Morning. ☕️
ICYMI: The race for Minnesota's open U.S. Senate seat is only getting testier as progressive Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan surges while moderate Rep. Angie Craig runs from her immigration votes that aided Trump.
“It’s gonna get gross.”

This weekend was less than 50% of last year's turnout.
@bradlander.bsky.social is our guy, y'all. Endorsed by @bkindivisible.bsky.social, @nywfp.bsky.social, & a million other progressive groups. He SHOWS UP, every time. I've seen him more than any other elected in person, without even trying. I've NEVER seen Goldman in person.

Here's @drewforny.bsky.social in the @forward.com saying he's for divesting from Israel bonds.
"New York state must not enable or be complicit in such human misery any longer."
He got my vote.

it costs us over £600 a month to have our 3yr old in nursery full time and that’s after the free working parent hours and tax free childcare but yeah it’s probably the phones
I've seen Siffert at an anti-ICE rally and an @aimoratoriumnyc.bsky.social anti-"A.i." rally. Strikes me as a sharp, serious, competent person who knows what's what. I'd vote for them if I lived in the district!
For NY State Comptroller, I voted for @drewforny.bsky.social. DiNapoli supports investing in Israel bonds. Goyle says good things, but @cityandstateny.bsky.social notes he had a conservative voting record in Kansas.
No thanks! Warshaw for me!

A wee group of angry balaclava and mask-wearing anti-immigration guys tried to stop the good people of Glasgow showing solidarity with migrants and standing up to racism and fascism. Well, the far right are far outnumbered...

It is time to stop investing in a government that acts in contradiction to our people's deepest values
The candidates running against incumbent Tom DiNapoli in his first-ever primary are each jockeying to position themselves as the true progressive choice in the contest.
Are smartphones causing people to have fewer children? A provocative new working paper explores the persistent drop in birth rates since the iPhone was introduced nearly two decades ago.
Hey, friends in NYC! Early voting in the D primaries has begun! Find a polling site and view your sample ballot here: vote.nyc/page/find-yo...
And read on for some suggestions of folks I'd highly recommending voting for!

These dudes just genuinely seem to like each other. Loved that vibe during the mayoral primary; love it now. This is the vibe NYC needs, deserves, and wants. Vote for @bradlander.bsky.social in NY-10, friends.
Dan also supports a mask ban because he thinks disabled people dying during an unmitigated airborne pandemic will somehow combat antisemitism. And he cries on TV about how he’s too scared to do his job yet every teacher in America has to be fully prepared to take a bullet for your kids. Weak shit.

@bradlander.bsky.social and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social at the Jewish & Muslim Solidarity Rally at Carroll Park in Brooklyn!
Hey, NY-10, listen to Mr. Mayor and vote for Brad Lander in the Democratic primary!
Huge turnout at the rally, tremendously good vibes. More pictures coming...

Biggest race on my ballot is NY-10. I voted for @bradlander.bsky.social over Dan Goldman. Yes, Goldman's done well with anti-ICE work. But he refused to endorse Mamdani, voted to censure Talib, and is AIPAC's candidate in this race. Lander represents solidarity, safety, joy, and the future.
Greg Pak
A HUGE crowd, with a couple hundred lined up to get pictures with Lander afterwards. A whole lotta people love this guy. Multiple speakers talked about his years of solidarity and that Muslim and Jewish safety are the SAME THING.
