Labeling and tracking kids as “gifted” in kindergarten when many of them are just 4 years old is absolutely bonkers and representative of everything that is wrong with America.

Wow she sounds like an awesome, mostly private person who still speaks out publicly about the most important moral issue of our day.

They had a plant on this 300-person call (I was on) and all they uncovered was camaraderie, mutual respect and a genuine passion for fighting fascism. There’s no hidden agenda to “uncover” bc the agenda is just economic and social equality & rights (including for Palestinians).

The “rent control is bad” crowd has found this, even though it’s been Zohran’s leading issue for 8 months now. They literally care more about the profits of slumlords than they do preventing tens of thousands of people move out of NYC or becoming homeless. Moral demons.

Mamdani wants to fine landlords who can’t immediately fix “dangerous conditions”, and if the city has to step in and make the repairs, they’ll take over the building if the landlord can’t pay them back.
Except Mamdani is also pushing for a rent freeze, and most landlords rely on rent increases to pay for those repairs.
So if they can’t raise rent and can’t afford to repay the city, they lose their buildings.
That’s how you slowly turn private property into government housing.
Call it what it is: a step toward communism. 👇

It’s awesome that AOC endorsed Zohran, for him, for her, for the left and for thr City. It’s all around good. Period. But acting like all of the people who criticized her for not endorsing earlier were just whiny and clueless doesn’t follow at all.

This isn’t what “losing” a child means. The only thing that is “lost” is the unfair, socially-created expectations in the parent’s mind. If you as a parent need some time to mourn that loss, you do it privately away from your kid, & then you love them & act like a fucking adult.

Muscular anti-racist man join DSA.
Man in the black and white flag mask biked in circles around the Zohran Mamdani presser in Jackson Heights calling the mayoral candidate “a terrorist.” After a minute or two of that, this muscular man screams at him to get out of here with his bigoted shit.

Update?
Mexico’s president won elections with the campaign slogan “First the poor.”
Halfway into his mandate, AMLO has maintained his popularity by handing out cash transfers, no strings attached.
But the plight of the poor has worsened under his watch

I would argue that being able to complain about something that is personally inconvenient but beneficial to society and then ultimately going along with that thing is the sign of a morally mature person who is able to look past just their own selfish perspective and interests.

One thing some people may not realize is that Hochul removing Adams now (or for next few weeks) would really undermine Zohran’s entire campaign bc it would trigger an earlier, non-partisan special election. He’s calling for it anyway bc it is the right thing to do for our city.

The NYC center and right clearly now realizes Zohran has a serious shot at winning. They are becoming increasingly unhinged, racist and desperate in their claims and allegations. Constantly posting about him. But the lack of a single cohesive counter-narrative is telling.

Our city is in crisis. And New Yorkers are sick of being told not to believe their lying eyes. Every subway rider knows first hand the problem is real.
As Governor, I dispatched police to the subway when the city and DSA-supported politicians refused to. No rider should feel unsafe . No troubled individual should live like this.
Change is possible with effective leadership.
And it starts on Day 1.

I think DSA members (myself included) should try to wear masks at big events. I also think we should stop derisively dismissing people asking for us to do that out of hand, even when they are admittedly incredibly obnoxious and unproductive in the way they do it.

The 2026 NYC DSA electoral cycle will be insane. At the state level we will probably have at least:
1. Zohran’s seat
2. Ramos
3. If she primaries Ramos, JGR’s Assembly seat.
4. E*n H*****y, the rematch.
Then at the federal level:
5. Goldman
And these are just the obvious ones.

For the record, Zohran has defended pro-Palestine protesters and condemned the NYPD’s brutal tactics against them on multiple occasions. Anyone who says otherwise is lying.
The NYPD violently manhandled protesters yesterday in my district—this is unacceptable.
It’s also emblematic of how the NYPD has systematically cracked down on pro-Palestine protests across NYC—arresting minors and physically assaulting protesters.

It’s really simple. Raise taxes on the wealthy. Yes Zohran can’t do that unilaterally but the same is true for many of the proposals of other candidates.

Whether it’s children whose parents are from Guatemala born in the U.S. or jews whose parents (or grandparents) are from Eastern Europe living in Israel, kids shouldn’t be forced to leave the land they were born in out of right-wing ideas of racial or ethnic purity.
Refusing to serve in a genocidal army but still occupying land … Nothing heroic about this. How about he packs his shit and goes back to his original country?

This is bullshit. My son had very different test scores at age 4 & 1/2 than he did at 7 & 1/2. IQ at age 4 is quite unreliable for a large % of kids. Also, teaching, parental involvement & home and neighborhood environment (especially abuse or poverty) have huge impacts.

I'd vote for Chris Van Hollen over Beshear, Walz, Whitmer, Buttigieg, Shapiro, Newsom or basically anyone not named Rashida Tlaib. VH believes Palestinians and undocumented immigrants are people who deserve human rights, and that's more than I can say for the rest of them.

Completely wrong. AOC’s endorsement would still be immensely beneficial to Zohran among lower attention voters.
No, the reality of this race is she missed the window to matter. There are 0 AOC fans on the fence about Zohran. In April she could have said "no Cuomo for mayor" and raised $1m for an IE against him. She toured America with Bernie instead. She owns this if Cuomo wins.

If you disagree with this you are a bigot, sorry/not sorry.
👀 Zohran Mamdani on why he refuses to recognize Israel as a ‘Jewish’ state:
“I'm not comfortable supporting any state that has a hierarchy of citizenship on the basis of religion or anything else…. Equality should be enshrined in every country in the world. That's my belief.”

Why didn’t you center them during your speech?
Just as we must honor the humanity of hostages, so too must we center the humanity of the 40,000 Palestinians killed under Israeli bombardment.
To deny that story is to participate in the dehumanization of Palestinians. The @DNC must change course and affirm our shared humanity.
