US and Israeli aggression against Iran is the same imperialist playbook that gave us the "War on Terror" and slaughtered thousands.
Working-class Americans want and deserve a government that prioritizes making their lives better,

As usual, wonderful writing by @hangryeyes.bsky.social. One quibble: I'd replace "only" with "best." Both elders and experience have taught me that what may look like the only way to fulfill an objective is rarely the only way—especially when considering matters as complex as a presidential race.
His People’s Platform and two presidential runs offered a bold vision for a multiracial working-class movement and the expansion of Black political power—a model the populist left continues to look to today.
Today we celebrate the legacy of Reverend Jesse Jackson, whose 1988 presidential campaign was endorsed by the Democratic Socialists of America.
Jackson was a powerful force in American politics and one of the most vocal critics of the Democrats and Republicans' neoliberal austerity agenda.
Happy Valentine's Day!
This Valentine's Day, let the warmth of collectivism fill your heart.💗🌹
The rampant success of NYC-DSA shows the energizing potential of mass politics. The dreams, sweat, blood, and tears that went into Zohran's campaign built this, just as they continue to build up socialist power in NYC.
Congratulations to @socialists.nyc, this is just the beginning.🌹

NPC member Jeremy Cohan (SMC) introduced a resolution to Endorse “Block the Bombs,” which was lightly amended and unanimously approved by the NPC. The Block the Bombs Act would be a vital step towards curbing Israel's ability to commit genocide.

We applaud the efforts of SMC members Jana and @christianaraos.bsky.social in working with @progintl.bsky.social at Neustra America for the adoption of the San Carlos Declaration. Christian and Jana successfully advocated for the inclusion of language concerning the rights of migrants in the US.

On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we remember him not just as a trailblazing civil rights activist, but as a democratic socialist. He saw that an end to racism also meant an end to capitalism and class inequality—a fact often ignored by whitewashed histories of his activism.

Trump's war with Venezuela only serves to further enrich corporate powers here in the US, fuel the US war machine, and distract from pressing domestic issues.
There must be no war with Venezeula. The working people of the world will not be pitted against each other.
We congratulate SMC member Tascha Van Auken on her appointment!
Democracy does not end at the ballot box. With Tascha at the helm, we know that Zohran's administration will work tirelessly to give working people the voice they have been denied.
