@envisionedluna Steyer was good slopulism. It just wasn’t seen as authentic to voters because he’s a billionaire

Lately, we have had to grapple with several otherwise excellent candidates’ belief that defending Ukraine harms the average American financially or, worse, that they are uncomfortable with the concept of military aid. It is the responsibility of those with power to defend the interests of those without it, especially when we are the reason they are powerless.
If they aren’t willing to stand up to foreign oligarchs/imperialists, how can we believe they will be ready to stand up to America’s corporate, imperial interests when they bully & threaten them every day in Congress?
For that reason, until @claireforny commits to supporting both humanitarian & military aid to Ukraine, we cannot endorse or support her no matter how much we may otherwise align.
Solidarity with both Palestinians and Ukrainians must remain a red line.
Track Ukraine@TrackUkraine
Congressional primary candidate for NY-7th @claireforny avoided the topic of Ukraine while campaigning. Given the first chance to speak about the deadliest invasion on earth she complained about aid cost and called for more stalled talks. Being truly anti-war means taking action.

@avzaagzonunaada All theories about colonization are proven nonsense when presented with 2026 China.
English
What’s even the point of all those independence movements if you are going to describe yourselves as “colonized” in perpetuity?
Lulu | WC 🇪🇬@muixyui
"who are you cheering for" me anytime a colonized nation score against a colonizer country

@lib_sundevil What is this supposed to mean? PhD students don’t make a ton

If you’re an Ivy League PhD and you’re struggling to make ends meet, that’s 100% on you
Darializa for Congress@DarializaforNY
I am the daughter of Dominican immigrants. I am a New Yorker. And like so many in our district, I am a renter who has had to wonder whether I can afford to stay in the city that I love. I’m running for Congress because New Yorkers deserve a fighter standing up for us in Washington — and on June 23, that’s exactly what we will deliver.

@goodolecharlie Kinda funny how the Taft family just gradually lost importance in Ohio politics and got elected to lower political positions with each generation
English
Wow! This two-term secretary of state LOST during a Bush midterm! Surely he will never run for public office again.

@Devyn484727 @jeremy_f5 @auautumntumn Being bipartisan and uniting the country is always good policy

@ChicagosLoneCon @Coolnerdxx22 @RBSalt What major substantive policy differences do you see between them?
English
@Coolnerdxx22 @RBSalt Baldwin isn’t radical at all. She’s quite left wing sure but you’re kidding yourself if you think Baldwin, a generic progressive, and Hong, a socialist, are similar.

Regardless of what you think of Mamdani’s political views, he only won in a D +38 city by 9% so how in the world is a Mamdani-aligned supposed to win in a 50-50 state?
Francesca Hong For Governor@FrancescaHongWI
New York City elected a socialist mayor, and the Knicks won their first championship in 53 years. Imagine what we could do with a socialist governor in Wisconsin? @packers @Brewers @Bucks
English
@PrizrakLuganska @BenHanan_ Seems pretty obvious by “we” he’s talking about the city he’s the literal mayor of
English
@BenHanan_ He’s also 34, so it’s literally impossible for him to have waited 53 years for anything.
English
You were born in Uganda and became a citizen in 2018
Myles Miller@mylesmill
.@NYCMayor said he didn’t go to sleep til 3:45a following the #Knicks win. “We’ve been waiting for this for 53 years, and it just feels like the entire city is alive. The biggest city in the country feels like the smallest town in the world.”

@KwangyaBaddie @lbf_mas Could Wemby have communicated the idea that the Knicks are a physical team without implying that they’re less sophisticated? Yes or no?
English
@Devyn484727 @lbf_mas If you say so. It really wasn’t, but sure. If you want that argument you can have it. It’s not like that wasn’t the entire leagues take on the Knicks either at the time.
English
From the very beginning his arrogance showed & he refused to respect this Knicks team & the Knicks kicked his ass every time
Fullcourtpass@Fullcourtpass
Victor Wembanyama on the Knicks: "They don't play a brand of basketball as sophisticated as the Miami Heat or the Thunder. But their physicality is top in the league, so it's a very tough team to play against"
English
@KwangyaBaddie @lbf_mas It was objectively a backhanded comment. He could’ve just said their physicality makes them tough to beat, but instead he chose to degrade them first. It was completely unnecessary.
English
@lbf_mas I don’t think it is I can comprehend what I read and apparently you guys can’t he complimented the Knicks, all he said was it’s a different brand of basketball. Stating a fact, Knicks are an amazing defense team WHICH THEY ARE. You all took it as a jab when it’s not.

@kleeposting Having a high IQ is realizing they are both slop for different reasons.

I never understood how people can be in IQ-gap long-term relationship

What does Gaza have to do with the rising cost of groceries and gas prices in the 13th district? GTFOH.
Drop Site@DropSiteNews
Adriano Espaillat, the incumbent running for New York’s 13th Congressional District, refused to call Israel’s war in Gaza a genocide, saying only: “Whoever perpetrated that should be held accountable.” (The Democratic primary for the seat is June 23. Early voting starts tomorrow and runs June 13–21.)

@AezzieUwU Or we can blame Senate Dem leadership for wheeling out an 80 year old governor who it doesn’t even seem like really wanted to run lol. Just a thought.

Btw, the worst of his scandals aren’t even out yet. It’s only gonna get worse from here. Thank you leftists for ruining yet another race. This is the second election in Maine alone you’ve ruined this cycle!

@Rules_Glitter @jane_plainly @LeeKuanYimby “That’s how communism works,” meanwhile we just got our first trillionaire while tens of millions are either homeless or impoverished. Please wake up lol
English
@jane_plainly @LeeKuanYimby That’s the way communism works. Wake up. The people live in poverty and the elite amass all the wealth.

Reminder: Zohran and his family keep an extra luxury home in Uganda in a neighborhood surrounded by armed security because everyone else is so poor.
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@NYCMayor
Reason #1,000,000,000,000 why we should tax the rich.
English
@CupEmpty @ReichlinMelnick I’m sure all of those businesses left in the 19 days between Mamdani’s inauguration and the publication of that article.
English
@ReichlinMelnick New York City lost nearly 5,000 businesses and corporate relocations to states like Florida and Texas
English
Nothing like an Oklahoman with no ties to New York City trying to tell the city what to think about its highly popular mayor.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin on Mamdani: "He and I don't get along. It's shameful. And hopefully people in New York will wise up and get a true leader in there in a few years."
