Prepare for an insane explosion of Islamophobia between now and November, from the same people on the right (and center!) who pretend to be exercised by the rise in anti-Jewish bigotry. The hate will be off the charts and make the anti-Zohran campaign look tame. Mark my words.
An abandoned SpaceX rocket travelling at around 5,400mph is expected to crash into the moon, leaving a crater with a diameter of around 17m. (via BBC) The collision is expected to take place today at 7:35 BST, just under an hour from the time of this post.
Today, for the first time in New York City history, 2,000 two year-olds received offers for FREE 2-K. A big step for those who take baby steps. A big step towards a City every New Yorker can afford.
Be patient, folks. You'll see the numbers from the bigger counties and I believe they'll tilt El Sayed.

We are a city of immigrants, and our long tradition of offering safe haven to all, as well as our laws, reflect that. To every immigrant New Yorker living in fear today: you belong here. And anyone who wants to come for you will have to come through your neighbors and fellow New Yorkers first.

Huge corporations like Amazon, Walmart, and Uber are among the top employers of SNAP and Medicaid recipients. Meanwhile, their CEOs are raking in multi-million dollar pay packages. How is this not a bigger scandal?
Voted NO on the $1 trillion Pentagon budget. We have a moral responsibility to stop writing blank checks for endless wars and invest in our communities. My statement with @pocan.house.gov. 🧵

ICE shared Medicaid data, which it wasn't even supposed to have in the first place, with Palantir. Anyone else worried about this? Here's what you should know about Palantir. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_VwyhErd88
