One more thing, if the survival of the NYC metropolitan region is the kind of thing you care about:

A Lee Zeldin-controlled MTA would mean devastating cuts to service, maintenance & investments that would decimate the subway for a generation.

MAGA extremist Lee Zeldin has no plan to actually tackle the affordability crisis.

He stands with reactionary billionaires trying to reverse the rights and protections NYers have won for working families.

It’s so disingenuous for Lee Zeldin to say he wants to create jobs when he voted against the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Inflation Reduction Act. He cannot be trusted to grow our economy.

Lived in the neighborhood I represent my whole life, been in politics for a bit, and I've never seen anyone as twisted as Nicole Malliotakis. She is a caricature, demagogue and a fraud. Imagine not even believing the divisive bile you spew? NY11 deserves better. Elect Max Rose👊🏼

I’ll be voting for Kathy Hochul on the Working Families Party 🐺 Party line (and making calls w/ NY Working Families Party & Phara Souffrant Forrest tmw to encourage others to do the same, join us!)

Whichever line you plan to vote for her on: please help spread the word about just how serious this election is.

Zeldin continues to cast doubt on the 2020 election, demagogues on public safety, has no plan for (or even interest in) the housing crisis, and interrupted Mara Gay about a dozen times.

He’s set on preserving something. But it’s not inclusive democracy.

antisemitism rapidly becoming a proxy for anti-woke on the establishment fringe.

Next it’ll be a dog whistle from Cruz, a bullhorn from Trump…

At this rate it’ll show up as greater than 40% approval among Republicans by 2024.

Who knew Know Your Enemy would be essential preparation for the ?!

Thx Sam Adler-Bell @matthewsitman & Cardinal Dolan for bringing Jumaane Williams & me together w/Sohrab Ahmari, Pro-Life New Dealer. We geeked out about coercion in the economy & I found it surprisingly hard to disagree.

“I guess they’re doing some kind of round up thing.”

This will make you sick to your stomach for our feeble democracy. Ron DeSantis belongs in the same hall of infamy w/other power-abusers who engage in round-ups to throw people in jail for the sole purpose of clinging to power.

BlackRock (and other asset managers) can't have it both ways:

Climate change is a systemic investment risk.

Keeping fossil fuels in the ground must be central to any plan to mitigate that risk to our portfolio and our planet.
