Congratulations to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social!
You ignited a grassroots campaign, built on the radical idea that everyone deserves to live in dignity.
This is a seismic victory — not only for the people of New York, but for all those who believe that humanity & hope can prevail.

When Trump calls climate change a "con job," he is representing his fossil fuel billionaire friends, not science.
Climate change is REAL. It is an existential threat to the planet and future generations.
We must transform our energy systems away from fossil fuels.

The Israelis say they can kill Anas al Sharif because he was once in a picture with a Hamas leader.
If your weird illegal argument is that it is permissible to kill anyone who is photographed next to a leader of US-terror-designated group, then I have some bad news for you.

More and more Democrats in Congress understand that spending billions of taxpayer dollars to starve children in Gaza is not acceptable.
It’s time Republicans came on board.
No more military aid to Netanyahu’s war machine.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

1 year ago, we made history in Islington North.
We built a people-powered campaign for equality, sustainability and peace.
As we look toward the future, just remember: when we come together, we can win.

The United States must not be drawn into Netanyahu’s illegal war against Iran.
I will be introducing legislation to prohibit the use of federal funds for any use of military force in or against Iran without specific Congressional authorization, with an exception for self-defense.

Trump said Gavin Newsom was “causing a lot of death” at the LA protests, but thankfully no one has died that we know of. He’s inventing carnage to justify military force. This is dangerous delusion.

Pretty simple rule of thumb when wondering why the Trump administration does anything is to ask two questions:
1) is it racist?
Or
2) are they stupid?
Tends to cover most Trump administration stuff.
