Shortly after Zohran Mamdani was anointed the mayor-elect of New York City on Tuesday, he strode onto the stage of a cavernous theater in Brooklyn and delivered a victory speech that celebrated New York’s immigrants, working class and young people. Follow live: nyti.ms/3X9h35I

Protecting his stock portfolio while ripping away health care from 17 million Americans.
This is Washington at its worst.
We need to ban Congressional stock trading.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

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.

I spent this morning in the garden moving mulch around. Then I picked some peonies for my partner. Am I a stereotype?

AOC: The math is not adding up. Their claim is that one million undocumented people are on Medicaid. So why are they trying to cut 13.7 million Americans off their healthcare?

I’ve never seen this clip before. I’ve also never pondered what she poses. Getting a group of Black women to burn a bus full of white children?
You couldn’t do it. And that’s a damning indictment of white womanhood.
