Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?
Thank you to everyone who attended our Congressional campaign rally on Sunday, whether in person, over the livestream, or at one of our watch parties around the country!
It was a resounding success!
The mood in the room was electric, and we raised nearly $25,000 for our independent socialist campaign with over 200 people in attendance and thousands watching over livestream from across the nation.
Our campaign is demanding an end to the genocide in Gaza. We're fighting for a permanent ceasefire. We demand an end to ALL U.S. military aid to Israel, to Israel's apartheid system, and to the occupation of Palestinian lands. Now is not the time to slow down or pause the antiwar movement. Now is the time to ESCALATE!
We need a global intifada — a mass uprising against this genocide and the violent capitalist system — on a working-class basis.
We are fighting to shut down ICE and the detention centers
We're fighting for national rent control with a massive expansion of social housing and for free public healthcare funded by taxing the rich.
Thank you to Chris Hedges, Logan Swan, Takele Gobena, Rev. Adina Meyer, Jason Call, Nick Cruse @SocialistMMA, Keaton Weiss and Russell Dobular of @DueDissidence, Jozi Uebelhoer, David Montequin, and Katja Cresanti and Joan Wright of @ksr_united who are currently on strike!
Our powerful rally showed the tremendous opening for independent socialist politics. But to elect the first ever revolutionary socialist to the U.S. Congress, we need thousands of working people to get involved in the fight and to donate.

@AOC there is no such thing as "defensive military aid". When you give Israel the military infrastructure that ensures it can do its genocide and launch its wars against Lebanon, Yemen, Iran, Syria with full impunity, you are directly and intentionally funding and arming the genocide
so it seems like a new rhetorical strategy has dropped: concede that Israel is doing a genocide/war crimes but then proceed to spend 100 times more space complaining that the people opposing it are basically worse because they hurt Jewish feelings/makes Democrats look bad
Me: Has Israel committed war crimes?
@piersmorgan: We need to wait for due process.
Me: Does that apply to Hamas, too?
Piers: No, they did their war crimes on camera.
Me: So has Israel?
Piers: That’s the end of the show
