump at all, especially on Palestine. He's evil. But Joe Biden spent a year and a half helping the fascist regime of Benjamin Netanyahu do genocide against a population of mostly children. And if he hadn't, Donald Trump wouldn't be able to get credit for a ceasefire deal.

The hip line is Netanyahu is spiting Biden by agreeing to a ceasefire as Trump comes into office. What’s important to understand is that this theory makes no sense. All reporting from Israel indicates Trump forced the issue (likely to spite Biden), what Netanyahu wants is, again, wholly irrelevant

GOOD MORNING FROM DAY 4 OF OUR ULP STRIKE! Let's hear it for our baristas in Boston, Dallas, and Portland who are joining the strike today 🔥

We won! Democratic socialist Mike Siegel will be our next city council member for D7. Austin DSA knocked tens of thousands of doors to help secure this victory over the GOP-supported opponent. We look forward to working with Mike on council to implement working class politics!

New in The Agitator: @hangryeyes.bsky.social dives into the ongoing debate about DSA’s electoral strategy and the widening gulf between what the National Political Committee claims they want versus the reality on the ground. www.socialistmajority.com/theagitator/...

The 2023 DSA convention was meant to be a turning point in DSA's electoral strategy. But most of the way through their term, every NPC member still supports endorsing candidates on the Democratic line, and no real steps toward a 3rd-party strategy are being taken. I wrote about this disconnect:

Was grateful to speak yesterday at The People's Forum honoring the life and legacy of Fidel Castro, a man in whose shadow I grew up in, in more ways than one.

"why vote to save democracy when it's not letting you afford a house or groceries" is a good question and it's worth asking the same thing about any ideology you want people to support

Hey it's the Iraq war lady!

In 2018 Dems elected the largest class to Congress since Watergate, ~60 seats. A lot of it was, yes, Trump backlash. But the winners also had another thing in common, despite a wide range of differences: most rejected corporate PAC money. It’s a hugely compelling factor to voters & underdiscussed

?

Agree with the "strangers knocking and endless texts" being ineffective. But I think this still overestimates the Republican ground game success. They only went from 74 to 76 million in 2020vs2024. The important takaway imo is that good ground game is much more important for Dems specifically.

In the coming years, we will realize more and more how deeply involved the US is in this genocide- as well as the reality of how many Americans have been on the ground fighting directly. Pretending that this isn't Biden's genocide is either insanity or willful ignorance.

there is this one weird graph that seems to indicate otherwise

"The ICC is a tool to pursue the enemies of American Empire ONLY! The war criminals, drug lords, death squads, and murderers that we support must be exempt!" "Mask off" is overused but goddamn this is mask off.

Great reminder from the shitheads at WaPo editorial board that the “rules-based” international order was created to exempt the liberal West from any rules

It was a pleasure to speak at Masjid Al-Amin over the weekend.

Of all the things to do in your last days

This alone should get your vote.

Couple of (DSA) IC Americas update for those leaving behind their X: We have a delegation at the Uruguayan Presidential runoff election. Our friends at the Frente Amplio are vying to return to power today. 🇺🇾

Disgusting ass chalky hummus.

You still get to go to elite mixers on Martha's Vineyard if the Nazis win. You don't if the left wins. Simple as.

NPR has spent the last few years softening its coverage to appease Republicans and here's their reward

Like 20 people have already blocked me for saying things like "Biden is bad for doing genocide"

People are like "there are no right wingers on blue sky" and i don't get it there are plenty of liberals on here

Bari Weiss should be the subject of a 60 Minutes expose, not of a puff piece

The grift that keeps on giving

Already blocked by many cowards and I've been here like a week total

Democracy Now! covers our demand that Gov. Hochul and NYPA use the power of the Build Public Renewables Act to develop 15 GW of clean energy to achieve our legally-mandated climate goals and create thousands of union jobs. Take action here: bit.ly/nyleadtheway

Shocking behaviour by the Biden administration.

Could someone lmk what this coward is saying from behind a block?

Happy to meet so many new people at the LowMan branch meeting yesterday. Discussed the election results, spoke about ongoing DSA work (pictured: #BuildPublicRenewables ) and had a fun social aftewards!

Take note Dems: to win in 2028 you have to reject student loan forgiveness and economic populism in general, demagogue about migrants forcing fentanyl on your kids, and focus on obscure, possibly apocryphal, govt regulations of day cares. So says this entirely organic PR push by blue dog democrats

I wear a kippah & kuffiyeh. Been harassed in public both by antisemites & right wing Zionists. The worst of it has come from the latter, and been directed at the kippah: wearing a kuffiyeh merely makes me contemptible, but if I’m *Jewish*, I threaten their worldview. So they must de-Judaize me.

"opposing him" means posting

"Only democracy in the Middle East"
