Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Next year, Donald Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" will hand $67 BILLION of YOUR taxpayer dollars over to corporations for a single tax break.

Why? To "incentivize" research these companies did years ago.

Let that sink in. YOUR money being used to boost Amazon's profits even more.

No one should ever have to wonder if their senator or representative is making choices in Congress just to benefit their own wallet.

There's a clear solution: ban Congressional stock trading.

Apparently this dingus doesn’t know how to count, so let me make it plain

Your FIVE Repub seats in TX will be countered by 9 DEMOCRATIC seats in California

Then more in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, and others

Your shot of a Republican House ended today

Thanks for playing!

It is time that Democrats not only match what Republicans are doing with gerrymandering, but exceed it. Every Democratic controlled state needs to be looking to redrawing their maps -- not to gain 5 seats like in TX, but cumulatively 15, 20 or 30 seats. We must use every tool available.

I think a PBS passport is only 5 dollars a month in my area, much less than the streaming apps, and much better programming. Let’s all throw them some support.
PBS News is not going anywhere.

We will continue our work without fear or favor, as we have for nearly five decades on the air.

We are profoundly grateful to Viewers Like You for your loyalty and unwavering support.

I don’t like gerrymandering

But it’s insane to follow rules that Republicans do not

The result of the “high road” is Medicaid cuts, social security cuts, VA defunding, and so much more

Gerrymander them back and treat Repubs the same way they treat us

When they go low, PUNISH THEM!

If TX and Ohio want to redistrict Dems out of their seats, blue states must immediately get rid of “independent redistricting committees” and gerrymander the hell out of Republicans

No mercy

We have the population advantage

Watch how fast they stand down!

(We should’ve already done this)

Socialism is what they called public power. 

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Republicans want to spend taxpayer dollars telling Americans how to get pregnant, instead of investing in things that help parents and kids succeed.

Trump’s wealthy donors will weather his tariff storm just fine – while you pay more at the checkout line.

And don’t forget: they get a new round of big fat tax cuts, too.

It’s government for the rich, by the rich.

In this political moment, our city needs someone with the energy to stand up to Donald Trump and an inspirational vision of the most our city can be. That’s why I’m endorsing @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for mayor.

THREAD: There are a lot of questions about what we are doing and why we are challenging some incumbents at leaders we deserve- (No we are not just focused on primaries we also want to support young people running in red to blue seats to help win the majority)
