May 2025: DoorDash spends $1 million to stop a democratic socialist from winning the mayoralty September 2026: DoorDash reaches a $131.5 million settlement with NYC's democratic socialist administration and admits to massive wage theft This is what's possible when you vote DSA

Following New York City lobbying push, DoorDash spends $1M on Cuomo's mayoral bid

The donation marks the largest of any in the crowded Democratic primary for New York City mayor.

Since 2023, more than 200,000 Dashers in New York City were underpaid or paid late under the City’s delivery worker pay rules. These errors were unintentional, but that doesn’t make them acceptable. Dashers should be paid in full, on time, every time. We take full responsibility, and we’re deeply sorry.

We’ve reached a $131.5 million settlement with the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection. Every impacted Dasher will receive the amount they are owed, and they’ll be contacted directly with payment details.

We understand the impact of even one missed or late payment. We’ve addressed the issues that caused these errors and made changes to prevent them from happening again.

The Republican Party hates us. Their leaders despise all minorities and want us dead, deported, or languishing in concentration camps. Our top priority is the total defeat and humiliation of this fascist, white supremacist party at every level of government across the country.

Providence's Federal Hill neighborhood is its Commie Corridor. David Morales beat Mayor Smiley 80-20 across these two precincts, with turnout spiking by a whopping 75% compared to 2022 📈 AIPAC Senator Jack Reed received <44% of the vote here against 2 left-wing challengers 👀

This logic would be destructive if applied to DSA's broader electoral project. Our voter base is primarily young college-educated renters; it's how we elected Zohran, Claire, Chris Rabb, etc. Should we not have endorsed them because of “demographic stereotypes”?

And now, as a coalition forms around her, is this the one that we see ourselves reflected in? She has support from wealthy Hollywood liberals like Natalie Portman, conservative unions like the Carpenters, grad student unions, and overwhelmingly white and wealthy liberal communities like Los Feliz. She has catered more to the Silverlakes than the Latino barrios in the Valley, on the East Side, or our Black and Brown communities in South Central.

DSA is strongest when we unite the working-class. We cannot build a durable base for socialism in Los Angeles with only the most well-off and educated constituents. Raman’s campaign pits an affluent, primarily white progressive bloc against Black Los Angeles and the largely Latino labor movement.

If DSA doubles down on supporting Raman in mobilizing and engaging this coalition, we also double down on the demographic stereotypes about DSA—that we are white, highly educated, “not working-class,” subcultured transplants. Her platform focuses on technocratic solutions like the theoretically best possible zoning policies rather than building power for the working-class by challenging capital. Instead, we should focus on campaigns that ground us in the lived realities and daily experiences of the broader multiracial working class in LA. This decision is not just another endorsement decision—it is truly a fork in the road for DSA-LA.

My friend Ben is managing democratic socialist @davidmoralespvd.bsky.social's campaign for Mayor of Providence. He spoke with @steveahlquist.bsky.social about what it will take to unseat the incumbent (pro-Flock camera, anti-rent stabilization, and literal AIPAC donor) mayor.

If you sit this one out, David Morales will not be the next Mayor of Providence

“It’s now or never, you know what I mean?” said Morales’ campaign manager Ben Shanahan. “David is an exceptional person. He’s somebody I’m incredibly proud to have spent time with.”

I’ve passed by this Astoria mural under Hell Gate many times, but this is the first time that none of these four names hold elected office. All four have been succeeded by socialists: Crowley -> AOC Constantinides -> Cabán Gianaris -> Kawas (soon) Simotas -> Mamdani -> Moreno

In January 2020, Lori Zeno yelled at then-Assembly candidate Zohran Mamdani (protesting with me, Katelin, the late Carl Stubbs, and others) and called us liars. She’s since busted her public defenders’ union, admitted to stealing $400,000, and is now going to prison.

I can't make it tonight, but I strongly encourage folks to attend tonight's Crown Heights fundraiser for David Morales, running for mayor of Providence against the incumbent, a literal AIPAC donor who recently vetoed rent stabilization. Let's elect a socialist instead!

Zohran won Ozone Park 2-to-1 last year. NYC-DSA candidates continued that success on Tuesday. Claire won it 46-32, while David Orkin held incumbent Jenifer Rajkumar to a 45-55 win. Both Claire and David hit 50% in the most Bangladeshi precinct; David actually got more raw votes.

So the candidate who called to execute Biden won her race & will be a Queens Civil Court judge. Milner is a conspiracy theorist/anti-vaxxer who calls LGBT books “filthy pornographic smut.” Her name was 2nd on the ballot & she came in 1st place in every Black precinct in Queens.

The only demographic groups with majority support for additional funding to Israel are: 1. Voters who approve of Trump (68%) 2. Republicans (66%) 3. Trump voters (62%) 4. Voters 65+ (53%) The West and Northeast are the least pro-Israel, while the South is the most pro-Israel.

In 2022, I helped catch Jenifer Rajkumar forging petition signatures. Four years later, she’s doing the same thing, but even more brazenly, because she has zero respect for her constituents or anyone but herself. Shameful.

Extremely strong performance by Nida Allam tonight. Foushee is an AIPAC incumbent who bolted left in the last few years, even signing onto Block the Bombs—and she's STILL within less than a point of losing her primary. Any incumbents still riding with Israel should be terrified.
