I was honored to welcome everyone to AD 28 & introduce @nycspeakeradams.bsky.social at the May 13, 2025 Forest Hills fundraiser for her campaign 😁 Fast forward 15 months, and it's exciting to campaign for her election as the first Black woman Lieutenant Governor of NYS 😃🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

🧵 It's been such an action-packed year and a half here in New York City that I am just now making the time to post about marching with the NYWFP contingent in last year's (Sep 1, 2025) West Indian American Day Carnival Parade 🫠 🎊🎈Here's to Labor Day and J'Ouvert celebrations, always 👏🏼👏🏼🍻🍾🥂🥳🎉 🥳 🎉

Justice for Lorenzo Salgado Araujo

There were three passengers in the vehicle with Lorenzo when he was shot and killed by ICE agents. Two of them claim that ICE agents were never in any danger, and that the shots were fired from the si...

Good news that SCOTUS preserved mail ballot grace periods but very disturbing that 4 justices led by Alito amplified Trump's conspiracies about mail voting, including debunked claims of "voter fraud" www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

In a rare blow to Trump, the Supreme Court just saved mail-in voting—for now

The surprise victory is unlikely to slow down the administration's assault on voting rights.

motherjones.com

BREAKING: In a mail voting case, the Supreme Court chose not to do the wrong thing. The laws in many states stand: voters can vote by mail, and if they do so by Election Day, states will count their ballots. Voters should make a plan to vote and their vote will count.

My main takeaway from Tuesday, being outside NY: we need to identify the opportunities, short and long term, for a left ecosystem and run at them with all we've got. If big money is coming to eat our lunch, we have to solidify gains now and start preparing for the terrain to shift.

PS—One reason I see a time limit on the efficacy of this electoral strategy is that big money will eventually adapt and learn to fund good field too. At that point, the people doing the Left's electoral work must become more fully multi-racial, multi-generational, and bottom 90%, class-wise, to win.

Chuck Park, a 50501 Rising Star candidate, managed to win over 42% of the vote against an entrenched AIPAC-backed incumbent without the support of any major progressive group. I’m so incredibly proud of him & his team If DSA, WFP, Mamdani or AOC back @chuckforqueens.bsky.social in 2028, he WILL win

Grace Meng has been in Congress since 2013 and didn’t even have a primary challenger in 2024. She’s at just 57% against a progressive who had virtually zero support or resources.

At least 48 people have died in France, including 40 who drowned trying to find relief from the heat. Two children were found dead in a hot car on Monday afternoon.

The police, as usual.

I have never really felt comfortable around the New Jersey State Police. I have my reasons.

They pushed past their own barricade to violate the designated free speech zone (bc in the USA in 2026 we only have free speech zones in certain areas in the “free” country)??

I really don’t give a flying fuk if Talarico is a Vegan, I prefer candidates that haven’t committed numerous crimes like Paxton! I prefer a candidate with integrity and morals not some criminal sleaze like Paxton!

Everything has to change. Everything. Do not settle for politicians who want to go back to "normal." "Normal" was the garbage state of existence that allowed all of this evil to take root and thrive. Everything has to change.

If you live in any of these neighborhoods, Melissa San Pedro & Christopher Hanusa want to be YOUR voice in the Queens Democratic Party. Visit our webpage at QueensAD28.org to be able to zoom in on the maps. Vote June 23! 💛 #QueensAD28 #DemocratsForChange #DistrictLines #Queens (2/2)
