If your city is next, mutual aid and neighborhood watch networks are the most important things to scale up, but whistles are a great tool to get people taking the first step.

NY doesn’t have caucuses we have closed primaries. But same deal. That’s why @nywfp.bsky.social wants us to stay registered as Democrats: so we can win the primaries like Zohran & AOC did.
Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.
Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.
One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

Sheldon remind me when did Chuck Schumer fight united with the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.

Hey so if you see your senator in this list, could you please call them tomorrow and tell them that you’re mad because they voted to kill the entire hemp farm industry, including your buddy Derek in Oregon?
Thanks, buddy.

The last thing I want is to negotiate, especially for healthcare! I want the doctor to tell me what I need to get healthy and then to either provide it or send me to a different doctor who will. That's it! That's all I need from this system!
nobody wants to negotiate and individuals negotiating with giant fucking corporations always get screwed. to hell with this.
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

I agree with this in principle, but also Mamdani *is* at least one in 500,000. He's just astoundingly fast, on point, personable, photogenic & he genuinely loves people AND he's done ALL the reading so you CANNOT trip him up.
YES, many more people can win than we imagine.
But he's still special.

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

Note that she's not blaming the Democrats who doomed us to this outcome yesterday.
We already know every Senate Republican is trash.
But we're SUPPOSED to be supported by our own D senators.
But they screwed us.
Murray isn't addressing that. Plank in your own eye, etc.

We're debating on the government funding package right now and every single Republican voted against a Democratic amendment to pass a clean, one-year extension of the ACA tax credits.
Republicans just don't care about your health care.
