I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation.
I will not be silenced.

Israel’s PM Benjamin Netanyahu said Zohran Mamdani is making Jews in New York City feel “unsafe.”
Here I am, a Jew in New York City, standing a few feet away from a massive anti-Netanyahu protest, and I feel completely safe.
Benjamin Netanyahu is a liar. And a war criminal.

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy.
The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.
Remember this.

Congress has six years to determine the future of Social Security for millions of Americans.
This November, elect members who you trust to protect your hard-earned benefits and not hand your money over to billionaires and Wall Street CEOs.

SOCIAL SECURITY IS AN EARNED PROMISE TO MILLIONS OF RETIREES, DISABLED WORKERS, CHILDREN, AND FAMILIES. THE PEOPLE ELECTED TO CONGRESS WILL DETERMINE WHETHER THAT PROMISE IS STRENGTHENED, PROTECTED, OR WEAKENED. VOTE IN EVERY ELECTION. ESPECIALLY THE MIDTERMS"

Rudy Giuliani said it would be offensive for Mayor Mamdani to attend the upcoming 9/11 ceremony.
But it is the former mayor’s presence at the ceremony that would be the greatest slap in the face of New Yorkers.
Yesterday, the Mamdani administration revealed that Giuliani lied about the level of carcinogenic particles in the air after 9/11. Ten months later and investigators were still finding asbestos all over Lower Manhattan, and New Yorkers were told against all evidence that it was safe to stay and go back to business as usual.
“I come down here in the morning and sometimes the odor is terrible,” Giuliani said in late October 2001, according to an article in The New York Daily News, which had reported on toxic chemicals and metals that had been released into the environment around ground zero. “You smell it and you feel there must be something wrong with it. But what I’m told is that it is not dangerous to your health."
My dad worked in the WTC during 9/11. He escaped and bore witness to the horrors.
He then contracted mesothelioma because he lived near Ground Zero.
The WTC Health Program paid for my father’s healthcare and he survived.
Giuliani knew the air was cancerous and said nothing. He should be banned from any ceremony.

By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Trump: widening inequality and the unchecked power of billionaires.
There's no "center" anymore between a takeover of the government by oligarchs and true freedom.
Dems need to learn this.

ARE WE STILL LIVING IN A DEMOCRACY?
AIPAC, and other billionaire-funded super PACs, are preparing to spend tens of millions of dollars to defeat Dr. Abdul El-Sayed in the Michigan U.S. Senate race.
Why are they so determined to defeat him?
As a doctor, he believes in healthcare as a human right. He knows firsthand that our current healthcare system is broken and that we must pass Medicare for All.
As a taxpayer, he understands that we should not be spending over a trillion dollars on the military and billions of dollars supporting the genocidal Netanyahu government in Israel.
As a supporter of working families, he knows that we have to raise the minimum wage to a living wage and make it easier for workers to join unions.
Whether it is AIPAC, AI or crypto, billionaire-funded super PACs will spend unlimited amounts of money to undermine democracy and defeat candidates who stand with working people and challenge their power. We cannot allow them to succeed.
And that is precisely why we must do everything in OUR power to elect Abdul in the Michigan Democratic U.S. Senate primary on August 4.
They have the money. We have the people.
Let’s stand together and win.

Hey now! This is the mayor walking the walk for NYC workers.
Zohran Mamdani's team will distribute copies of the Workers’ Bill of Rights across NYC during the World Cup. Mamdani said, "We have no tolerance for those who want to use the World Cup to take advantage of New Yorkers."
ALT Mamdani said in a statement the administration was distributing the materials to New Yorkers and visitors alike to ensure that they are aware of the protections and that City Hall has their back. "The World Cup is a time when people from around the world come together around a shared love of soccer,” Mamdani said in the statement. “We have no tolerance for those who want to use the tournament as an opportunity to take advantage of New Yorkers, whether that’s through deceptive business practices, violations of our labor laws, or other forms of exploitation.”
