Democrats in Congress should not elect a Speaker of the House or a Senate Majority Leader who does not support: ✅ Medicare for All ✅ Abolishing ICE ✅ Banning hyperscale data centers ✅ Stopping aid to Israel

Tihar ko hardik shuvakamana! As thousands of Nepali New Yorkers light diyas for Laxmi Puja and celebrate the bonds of Bhai Tika, may this Tihar bring you prosperity, peace, and the sense of belonging you deserve.

This. And no to Jeffries & Schumer leadership.
"I don’t want Jared Kushner to be investigated because he’s the president’s son-in-law. I want him investigated because he’s potentially laundered and embezzled $2 billion dollars in funds from the governments of Saudi Arabia and the UAE. I don’t want Stephen Miller investigated because he’s a racist ghoul who’s at the center of the Trump brain trust. I want him investigated because he’s a racist ghoul who has violated the due-process rights of millions of people and, potentially, directly violated court orders. I don’t want Pete Hegseth investigated because he’s a toxic psychopath who is unqualified to lead America’s military forces. I want him investigated because he’s a fucking murderer who needs to spend the rest of his life in jail, either in this country or The Hague." thenation.com/article/politi…

Nepal represent!!! ❤️ (Now if only the country could get a progressive young leader like Sarahana at home).
Thank you to: everyone who turned out the vote, my constituents who have my back, DSA members organizing to win solidarity over scarcity, workers organizing their work places, my family for their support (and prayers), and my team and my husband for being my No. 1 colluders!

Elon Musk has no real understanding of cultures. And he doesn’t care for it. Social Media is the biggest threat to destroying local cultures by creating a false need to be “viral”. Musk is a piece of💩 who is using X & his $ to destroy countries and tear apart societies.
It means entire countries and cultures will go extinct forever

Nepal is in the grip of a devastating climate crisis that has displaced families and left thousands missing. The Trump administration must act now to grant TPS to eligible Nepali nationals. We urge this designation to protect Nepalis from a forced return to danger.

In which @AOC talks about @ZohranKMamdani, @claireforny, & my sister @sarahana
AOC: We knew that the work couldn't be done and finished with just one person. So, we went back around down ballot and we changed and transformed and took on the entire Queen's machine and some of the Bronx machine. We ran young people, including an assemblyman by the name of Zohran Mamdani in 2020 and an assemblywoman by the name of Claire Valdez.

The sheer scale of the Nepal-Tibet flood would have overwhelmed even the most well-equipped governments.

Trump addresses the situation in Nepal. His words are hollow, but his actions & leadership is guaranteed to induce more climate disasters like Nepal’s, and worse, around the world, USA included.
I asked @POTUS a question in the Oval Office today on the Americans missing in Nepal. Watch:

A massive section of a Himalayan glacier broke away and plunged nearly 4,000 feet into a river valley, unleashing deadly flash floods across Nepal. Hundreds have been killed and many more are missing. This is the climate crisis and it is only accelerating. Countries like Nepal contributed almost nothing to create this crisis, yet their people are suffering some of its most catastrophic consequences. But nowhere is immune. In Arizona, hundreds of people die every summer as a result of extreme heat. Meanwhile, Trump and Republicans are handing Big Oil more tax breaks and giveaways to line the pockets of their fossil fuel donors. It’s all part of the corruption story. We need to be talking about it, but unfortunately the corruption and devastation caused by the Trump regime is so vast that its assault on climate often gets forgotten in the chaos. We have no time left to waste. Climate change is a threat multiplier and we have to respond with the urgency it demands.

Not knowing in times of disaster whether what you’re seeing is real or not—another pitfall of ubiquitous AI.
Horrifying images of entire communities being wiped out by the floods in Nepal. Please be careful about what you share, and stay vigilant for AI-generated footage and fake news.

Tragedies like these are why a state like New York shouldn't be wavering on its climate responsibility. Build public renewables, put people before data centers, and take our utilities back from shareholders.
Our hearts are with Nepal and all those affected by the devastating flooding along the Nepal-Tibet border. We mourn the lives lost, pray for those still missing, and stand with New Yorkers who are grieving loved ones and worrying about family back home.

Those who want safety for the Himalayan region should commit to a swift and just energy transition—one that puts power in the hands of people, not corporations.
The catastrophic devastation across Nepal and Tibet is a heartbreaking tragedy. Our prayers are with the families throughout the Himalayan region who have lost loved ones, those still awaiting news and the brave rescuers working tirelessly to find survivors.
