It’s outrageous for a NYC politician to dismiss union leadership and advocacy as “no record of accomplishment.” @LincolnRestler’s comments are an insult to working people and union members across this city. The workers and leaders of the @UAW deserve respect, not contempt.

At the AFL-CIO convention, UAW President Shawn Fain talked about the importance of unions running their own members for elected office, and UAW in particular has been recruiting many of their own members to run recently.

BREAKING: @UAW Constitutional Convention just approved a resolution in support of running our own members for office and year round political work to fight for working class Easiest way to start is our 12 canvasses between now and E-day for @claireforny act.clairevaldezforcongress.…

"No one's boosted Latino politics like DSA" – @elivalentinNY has a narrative-busting op-ed pointing out that NYC-DSA is doing more than most to get Latina politicians elected. Read it in @CityAndStateNY: cityandstateny.com/opinion/2…

A lot of armchair generals on here are *this close* to learning that the loser pays the indemnities at war's end

This little quip is incoherent, but even taken at face value it fails when you investigate and discover that the Republican Party has run more than a few Klansmen over the last half century

Replacing the rainbow with something even gayer.. the French

"It’s an entire nation out there that is responsible. It’s not true this rhetoric about civilians not aware, not involved. It’s absolutely not true. ... And we will fight until we break their backbone." -Israeli Pres Isaac Hergoz a few months before Wiener took this pic w him

Melat Kiros' sold out rally in Denver with Hasan Piker has been cancelled by multiple venues after pressure from incumbent congresswoman Diana DeGette Kiros will now lead a protest at the Colorado State Capitol with Donavan McKinney and Justin Pearson

.@MelatKirosCO was going to have a rally with @Justinjpearson, @DonavanMI13, & @hasanthehun right now but all the venues & vendors canceled their contracts last minute after what seems like calls from Diana DeGette's real estate lobby friends. But you can't silence a movement.

Just got a mailer attacking Claire from @ReynosoBrooklyn, citing right wing slop to back up their bs Attacking Claire with the help of Rupert Murdoch is a really good example of what his campaign is all about

Scott Wiener has used whatever pulpit he has to defend Israel to the hilt for years and years well before October 7 and it’s ridiculous for people to pretend otherwise because upzoning. he’s running for the US Congress not the San Francisco Planning Commission

This nails it on the head: California elections take forever because we match signatures to appease right-wing weirdos

i think its very odd no one has brought up that Antonio Reynoso and Ritchie Torres used to be best friends on City Council, even going on a propaganda trip to Israel together immediately after Israel's 2014 attack on the Gaza Strip that killed thousands

It would be less embarrassing to believe in the Tooth Fairy than this

People only hate Elon Musk because he comes from an emerald mining fortune made in apartheid South Africa, he buys ideas and pretends he’s an inventor, he’s a white supremacist, union-busting, abusive employer, he’s hoarding $1T in stolen wages, he makes us ashamed to be human,

Reason #1,000,000,000,000 why we should tax the rich.

🇺🇸 🇵🇸 Sama Safi, a 20-year-old American citizen and honors psychology student at Birzeit University, remains in Israeli detention after soldiers seized her from her family’s home near Ramallah at 3 a.m. on June 2, with lawmakers warning her life is at risk. Safi, whose family lives in Florida, was taken without charge and transferred to Ofer prison, then to the Moscovia interrogation center in Jerusalem, according to the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society. Her family says she has a chronic condition that causes fevers up to 105°F and requires daily medication and a quarterly injection she travels abroad to receive. She was one of five Palestinian women detained that week, including two members of the Palestinian women’s national football team. The Israeli military said the women were suspected of “promoting terrorist activities.” Rep. Rashida Tlaib and Sen. Chris Van Hollen have both demanded her release. “I am really sick and tired of the Israeli government taking American taxpayer dollars and then mistreating Americans,” Van Hollen said. Israel has not told her family or the U.S. embassy where she is being held. Rep. Tlaib said, “Her life is at risk—our government must free her now!”

Elon Musk could build hospitals. He could fund schools and universities. He could help eradicate diseases. Instead he uses his wealth to fuel hate.

A young woman from Germany vanished without a trace 11 years ago. Now, her name makes several appearances in the Epstein files. Her family wants to finally learn what happened to her. dlvr.it/TT0sB4
