The entire right-wing propaganda machine came after Zohran Mamdani.

The president and his allies came after him.

Democratic leaders, by and large, did not have his back until the last minute.

He still won, turning out historic numbers and inspiring young voters.

His politics can win anywhere.

An Oregon woman, a U.S. citizen, was detained by ICE for approximately seven hours. Federal agents smashed her car window and arrested her after she took photos of their vehicles.

The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.

It didn't matter.

Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

Seems like a good time for the Speaker of the House to swear in Rep. Grijalva.

NEW: "When cops, or in my case retired cops, return to the streets, not holding the line against protesters, but standing with them, it’s a sign that the times have gotten truly dangerous."
From Police Officer to Protester
America’s cops must take a stand for democracy, now.

Stay in line!

Stay in line!

Stay in line!

No matter what happens, no matter how long it takes, you must stay in line if you haven’t voted yet!

And this is why you should consider changing your traditions and vote early in some capacity going forward

*sarcasm* Wouldn't want folks to be able to pay taxes - without having to pay 💰 MORE to pay their taxes to folks who hire lobbyists.

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Sam Corcos, who entered government with DOGE earlier this year, decided to kill DirectFile after one meeting with with tax software lobbyists.

Some on here occasionally recommend I go back and take a high school government class. Heading to South Kansas City this morning to do just that!

I imagine texts have changed a bit since the 90s/early 00s, but reading up a bit for prep.

Just went to vote and was behind a gentleman who voted for the first time. Cheers and applause went up.

🚨BREAKING: Maine voters rejected a Republican-backed ballot initiative Tuesday that would have imposed new photo ID rules and severely limited mail-in voting — a decisive win for voting rights advocates who said the measure threatened to upend the state’s tradition of accessible elections.

@altssa.altgov.info Shout out to the employees at the Philadelphia Social Security office. Professional, courteous and fast. Grateful for all our federal workers slogging it out during the shut-down.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

Tonight’s results come with side benefits; some not anticipated. In states eyeing gerrymandering, GOP legislators now have to think twice if they want to stay elected. Blue voices showed up. MAGA voters didn’t. They know what’s coming, and they’re bracing for the horror show to hit them in the mouth

Way to ho @Detroit !
Where else is this happening?

This isn’t a call-out—it’s a call to action.
Families are losing vital benefits and going hungry.
Farmers and ranchers, your hands feed this nation—now your help can too.
Donate surplus. Partner local. Feed the people.🌱

A seeming bit of history tonight as Ghazala Hashmi becomes the first Asian American to win statewide office in Virginia - and the first Muslim woman to win statewide office *anywhere* in the United States.

Democrat Alvin Bragg who took on Trump has defeated Republican Maud Maron and independent Diana Florence in the Manhattan district attorney’s race.

Omg.. c'mon media, when you ask "Why did the president pardon someone who he claims not to know", and they answer, "I haven't seen that." The follow-up is "Well now you know, so what do you have to say"?

This is just ludicrous. "I don't know" is basically "I dont care".
