Surreal, standing in the West entrance to Fulton Center, hearing AOC’s address booming off the buildings on Broadway —

exactly like 2011, hearing the 3,000 person People’s Mic from the first post-eviction GA, as I exited the station after my first arrest, booming off the buildings on Broadway

“Can’t believe NYC elected a Muslim as mayor.”

In truth—a Black American Christian woman swearing in a Ugandan American Muslim of South Asian ethnicity as his Syrian American wife holds the Qurans he swears in on, all while standing on the steps of a subway station—is the most NYC thing imaginable.

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”

Boycott the corrupt, even if inconvenient!
AOC: "It's not just that Trump is corrupt. It's that everyone participating in this is corrupt — Elon is corrupt. Jeff Bezos is corrupt. Mark Zuckerberg is corrupt"

Did the United States really spend trillions of dollars on winning the Cold War, only for its president in 2025 take orders from a Russian dictator?

This is an earth-shattering humiliation for America of which its reputation may never recover.

Loser Mike Johnson hopes we forgot about extending ACA tax credits while he was on Christmas vacation.

Let’s make it very clear how wrong he is:

Trump’s main weapon is public exhaustion—the “it’s all corrupt anyway” numbness that makes people withdraw & hands the field to organized authoritarians.

Like the 60s, survival now depends on acting together—loudly, persistently, & strategically—until Trump’s project is defeated at ballot box & law

YES!
Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Trump has begun lifting American sanctions on companies that sell weapons to the Russian military. The Russians have finally offered enough money to the Trump family and Trump is 100% on Russia's side now.

The “Warrior Dividend” Trump announced during his televised address to the nation is not a Christmas bonus made possible by tariff revenues, as the president suggested. The $1,776 payments to troops come from a congressionally-approved housing supplement — money they were already set to receive
