🚨BREAKING: Nearly 2,900 voters in one Georgia county have yet to receive the absentee ballots they recently applied for and are blaming their local officials’ hiring of an out-of-town vendor for the delays, they charge in a lawsuit filed Tuesday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Meta is suppressing progressives again! @angieforfl.bsky.social hosted an event in Osceola County, FL tonight where she spoke to the local Puerto Rican community. As her team was uploading content from the event, suddenly the Instagram account “latinosconangie” was shut down for well over an hour.

NEW: an Elon Musk funder is attempting to sway the LA City Attorney's race in favor of big tech. John Hering is joined by other tech titans in spending more than $3 million backing John McKinney against DSA-endorsed Marissa Roy who helped win the $17 billion Meta lawsuit this year @theintercept.com

Trump's attacks on immigrants continues to threaten NYers. On Thursday, two dozen unmarked ICE vehicles prowled the streets around East Elmhurst and Elmhurst. We DEMAND ICE out of our streets! #ICEOUTOFNY https://qns.com/2026/10/ice-agents-elmhurst-hospital/

A great GOTV weekend! While our team was out knocking on OVER 2,000 DOORS (!) I took a break and visited Richmond Hill and @drumbeats and @caribbeanequalityproject for Diwali.

Robert Dillon was wrongly arrested for trying to lure a child out of a McDonald's in a city he'd never been to — all because Jacksonville Beach police trusted a false facial recognition match. Their errors cost him his livelihood and sense of security. We're demanding an apology and justice.

I just wrote a @publicpowerny.bsky.social letter: Build Public Renewables, Make New York Affordable . Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/buil...

Now that Donald Trump has made clear that he thinks that this ad is fair game, actual fair game is using the time up until election day asking every Republican candidate running if they think that this ad is fair game or not. No need to constrain this question to just Republican candidates in Ohio.

Elon Musk just poured half a million dollars into this race to try to keep his puppet Mike Lawler in office, just like he did back in 2024. But the Hudson Valley can’t be bought. Mike Lawler has sold out to his trillionaire and corporate backers at our expense —

We found that as of right now 73% of your campaign donation goes back to the consultants and vendors (!!!), four times more than just 20 years ago. Only 13% to ads. Even I was shocked.

Polymarket is taking bets on whether the seven Cornell students accused of raping a student will receive a felony sex crime charge. Among the athletes endorsing Polymarket: LeBron James, Derek Jeter, Eli Manning, Sue Bird, Reggie Bush and Richard Sherman. frontofficesports.com/article/poly...

With my @aimoratoriumnyc.bsky.social besties at the @moreperfectunion.bsky.social symposium. @ilanaglazer.com bringing the hard questions & we got @mayor.nyc.gov to call on Hochul to sign the data center bill on her desk💪 Now he just needs to extend the moratorium on AI in schools!

NEW: An FBI anti-corruption team launched an investigation into whether South Carolina’s most powerful members of Congress were involved in a bribery scheme, ProPublica found. After Trump gutted the FBI and DOJ, the investigation went dark.

Ken Paxton’s financial disclosures appear to omit rental income on multiple properties. Receiving income and not reporting it is a violation of federal ethics law, three experts said. with @texastribune.org

Another day, another wildly corrupt plot that would shock the country under any other administration.   Trump & his rich friends have turned the federal govt into a pay-to-play scheme — exchanging millions of dollars for favors & selling access to foreign tycoons. www.axios.com/2026/10/19/k...

Once again, an American has been viciously assaulted by Trump’s ICE thugs. We can’t keep funding this terror. Abolish ICE now.

Emphasizing again that we cannot treat this as just business as usual. This is the President of the United States openly attacking an entire ethnic group.

The "A.i." industry has a problem with consent. It's a predatory business that's stolen vast amounts of creative work, exploits overseas workers, and constantly violates people's privacy. Tell @mayor.nyc.gov to keep it the hell away from our high schoolers. Cancel the "A.i." pilots. heymamdani.fyi

Belfi Rivera was 14 when the Arizona Diamondbacks made a handshake deal that would pay him $1.8M after he turned 16. But $630K went to a trainer who brokered the deal, and $950K+ went to a lender whose business partner is Red Sox legend David Ortiz.

@iwillnotbesilenced.bsky.social, will you please remove the video cited at the beginning of the thread? You're spreading disinformation by leaving it up. That's bad for all of us.

Hey, @iwillnotbesilenced.bsky.social, please delete this post! 1. This is my video & you should not be posting other people's videos without permission or credit. 2. More importantly, this is a BAD version of the video with the WRONG LOCATION - this was Bay Ridge, not Staten Island. PLS DELETE!

This week in Palestine, - Israeli settlers attacked an American journalist in the West Bank - Israel continued to kill Palestinians across Gaza - the death toll topped 1,500 Palestinians since the so-called ceasefire one year ago Read Zeteo’s weekly roundup: zeteo.com/p/this-week-...

