True: @zohranmamdani lives in 1 unit of rent-stabilized housing.

Also true: Andrew Cuomo oversaw the loss of 96,064 units of rent-stabilized housing. And killed NYC’s program helping people move out of shelter.

Leaders must show moral clarity. Andrew, time to move out. 🧵

This miserable fraud has poisoned the national conversation about lifesaving vaccines with his conspiracy theories, but he is also doing so much more to destroy science and progress.

This will grind lifesaving research to a halt and set us back decades for no good reason.

The cuts add to mounting evidence that Kennedy is pursuing an aggressive anti-vaccine agenda.

I covered the Obama WH. Tapper, Chuck Todd and lots of other big names were in the briefing room then. I can assure you they would have been on it nonstop had Obama launched a program for kids alongside a registered sex offender.

So why don’t they give a shit now?

ICE detention facilities violate basic civil rights, but they also pose a threat to public health.

At least 7 confirmed cases of tuberculosis have been discovered at an ICE facility in Tacoma.

One of the confirmed cases had been transferred to Alaska, where the ACLU has reported 35 cases

when RFK says he wants to “end chronic disease,” what people hear is “he wants to cure us” but what he means is “i want to cull the weak”
Republicans are waging a generalized war on science, but I think many of them don’t fully grok that RFK isn’t at war with science alone or per se: he’s at war with sick people, and of the view that only the lucky should be allowed to survive into old age. They are know nothings, he is Mengele.
RFK Jr. has now officially stated that he will dismantle the United States Preventive ServicesTask Force (USPSTF).

This is an independent body of expert scientists who volunteer their time to review data and provide guidance to Americans on important things like cancer screenings.

The Big Beautiful Bill gives Meta a $15 billion check.

That’s more than our federal government spends on child care in an entire year.

If we invested that much in child care & early childhood education, we’d create stronger futures for everyone, not just Mark Zuckerberg.

Yet another example of why ICE must be abolished. Why would any sensible country keep around a security force like this? It doesn't even matter what your views are on immigration, this entire agency and all of its staff needs to go.

Back in May, Carrboro became the FIRST municipality to proclaim itself a 4th Amendment Workplace. For months now, members of Siembra NC and Make NC Work volunteers have been connecting with business owners across the state to defend the constitutional rights that we ALL have.

Happy 8th anniversary to our Why We Call video — and it’s still, for better or worse, deeply relevant!

Hear from NYC electeds about why calls are important.

Share w people who find calling their reps to be nerve wracking or think their calls don’t matter!

We could have had this… (1/2)
Recently met a HS grad whose Americorps job suddenly disappeared when the entire program was axed in April. 2025 budget for it was $1.3 billion. When he got the news, he was on his way to Texas to paint low income houses. He'd been helping people living in poverty to prepare tax returns before that.
Trump's megabill includes $45 billion for the construction of immigrant detention facilities.

To put that in perspective, the Los Angeles Clippers' Intuit Dome, one of the most expensive sports arenas in the world cost $2 billion.

Trump has enough to build 22 Intuit Domes.

If you’re an elected Democrat (rightly) complaining about the GOP kicking 17 million people off of Medicaid, now is a good and credible time to critique the entire broken work-based non-universal US healthcare system. Now is the time to call for universal healthcare, for Medicare for All.

All due disrespect but any Democrat who is asked about the thing Mamdani never said and gave a reasonable answer to with anything other than "rather than address something he never said lets talk about how Republicans are canceling medicare" or literally any one of a million other things is insane.
