A caller asks Brian Lehrer: by refusing to Tax The Rich while they're getting a $12 billion tax cut from Trump, does
@governor.ny.gov effectively support the Trump Tax Cuts for the rich?
(yes)
Thousands of Minnesotans engaged in resistance to ICE's occupation earlier this year. How did they do it?

“Assemblymember Diana Moreno, who succeeded Mamdani in the district, welcomed plans for the restart of the public engagement process & the expansion of the redesign.”
“‘We must follow the data & take aggressive action to prevent traffic violence & save lives,’ Moreno said.”

#MazzohciHive rise up!
On April 22, 1970, 20 million people across America gathered for #EarthDay – the largest single day demonstration in US history. This landmark moment led to a wave of environmental action and legislation. And it was possible thanks to the labor movement. #onthisday 🧵

ATTN RICH PEOPLE: this is now the bar
"We've spent millions of dollars putting our names on buildings all over town. We're not leaving." 😆
#taxTheRich
Since @governor.ny.gov won't listen to working class New Yorkers, we found the only people she *does * listen to: The Rich.
So take it from @patrioticmillionaires.org: taxing the rich's second homes is just the start. It's time to Tax The Rich and stop Trump's cuts for good.
Companies that raised prices to offset tariff costs will be reimbursed by the government, the working people who paid those prices will be told to try buying cheaper cuts of meat

We're staring down a brutally hot summer and energy and food shocks and cost of living crisis that climate change intensifies. There's endless money for war. But voters want policies that address the real threats to their security. At @cplusc.bsky.social, our new agenda has the solutions🧵
A GENTLE REMINDER: we are trying to eliminate fossil fuels because using them kills us.
If fossil fuels were cheap (they're not) or reliable (they're SO NOT), it would still be urgent to get rid of them because their intended use destroys our life support systems.
There is working class solidarity everywhere for those with the eyes to see
This woman is a handpicked Trump supporter from Arkansas and she is less anti-trans than the median Atlantic columnist
it didn't happen and displace all of that bad feeling onto everything else in society.
I genuinely believe that people don't appreciate just how much of all the bad vibes right now are still largely a COVID hangover. It was a profoundly traumatizing event for American society, on the order of the civil war or the great depression and we've largely decided to just pretend
any attempt to leftwing-ize the natalism shit is just pointless because this is what it's actually about:
Real chapter democracy rests on voting accessibility for every key decision and every leader in the organization. Every member should get a say, no exceptions.
I mean either way, the cause is the same
the AOC effect
Hook this directly to my veins. We are running AOC for president, we are building a socialist movement of millions, and we are putting MAGA and their enablers in front of Nuremberg tribunals.
For decades, we've been sold the lie that empire advances freedom and keeps us safe. Instead, it's led to violence, instability and a ruling class that reaps the profits but never pays the bill.
Today we're releasing our vision for a different foreign policy: clairevaldezforcongress.com/nowar
I think this is pretty much right
