Statement from our LID President @smfox.bsky.social makes it clear -- overturning election results and defying election results is wrong no matter who does it! We stand firmly against this disgraceful behavior from the party chair and too many other party leaders.

Part 1 of statement from LID's president reading:

Brooklyn Deserves Better than a Party Chair who hides from voters.

Last night, Chair Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn and Brooklyn Democratic leadership stole an election result before it could event take effect.

Part 2 of statement from LID president reading:

This corrupt power grab would not survive sunlight. That's why party leaders papered over windows, barred members of the press, and slipped out the back door.

Our party rightfully calls out Trump when he tries to overturn democracy. We cannot accept that same behavior from inside our own ranks. Respecting election results isn't optional -- locally or nationally.

Reforms are heading to court, and we stand with them. The Brooklyn voters who won in June deserve to have their voices heard -- not silenced by the officials they just voted out. And every district leader who voted to stand against Brooklyn voters tonight should be on notice: you can try to paper over windows, but you can't silence Brooklyn voters.

Part 3 of LID president's statement reading:

Background:

Tuesday night, the following District Leaders voted to overturn the results of the June 2026 Democratic Primary election:

Anthony Beckford*, Michelle Tégé*, Victoria Mushailova, Joey Cohen-Saban, Nancy Tong, Larry He, Tony Ying Kao, Joyce Xiaoqiong Xie, Arleny Alvarado McCalla*, Heriberto Mateo*, Darlene Mealy, Anthony Jones, Kenesha Traynham Cooper*, Henry Butler*, Michael Boomer*, Mercedes Narcisse*, Kevin Parker, Frank Seddio, Nikki Lucas, Michael Rosendary, Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn

* = Lost their seat in June

Is there a bisexual bar in NYC? Like anybody is welcome of any gender and the vibe is “everyone is bi”? If not, who wants to go in on starting one?

As NYU Langone capitulates to threats from this administration and refuses to provide gender affirming care that saves lives, a protest outside the hospital on Sunday March 1 saw a number of elected leaders show up and clearly lay out the challenge and what they're going to do about it.

Laying out the battle and the how this administration is targeting vulnerable youth to divide us. Ends his speech with "Fuck Trump!"

Awful and dangerous to hear the Mayor echo the transphobic bigotry coming from the Trump administration. It's completely at odds with the values of our city and another reason why his single, disgraced term in office cannot end soon enough.

A screenshot of two tweets from the Politico reporter Joe Anuta.

The 1st: ".@NYCMayor elaborates on his comments yesterday that boys and girls should not use the same bathroom. He says he will review the policy of his own education department, which allows students to use restrooms “consistent with their gender identity” and potentially change it"

2nd: "He says students whose sex at birth differs should never be allowed to use the bathroom at the same time, regardless of gender identity"

Biological sex is a spectrum too, not just gender. That’s not postmodern nonsense, it’s reality as revealed by science. Sex is a cluster of phenotypical characteristics that tend to, but do not always, correlate. The spectrum follows a bimodal distribution, but that’s not the same thing as a binary!

Their memorials are history. Ours are political. Because as always, there are two sexualities - straight, and political. Two genders - male, and political. Two religions - Christian, and political. Two races - white, and political.

The DEC rejected the NESE pipeline 5 years ago as a threat to public health, but Trump is trying to force NY to reconsider. The $1.4B NESE pipeline is costly, toxic, and unnecessary, locking New York into decades of debt and dirty energy. No Trump pipelines in NY!

Back to back heatwaves. Skyrocketing energy bills. And now @governor.ny.gov & Trump are trying to fast-track a new gas pipeline that would make them even worse🤮 We have less than a week to say NO to this disaster. Tell Hochul: NO TRUMP PIPELINES! www.stopwilliamsnesepipeline.org

New York Says No Trump Pipelines!
Right now, Governor Hochul is trying to revive a Trump-backed pipeline New Yorkers already rejected in 2020.
This pipeline would be a disaster for our climate, for our communities, and for our energy bills.
Tell Hochul: Don't sell out New York to big oil billionaires!

It's important to note here that our understanding of Kennedy's disbelief in germ theory isn't based on speculation or deduction; it's based on Kennedy's own words. He wrote an entire section on it in his 2021 book vilifying Fauci, titled The Real Anthony Fauci. The section is titled "Miasma vs. Germ Theory," in the chapter "The White Man's Burden."
