Trump’s egomaniacal administration is back, and he’s doubling down on gutting public programs such as FEMA, Medicare, and many more. As floods leave hundreds dead and missing in Texas, we need to look out for each other now more than ever. @ydsa.org

Tomorrow is election day in NYC, and the socialist candidate has a chance of winning the Democratic primary. With a rich history of socialism and a freshly elected DSA member on city council, Milwaukee is ready to follow New York’s lead.
