Brian Tyler Cohen: We have to remember, the point of being in government is not the preservation of processes. The point of being in government is the outcomes. It's making sure people have healthcare, jobs, a just economy, that this country works for regular people

🚨 BREAKING: MADISON SQUARE GARDEN ERUPTS IN BOOS AS DONALD TRUMP IS SHOWN ON SCREEN
I'm sure that this meeting's clumsy parliamentary procedures and timewasting questions/comments are testing people's patience, but I'm personally immune to it, having survived several of the BK Dems' famously infuriating County Committee meetings. YOU CAN'T BREAK ME, I WAS FORGED IN FIRE.
OH. MY. GOD. THIS IS THE EARTHSET PHOTO FROM ARTEMIS II. IM SPEECHLESS.
This is the FINAL weekend of petitioning! Together we can build a better politics and a better Democratic Party. But this only happens if we make it happen. Would be so grateful if you joined us: www.mobilize.us/landerforcongress
Got in a Lyft and he started playing a banger House/Club mix. Immediate five stars. I don’t mind being gay profiled if it’s bangers like this. ✨
Trump pardons allies who boost his crypto coin. Trump invests in corporations that he's supposed to be regulating. Trump cuts deals with autocrats to advance his family's real estate business. The list goes on. We must not become numb to this blatant corruption.
Ideally the President of the United States and the stupidest person on the planet should be two different people…
We're thrilled to endorse one of our own, @bkbpreynoso.bsky.social for Congress in NY-7! Antonio has spent his entire career fighting for the people and against entrenched power.
I’m deeply grateful to our district leaders for their support and their partnership in this fight to elect better Democrats.
The @workingfamilies.org is my political home because it is the party that is built for and by working people. We face a dire time in our country…and we need fighters right now in Albany, not the status quo. I am honored to receive the endorsement of the @nywfp.bsky.social .
Yuh-Line Niou@yuhline.bsky.social · 5mo ago“10 years ago, when I ran against the entrenched and corrupt Democratic machine for Assembly, it was the WFP who saw the potential for building the progressive movement and put boots on the ground, organized the grassroots, and helped deliver an upset win no one saw coming.
A child dying of cancer spent her final days fighting to free her wrongfully detained father from ICE custody. This comes just weeks after a mother from Maryland was denied the right to be at her son’s side as he died from cancer. Not one dime for this cruelty. www.cbsnews.com/amp/chicago/...

For state committee in Assembly District 51, we enthusiastically endorse Jacqui Painter for reelection! Alongside @juliopenabk.com, she's given so much of her time and energy to making the Democratic Party more inclusive of and accessible to everyday Brooklynites.
NKD endorses @juliopenabk.com for reelection as Democratic State Committee Member in Assembly District 51! Julio is a strong voice for making the BK Dems more transparent, inclusive, and accountable. Reelecting Julio and a majority of allies in other districts is how we win a better party.
What 2025 has taught me: Joy is resistance. Representation matters. Live in the moment. Live with integrity. I am resilient. Prepared for 2026 and all that they bring 🧡.
Brad is a proud partner and champion for the NYWFP. We are proud to be Day-One endorsers of his campaign. He has been a leader for all NYers, fought for paid sick leave, and shepherded one of the largest affordable housing projects in years. We’re all in on @bradlander.bsky.social for NY-10
Hi @schumer.senate.gov and @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social! If you vote for this horrible deal, I will spend the next 4 years making sure you are both primaried and retired from the US Senate.
So Democrats get: 1. A CR that will prevent the GOP from facing the wrath of Americans for a shutdown over the holidays 2. A coupon for one (1) meaningless ACA vote that will fail 3. An end to the illegal RIF/SNAP moves that are already before the courts Those all seem like wins for the GOP.
This is pathetic - to give in over "a promised vote" - but this is what they were always going to do. "A handful of Democrats will supply some eight votes for a new short-term CR in exchange for a promised vote on the ACA tax credits." They are gonna trust the GOP.🤡 www.axios.com/newsletters/...
In honor of Columbus Day, I have discovered the rich and fertile land of Sunset Park and have now claimed it for the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Doei!

This is as huge a scandal & blunder as this chaotic Administration has seen. The person who should be called to answer for it is Secy Kristi Noem. When a woman who loves the camera as much as Noem is nowhere to be seen for 10 days it’s b/c she’s hiding out. Media should be all over this.
