Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.
We are seeing an increased ICE presence in NYC - making it imperative that NYers KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. I wrote a comic with @mayor.nyc.gov @nycimmigrants.bsky.social @davidhahn.bsky.social @elllewrightart.bsky.social @tayloresposito.bsky.social to do that! DOWNLOAD: www.weteachnyc.org/resources/co...

As a professional GM, I feel I have the express right to weigh in here. Rob sucks. Fuck him. If this was that important to his game, this vital, he should have had that shit prepped DAYS ago. But it's not vital. It's called theater of the mind. Look it up, lazy ass.

Its almost like "electable" actually means 'friendly to the Epstein class' or... Bibi.
Joseph Fink, we're going to win@planetoffinks.bsky.social · 2d agoNot to dredge up the past, but the two candidates I most heard the "electable" argument for were Clinton and Cuomo. It was the main thrust of both campaigns. How'd that go?
