Mamdani: "When I make criticisms of PM Netanyahu, they are criticisms of PM Netanyahu. And what I shared were not even frankly personal assessments, they were objective facts ... it's a city where everyone needs to know that their belonging to it is not conditional on how they feel about the mayor."

stuff like this is why one important avenue for court reform is just nixing the shadow docket altogether and forcing these people to explain themselves to the public when they issue orders. also, making their records property of the united states and subject to publication when they leave the bench.

Maybe it’s just me but I think if Mitch McConnell’s head is filled with inactive tissue and his body is being kept artificially alive by machines, we should have a mechanism that makes him also not a sitting US senator anymore.

Credible allegations of sexual assault cannot be ignored. Voters in Maine deserve a choice for US Senate that doesn’t force them to make a moral compromise between sexual violence or corporate servitude.

Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @mayor.nyc.gov · 25/06/2026
The Supreme Court just launched one of the largest attacks on immigrants in modern American history. Thousands of Haitians and Syrians now risk losing the right to live and work in the country they call home.

This decision will cause enormous pain across the five boroughs. Here in New York, it falls hardest on our Haitian community, one of the largest in the country, alongside Syrian families.

I joined labor leaders with 1199SEIU, elected officials, and advocates to send a clear message to immigrant New Yorkers: You belong here. We will not turn our backs on you.

The Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs will share additional information and resources soon. If you have questions about your status or need legal assistance, call our Immigration Legal Support Hotline at 800-354-0365.

As a reminder for everyone saying, "The US had never before scored four goals in a World Cup" that they mean the men's team had never before scored that many. The women's team has absolutely scored more than four goals in a world cup, including in the final. And they also wins things.

If you can’t tax billionaires & trillionaire because “its unrealized gains until they cash out,” then stop letting them leverage that wealth for loans, as collateral, or as equity. If it’s not real enough to tax—it shouldn’t be real enough to leverage. Abolish billionaires—Protect working people.

Did you know the 1st time terrorists used planes to attack Americans wasn't 9/11 or Pearl Harbor? It was the Tulsa Race Massacre when white supremacists flew planes to drop bombs on Black Americans. This week marks 105 yrs since one of the most underrecognized acts of racial violence in US history.

President Trump and Secretary of Education Linda McMahon are weakening students’ ability to challenge discrimination. Congress must intervene to demand that the Department of Education ensures equal educational opportunities for all students.
Black text: "By dismantling the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights, the Trump administration is hollowing out the main federal avenue to protect students from discrimination.
Since 2025 began, the agency has reached: 78% fewer resolutions for civil rights violations overall; 78% fewer disability resolutions; 0 resolutions involving sexual harassment or violence, racial harassment, or discriminatory school discipline; 0 resolutions in 15 states and Puerto Rico.

Mamdani has demonstrated something that Democrats have largely forgotten. You can't just do good things for voters and expect to be rewarded for it. You have to tell them about it, over and over again. You have to advertise your work in office just as much as you did on the campaign to win it.
