AOC is doing a tour of Europe signaling interest in running for President. Meanwhile Republicans are trying to rewrite the rules of democracy to maintain power. My friend Sam writes for Convergence that only a socialist mass movement candidate can build the power to protect our democracy.

also join @socialists.nyc for a solidarity picket at 5pm this Friday at Mt Sinai West.
Support striking @nynurses.bsky.social! Made a map showing active strike locations giving you directions to get there, write letters to Hochul / CEOs and support the strike fund.
Video I made earlier this week about the big democratic socialist vs progressive showdown between Claire and Reynoso!
Made a little video about Our Time and their email tool that takes 30 seconds to fill out and send an email to your rep demanding universal childcare.

Finished the first ever canvass for @dianaforqueens.com talked to a bunch of neighbors about the special election to replace Zohran.
Hundreds of us knocked thousands of doors and this is just the beginning!
NYC is set to have a new city council speaker. Here is a brief breakdown of who she is and how she got selected.
βThis is the most kid-friendly political event Iβve ever been to!β π₯Ή
This is what our campaign is about: centering working families and our babies' future. Thank you to the 100+ neighbors who joined us yesterday in Astoria for our first event & helped us raise over $7.4k! βπ½β€οΈ
Did a little re-cap of the potential race between Chi & Jeffries.
NYC-DSA is great because we are grappling with a real stakes and rank and file members have a say over its direction.
The day's not even over, and we've already raised over $25,000 from 300+ donors, without a cent from corporations or the real estate lobby. We're so grateful for all of you.
Let's keep the momentum going! Join us this Saturday in Astoria for our official campaign kickoff. RSVP at the link below β¬οΈ

So HYPED! to be part of launching this campaign developing & designing the website.
Not only is the site beautiful, taking inspiration from N/W line & Chuquiraga flowers, but also has fun little treats, like a district map with Diana's favorite local spots.
More to come!
My name is Diana Moreno. Iβm a Queens mom, an immigrant organizer, and a proud democratic socialist with @socialists.nyc.
Iβm running to replace @ZohranKMamdani.bsky.social in the Assembly in the upcoming special election to deliver on his affordability agenda and fight the rising tide of fascism.
lol, for sure a bit of reading what other people put out, and bringing in a local organizer perspective, not too many people even those into politics know about BPRA, NYPA and there is this cute little 1930s connection between BPRA and some thing Lina has been grabbing at.
Learn about how both Lina Khan & Zohran are revitalizing FDR era pieces of our government and how that will change prices in NYC & save our environment.
Did a write-up about the app here! ericthor.com/portfolio/ew...
Grocery workers are essential and deserve better pay!
I teamed up with ew4d.org to create a mobile web app that allows workers to compare their contract to others across the nation.
Empowering workers to fight for better pay and better conditions!
Quick recap of some of the many things going over the past two days since Zohran has been elected! Have been organizing with Zohran for past fews years whatβs happening with the campaign/admin inside and outside. As well as upcoming local candidates that have just announced today.
Voted Early for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and had a little fun spooking local right wing council member
Super excited for Diana running! Iβve been organizing with her for years made a little video about her deciding to run
Get hyped! I was part of the core team that helped Zohran get elected to this seat in 2020 I've been organizing with Diana for years and I can't think of anyone better to continue to carry the torch of our movement to Albany!
More to come, but confrontation still ongoing with the masked agents trying to leave Canal Street and a spontaneous crowd of counter protesters.
Thank you!
nice work
Last week, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social said Cuomoβs jacket should show all his Trump billionaire donors like sponsor logos. So I built a website that does exactly that! votecuomo.com
Join NYC-DSA.

Yes! It was really easy to make. Working on a tool that any campaign can use will be coming out in a few weeks!
