Proud that we endorsed, and even prouder of my city tonight. Moral clarity and solidarity can win - NYC has never looked more beautiful ❤️
This week, the member leaders of @WorkersUnitedNY, working in manufacturing, retail, food service, garment making and distribution centers, voted to endorse both @ZohranKMamdani and @bradlander for NYC Mayor as fighters for the working people of this city. #dontrankcuomo

This is a bruising defeat for a candidate mounting a comeback. But it’s equally as embarrassing for all the people who called for his resignation and endorsed Cuomo’s mayoral run.

This weekend our members were getting out the vote for @ZohranKMamdani! We know he will fight for dignity, justice, and a city that puts everyday New Yorkers first. Rank him and @bradlander in your top 2 and #dontrankcuomo. Tomorrow is Election Day. LET'S GO.

Alex Fine made a great statement via Cassie’s lawyer about the narratives online about how he must feel sitting there listening to her testimony and how he saved her. He said that’s an insult to the years of painful work she did and that she saved herself.

Here is @katie_honan confronting @NYPDDCPI with evidence that the chain he wielded to imply that “outside agitators” barricaded Hamilton Hall is a common bike lock that @Columbia itself sold to their students

Amazon billed its "Just Walk Out" stores as some triumph of AI. In reality, it was powered by thousands of low-paid Indian workers manually adding up items in your cart as you shopped. How insanely dystopian. gizmodo.com/amazon-reportedl…

I'm something of a NYC nationalist—I really think it's a miracle that all the peoples of the world can live together in one city basically in peace and harmony—and this UES halal cart vendor story is only reinforcing that. documentedny.com/2023/11/22/…

Thousands of Starbucks employees nationwide are set to walk off the job today in the largest work stoppage in the five-decade history of the company, the union representing the workers said in a statement to @ABC News. trib.al/q2zPlJ3

One day, when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this.

Vernikov, who was arrested Friday for bringing a gun to a pro-Palestine protest, met today with Ingrid Lewis-Martin, Mayor Adams' chief adviser. "We have true friends in this administration," the Republican Council member says.
Some quiet tea time with @ingridBKNY this am. Talked about the genocidal war in Israel, atrocities committed against the Jewish people, & the fear our communities here in NYC are experiencing. I can say with unequivocal certainty that we have true friends in this administration.

TODAY @hexworkers delivered a petition w/ 1,100+ signatures urging @HexAndCompany mgmt to recognize their union. Instead of respecting the 75%+ of workers who decided to form a union, mgmt is demanding a secret ballot election. 👇These are classic anti-worker talking points 🧵
