Everyone needs to see Randi Weingarten’s powerful and deeply personal endorsement of Abdul El-Sayed. At a time when fear and division are being weaponized, her message of unity, equality, and democracy deserves to be heard. Please watch and share. ❤️ #BlueWaveIn7Days

❗️The Kremlin, through the head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund Kirill Dmitriev, is luring Trump’s team with lucrative deals in energy, aviation, rare earth metals, AI, and technology (including investments by people close to Trump in Lukoil), without stopping the war.

DICTATOR TRUMP THREATENS TO JAIL Los Angeles election officials. But his threat makes no sense. It refers to counting ballots that federal agencies have identified as noncitizens. But the feds identified ZERO noncitizens. Just "alleged" noncitizens. And their info has been repeatedly proven wrong.

Dear Trump voters, You wanted mass deportations. Well, hundreds of thousands of people have been deported. NOW WHAT? • Did you get that job they supposedly took from you? • Did grocery prices drop? • Is rent cheaper? • Did your health insurance premiums drop? #TrumpsAbuseOfPower 🧵

Jared Kushner is currently negotiating for the USA. How gifted is Jared at negotiating? In 2007, Jared bought an office tower at the top of the market, the most expensive single-building real estate purchase in NYC history. The market tanked in 2008, leaving his company over $1 billion in debt.

Two-thirds of NYC’s income growth since the pandemic went to the top 1%. The richest 0.001% — about 50 families — saw their average income soar from $315 million in 2019 to nearly $600 million a year. It’s time to build a city that works for everyone.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 93% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 34% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.
