A million Muslims live in New York City. We belong here, as does every other New Yorker.

This is vile Islamophobia from the Councilwoman and it has no place in our city.

We need a Working Families Guarantee now because every New Yorker deserves access to healthcare, housing, and childcare!

It was great to be in community with so many folks in @nywfp.bsky.social yesterday to launch this platform and gear up for the important work ahead.

Hello friends, I recently lost my health insurance + benefits & am currently looking at a bill of over $16,000 for which I cannot pay. This would not necessarily be an issue if I were not visually impaired and currently out of full time work, but I am humbly asking for assistance now. Any bit helps.

If I were a Member of Congress, I would not have voted with Republicans to censure Rashida Tlaib (like 22 House Dems did).

But I sure would have already introduced a resolution to censure this bigot:
GOP Rep. Randy Fine says he's "not afraid" of being called "Islamophobic" and that, instead of making peace with Palestinians, "destroy them first."

This was during a hearing on "Judea and Samaria"—a term used to erase Palestinian ties to what's actually known as the West Bank.

In June 2024, @workingfamilies.org started its nationwide Mass Calls program of political education.

Since then, the number of people joining these calls has steadily grown into the thousands.

The next and last call for the year is tomorrow (Thu, Dec 11) at 8pm ET / 7pm CT / 6pm MT / 5pm PT.
THIS WEEK: join our last mass call of 2025. We'll be talking wins and plans for next year — a hugely consequential year for rebalancing power towards working people.

We will hear from WFP-endorsed congressional candidates which is fun and cool

Is your council member on this list? Ask them why they’re joining with Vickie Paladino in support of Julie Menin, and remind them that you want a city council that will work with the mayor elect on delivering the agenda that more than a million New Yorkers voted for.

Laughing at Donald Trump saying he'd definitely feel comfortable living in Zohran Mamdani's New York on the same day that half the consultant brain-poisoned Democratic party voted to condemn socialism

Yesterday, the President called for the murder of Congressional Democrats.

Today, dozens of Congressional Democrats voted to condemn the left.

BREAKING: The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.

Eighty-six Democrats joined Republicans in supporting the measure, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

From Puerto Rico to Brooklyn, Rep. @velazquez.house.gov has always been a champion and tireless advocate for immigrants, small businesses and working families. Your grace and fight showed us what real leadership looks like. From the bottom of my heart, thank you La Luchadora.

The crime is not what we were doing protesting in the 10th floor elevator lobby of 26 Federal Plaza.

The crime is what ICE agents are doing on the other side of the door.

From @puck.news:

"In any case, Schumer’s job is probably safe for what is expected to be his final two-ish years in office. (He hasn’t announced whether he’s retiring or running when his term is up in 2028, but Senate Democrats have no expectation he’ll run again.)"
Schumer has had better weeks. The back-slapping, attention-craving Dem leader is now facing the type of scrutiny that anyone who loves to be loved would prefer to avoid. The left turned on him. His caucus is annoyed. Govs ignored him. What about his future

Tick, Tick… Schumer
The embattled Senate minority leader once again faces calls to step down.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.

Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.
so currently defectors are:

Kaine (2030)
Shaheen (Retiring)
Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)
Rosen (2030)
King (2030)

That’s why we’ll be working to unseat both Republicans as well as corporate Democrats who have kowtowed to the Trump agenda and replace them with Working Families Party champions who will fight to lower the cost of living and guarantee health care for every family.

Tonight, Senate Republicans — aided by eight Democrats — passed a funding bill that will raise healthcare premiums for millions of Americans and leave some families without health care at all.

Let's discuss.

I'm getting a lot of responses from blue wave accounts talking about Trump. Frankly, that is already a known threat. What I'm trying to raise the alarm about here are the NYT, The Atlantic, and other reactionary news outlets that still carry legitimacy in liberal urban circles for some reason.

NYC is going to have the world's biggest media-manufactured crime panic in history the second Mamdani is elected. They aren't even going to wait until he is inaugurated. Whether or not you like the guy, you need to start preparing now for the fire hose of disinformation that is about to activate.
