On this episode of As The World Churns, Andy and Danielle break down Zoran Mamdani’s stunning mayoral primary win over Andrew Cuomo and the Islamophobic, billionaire-backed smear campaign that failed to stop him, then dig into the Supreme Court’s latest wave of deadly decisions, from denying rights to migrants and trans youth to opening the door for more political violence. Danielle speaks with Chris Melody Fields Figueredo of the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center about how grassroots organizers are preparing for a post-democracy future and why community power still matters. Then! Brandon Mancilla of UAW Region 9A joins to explain why his union broke with the political establishment to back Mamdani, and why labor is done waiting for crumbs.
