If we play our cards right, tonight can be a turning point.

If we play our cards right, tonight can count for more than a dopamine hit.

Tonight wasn’t about blue stopping red. It was the working class stopping the ruling class, & that feels good.

But it doesn’t have to stop here. It shouldn’t.

We don't merely get to celebrate Mamdani winning. We get to celebrate Cuomo losing. Again.

Zohran Mamdani is the new Mayor of New York City!

The people chose change.

They voted in record numbers and proved that all the money in the world isn’t a substitute for class.

They want progressive policies that benefit everyone.

They want affordability.

They want a compassionate leader.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.
The voters were doing so well tonight...until #DWTS.

How is that man still here?!
NYC, New Jersey, and Virginia 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I think when you realize that Jordan is still a student-athlete while filming the show she's even more impressive #DWTS

Lots of “never Trumper” encomiums to Cheney today. So who was Dick Cheney? The most powerful & dangerous Vice-President in our history, leading us into an unnecessary war, violating legal & political norms, & expanding his own office and secrecy to harmful proportions.

The thing about making being "Woke" worse than being a Nazi is that the people who listen to you are going to conclude that being a nazi is ok, since unlike the former it has fewer social consequences among their peers

I often think about how Cheney wanted revenge for what happened to Nixon, and how we live in the ruins made by that dream.

So many people were detained extrajudicially, were tortured, or died because of Dick Cheney. You can't get to the danger we're in now without everything he did. The weapons he helped forge are ones we need to take away from U.S. presidents forever.

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

The attacks against Black women are sending a loud message: "Black women are not valued."

The problem with that is... we have value.

We're important to the economy.

We're parents.

We're educated.

We're community pillars.

We're people.

And undervaluing us will cost everyone. #TheDoubleTax
thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

For millions of Americans, today will bring the chance to be heard.

If there's an election where you live, then you get to send a message on the policies and leadership you believe in - and begin changing the trajectory of this country.

Making life necessities more affordable for low income folks is going to destroy our whole economic system?

Now there's a tell.

If you’re charitable, you’d say this version of America was built off infrastructure created by FDR and progressive taxation.

If you’re realistic, you’d acknowledge slavery, 3rd world exploitation, and underpayment of immigrant labor.

In no way could you credulously say it’s built on low taxes.

Let’s be clear, most EBT users are white. The reason he’s specifically lying about “weaves” and we’ve seen so many AI fakes of Black women ranting about food stamps is they need to make BW the face EBT because they know many Americans don’t care if Black people suffer, and some actually wish for it.
ROB SCHMITT: People are using SNAP benefits to get their nails done, to get their weaves and their hair. This is a really ugly program.

SEN. RON JOHNSON: That program needs to be dramatically reformed.
