Summer 2015. Several lifetimes ago. A different America.
Lindsey Graham, running for president, says this about Joe Biden. The same summer he said Trump would “kill” the GOP with his hateful comments.
Several lifetimes ago. A different America.
BREAKING: the clock struck midnight and our bipartisan housing bill is now law.
Trump refused to sign it, but he couldn't stop it.
This law is GROUNDBREAKING.
It will build more housing, bring down costs, and for the first time, stop private equity from buying up homes.
The ROAD to Housing Act has become law without Donald Trump’s signature after he did not sign or veto it within a 10-day deadline.
Trump withheld his signature from the housing bill, which was supported by both parties, in protest of the SAVE America Act failing to pass.
@getKralled@StatisticUrban I guess more depending on who the Dem nominee is? Because Tiffany (the Republican nominee) is apart of the freedom caucus and one of the most conservative members of Congress
@Speeding_m@StatisticUrban Beto lost by 2.5% and on the same ballot Abbott won by 13.3%. Unfortunately, it’s not in play according to history and polls. Dem gubernatorial candidates have a hard time gaining name recognition as well against such a longtime Governor.
BREAKING NYT:
A New York City panel just voted to freeze rents for nearly one million rent-stabilized apartments — fulfilling one of Mayor Zohran Mamdani's key campaign promises and handing the mayor a major policy win six months into his tenure. https://t.co/hs8vrRZ5bW
Um... Yeah.
He attempted a coup. He stole top secret documents and kept them at his country club. He would have absolutely gone to prison had he lost the election.
Hayes: Endorsing against incumbents really is kind of the unwritten rule in this. Tish James, who was a very vocal backer of yours when you were running for mayor—and even a backer of yours when I think it was pretty politically controversial to be so—had this to say. She said she and other political leaders she’s spoken to are disappointed in Zohran Mamdani. “All of us are a little frustrated with the Democratic Party, but you don’t blow it up. That’s what MAGA has done.” What do you say to that?
Mamdani: I think, what is the Democratic Party if not its voters? And what we saw yesterday evening were Democrats across the city turning out and voting for a new kind of politics.
And I’ve been clear time and time again that I believe the only majority in our country is that of the working class. And what we saw is that a focus on the working class.
And I have a deep amount of respect for my friend, Attorney General James. And I also believe that these are the kinds of candidates that we need to see in Congress, as well as the five state legislative candidates that I endorsed that also won yesterday evening.
I made a promise to New Yorkers that I would use every tool at my disposal to actually transform this city into one that they could afford.
And one of those tools is using your political capital to ensure that the people who will fight hardest for that same agenda are going to be there, whether it’s in Albany or whether it’s in D.C.
