How did we go from the enormous possibility of 2020, when upwards of 26 million people took to the streets to condemn systemic racism and declare that Black lives matter, to the darkness wrought by Trump’s return?

What happened?
Heading into 2026, I feel a powerful defiance. I believe that to overcome dread, we have to earn our way through organizing.

And we will.

Let's get it 💪🏿 ➡️ @leahgreenberg.bsky.social @indivisible.org @moveon.org

When Zohran Mamdani won, pundits tried to say it was a fluke.

Joke’s on them. In Jersey City, voters not only turned out in force to elect a new mayor, but for the first time ever, the Jersey City Council will have a Working Families Party majority.

RESULT: James Solomon will be the next mayor of Jersey City.

Solomon, running on a more progressive lane with WFP support, has easily defeated the establishment candidate Jim McGreevey, the former governor who resigned in scandal two decades ago.

We're primarying John Fetterman.

Last week, Fetterman again sold out working Pennsylvanians. He was the deciding vote for a Republican budget bill that will strip healthcare from over 400,000 Pennsylvanians.

We deserve real working class leadership in the Senate, not a Trump-enabling Democrat.

What's great about it is not only that Zohran won, but *how* he won.

That obsession with creating a bigger 'we' is how we defeat authoritarianism.
"There is a hunger for a third space in American politics anchored to the interest of everyday people, labor unions, grassroots organizations, and activists coming from the grassroots," says @mauricewfp.bsky.social, explaining how Mamdani built his coalition. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLyc...

"People just want to know: Are you on the take? Are you taking this corporate money or not? Are you going to fight for me? Are you going to stand up against the status quo and the oligarchs? The people that are able to have one-word answers to those questions are able to command those crowds."

If you’re not a billionaire, @workingfamilies.org knows the chances are you’re also getting crushed by the cost of housing, health care, and groceries.

Yesterday's results are proof that when a candidate can speak to that (and mean it) they win.
November 5, 2025 at 3:20 PM
Every talking head is going to try to sell you the idea that
@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's win was a fluke.

But working people are sending a message: they WANT a politics that prioritizes them, not the billionaires.

I have family in Trinidad and would be horrified if someone I loved was executed without due process.

Trump admin is seeing what it can get away with. They want to push the envelope as far as it will go. And our global community is less safe for it.
