Shubh Deepavali! Wishing everyone a very happy Diwali.

Across our city, families are lighting diyas and celebrating the triumph of light over darkness and hope over despair.

New York shines brighter tonight because of the people who bring their light and traditions home.

So in western Alaska, thousands of people are homeless due to flooding rains, one person is dead & two people are missing. But yet, the regime hasn't said a word, no thoughts or prayers, nothing.
Once again, they could care less about Americans, it's about enriching themselves through GREED.

Californians, this is it. In honor of the No Kings protests and to protect democracy, get that Prop 50 ballot in and vote YES.

Remind your friends, your family, and everyone you know—democracy only works if we do.

Today in history, 1796: An editorial is published accusing presidential candidate Thomas Jefferson of having a sexual relationship with one of his slaves. The editorial was published under the pseudonym “Phocion,” and has often been attributed to Alexander Hamilton. /1

Based on this DNA evidence, as well as oral history and other documentation, the Thomas Jefferson Foundation at Monticello concluded in 2000 that Jefferson was the father of at least Eston Hemings and most likely all of Hemings’s children. This overturned decades of denial by many historians. /7

The way Trump and Mike Johnson are handling the shutdown isn’t acceptable or normal. When one party wants the votes of another party, you negotiate, you come to a compromise, and pass a bill. That is Schoolhouse Rock! And it’s how things should be.

Children are dying because Trump gutted USAID and cut lifesaving foreign aid — even though it took up less than 1% of the U.S. budget.

Meanwhile, he's preparing to dole out $40 billion to prop up Argentina's failing economy, all to help out his authoritarian pal.

Priorities.

Spotify’s founder, Daniel Ek, is another techno-fascist billionaire.

He’s invested in AI that specializes in war, surveillance and violence, so it’s no surprise he’s fine with running ICE ads on Spotify.

If you haven’t already, cancel your Spotify subscriptions. Let’s make them feel like Disney+.
