The challenges we now face must be met by a bold progressive populist movement that strengthens democracy and shakes up the system.
We can’t simply return to the path we were on before Trump.
We cannot accept the status quo of Big Money dominating our politics and economy.

“Rabbi Elliot Cosgrove of the Park Avenue Synagogue used his weekly sermon on Saturday to attack Mr. Mamdani as a ‘danger to the security of the New York Jewish community.’” What happened to the separation of church and state? Or does that only apply to Christian churches?

The effort the dems are putting in to block Mamdani and get a sex pest elected instead is truly disgusting. Cuomo was a bad politician who killed people and wasted public funds and enriched his cronies but these people really will go to any length to tear down a brown democratic socialist.
