Axios tried to bust James Talarico for following adult content creators on Instagram and I'm genuinely impressed by his campaign's response

Today is the first day of the rest of the end of Andrew Cuomo's political career.
Some of the most acute and intense cowardice ever seen.
Just hours before polls are set to close, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer declined to reveal who he cast his vote for in the New York City mayoral election amid his continued rejection to endorse the Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani. bit.ly/49CEVpN

I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

it is still remarkable how long "deplorable" was seen as a horrid attack on a population of Americans, and yet, the myriad insults lobbed at any number of Americans since then is ignored, and not treated as a moment.

I don't think people outside of NYC fully see how incredibly RACIST Cuomo's campaign has been. It rivals any of the most racist campaigns of the 20th century. Just racism all the way down.
