NEW from me @TheSpectator:

I’m at today’s long awaited @tiktok_us hearing, where the Communist spyware CEO is going to gaslight America

He’s now on on Cap Hill with a Socialist Congressman and a Biden-tied Mao lover's firm in his pockets

TikTok’s CEO is gearing up for a grilling in Congress, but he’s got some new, powerful allies in his corner: a political consulting firm whose founder lavished praise on Mao Zedong and is now one of Biden’s top aides — and a socialist congressman who thespectator.com/topic/tiktok-f…twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Shou Zi Chew, the company’s CEO, is at @HouseCommerce, where Republicans are planning to press him on the national security concerns posed by the video app’s parent company ByteDance’s ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

It should be noted that in #MI12 that although Rashida Tlaib won her reelection bid, she dropped -7.3% of the vote since her last election in 2020 meaning that at the current moment -26,604 less people voted for her.
Additionally, #MO1 Cori Bush also lost support.  At this moment she lost 6.1% of the vote from her last election in 2020 and is -89,045 votes behind her previous election bid.
Jamaal Bowman in #NY16 suffered some of the most losses of the “Squad” members. At this moment, He has dropped -23.1% of the vote compared to 2020. That is currently -92,744 votes than his last election in 2020.👀

The AP has called #FL11 GOP primary for Rep. Dan Webster. The longest-serving state legislator in FL history and its first GOP state House speaker since Reconstruction turns back far-right activist Laura Loomer in shockingly tight contest.
Over in GOP primary for open and dark red #OK02, former state Sen. Josh Brecheen leads state Rep. Avery Frix 54.5-45.5. Group affiliated with Club for Growth spent heavily for Brecheen, a former Club fellow.
AP calls #FL13 GOP primary for Trump's candidate, 2020 nominee Anna Paulina Luna. She'll face former DoD official Eric Lynn in seat GOP gerrymandered into 53-46 Trump.

In April, 2019 I organized a group to speak with @westcherbol about preparing for #climatebreakdown. The BOL allows 10 people, 3 minutes each to share what’s on their mind. Here’s how @catherineNY16 responded. (1 of 11)
We started with 2 people and eventually grew to 8 concerned citizens. There were no controls in terms of topics or “asks”. It was a grassroots way to publicly tell the BOL about citizen concerns. (2 of 11)
My personal ask was for more community networking and connections throughout the #Westchester County. To read the IPCC report together with a certified climate grief counselor. (3 of 11)

Today, I’m endorsing two more House Democrats who dream big and fight hard for working people every day:
I’m proud to endorse @IlhanMN for re-election in #MN05 because she’s a champion for the working class, a strong fighter for climate action, a fierce advocate for abortion rights, and one of the leading voices in Congress for canceling student debt.

.@JamaalBowmanNY isn’t afraid to challenge the system and fight for real, structural change—from delivering climate action and preventing gun violence to defending abortion rights. I’m glad to endorse him for re-election in #NY16. A photo of Jamaal Bowman next to text that says Elizabeth Wa

Mondaire Jones has a difficult choice right now, and I don't envy him. DCCC chair Sean Patrick Maloney selfishly put Jones in a bad spot by immediately saying he'd run for #NY17 instead of #NY18 as soon as NY's new draft map came out. Now Jones must decide between #NY17 & #NY16
Assuming the map is finalized as-is, Jones would represent 3x as much of #NY17 as Maloney. He's also vastly more progressive than SPM, one of the most centrist Dems in the House. Jones even had more cash on hand than Maloney as of 3/31! $2.9 mil vs. $2.1 dailykos.com/stories/2022/4…
Of course, Maloney has access to lots of $, so Jones would be taking on a huge fight. But Maloney didn't fare well the last time he ran in a primary against more progressive foes: He took just 25% and finished third in the primary for AG in 2018 ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.htm…

BREAKING: national Dems are using a "communities of interest" argument to urge their Albany counterparts to adopt an aggressive 23D-3R gerrymander that could wipe out five of NY's eight GOP seats. nyirc.gov/storage/commen… Image
Highlights of the 23D-3R plan recommended by commenter "Sean Patrick:"

- Staten Island #NY11 drawn in w/ Lower Manhattan
- New maj-min #NY02 on Long Island
- #NY27 Jacobs (R) merged w/ #NY23 Reed (R)
- #NY22 Tenney (R) put in a D-leaning seat
- #NY03 crosses Long Island Sound
More highlights of the Maloney plan submitted via public comment to NY's redistricting site:

- #NY16 Bowman (D) goes from Bronx to rural Dutchess
- #NY17 Jones (D) goes to the Catskills
- #NY19 Delgado (D) goes to Ithaca/Binghamton
- #NY25 Morelle (D) picks up Buffalo suburbs Image

New York is poised to lose a seat. But if Dems end up drawing the map, it could be their biggest weapon of the redistricting cycle.

