Now is the time to fight, not surrender. 🗣️

Schumer must step down from his post as minority leader and allow for new leadership to emerge—someone who is willing to consistently fight for the American people.
Progressive group MoveOn calls on Schumer to step aside
"Inexplicably, some Senate Democrats, under Leader Schumer's watch, decided to surrender."

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government.

She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her.

So I confronted him.

What keeps New Yorkers up at night are not the right-wing fever dreams of Andrew Cuomo.

It's whether or not they can keep living in the city they love.

I'm the only candidate on stage tonight with a vision for the future and a plan to bring down costs.

I love you all but as I’ve said before: social media is a Fisher-Price Steering Wheel.

Sure, the wheel turns and the horn works. But it’s not hooked up to anything.

Wie dag in dag uit haat zaait tegen migranten, moslims, asielzoekers, links en ‘antifa’, oogst geweld. Extreemrechtse politiek wakkert extreemrechts geweld aan. Dit is jullie oogst, jullie werk, jullie achterban. Bespaar ons jullie huichelachtige verontwaardiging.

Extreem-rechts zat achter rellen in Den Haag. Als er hooligans bij betrokken waren, zijn dat extreem-rechtse hooligans geweest. Laatste keer dat ik checkte ging de ‘demonstratie’ niet eens een beetje over voetbal of voetbalteams.

Sinds de val van het kabinet houden Liset van Dijk en ik alle tv-optredens van politici bij. We zijn gestart op 4-6 en volgen sindsdien systematisch welke politici in welke programma’s verschijnen.
Vandaag delen we de grafieken van 30-8 t/m 6-9.

We dienen een motie van wantrouwen in tegen Minister Veldkamp. Hij is al jaren medeplichtig aan genocide. Hij moet weg!

Erken de Palestijnse Staat, kom met snoeiharde sancties tegen Israël en trek de ondemocratische wet in die activisten criminaliseert en monddood maakt!

Wie wil zien hoe westerse media tekortschieten in de berichtgeving over Palestina, hoeft maar naar de berichtgeving van de NOS te kijken.

De asielwet is een frontale aanval op de mensenrechten. Op onze beschaving. Op medemenselijkheid.

Deze avond is het gevolg van het jarenlang ophitsen tegen mensen die vluchten voor oorlog en geweld.

De Tweede Kamer zit vol met ophitsers. En vol met mensen die te laf zijn daartegen op te staan.

I spent most of today seeking to meet with one of the many victims of ICE raids currently jailed in Downtown LA.

While @chrclla.bsky.social focuses its efforts on impact litigation, my team boosts efforts on the ground whenever possible.

What I saw speaks to the crisis in LA & beyond.

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid
