BREAKING: NYC’s Mayoral election is on Tuesday. We encourage voters not to rank Zohran Mamdani. He didn’t endorse Kamala Harris, doesn’t support our platform, and if he wins, his policies will hurt our chance to win the midterms. We can’t afford that. For more: open.substack.com/pub/demwinsm...

Great statement from Sen. Sasha Renee Perez … ICE is becoming lawless.
If we had a president he would do something about this.
Instead, We have a limp dictator.

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium.
ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.
Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.
TODAY is the showdown.

Ping-pong paddle signage won’t beat back the techno-fascist revolution. To fight Musk’s vision, we need something deeper—solidarity, mutual aid, and a refusal to abandon each other. My latest:
The Anti-Empathy Revolution of Elon Musk
Musk views empathy as a “bug” that threatens his political agenda. This framing is instructive.

That Super Bowl was a gift for black artists. Kendrick showed us a way forward in this time of facism. Coded language. Storytelling. Aggressive humor and joy. Elevated artistry in the place of mere entertainment. Not obeying in advance. Saying the thing that respectability doesn’t want us say.
