Every single democrat in Congress should be ready to fight like this. Zohran’s campaign is inspiring people beyond the city of New York. The Democratic Party should not just be taking notes, but fundamentally shifting gears to meet this moment.

We believe that in the wealthiest city in the wealthiest nation in the history of the world, working people deserve a dignified life.

And to the billionaires who think this movement is an existential threat to their corruption of our democracy: you're right.

Republicans in Congress have done nothing to stop inflation or lower costs. Nothing to help families. Nothing to make housing more affordable or transit more reliable.

Men are posing as immigration officers to intimidate, kidnap and assault women.

When government officials snatch people off the streets without a warrant or showing a badge, it emboldens criminals to do the same.
msmagazine.com/2025/...
Men Are Impersonating ICE to Attack Immigrant Women. MAGA Emboldened Them.
Multiple men have been arrested in at least three states since President Donald Trump's inauguration for allegedly posing as immigration enforcement officers to perpetrate sexual violence against immigrant women.The Trump administration is emboldening and reinvigorating such violence by providing more tools to harm women of color, including both systemic tools (mass detention and deportation) and a cover for any man looking to kidnap immigrant women in broad daylight.

This is a nightmare especially for women seeking an abortion or treatment for a miscarriage, but also opens the door for states to ban any medicine for political reasons. If a rightwing state wants to ban measles or covid vaccines based on zero science, they can do it. Republicans are terrible!

So the Supreme Court said Biden couldn't cancel student loans without Congress, but Trump can dismantle the entire fucking Department of Education?

Big Tech is building massive data centers, and 40% of the planned and existing centers across the US are in areas with "extremely high" or "high" water scarcity.

Mounting evidence points to these data centers exacerbating water shortages across the country.

Unbelievable. Just days after the tragic flooding in Texas, NOAA is demanding that public TV stations remove equipment from towers that is critical for these stations to send weather alerts. Trump’s ideological crusade against public broadcasting will cost lives.

So far in 2025, more flood warnings have been issued by the National Weather Service than any year on record (since 1986). Monday was no exception, with 96 flood warnings across the country, the most of any July calendar day. Invest 93L threatens to continue the trend this week. More ⬇️
