Billionaires getting richer while the majority of people struggle to make rent isn't just "the way things are." It's a system they built. We can build something different.

Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @mayor.nyc.gov · 04/07/2026
Today marks 250 years since a small group of newspaper editors, farmers, and soldiers signed a document declaring our nation's independence — a truth that feels self-evident now but was revolutionary then.
What a privilege us Americans have, to live in a nation that every one of its inhabitants can shape. What an honor us New Yorkers have, to look out over our city's waters from the shores where so many Americans bravely entered their country for the first time.
Today and all days, let us remember that patriotism is not pretending our nation is without flaws. Patriotism is every act of righteous dissent — because loving our country means fighting for the best version of it.
Happy Fourth of July, New York City.

The Voting Rights Act is essentially dead and it’s quite possible that we will, like when a similar SCOTUS gutted civil rights at the fall of Reconstruction, see a disappearance of much of the Black congressional representation, especially in the most heavily Black states, which are in the South.

Top White House advisor Stephen Miller, the longtime architect of Donald Trump’s anti-immigration policies, asked Texas Republicans last week in a closed-door meeting to kick undocumented children out of public schools.
motherjones.com
They're already scared to come to school. Republicans want to kick them out for good.
A push by Stephen Miller and GOP lawmakers to challenge a landmark Supreme Court ruling would strip undocumented children of access to public education.

Unpaid TSA workers, huge spring-break crowds—yet again, the GOP and Trump administration have been caught without a plan to address a crisis of their own making.

What exactly will ICE do at airports? No one seems to know.
The partial government shutdown and spring break crowds have created a nightmare for travelers—and the GOP.

The Trump administration is gearing up to kick an estimated six million more people off of food assistance programs — including nearly two million children. The move would save just $1 billion a year, while Trump spends upwards of $1 billion per *day* on his new forever war. Priorities.