Several elected officials condemned the attack on Washington Post photographer Heidi Levine, who was beaten and injured by masked Israeli settlers in the West Bank. Levine was treated for broken vertebrae, a broken rib and lacerations throughout her body.

Elon Musk has assembled a presidential-level field operation this midterm cycle, underscoring the extent to which he has taken over the get-out-the-vote effort for the Republican party.

BREAKING: Dollar General has been caught listing one price on the shelf, and charging another price at the register. NY Attorney General Letitia James found shoppers in New York being overcharged 14% of the time.

Voting for @kathyhochul.bsky.social on the WFP ballot line shows the urgent need for a more affordable New York. It also ensures we keep existing as a party. To maintain our ballot line, every 2 years we need hundreds of thousands of people to vote on our line. Visit votewfp.info and join us! 🗳

With two botched executions in less than six months and the Trump administration proposing a livestream execution, the cruelty of the death penalty is on full display. There's no humane way for the state to kill someone. thehill.com/opinion/crim...

This is the result of 7+ years of Trump's attacks on @repilhan.bsky.social, Somali-Americans, & the Muslim community. Everyone, regardless of party, must speak out against this fascistic abuse of power. If they can do this to a sitting Congresswoman, they can & will do it to anyone.

This fall and beyond, NYC PLAN will be continuing to demand that @mayor.nyc.gov honor his promise to fund our libraries at 0.5% of the city expense budget. Interested in joining us in our fight? Our next monthly meeting is in-person, Sunday Oct 18: email info@nycplan.org for details

An incredible victory. The result of years of organizing by so many groups & people, including @jvp.bsky.social. So much is possible in this new era for NYC that wasn't before, because of our movements, in the political conditions of NYC led by Mayor Mamdani. More! Keep going!

In yet another stunning display of ICE cruelty, Oscar Belgal is still being held in solitary confinement (with a bullet still in his neck) at the notorious Metropolitan Detention Center.

We have been coming weekly to MDC to stand in community with our detained neighbors, now including Oscar Belgal, shot in front of his 5 year old & now being held in solitary. Pressing our hands to the wall holding them away from their families & raising our voices in solidarity. @indivisible.org

Happening now: 100s rally outside the Metropolitan Detention Center in BK, where 100s of our neighbors - including Oscar Belgal, recently shot by ICE - are inhumanely detained. @indivisible.org @bradlander.bsky.social @jumaane.bsky.social @cmalexaaviles.bsky.social @handsoffnyc.bsky.social

BREAKING: @democracydefendersfund.org & partners just sued ICE over a nasty catch-22 ICE detains people, takes their IDs & work papers, releases them, keeps the papers. Now they can't work & risk getting picked up again for having no ID We're going to court to get it ALL back -TN

This is appalling. The denial of critical medical care while in custody is inhumane and torturous. And being trapped in solitary confinement at MDC - infamous for its horrific conditions - without adequate food or water is nothing short of traumatic. We demand Oscar Belgal be freed, now.

They’ve spent 2 years building the apparatus to go after political opponents and dissenters. Our response has to begin now. People facing retaliation need a community willing to stand beside them. We cannot allow fear of this government to determine whether we exercise our right to challenge it

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.

No Kings: Vote Early Sat, Oct 17 11am in Bay Ridge. Help turn out voters in NYC’s ONLY SWING DISTRICT! Bring your friends/family for a joyful parade & make sure we have a democracy with NO KINGS! www.mobilize.us/nokings/even... @riseandresist.bsky.social @handsoffnyc.bsky.social @indivisible.org

When they passed the ICE funding bill I suggested that the eventual defunding bill to abolish ICE should also void the pensions of anyone who worked for them, including police and prison guards who switched federal service positions. No retired Gestapo.

Many stories of illegal detention (while still in active TPS status) and just brutal treatment in detention. People so brutalized that they ask to be deported— one man asked every week — but remained detained for 6 additional weeks! He could have been put on several previously deportation flights!

10.09.2026 Hands Off NYC ICE shot a New Yorker yesterday. All out to Foley Square tonight!

EMERGENCY PROTEST IN NEW YORK TONIGHT 5:30PM FOLEY SQUARE. ICE shot a man with his 5 year old in the backseat. We cannot let this be normal. Be there.

NEW: ICE agent in a high-viz vest holding a rifle at the scene of shooting near the Bronx has a history of allegedly lying, using excessive force, and courts have found his arrests unlawful. @dmehro.bsky.social @awinston.bsky.social, @regret.bsky.social w/ the scoop: www.wired.com/story/ice-ag...

Tax billionaire wealth. I frankly don't care if a billionaire can make a second billion. I'd rather have the average person be able to make their first $100k.

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

NYC is on track to have its lowest rate of shootings EVER, and the thing that is going to ruin that is the presence of ICE. If the police commissioner cannot pick the side of New Yorkers, she obviously has to be fired. The numbers do not lie.
