Proponents of AI like to paint a picture of a society whose decisions are informed by the cutting edge science that AI will make possible neglect to mention that we are not even following what human scientists have been telling us for years.
DSA can lead and deliver what New Yorkers need — a permanent, fully funded Department of Community Safety. We thank the Groundworkers who organized over several months to make this campaign a reality: Lizzy O., Farudh E., and Rasha H.

NJ transit is a joke compared to MTA. New Jersey fund your trains goddamit
Most important thing I’ve learned at Rehoboth Beach is that there are Italian brainrot tshirts now
My union paid me $45 to hear Hakeem Jeffries speak, and I think they should’ve paid us more to suffer through reheated Bernie-lite talking points
Four recent books of new Marx/ist scholarship on nature, politics, power and energy from the 2020s. All very good! Seems like a new wave, we can finally stop saying “Since 2008 global financial crisis” and start saying “Since 2020s total planetary chaos…”

“Every demand of the simplest bourgeois financial reform, of the most ordinary liberalism, of the most formal republicanism, of the most shallow democracy, is simultaneously castigated as an “attempt on society” and stigmatized as “socialism.”” Crazy how 1852 sounds like now
"The establishment is not spinning the results because they were ambiguous, but because they were clear. And clarity — that the coalition opposing them is not a vanity project...is the one thing they cannot let the public see. They’ve lost the next generation. The maps say so. Twice."

“The essence of anti-fascism consists in resisting fascism by defending democracy [...] the antagonisms between proletariat & capital, communism & wage-labour, proletariat & state, are rejected for a counter-position of democracy & fascism presented as the quintessential revolutionary perspective.”

We deserve more than politics as usual. Union organizer and State Assembly member Claire Valdez is running for Congress in NY-07 and fighting for real working-class power: Unions for All, Housing for All, Medicare for All — and a path to legalize millions of immigrant Americans.
If you want a candidate who won't take money from: ❌ landlords + developers ❌ AI + crypto ❌ AIPAC ...well, that's me. But if your redline is a donation from Oscar-nominated actor Ed Norton...I'm afraid you'll have to look elsewhere.

Trump’s career is an affirmation of the effectiveness of lying in politics. The ubiquity of lying is also why the public generally despises politics. Public cynicism often makes it even easier for politicians to lie without consequences. This quandary is not easy to solve.
Mr. Dan Zak@mrdanzak.com · 7mo agoBrad voted Trump bc he promised to be “the most pro-farmer president you’ve ever had.” Instead, tariffs cut Brad’s export market; the war surged fertilizer prices by 70%. So Brad arranged his family’s final sale. “Farm is going dry,” said the ad. “Every cow must go.” www.nytimes.com/2026/05/03/u...
Didn’t see my union at the May Day march, honestly not surprised but like still at least pretend to care about workers (NB: they’re trying to crush their staffers unionizing)
Happy International Workers' Day. At the @us.theguardian.com, I wrote about the long struggle of working people to win a dignified life and the big fight ahead against a powerful new oligarchy. Solidarity forever. And see you in the streets.
Working Americans are taking the streets for May Day. Will Democrats pay attention? | Claire Valdez
Americans are fed up with an establishment that has abandoned the working class. It’s time to organize for change
