Look at this chart.

Thanks to Republicans, this is how much more families in New York will have to pay each month for their health insurance.
Please donโ€™t cave. This refusal to cave to the GOP is one of the few good things the Democrats have done. Donโ€™t mess this up by giving Trump what he wants just to end the shutdown

Re: municipal elections, I hope all my NYC friends vote Zohran. Not only cause he has an inspiring vision for the city, but also to serve notice to all cities (and the DNC) that having a platform to garner actual support - not merely to stave off an opponent - is the move forward.

"Asad Dandia, a New York urban historian who is part of Mamdaniโ€™s informal 'kitchen cabinet' that advises him, said many younger voters have only ever known Trump. But with Zohran's campaign, 'they get to be part of something that speaks to them.'" www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
'Our country has failed them.' Zohran Mamdani talks to USA TODAY about younger voters.
Early voting has appeared to skew towards older voters and Andrew Cuomo has gained in the NYC mayoral polls, making youth turnout key for Mamdani.

This morning, most of these Park Slopers were cheering on the marathon.

This afternoon, theyโ€™re knocking doors for Zohran.

Still time to join them: www.zohranfornyc.com/volunteer/ev...
So sorry . Happens every time I text or phone bank for pro worker candidates or issues. Thank you for all you do to GOTV

phone banking for Zohran today and I fully got yelled at for supporting a communist like it was 1952 and my interlocutor was the ghost of George Kennan (I'm not fussed, just fascinated in the academic sense by how long this specific shadow is in American politics)

I did the thing (voted)!!! Did not realize how much of an Auntie Outfit I had dressed myself in until taking this selfie at the cafe later lmao, but that seems fitting, as I'm pretty sure Zohran is going to carry the NYC auntie vote.

my husband could attest that i literally broke down in tears the other night because Zohran is campaigning the way i have been begging candidates to for the last twenty years.

almost all of them have been too afraid.
Zohran Mamdani campaigned a lot and appears not to hate the voters whose support he's seeking. Here's what other Democrats can learn from his unorthodox strategy.
Reposted by celestialtree โŒ๐Ÿ‘‘
heโ€™s right. the future of the democratic party is to become less popular, more staunchly pro-Israel, more violently right-wing. Zohran is popular and worse, promises positive change to his constituents. If the Dems became more like him, they might be forced to follow through on such promises.
Hakeem Jeffries says Zohran Mamdani is not the future of the Democratic Party.

The Twitter reaction to Zohran is truly insane. Youโ€™d think Mohammad Atta was the Democratic nominee
Includes: biggest coward in Florida politics ever
Also not included: speaking out against authoritarians, remembering his ancestors were immigrants

NEW: More than 100 federal judges have now rejected the Trump administrationโ€™s new policy to lock up nearly everyone facing deportation โ€” including 12 judges appointed by Trump, according to a POLITICO analysis.

Only 2 judges have sided with ICE.

More than 100 judges have ruled against the Trump adminโ€™s mandatory detention policy
A POLITICO review of the rulings shows judges appointed by every president since Ronald Reagan have rebuked the administrationโ€™s new interpretation of immigration law.

Iโ€™m just going to say itโ€ฆ

Itโ€™s pretty damn validating to hear Barack Obama say the same things weโ€™ve been shouting for months, and longer.

In a major victory, a court ruled the Trump administration must use emergency funds to provide food stamps to Americans.

It's scary how cute Park Slope was tonight.

Happy Halloween, NYC.
