Need everyone in New York to wake up and look at who they used as an example for the city council voting guide for the upcoming election because it’s insane
Dear friends, during some recent medical examinations, the doctors found a small, localized nodule in my lung. It was detected at a very early stage and is well-localized. The doctors believe that it is best to intervene, so, following their advice, I have decided to undergo surgery to remove it. The operation is already scheduled to take place in the coming days. I thank you for your spiritual closeness and entrust myself to your prayers.
As a former NYC Council Member, I know this reality firsthand. My home was broken into. I received countless death threats. I had to install security cameras, panic buttons in my home and offices, and limit constituent visits to appointments only.
But the toll extends beyond elected officials. Our staff, who show up every day to serve our communities, are also forced to navigate fear, threats, and uncertainty. They and their families carry that burden, too.
No one should have to fear for their safety simply because they chose public service. When intimidation becomes normalized, it doesn’t just threaten individuals. It undermines our ability to serve the very communities that elected us.
In 1911, Wisconsin pioneered the income tax because a property tax on land was not sufficient when industrialization began producing most of the wealth.
Today, California is pioneering a billionaire tax to address a modern economy where wealth generation is concentrated in the hands of a few, with explosive asset appreciation that escapes ordinary taxation.
A billionaire tax is not class warfare or punitive, but an innovative economic solution for a changing economy.
@dlondonwortel@loud_socialist Now we need one on Greenpoint - building apartments over and next to the most toxic waste sites in the country - and not even letting residents know when they sign their leases and buy their properties.
The next few days are our best chance to force Zohran to fire Tisch or force Tisch to resign.
Lock in. The people close to Mamdani admin are now seeking to redirect the Palestine Movement’s anger towards justifying firing Tisch.
The window is open right now. Seize it!
