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.

Brooklyn, the Burrough with the most Jewish people living there, is currently breaking 49-32 to Mamdani over Cuomo so I'm going to venture a guess and say that some Jews likely voted for him and like him! Lander is Jewish and he cross endorsed Mamdani!

Wake up Democratic Party old guard establishment. This isn’t about New York City. This is the way the wind is blowing. Step aside for young people who this country will need over the next several decades long after you are gone. Enough with your egos and the big money interests.

This chart tells you everything you need to know about the NYC mayoral race. Everyday New Yorkers vs money.

In 2021, progressives in NYC failed to come together and the result was four years of a disastrous, corrupt Adams administration. In 2025, Lander and Mamdani formed a united front, and the result is that they beat Andrew Cuomo. Give this man his flowers, he put the city above his ego.

If you're a member of the Democratic gerontocracy, the chances of you catching a primary challenger just went up 1000%.

Brad Lander: "I also need to thank some of the most important people in my life and on this campaign—I mean, of course, the NYT editorial board. Just kidding, of course: I love Wordle and Connections, but I really urge the Times to cancel their new feature 'Editorial Riddles.' No one likes those."

We've already seen the initial story evolve. That will continue. This is what the sequence of headlines will be.

Also wrestling tradition is to “go out on your back” - lose to up & coming wrestlers in your final match Meanwhile Dems NEVER pass the torch, refusing to boost the next generation even when they’re in their 80s and/or literally dying

When your neighborhood gardener faces the prospect of being sent to a Taliban torture chamber in Afghanistan, sold into slavery in Libya or murdered by a gang in Honduras, the moral thing to do is to hide them

Yeah, I read the Volokh piece. So let me be as clear as possible: If you would give that paper a passing grade, you should not be teaching law students.

Imagine if all the Democratic Party fossils who are pulling out all of the stops to prevent a leftist from becoming mayor of NYC summoned even half of that effort to stop a fascist from becoming president of the United States

To be really clear: The reason members of Congress can't just walk right in is because of the guns. Armed DHS personnel won't allow entry. In other words, DHS is using armed force to *break* laws. Democrats need to wrap their minds around that. Accept that the frog is boiled.
