Bernie Sanders lost the fight in 2016. A decade later, he won the war.
Sanders’ brand of laser-focused economic populism trounced MAGA this week — winning not just with El-Sayed in Michigan, but Talarico’s in Texas and other red states.
Bernie isn’t surprised.
“No, I am not shocked,” he told me. “It’s what I’ve always believed.”
My interview with Sanders on the midterms, his movement and 2028:

If anything part of what also has happened last night was showing that the line politics caucuses of DSA especially in the NPC are deeply out of touch with the political moment and conjuncture. It reminded me of Marx's famous 1868 letter.

ICE HSI agent Kent Blacklidge who racially profiled and tackled US citizen Leo Venegas while trespassing at his worksite (the first of Leo's three illegal detainments) was just arrested for rape and child sex crimes. The agent's duties had included child sex investigations.
ICE wrestled Alabama worker to the ground & detain him for hours—he is a U.S. citizen.
Young man was begging & shouting, "I am a U.S. citizen"—but that didn't stop ICE agents from dragging him off to a detention center.
Not following due process hurts us all—and our economy.
His family said that ICE agents did release him after he was finally given the opportunity to prove he was a U.S. citizen—but only after many hours.
This construction site in Foley, Alabama was forced to shut down for at least the day. How many other businesses were affected?

They’re calling it “loser Leninism.” A self appointed vanguard whose aim is to convince working people good things aren’t possible, and workers are incapable of wielding power to force their representatives to serve their interests.

בתוך כל הבלאגן של זיני לא הספקתי לתת את המעצר האלים מאוד הזה אתמול באמצע ת"א.
שוטרים מכים עצור באמצע פקק תנועה, לפי עדי ראיה "דפקו לו מכות על סף לינץ', הם עצרו רק כי ראו שצילמו אותם'".
אפשר גם לשמוע את האטרף שם של השוטרים סביב המעצר.
נמתין להתייחסות המשטרה.

הלילה נעצר מעצר פוליטי עבד אבו שחאדה , חבר יקר, פעיל שלום שנאבק שנים למען שוויון, שותפות וצדק לכל יושבי הארץ הזו.
בספרנו The Future Is Peace, עבד מביא בעוצמה ובכאב עצום את קולו ואת סיפור ההרס וההשמדה בעזה. המעצר שלו הוא ביטוי מובהק לרדיפה ולסתימת פיות, שמתאימים למשטרים אפלים. מי שחיפש עוד הוכחה לכך שהפרקטיקות מהגדה המערבית מחלחלות ומשתלטות גם בתוך תחומי הקו הירוק, קיבל אותה הלילה, שוב.
ככל שנתקרב לחילופי השלטון, כך נראה יותר אובדן עשתונות, יותר טירוף ויותר מעצרים פוליטיים. אסור לנו לשתוק מול המגמה הזו, לא בגדה ולא בתוך ישראל.
אני קורא לשחרורו המיידי של עבד ומפציר בקהילה הבין-לאומית להתערב.

Last night was a defeat for the ultras. For PSL. For the People's Forum. For Roy Singham. For the NPC majority in DSA. And ofc for Trump and the Republicans.
But It was a victory for Americans who want something better for themselves - and for everyone else as well.

I am so happy that Bernie Sanders is with us today to be able to see the fruits of his labor. He cultivated a whole generation of young leaders through the movement he spawned who are now winning seats everywhere. And he gets to live to witness it. Thank you, Bernie.

the mandatory sex change surgeries begin TONIGHT. all republican voters, please report to your local abortion clinic voluntarily or a bisexual MS-13 member will be sent to your home. somehow, pansexual orgies and shariah law are simultaneously in effect as of this moment

Thank you @claireforny for unequivocally condemning the antisemitic defacement of the school buses of our Satmar Hasidic neighbors.
Blaming all Jews for the actions of Israel is antisemitism (and you really expose your blind hatred of Jews when you target those who are explicitly not Zionists).
It doesn’t matter whether this hatemonger is right-wing or left-wing. Let’s make sure that hate has no home here.

We got your back, New York!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026).

The Post is right.
I'm sporting a mustache this "Movember" to raise awareness of men’s health issues, including prostate cancer.
But this isn’t just (upper) lip service.
This year, our administration is investing $4M toward a brand-new prostate cancer center at Kings County hospital in Brooklyn.

We were nearly killed two days ago.
Settler-terrorist Tomer Liani bashed my head against the ground repeatedly, then the IDF and police blocked the ambulances and prevented hospitalisation.
All because we caught the settlers locking locking a gate to more than 20 Palestinian communities, trapping entire families.
We exposed Tomer Liani, Shimon Atia and Nevo Nadalski directly committing crimes against humanity in Masafer Yatta, and we were punished by the Israeli police and court for this.
Israeli state terrorism in the West Bank is at its peak, and the authorities are doing everything to keep Palestinian voices silent.
