The @nytimes.com coverage today was terrible. Late to start. Badly framed. And just…some weird mix of lazy and too-cool-for-school? This prophylactic squib was especially annoying. Since they didn’t focus on either! www.nytimes.com/2025/05/01/i...

The NY Times, which media scholar called "the steering mechanism of the ruling class," is already normalizing the expropriation of Greenland. But why not? They've already normalized the genocide in Gaza.

AOC has the potential to bring thousands into DSA. But turning potential into power means disciplined organizing, building co-governance, and truly acting like a party. Groundwork's Danny Valdes (@through.blog) on the AOC question. www.groundworkdsa.com/building-up/...

As people look to fight Trump, many turn to DSA—but even more look to AOC. We could channel that energy, but it will take disciplined organizing and a shift in how we navigate power.

Democrats seem to have forgotten how to talk to the working class. You know who might have helped? Cori Bush, who was a nurse before she got to Congress, and Jamaal Bowman who was a principal. Sadly, establishment Dems let the pro-apartheid lobby group AIPAC spend millions to throw them out.

As Trump's govt of the rich, by the rich, for the rich takes shape -- and as policies such as Medicaid bloc grants, huge cuts to food stamps, and a tariff policy that will raise prices on most consumer goods come into focus -- it astounds me that anyone could think Trump cares for the working poor.

NEW: Reps. Lee, McGovern, Meeks, Castro, @aoc.bsky.social, @repcasar.bsky.social, and others demand Biden act now on #Cuba. #SendAndEnd: Send aid and END Cuba’s SSOT designation. The stakes couldn’t be higher amid a U.S.-driven humanitarian crisis. bit.ly/leebidencuba...
U.S. Representatives Barbara Lee (CA-12), Jim McGovern (MA-2), Gregory Meeks (NY-5), and Joaquin Castro (TX-20) led their colleagues in writing a letter to President Joe Biden urging immediate sanctions relief for the Cuban people amid widespread blackouts and an escalating energy crisis, exacerbated by the impact of Hurricane Rafael.

“The situation is not only causing immense suffering for the Cuban people but also poses serious risks to U.S. national security interests,” the lawmakers wrote. “If left unaddressed, the crisis will almost certainly fuel increased migration, strain U.S. border management systems, and fully destabilize the already-strained Caribbean region.”

Since 2022, over 850,000 Cubans have sought refuge in the United States. The ongoing collapse of essential services, particularly electricity, has further exacerbated this exodus.

The lawmakers requested that President Biden remove the state sponsor of terror designation, expedite emergency humanitarian aid and technical assistance, issue safe harbor letters to address overcompliance with sanctions, suspend sanctions impeding aid, and facilitate energy infrastructure repair and modernization.

“Even temporary relief can save lives and permit the Cuban people a chance to insulate themselves and their families from further vulnerability.

The role of the Gaza genocide in Kamala Harris’s loss
The cause of Kamala Harris’s disastrous failure in the 2024 presidential election will forever be debated, but there are good reasons to believe the Israeli genocide in Gaza played a significant role.
