I've got a bone to pick with whoever is in charge. Views my own!

Zohran Mamdani built an anti-loneliness campaign. He met voters who were attached to screens, isolated from the pandemic, spiritually unmoored — and got them out of the house, because the political, to them, was personal. W/ the wonderful @boreskes https://t.co/OY4OggShp8

Philly friends, please attend and spread the word about the Socialist Job Fair on Sept 6 — get a job with comrades!

[Philly DSA 🌹 @PhillyDSA]

Tired of your job? Feeling alienated and alone at work? Wish you had a union?

Join our Labor Committee and DSA elected Senator Saval’s office at the Philly DSA Socialist Job Fair—and get a job with comrades!

[Senator Nikil Saval @SenatorSaval]

My statement on Congress’s passage of Trump’s devastating tax and spending bill. My office will continue to fight—legislatively, organizationally, in the streets—for a new vision in which all of us have what we need to thrive.

[actually it’s good @yungchomsky]

Ah you loved me as a loser, but now you're worried that I just might win
You know the way to stop me, but you don't have the discipline
How many nights I prayed for this, to let my work begin
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

.@SenatorSaval has been the champion of the Whole-Homes Repair Act since he was first elected.

The program is a one-stop shop for home repairs and weatherization for Pennsylvanians.

It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.

While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change.

And they’re right.

🧵The ballot measures last night say a few things about voters’ feelings about the economy.
Here is how they played out.

PAID SICK LEAVE
All three measures requiring employers to provide paid sick leave PASSED (AK, MO, NE)
All 3 states went to Trump

1/x

[Daniel Denvir @DanielDenvir]

I’d vote Harris in a swing state because Trump will create worse social, economic, and political conditions for people and for our movements. But a Harris victory creates problems too, including by making the case that the Democratic Party can back genocide without consequence 1/

[Senator Nikil Saval @SenatorSaval]

Plans to build an arena in the heart of our city pose an existential threat to Chinatown. Philly doesn’t want an arena here, and neither do I. Proud to join with so many people fighting for their homes, for their neighbors, for this beloved community, and for our city.✊🏾

[LizaMinnelliOutlives @LiZaOutlives]

Liza Minnelli has outlived Joe Biden's race for re-election. After weeks of pressure from fellow Democrats, he is stepping down as the party's nominee for President.

[Philly DSA 🌹 @PhillyDSA]

Solidarity with stadium workers! Aramark continues to raise prices, but not wages for the workers who serve your food and drink. We stand with @uniteherephilly as they fight for a fair contract.

Next time you go see the Phils, give a word of encouragement to concessions workers!

[Philly Zoo @phillyzoo]

Cindy's turning 35 🥳 Don't scroll past without saying HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

[Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee (EWOC) @organizeworkers]

We're very saddened to hear about the passing of Jane McAlevey, a true legend in labor organizing.

May her memory be a blessing. Her lessons certainly are.

[Rep. Elizabeth Fiedler @RepFiedler]

For @PhillyInquirer, South Philly parents speak about the importance of the SEYAA playing fields. I am one of those parents.

PennDOT’s proposals for the I-95 project threaten the fields & should not continue without true engagement from the people whose lives will be affected.

[P.E. Moskowitz @_pem_pem]

the replies to this are so disheartening. i'm not anti- anyone taking drugs to cope but americans' incuriousness about why we as a country take SO MANY MORE mental health meds than anywhere else is funny to me. like you think it's normal for 30+ percent of people to be depressed?
