It's highly likely I'm biased, but I think we have the best obituary of Dick Cheney anywhere, and it's all in one frame. From the incredible, 2x Pulitzer-Prize finalist @MattBors, who we're lucky to have as our @inthesetimesmag Comics Editor.

Zohran was polling at 6% in January. Cuomo and his supporters spent tens of millions to defeat him. And yet he won.
Our movements are stronger than their money.
"In the waning days of the race, Cuomo veered fully into Islamophobia & AI dystopia, amping up fear & hate. And over the final 36 hours, Cuomo’s twisted campaign was endorsed by Donald Trump & Elon Musk—making the lines, & the stakes, very clear."

With @ZohranKMamdani's win, New York is fighting to save itself. The movement that brought him to office has to stay engaged to deliver his wins. Tonight though, we celebrate.

Zohran Mamdani has made history as New York City’s first Muslim, socialist mayor — and for In These Times contributor, @emanabdelhadi, his victory feels like a love letter to the New York that both embraced and opened the world to her.

Today @bradlander wrote an op-ed on Zohran Mamdani’s historic win — and the work ahead.
“When Donald Trump sends troops here, it won’t be Trump vs. Mamdani. It’ll be Trump vs. New York City.”

Tenants are fighting back! Across 4 states, hundreds are joining the @TenantFed to take on mega-landlord Capital Realty Group—demanding collective bargaining and better conditions in private-equity-owned housing. This is resistance in action.

Seems especially relevant now. (March 2024).
"For the love of whatever you believe in, stop acting like “even Tom Friedman” is a meaningful way to think about the vast and seismic changes happening in the U.S. political landscape."

For @inthesetimesmag I argued that "New Yorkers will only win the campaign promises Mamdani ran on if they keep the movement that elected him alive." Looks like @ZohranKMamdani agrees!!!

Andrew Cuomo warned that if “the socialist wing wins, the Democratic Party dies.”
After Zohran Mamdani’s landslide in NYC, @MilesKLassin argues it might finally be time to build something new.

The Democrats’ centrist wing suffered its latest humiliation with Andrew Cuomo’s defeat in New York City. It’s time for something new—and the victory of democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani points the way. Wrote about it for @inthesetimesmag inthesetimes.com/article/zoh…
"From Bagram Air Base and Abu Ghraib to Guantánamo and countless clandestine dungeons, Dick Cheney oversaw the build-up of the U.S. empire’s archipelago of repression."
@Alberto63137378 examines a life defined by impunity and the empire it built.
