@jasgripper.bsky.social from the @nywfp.bsky.social. Huge respect for the NYWFP for pushing the #RankTheSlate initiative during the mayoral primary that laid the groundwork for the Mamdani/Lander partnership and a lot of progressive solidarity you see in NYC now.

This is a total non-starter and every Democrat should fiercely oppose it. Authorizing a single dollar more for this illegal war would be unconscionable (much less $200B more!). If your congressmember isn’t raising all sorts of hell to stop this, then it’s time to replace them.

Donald Trump, alongside Benjamin Netanyahu, has launched a dangerous and illegal war that will put working people here at home and across the world in grave danger.

@speakercarlheastie.bsky.social knows what's up. The Federal Budget Scam serves the rich, and the rich alone. New Yorkers are more than ready to #TaxTheRich. It's time for them to pay their fair share.
A screeenshot of a twitter post from Politico reporter Jeff Coltin. There's a photo of Zohran Mamdani and NY Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie standing at a podium outside with news station microphones on the podium and a Zohran for New York City sign on the podium too. The tweet says: 

Would you help Mamdani raise taxes on millionaires, pass free child care and free buses, Heastie is asked?
“All of the above,” Heastie said. 
“Millionaire taxes poll extremely well,” he adds. “With the Big Disgusting Bill, the rich are getting richer with that bill.”
