Mamdani just played Trump without sacrificing immigrants, Muslims, workers, or the LGBTQ.

Trump did his transactional charm offensive, Mamdani countered without compromising.

He won big and this is the man the Democratic Establishment still won't embrace.

What more do people need to see?

Was MTG visited by 3 ghosts last night?
BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.

MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think that's fair criticism. And I would like to say, humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the toxic politics.

Thinking about the refusal of even Dem leaders around the country to tax the wealthy (or being stopped by the GOP) and I’m beginning to viscerally feel why the French Revolution was so violent.

The president of the most powerful nation on Earth is so terrified of the tales that an imprisoned sex trafficker can tell that he plies her with a comfort puppy and custom meals and is holding out the prospect of a pardon.
77 million people voted for this.

This is sickening.

I haven’t bought Starbucks in months. I even deleted my app, and believe me when I say that thing used to get a workout on the daily. #effStbx
Please share this far and wide!!

Starbucks workers are officially on strike, demanding an end to the company’s Unfair Labor Practices!!

REPOST if you stand with workers and promise to NOT BUY STARBUCKS while workers are striking!!!

We must Move Our Money, away from the forces of destruction aiding this regime & into our communities. From Thanksgiving to Cyber Monday, folks are collectively committing to avoid Target, Amazon and Home Depot. If this leaves you $ to spare, local food banks, shelters, & community groups need it.

This (and so much more) is horrific.
"When I picked up my granddaughter from the federal agents, she had a dirty diaper, a bruise on her face, and was developing a rash. She was exhausted and cried… My heart aches knowing this could happen to others, to my kids, or even me, despite being U.S. citizens.”

Voters across the country have chosen freedom over fascism - and sent a critical blow to this regime of the bullies, for the billionaires.
May these wins strengthen our resolve, power our resistance, and turbo charge our defiance.
Voters tonight said fuck this fascist shit. With Mamdani, they showed incredible courage to believe in change and a better future.

The work doesn’t end here, but everything begins with courage and if we are going to get out of this mess it’s going to take courage to believe in better.

Mamdani wins NYC! Suck it, Cuomo, you vile toad.

This!

Also, I TOLD people Fetterman was a garbage person in the primaries (y’all could’ve had Malcom Kenyatta for god’s sake) but did anyone listen to me? Only my husband and kids, none of whom vote in PA.
Tonight is good reminder that Democrats need to primary the shit out of disgraceful fraudulent traitor John Fetterman and get that piece of shit out of office for good.

Watching election returns tonight was a terrifying proposition after the extreme horror and trauma of 2024, but it’s going well so far! #hope #election2025

As we get closer to polls closing, cynics with large megaphones will do anything to discredit our free and fair elections.

Your vote is your voice. Don't let anyone silence it because an election isn't going their way.

Once again threatening us with a good time.
Johnson: "If they had no filibuster, they would pack the SCOTUS. You'd go from 9 to 17 or however many liberals they could pack. You would make DC & Puerto Rico into states, which would give 4 additional Democrat senators & make us a permanent minority. You'd see massive restrictions of 2A rights"
