Our movement is growing, and now is our time! MHVDSA members voted overwhelmingly to support an Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez run for president. As we face a crisis on every front, home and abroad, we cannot cede ground to a politics of yesterday. Join DSA today and join the fight!

Thoughts on the POTUS Process Debate for DSAers. If NPC removes the mass membership poll, it would be a direct violation of R33 ‘in which Convention mandated us to hold a ‘national referendum’ on the potential endorsement of a candidate for POTUS. This is cut-and-dry.

We can't fall into right-wing populism’s lie that the most vulnerable in society are to blame for wealth inequality in our countries. We need to build movements that tell the truth: the story of wealth inequality is not a cultural one, but a class one.

At midnight, Assemblymember Mamdani became Mayor Mamdani. That means Assembly District 36 is now vacant—and the special election to fill his seat is likely just 33 days away. My name is Diana Moreno, and I'm running to be the next democratic socialist Assemblymember from Queens.

On "Mainstream," the app set up by "Fix the City" (the Bloomberg/Doordash PAC) there are many pre-written, terribly misleading, and evil posts sharable directly to Facebook and X. Only a sick campaign would use things like 9/11 this way. I wouldn't expect anything less from Cuomo + his friends.
Terribly misleading pre-written post by Cuomo's PAC that reads: "2,977 victims, thousands injured, thousands more dead from 9/11-related illnesses & some still struggling with exposure from toxic dust & debris. Families torn apart. A country torn apart. They deserve better. WE deserve better."
