26 billionaires spent over $22 million to beat Zohran Mamdani.
Why? Because regular people came together around an agenda that prioritized making life easier for more people. It beat big money.
That is how we win.

Mere months ago, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social was polling at 1 percent—right next to “Someone Else.” Tonight, he was elected New York City’s newest mayor.

If anyone needed another reminder of how deeply unpopular the Trump-MAGA Republican agenda is, tonight was the night.
But we cannot relent and we cannot become complacent.
The midterms are right around the corner.

So, why are people in Turkey and South Korea, for example, fighting in the streets for democracy and against corruption, and Americans are not?

DOGE recommended firing workers at:
-FDA, which oversees Neuralink
-FAA, which oversees SpaceX
-USAID, which probed Starlink
-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.
"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Donald Trump says he loves Canada.
That's why he wants to destroy our nation.
In Canada our kids don't worry about being shot at school.
Our families don't go bankrupt if they get sick.
And Canada sure as shit doesn't let convicted perverts take over our government.
What do you think?

Trump is bragging that Canadians think so little of their own birth right that they are begging to join his gangster crew.
Looks like people in Canada aren't buying his bullshit.
The boycott is strong.
Do not spend one cent in America until the tyranny is gone.
Keep it up.

Listening to Trump explain how he plans to have Pete Hegseth occupy Gaza, displace Palestinians into Egypt & Jordan and build a Riviera-like resort playground for rich folk on the shores of the Mediterranean
And thinking about all those who couldn't hold their noses to vote for Kamala Harris 🤦🏻♂️

Yeah, I think this is good advice.
I’m sure Americans at home and abroad all feel safer tonight now that Trump announced with Bibi that the US is going to take over Gaza, level all the buildings, and forcibly remove the population.
Might want to cancel any vacation plans you may have had to Europe.

Donald Trump is threatening Canada with 25% tariffs but only 10% for China.
This isn't about trade. This is a thug trying to shake our nation down.
Canadians will not kiss the ring of the gangster from Mar-a-Lago.

Air traffic controller staff shortage at US airports? I will add that to the list of reasons I will not be flying to, through, or over the US for now. Does Canada have the same problem?

So, is Mastodon better? Is bluesky going to end up being just as problematic as Twitter and Facebook? No privacy, bots, and profit-driven...so eventually ads? I was excited because there are more people here, but I dunno. #gsky

#gsky Just seeing how this shows up when I add the hashtag. Still figuring out how all this works. I'm so happy that bsky is gaining momentum and there's a way for Gabriolans to communicate on things on a platform that isn't Zuckerberg's!
