ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Teen Vogue has become a top-tier political journalism authority and doing this the day before election day is just cruel.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

It's Election Eve. If we get a year down the road and none of this scaremongering over Zohran Mamdani has come to pass, will there be anything in the way of apologies and reflections from those who engaged in said scaremongering? I've been wondering that all day.

We should stop saying that some people only start caring about politics when it affects them. What we really mean is that they’ve only started caring about politics when they have realized that it affects them. Politics affects all of us. All of the time.

Early voting in the NYC mayoral election begins TODAY.

If you're a New Yorker, I urge you to vote for Zohran Mamdani — the only candidate who will stand up to the oligarchy and fight for working people.

Listen to his inspiring words from primary night.

Imagine if someone took all the Americans who actually return their shopping carts to the corral and gave them their own country—that's Canada. 🇨🇦
