Look at these numbers and think of how often the Democratic party claims to love and want these voters.

…And then think of how hard the Democratic party has worked to stop Zohran Mamdani.

85% of young men support Zohran Mamdani.
79% of young women support Zohran Mamdani.
67% of Jewish people aged 18-44 support Zohran Mamdani.
65% of Black people aged 18-44 support Zohran Mamdani.

Would you have guessed *any* of that with how the media has covered all this?

Israel wants you to believe that airdrops and symbolic aid trucks will solve the famine in Gaza. Don't believe them. These measures are not meant to end hunger, only to quell growing global outrage as the genocide continues unchecked.

“The idea that there is genocide in Gaza and fascism at home are not unrelated. They’re deeply entwined and need to be attacked together.”

Thank you to Samer from @arocbayarea.bsky.social for these powerful words, laying out so concisely how we got to this moment.

From settlers working hand in glove with Israeli soldiers to carry out pogroms in the occupied West Bank to ICE collaborating with armed vigilante groups and Canary Mission. To defeat fascism, we need to build the civil society and movement infrastructure to effectively resist all of it.

From the U.S. to Israel, fascism thrives in the collaboration between state and vigilante groups.

Now, we have confirmation that the Trump administration has been relying upon slanderous blacklists from an extremist organization, Canary Mission, to conduct its investigations and violate the first amendment rights of students like Mahmoud Khalil and Rusmeya Ozturk.

For months, we have witnessed the Trump deportation machine ripping families, communities, and movements apart. That includes using deportation to threaten advocates for Palestinian freedom into silence.

Since July 12, the Israeli military has forbidden Palestinians from entering the sea for any reason. This cruel and inhumane order is deliberately timed to coincide with the extreme heat wave gripping Gaza now, with temperatures over 90 degrees Fahrenheit and 60% humidity.

Every day, the Israeli military is slaughtering and starving Palestinians in Gaza, all with the full backing and ongoing funding of the Trump administration.

Trump just announced a $510 million weapons sale to the Israeli military. These are US-made bombs that will be dropped on schools, refugee camps, homes, and hospitals.

From Palestine to the US, we are in the same fight against those who are putting profit, land, and power over people’s lives. As much as they can and will take from us, we have to ensure that we won’t let ourselves be divided. More than ever, it’s all of us or none of us.

Make no mistake, the Trump administration’s biggest priority is the billionaires and corporations. Many of the same ones that are profiting off of the Israeli genocide in Gaza are the same ones poised to rake in even more money off the backs of working people here in the US.

This comes just two days after Trump approved an over $500 million arms deal for the Israeli military to buy US made bombs, which will be used to slaughter starving Palestinians in Gaza.

Millions of Americans will lose vital services in what will be the largest one-time transfer of wealth in human history, from the working class to the ultra wealthy.

Today, the House passed Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” which will slash billions of dollars to SNAP, Medicaid, and solar energy programs, while also cutting taxes for the rich.
