From Sep 27 to Oct 7, Peter D'Abrosca at Fox News wrote six articles attacking the same UNC professor. He leads campaigns to manufacture outrage against university professors who have supported community organizing against fascists.
D'Abrosca is paid as a Fox News journalist.
Who is D'Abrosca?

Q: Trump wrote that SNAP benefits will only be given when Democrats reopen the government. As written, how would that not violate the court order?
LEAVITT: I've now answered this question several times. We are complying with the court's order

Q: Does the administration guarantee that all furloughed federal workers will get back pay?
LEAVITT: This is something we are very much open to discussing with Democrats as part of the discussions about the continuing resolution
(That's not a yes!)

This is the President openly announcing that he will violate court orders - two courts had concluded that the Trump regime withholding SNAP funding was illegal - and that the government had to pay out (at least reduced) SNAP benefits starting this week

From Bovino's deposition: (1) he calls protestors "violent" if they articulate views hostile to ICE, even if no violence is manifested; (2) he instructs his forces to attack and arrest protestors who express "hyperbolic comments," which is to say, criticism of ICE and Bovino.

Lori Chavez-DeRemer: "When we're talking about the SNAP program, one of the other programs we're definitely concerned about is Unemployment Insurance. That will be the next thing that we have to be concerned about."

Homan: "Others are in the country illegally but may not have a criminal history, but guess what? They're coming too. ICE is no longer turning a blind eye to illegal aliens in this country."

i want to repeat this: mamdani and spanberger have run similar campaigns tailored to their respective electorates and it is maddening to watch political journalists attempt to create some broad contrast where none exist
the other thing about this is that there is no reason to pit these candidates against each other? each are good fits for their respective electorates and each shows the value of vigorous campaigns focused on the stated material problems of voters.
