Kirsten Gillibrand on WNYC won’t endorse Mamdani. Said she doesn’t endorse NYC mayoral races (she endorsed Adams in 2021), and is waiting to see who runs on what line. What a fucking disgrace.

if dems want messaging help, stop telling people you're "fighting back." it sounds like you're being mugged. call off the podcaster search, take your ridiculous money pile and try opening some food banks and free clinics. hurricanes are coming and the feds have no plan. looks like an opening to me.

That's what they're saying. We can’t just ignore that. It should be a wake-up call.

Yesterday I joined a chain of protestors that stretched from Lisle to Little Village, all standing up and saying "HANDS OFF" to Donald Trump. Across our state, people are waking up and mobilizing because they're appalled at what's happening, and I'm going to be right there fighting alongside them.
