As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

“If you can beat the oligarchs here…that will send a message to every community in America that real change is possible.”

More of my conversation with Bernie Sanders on democracy, oligarchy and his time as Mayor.

@ddayen.bsky.social is 100% right: the government has been shut down for months.

Before he was a Senator, a candidate for President, and our greatest champion in the fight against oligarchy, Bernie Sanders was the four-term Mayor of Burlington, VT.

I sat down with Bernie in Astoria to talk about the lessons he learned—and the work ahead.

Thank you, Senator Warren.
Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

An incredible night at Brooklyn College with Bernie Sanders. Thank you to everyone who packed the house and watched from home.

The fight against oligarchy is on the ballot this November - and together, we will win.

Donald Trump has invented a new kind of fascism, all the nasty, authoritarianism of the old fascism, but this time the trains *don't* run on time.

One week ago, thousands of New Yorkers tried something new.

They heard about it last minute. They didn’t know where it would take them or who they would meet. It was free, earnest, even educational.

It was the #ZcavengerHunt and it was a thing of beauty.

Volunteers with the ETA come from a range of professional backgrounds, from cybersecurity, fraud prevention, engineering, sciences, even anti-cheat in video games... But we all agree that if we saw similar statistical findings at work, we'd investigate further and audit...

Yes, please.
Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics.

Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages.

If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

Joe Biden and the 2021 Democratic caucus had only one job really and it was purging the entire insurrectionist party from office as quickly as possible by any means necessary.
Congress died the moment they allowed 147 insurrectionists to remain in office instead of expelling them and charging them with sedition. That’s just my opinion.

Did you see the ETA press release yesterday? 🧐🫨

Dr. Mebane states in his PA analysis that it is possible that "the election was decided or nearly decided by malevolent distortions of electors' intentions". Mebane is recognized as a leading authority on election fraud detection. #VerifyTheVote

The telltale sign of a rigged election is appropriately called a "Russian tail" -- it is triggered on election day and continues to skew the votes until the end of day. We live in an electoral fraud autocracy until we fix this.

Trump’s throwing himself a $45M birthday parade, tanks, fireworks, and 6,000 troops sleeping on cots. Meanwhile, #FEMA’s ghosted disaster zones, #Target’s choking on tariffs, and #ElonMusk just gave the most unhinged interview of his life.
