New York City’s business elites are long accustomed to direct access to City Hall, where even Democratic mayors felt the need to court the city’s wealthiest and most influential corporate leaders. That access is getting shredded by Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

Trump's rollback of air pollution rules is really bad news for communities who live near the gas plants being built to power data centers. It's especially bad news for Texans, where state regulators are fast-tracking approvals at an "alarming" pace.

Have James Carville and Bill Maher left the Democratic Party yet? Let me be the first to say, "Good morning, good afternoon, and goodnight!"

so that an organizer won up against a machine and a shitton of money... that means something has shifted here too. Abdul didn't lose Detroit, per se, rather he went up against a community that rightly so doesn't trust easily and are focused on harm reduction. the work starts all over again, now.

Rather absurd framing when you consider the results up and down the ballot, and where expectations were before just the last few weeks.

Progressives didn’t get the big election night they wanted

The fuck we didn’t. Is the media really going to make an argument that the establishment and AIPAC won a moral victory here?

Progressives didn’t get the big election night they wanted

VoteHub projects Abdul El-Sayed to win the Democratic primary for Michigan U.S. Senate.

There have been so many election nights over the past year that have been laying the groundwork for November. We are going to have a massively Democratic favorable electoral environment in November, but who those Democrats are is so important. So amazed by these new progressives.

Goodnight

Who's better at burning piles of money? Data centers or AIPAC?

Abdul El Sayed won. Boom. Let's go beat Rogers and MAGA.

NBC projects El-Sayed the winner of the Michigan Senate primary! www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...

Michigan Senate Primary Election 2026 Live Results: Stevens, El-Sayed, Rogers and More

See live results from the 2026 Michigan Senate primary election as Republican and Democrat votes are counted by candidate and county.

nbcnews.com

🚨🚨 Abdul El Sayed wins the Democratic Senate primary in Michigan, NBC News projects. He defeats Haley Stevens.

NBC Calls it for Abdul El-Sayed to win the Democratic nomination for Senate in Michigan. We're waiting on AP call and another network.

NBC just called it for El-Sayed

Yeah the polls were definitely way off, but primary polls are notoriously noisy. Even in elections like this one, we shouldn't expect them to nail things the way they will in a general election. Trying to model a primary electorate like this is HARD. No one should be shocked they were off.

THIS IS STRESSFUL

Nice! Michigan voters will get a chance to vote for a young progressive in a competitive district in a swing state.

Decision Desk HQ projects William Lawrence wins the MI US House 7 Democratic Primary #DecisionMade: 10:41 PM EDT

She's basically running even in the county she represents. Its not even guaranteed she'll win Oakland county as more election day votes come in! I just don't see how she's going to win this when we have very few votes from Wayne where El Sayed is going to absolutely crush. Dearborn anybody?

VoteHub@votehub.com · 15h ago

From Zachary Donnini: “This is narrowing at a rapid rate and will come down to Wayne. Stevens is vastly outperforming expectations across a lot of whiter, less urban areas. El-Sayed exceeding his targets in Kent, Washtenaw, and Oakland. Stevens exceeding elsewhere.”

These are insane numbers. If El-Sayed wins after being outspent by this much, wow, watch out!

Fun fact, Rep Breyer has the best wall art of any congressional office I’ve visited. Yes I have been waiting for an excuse to share this.

Rep. Don Beyer wins Democratic primary as Mizusawa, Beckwith earn nods in GOP races

Still very early but the man is killing it so far.

i think we can learn a lot from this actually. there's this growing take that we need to figure out how to welcome data centers or else they will be placed in low-income communities... but people can actually just be against something full stop, and that can also make standards better for everyone

Madison Condon@madisoncondon.bsky.social · 19h ago

the original use of NIMBY was actually people opposing nuclear and hazardous waste disposal sites in the 80s, it got turned into opposing housing much more recently

Happy AIPAC loses its biggest election yet day to those who celebrate! Appreciate all of you in Michigan doing the work!

God I love how easy it BlueSky makes it to block annoying accounts.

A lot of online leftists don't understand what is saying about the anxieties that feed into MAHA and then relating it to what are essentially the core issues of environmental justice is not supporting MAHA. She's right, our health care system IS corrupt AF.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@ocasio-cortez.house.gov · 2d ago

There is pervasive corruption across our healthcare and agricultural systems that defy party lines. I meet with MAHA activists because a lot of their concerns are bipartisan issues that major corporations paint as partisan. The fight isn't left and right, it's top and bottom.

Yall the llm “hacks “ are just brute force nonsense that scripts have been able to do for ages being released as marketing nonsense as desperate attempts to delay the inevitable bubble collapse. This shit is not Skynet.

Man my whole adult life has been a history of getting rid of stuff that becomes a fad. At least we still have binders of my wife's CDs (she had way more actual CDs than me anyway - I had so much burned stuff) but we don't have the jewel cases anymore.

I was already an Oliva Miles fan but this pretty much cements me as a Lynx fan.

We have MOUNTAINS of data that show climate hushing is the exact opposite approach electeds should be taken and I’ve argued this on the Hill with mixed results. You also need to show young voters you actually believe in fighting for their futures. Leadership is more than listening to consultants!

Ed Maibach@maibached.bsky.social · 4d ago

I’m pleased to see @350.org, @thirdactorg.bsky.social & @naacpmainline.bsky.social rolling up their sleeves to end climate silence on the campaign trail. Our polls clearly show: Americans want their leaders to take climate action. @mason4c.bsky.social @yaleclimatecomm.bsky.social
