trump (after zohran mamdani charms him for 5 minutes): “we’re looking very strongly at implementing socialism, many people are saying it. they love redistribution of wealth and you’re hearing it more and more. there’s a term, they call it, a centrally planned economy. it’s an old fashioned term”

STEWART: “I feel like I’m watching something so self-evidently inhumane and horrific and to be told I have to shut up because I risk the Jewish state by speaking out? I would say the opposite — they’re putting the likelihood of a surviving Jewish state much more at risk.”

This is the kind of gap between rank and file voters and the party establishment that will likely cause some real havoc and disruption in the party's politics and primaries. In a different way, it's what gave rise to Trump in GOP.

Wealthy CEOs want to hide how much they make. The SEC hosted a roundtable laying the groundwork to do their bidding. They call it 'simplification.' We call it hiding the truth about corporate greed.

Last weekend, we joined @socialists.nyc volunteer appreciation day to celebrate the thousands of members—old and new—who knocked on doors, made phone calls, and organized day after day for our victory in the primary.

Onward to November and beyond.

In the midst of a multi million dollar smear campaign against a Dsa candidate, blanket condemnation of the org that he & thousands of others are inextricably part of does not allow for recognition of work my comrades have put in to build this org under incrdible hostility bsky.app/profile/dems...

My reaction to painting the whole organization, that thousands of black and brown comrades have worked hard to build into the type of org that can propel Zohran to victory, as awful. I fully agree there’s a huge problem with toxic racists in Dsa, per my 2nd tweet. not close to the majority.

There are awful people that claim to be part of DSA just as there are awful people who claim any affiliation. The barrier to entry for DSA is filling out an online form. Socialism beats fascism & DSA is the largest org doing the work.

The organization that molded the candidacy & platform for the very candidate you’re supporting is “awful”? The political organization that numbers over 10k members across the city & is the infrastructure for his campaign is “awful”? If mamdani & his campaign are the path forward, so is DSA.

I truly hope left & prog candidates can ride the Zohran wave and boot centrists from the party, & it is also imperative that we beat the drum that a healthy DSA chapter was an essential ingredient in forming who Zohran is & is inextricable at every level from his campaign’s success t.co/GftxUKQ4Rq

people come up with all kinds of fanciful math to justify billionaires' wealth but imo present political moment demonstrates conclusively that we need to tax billionaires at whatever rate will keep them focused on their own fucking business rather than our Medicaid and pediatric cancer research