They could merge Stefanik/Tenney (if Tenney's lead holds in #NY22) and severely threaten other Rs, converting a 19D-8R map into 23D-3R (below).
Upstate: under the scenario (above) I've heard floated...

1. #NY27 Jacobs (R) would be axed
2. A safe new Syracuse/Utica #NY22 for Anthony Brindisi (D)
3. A new Ithaca/Kingston district, #NY12, for state Sen. Michelle Hinchey (D)
4. All current Dem incumbents get Biden +10 seats
One other feature of this play for Upstate: Dems would put Rep. John Katko (R)'s home in Camillus in a Syracuse-less #NY24 (purple), but keep it winnable for themselves in case Katko retires/loses a primary.

I spent the last 4 days w @JamaalBowmanNY riding around #NY16 on a big yellow school bus (w dope playlists).

Today it's clear that Jamaal won. We took down the candidate backed by HRC + Cuomo + Pelosi + corporate million$$$.

But the bus tour showed me something else.
Jamaal spending endless time talking to young black men who say all politicians are liars & that the country is unfixable. Most weren't registered Dems and so couldn't vote for him - one even a paid Engel canvasser.

Jamaal: "That used to be me."
Two little black girls coming up shyly and asking to have their picture taken with this "celebrity".

Crowds of wealthy white suburbanites giving Jamaal standing ovations.

Bus drivers inexplicably recognizing him from behind and slowing down to honk their support.

I’ve seen enough: Jamaal Bowman (D) has defeated 16-term Rep. Eliot Engel (D) in the #NY16 primary.
The updated #NY16 official counts (not yet reflected on NYT/other sites):

Bowman 27,174 (61.7%)
Engel 15,372 (34.9%)

In my judgment, this Bowman lead is too large for Engel to overcome in the absentees.
I should clarify, these are not official, final results. These are results from official sources (NYC/Westchester BOEs). Still tens of thousands of absentees to count and possible margin will narrow, even if the outcome is not in doubt.

Hoy son las elecciones primarias en el estado de New York, con un ingrediente particular en la interna demócrata:
El ala progresista de izquierda del partido choca con el ala conservadora-moderada en varios distritos.
Acá un hilo con las batallas mas interesantes de la noche. Image
Si bien a nivel nacional hay acuerdo tácito entre ambos bandos para ir en unidad y derrotar a Trump, la "grieta" interna del partido se medirá en busca de bancas en la Cámara de Representantes en 4 distritos. Son estos: Image
Distrito 14
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC ) es una referente de la centroizquierda a nivel nacional. La joven latina desbancó a Crowley en 2018 y va por su primera reelección. Su desafiante es la derechista Michelle Caruso-Cabrera (@MCaruso_Cabrera), una famosa conductora de TV ImageImage

NEW: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has endorsed the challenger to Rep. Eliot Engel, Jamaal Bowman

This was already a top targeted Democratic incumbent in a primary.
So far this week:

Mon: Another Engel challenger drops out and endorses Bowman
Tues: Engel's "If I Didn’t Have a Primary, I Wouldn’t Care"
Wed: AOC backs Bowman

#NY16
Also today, Justice Democrats and the Working Families Party launched a $500k independent expenditure for Bowman.

And Bowman raised more than $100k off the Engel comment yesterday.

‼️PROGRESSIVES‼️

We must remember down-ballot candidates.

This is a list of progressive/leftist congressional candidates endorsed by at least one of these groups:

@BrandNew535
@BoldProgressive
@justicedems
@pdamerica
@RoseCaucus

#UniteLeft
#Progress2020
Please remember:

⚠️STATE CANDIDATE PRIMARIES MAY BE ON DIFFERENT DATES THAN THE PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY⚠️

Double check your registration at least 1 MONTH 🗓 before any election you plant to vote in.

Also, endorsements are an ongoing process
Some races have 2 different candidates endorsed by different groups, so they’re both listed.

Legend:

💵➡️ donation link

If the pinned tweet is related to their campaign, I included it.

Now, onto the (long) list.
