In 2020, a young socialist organizer & AIAC contributor sat down with us, sharing his vision for a world that empowers working people over the rich and powerful.

Today, that vision has carried him to City Hall.

Congrats, Mayor @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social! 🌹 africasacountry.com/2020/01/roti...

Pope Leo XIV.: "Jesus says very clearly, at the end of the world we're going to be asked 'how did you receive the foreigner'? Did you receive him and welcome him or not? And I think that there's a deep reflection that needs to be made in terms of what's happening [in the US]".

"Mamdani is not a warning shot; he is a sign of things to come. Dem voters everywhere want transformative change. They’re furious at party’s leaders and suspicious of candidates backed by an establishment that gets everything wrong," writes @alexshephard.bsky.social. newrepublic.com/article/2027...

The Democratic Tea Party Is Here

The party’s base is energized and mad as hell. And their rage isn’t just aimed at Donald Trump.

PHILLIP: Republicans are saying that Chuck Schumer is afraid of you. Is he?

AOC: I don't think so. Sen. Schumer and I have worked together. I think Republicans are afraid of me and they project their fear onto him. So they're just telling on themselves when they say that.

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Our Nigerian Christian friend has been in US jail since May fighting deportation. There are concrete things Trump could do in the US for Nigerian Christians if he actually cared about them 🙃

Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social · 3d

yeah, the idea that Trump will stop Boko Haram types by ending aid to the Nigerian federal government is as confused as the idea that he is actually interested in the welfare of the same Nigerian Christians he put on a categorical travel ban 5 years ago

To be clear, YES, wealthy elites have been crafting the dominant narrative and selecting leaders that suit their means. But they did so by exploiting already baked in bias, prejudice, racism, and grievance that’s existed in America from ever since.
