In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government.

She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her.

So I confronted him.

I'm proud to have the broadest coalition of support from elected officials, community members, and organizations, of any candidate in this race. We deserve
a Mayor that's ready to collaborate, work across differences, and deliver for residents of Minneapolis.

Live shot of the 2026 election night map if Democrats embrace the Abundance strategy of telling Americans that price-gouging landlords and real estate investment tycoons are actually the good guys.

Anonymous Durham Political Group Has Ties to Candidate It Endorsed Yes for Durham made candidate endorsements. But the group, which hasn’t disclosed its leadership, has ties to one endorsed candidate.

A newly formed nonprofit made endorsements in Durham’s municipal primary. But the group, which hasn’t disclosed its leadership, has ties to one endorsed candidate, raising questions about transparency and potential coordination.

Happy Labor Day! Want to build power with your co-workers? Salting, or getting a non-union job & organizing your workplace, is a vital tactic to build the labor movement. Hear about organizing basics, priority industries, & getting a job you can organize.

β€œThe Nation” Interviews Zohran Mamdani New York's Democratic mayoral nominee shares his views on the city's affordability crisis, the new media landscapeβ€”and how Democrats need to stand up for what they believe.

Last month, I sat down with @thenation.com to talk about the legacy of Fiorella La Guardia, how we're building a new kind of politics to meet this moment, and our mission to deliver a dignified life for the working people of this city.

Op-Ed: The Left Can Defeat the Rising Tide of Fascism History shows that oppressive systems can be overthrown, even when they seem insurmountable. What can we do locally?

For as long as I've known him, @natebakerdurham.bsky.social has preached the same policy agenda Zohran Mamdani has put a spotlight on in NYC.

Here for @indyweek.bsky.social, he makes the case for this Democratic Socialist agenda as the last best hope against fascism.

The executive committee of North Carolina’s Democratic Party passed a resolution on June 28 calling for an end to military aid, weapons shipments and logistical support to Israel. 

The resolution is similar to those passed in Wisconsin and Washington State Democratic Parties. The resolution passed by a slim margin, 161-151. 

The State executive committee consists of hundreds of members from across North Carolina. 

β€œThe billions in annual tax payer funds provided to Israel as military aid would be better used to address the needs of Americans in the United States,” the resolution read. 

This comes as Lara Trump is considering a run for Senate in the State after Sen.Tillis announced he would retire. Lara Trump would definitely be an ally for Israel and send our tax dollars to an apartheid State.

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.

Donald Trump is attacking me because he is desperate to distract from his war on working people. We must and we will fight back.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.
