On Monday, Antonio Reynoso accused my campaign of inviting super PACs to attack him. No such ad ever appeared. Now it's Friday, and the first attack ad of this race is here: $250,000, from a super PAC backing Antonio, aimed at me.

It was lovely to welcome Jamaal Bowman, former New York City Congressman, to Áras Uí Chonghaile. Discussing the life and work of the iconic trade union leader James Connolly and his legacy in both the Irish and North American labour movements 🙌

We should fund schools, homes and hospitals here — not bomb them abroad. Our new ad, "Ceasefire," is now airing.

co-governance? in this economy? hate when my member of Congress is beholden to *checks notes* an affordability agenda

This is the team. This is our year. Get out and vote. Early voting starts June 13th and runs until June 21st. Election Day is Tuesday, June 23rd.

And the assist of the game: fig and olive who bundled the money that made this possible. For a long time the left has strived to organized money that could compete with the organized right. This is what it looks like when that comes to fruition.

UPDATE: Christian Menefee signed onto the Block the Bombs Act.

INBOX: New York Progressive Action Network, a statewide organization with ties to Bernie Sanders' 2016 presidential campaign, rescinded its endorsement of Rep. Adriano Espaillat and is backing @DarializaforNY for NY-13 instead, over disagreements over AIPAC and Gaza

If @AbdulElSayed wins this race he is going to really shake up the United States Senate - in a good way.

Reynoso is basically saying Hakeem Jeffries has more energy to retaliate against NY-7 residents than he does to stand up to Donald Trump. We are sick of being held hostage by a democratic establishment that you have to pledge fealty to or else.

The anti-genocide caucus grows. It indeed remains good policy and good politics!

We're electing a bold team in Congress that is unapologetically pro-Palestine, pro-working people, proudly anti-billionaire, and unafraid to challenge the establishment. And we're just getting started.

There's a new ecosocialist champion now

This year's state budget was a compromise — and deeply compromised by some of the Governor's agenda. But I was so proud to lead the effort to deliver $100 million in new funding to build out publicly-owned renewable energy right here in New York.

Two and a half years ago, Israeli leaders clearly stated their intent to carry out a genocide in Gaza. And that's exactly what they did. I was in the streets with so many New Yorkers protesting our complicity and to free Palestine. Antonio Reynoso stayed silent.

Bowman introduces Dr. Hamawy, to chants of his last name, and he gets up to tell his constituents: “We’ve made history!”

WE HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN Former Congressman Bowman. He is the Man‼️ @JamaalBowmanNY @RepBowman Congratulations 🎈the next America Muslim Congressman. He won the Primary by a Landslide. 🚨HE IS OUR HER0 for THE WORK HE DID in GAZA. 🎊🎉CONGRATULATIONS 🥳Dr Adam Hamawy. “ A trauma surgeon, US Army veteran and former medical volunteer in Gaza, has emerged as a leading contender of Primary. Hamawy launched his campaign after returning from a 2024 medical mission in Gaza, where he says he witnessed what he described as a genocide and later sought meetings with lawmakers in Washington to discuss conditions on the ground. “I could only define it as a genocide, because I saw the bodies of the people that came in,” Hamawy said, adding that he did not want US tax dollars funding the violence he witnessed. In the six months since entering the race, Hamawy has raised more than $1 million, the highest total among candidates in the crowded 12-way Democratic primary. He has secured endorsements from prominent progressive figures including Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar and Tammy Duckworth. His platform includes Medicare for All, an arms embargo on Israel, sanctions on Israel, abolition of ICE, cancellation of medical and student debt, codification of abortion rights, and dismantling the Department of Homeland Security. If elected, Hamawy would become the first Muslim elected to represent New Jersey in Congress. Born in Egypt and raised in New Jersey, Hamawy served as a combat surgeon in Iraq and was part of the medical team that saved Duckworth’s life after her helicopter was struck by a rocket-propelled grenade. During a 2024 medical mission to Ga-za, he spent nearly three weeks stranded after the Rafah crossing closed, working at the European Hospital in Khan Younis amid ongoing bombardment. His campaign has also faced scrutiny over his appearance as a defense witness in the 1995 trial of Omar Abdel-Rahman and his volunteer work in Bosnia during the 1990s. Hamawy has rejected criticism surrounding both issues, describing them as politically motivated attacks. “As a Muslim, they’re always going to find something to attack,” he said. “I’m used to this all my life.”

holy shit the actual quote is borderline nativist "The city belongs to the working men and working women of NYC...Not people that fly in from other states or other parts of the world to try and impose their failed ideology" nyc is built by immigrants! they’re the working class!

Brad Lander has objectively been the favorite since he launched, but just an absolutely devastating poll for Dan Goldman. I cannot recall a time in modern American political history in which an incumbent congressman was down 30 points without facing some sort of major scandal.
