We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law. A new generation that gives meaning to the “we” in “we the people.” Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as the future.

there are no deals, commitments are meaningless, but the ironclad principle of the new diplomacy is if you flatter him and make him look good he just might be nice to you. whoever you are. and if you give him an opportunity to look good, if he can take credit, he might do whatever you’d like done.

Something the Mamdani win demonstrates is the extent to which the reigning cadre of ancient, establishment, centrist Dems think it’s more important to be on good terms with their GOP colleagues than it is to represent their own voters, and how thoroughly sick of this literally everyone is.

The best part of the Mamdani win is that a bunch of octogenarian Democratic officials might finally be realizing that it's long past time they pass the torch.

Whenever I see Dems claim they are out of power, there’s nothing they can do, I think of Brad Lander and how he escorted people to court while being comptroller and running for mayor. Do something or get the f out of the way so there can be more Brad Landers.

All of these crusty Dems endorsing Cuomo, a corrupt, misogynistic bully credibly accused of sexual harassment by several women just reinforces the point that this party will spend ALL ITS TIME crushing progressives rather than holding the GOP accountable or saving our democracy.

Attacking Iran fits with Trump’s desire to divert attention from his failures at home: his losses in the courts, his unpopular budget bill, millions of people protesting against his authoritarianism. When he feels humiliated, he gets reckless. Understand what's going on.

This is not about the merits of Iran’s nuclear program. No president has the authority to bomb another country that does not pose an imminent threat to the US without the approval of Congress. This is an unambiguous impeachable offense.
