Democrats need Zohran Mamdani and other young politicians with fight in their hearts and rage in their bellies who can show that Trump is bad for working people and terrible for America and the world, and who can point the way forward.

As a physician, I can’t stay silent. $1T in Medicaid cuts, provider tax caps, and work requirements will cost lives. This isn’t reform. It’s a heist.

My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.

I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

A reminder that the @nytimes.com told New Yorkers to not rank Mamdani at all, & instead endorsed former hedge fund manager Whitney Tilson.

Tilson sits at a whopping .8%.

Corporate media trust is dead. They killed themselves by failing to fulfill their promise of holding the powerful accountable.

The power to declare war lies solely with the United States Congress. President Trump’s decision to launch direct military action against Iran without Congressional approval is unconstitutional and deeply reckless.

Harvard hired a researcher to uncover its ties to slavery. He says the results cost him his job: β€˜We found too many slaves’ When the extent of the university’s involvement with slavery was unearthed, a scholar tracking descendants of enslaved workers was suddenly fired

This is a remarkable story. Really shows how the legacies of colonialism and slavery structure US society, and the lengths that powerful actors and institutions will go to maintain the myth that the past has no bearing on the present.

it’s not surprising but still pretty telling and a bummer that AOC is the only member of the NY delegation to great Khalil upon his return. Both Pressley and Markey greeted Γ–ztΓΌrk (and she is a constituent of both). Columbia is not even in AOC’s district!

What fracking is doing to the Earthβ€”and to our bodies Beneath layers of ancient rock, a high-pressure process is reshaping the modern energy landscape. As fracking expands across the globe, so does the growing debate around its impact.

Great new explainer on the harms of fracking from National Geographic with summary of the newest science, research findings from from methane expert @profbobhowarth.bsky.social and quotes from me: β€œfracking is a public health crisis.” Yes, it is.

Of course fossil fuel companies should be held responsible for cleaning up the toxic, leaking messes they leave behind

But, in the meantime, wouldn't this be a better focus for the voluntary offset market than industrial tree plantations?

Calls to revisit oil and gas tax after government revises intake down $4bn The government expected to raise an additional $2.4 billion over four years thanks to changes to the tax on oil and gas profits. It is now forecasting to raise $4 billion less over that same time.

The government promised to make gas giants pay their share.

Instead, we're missing out on billions in tax income.

We have to stop giving our futures away for free, and damaging our country and climate in the process.
