The AI oligarchs are pouring money into races all across the country, including this one, and there's a reason: I know how the technology works and how to regulate them, and when I'm in Congress I'll hold them accountable.

We can either let big AI companies and their CEOs control this technology, or we can take the power back into our hands. That’s why I’m announcing my 6-part plan to make AI work for people, not oligarchs. Check it out at the link in bio.
This June we can fight back against Trump’s budget cuts. The Overpaid CEO Act would bring $200 million back to the city by adding a small surcharge on large corporations whose CEOs make more than 100 times the median wages of their employees.
The same people funding the campaign against the wealth tax are funding a super PAC backing my opponent, Scott Wiener. I'm sure it's just a coincidence that Scott Wiener came out against the wealth tax this week.
According to recent reports, an AIPAC front group is spending big in our race to try to keep me out of the general election. That’s because they know I have the best chance of beating Scott Wiener, their preferred candidate, and I am the biggest threat to AIPAC’s power in DC.
Sat down with @mattxiv.bsky.social to discuss AIPAC, AI and the crypto lobby, and why they're doing everything they can to hide their donations. They are all are toxic and we need to get rid of their influence in our government completely. In Congress, that's exactly what I'll do.
I'll be at Harrington’s Bar and Grill this Thursday at 6pm for a meet and greet. Come through to chat, I'd love to hear from you about what you hope to see in your next Congressperson. RSVP with the link in thread
In just a few months, we've closed the gap from 21 points to 5 points in the polls. We can end political corruption. We can control AI so it works for humanity, not the oligarchs. We can have Medicare-for-all and lower the cost of living.
You can catch me all around the city this week. If we haven't met yet, feel free to stop by one of our many events and let's chat about the issues that matter to you. We've also added on a drag trivia night at Moby Dick this Thursday at 7pm.
The same tech VCs and crypto billionaires supporting my opponent, Scott Wiener, are also supporting a pro-Iran War primary challenger against Ro Khanna. That's because the tech industry has become one of the biggest profiteers from America's endless wars.
Catch us at the doors all weekend long and join us on Election Day to help get out the vote.

Elissa Slotkin: "Trump has conducted military operations in 9 places in 15 months. That's more than any President in history. He's shown that he is willing to use force. You can have a debate on if that's a good thing or a bad thing."

🗳️ Texas showed up. Turnout was strong this primary — proof that participation shapes elections. Some races head to a May 26 runoff. In Texas, if no one clears 50%, the top two advance. Runoffs are often decided by far fewer voters. Democracy continues. #TXVotes

Weil es keine Neiddebatte ist, sondern eine um Ungerechtigkeit und Egoismus. Der #Kapitalfaschismus ist das Problem, der für Ablenkung sorgt und die Menschen zum nach unten treten animiert, statt nach oben zu schauen. Und sogar Bürgergeldbezieher können noch auf Flüchtlinge schimpfen. Alles gewollt.
