“Socialist is not a dirty word anymore – that’s why they jumped to ‘communist,’” Jamaal Bowman said to @mehdirhasan. “Democrats, listen up. Take some lessons – don’t get on your Ezra Klein nonsense. Don’t let Ezra Klein 'analyze' what happened here,” he added. With @hasanthehun, @prem_thakker, and Mahmoud Khalil.
.@AOC says of Mamdani victory: "A lot of people...are willing to talk about party unity when it serves them, but not party unity when it serves everybody." "We have a future to fight for, and we're either going to do that together or you're going to be left behind."

October 19, 2025. On the first day of the olive harvest in Turmus'ayyer, the Israeli Defense Force leads a group of farmers directly into a brutal ambush by armed settlers. These people need to be in prison by tomorrow, and the people of this village, and all across Palestine, need to be protected. Enough is enough.

Holy shit. A Democratic mayor of a major city is actually calling for a General Strike instead of going back brunch. Based. Overdue, but very based.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson calls for a general strike against the “tyranny” of Trump and the greed of the ultra-rich. An estimated 300,000 filled the streets for the “No Kings” march, powerfully rejecting the federal government’s “Operation Midway Blitz” against the city.

Greta Thunberg: “Israeli soldiers hit, kicked, starved, and tortured me” • They placed a flag next to me, and anytime the flag touched me, they kicked me • Whenever I raised my head to look at Ben-Gvir, I was kicked • She was filmed while stripped naked • Prison was 40 degrees but no water was given to Greta and her friends for days • People fell sick. Guards mocked them saying they would gas them, showing them cylinders • She was kept in solitary confinement for hours with bugs — Aftonbladet

In prison, Israeli guards told him again and again that Israeli soldiers had killed his entire family – a form of psychological torture, he said, meant to break him. But when he walked up the stairs of his Gaza home today, his wife rushed into his arms, his children and parents beside her – alive, waiting, and all of them delirious with relief and joy.

John Oliver slams Bari Weiss' takeover of CBS News: "I wouldn’t want anyone who led a pure opinion outlet, not even one that I happened to agree with, to suddenly be running CBS News. But it is especially alarming to have someone doing it who has spent years putting out work that, in my opinion, is at best irresponsible and at worst deeply misleading." variety.com/2025/tv/news/joh…

They kidnapped Greta Thunberg in international waters, transferred her to the colony, and tortured her as a warning to others.
BREAKING 🚨 Flotilla participants report that Greta Thunberg was dragged by her hair, beaten, and forced to kiss the Israeli flag "as a warning to others." This news comes amid reports of other disturbing incidents of violent humiliation of Flotilla members.

This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza. Instead, 461 people—including New Yorkers—have been detained by the Israeli military. They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.
Earlier this week I joined colleagues in urging @SecRubio to protect the Global Sumud Flotilla. Now my constituent, Zuleyka Morales Rivera, a U.S. veteran, has been abducted with other Americans bringing aid to Gaza. The State Department must act to protect all captives. They must be kept safe, released immediately, and the aid must be allowed to reach those in desperate need.
