Zohran Mamdani was the clear winner of the Mayoral debate. He was grace under fire, unflappable and he remains true to his beliefs & ideas - an affordable city for all of of us. I’m proud to call him my candidate and I’ll be proud to call him Mr. Mayor!

Andrew Cuomo acts tough on TV. But when Donald Trump came after our Attorney General, Cuomo couldn't even name him. That's cowardice.

Mamdani nails Cuomo on being backed by Bill Ackman, which alone should be enough to disqualify Cuomo with anybody Black. Ackman is the DEI-hating, hyper-Zionist Twitter troll billionaire who bullied Claudine Gay out of the Harvard presidency on some BS when his own wife was accused of plagiarism.

Goodness gracious - Mike Johnson is an absolute coward. This is so beyond pathetic. lmaooooo thehill.com/homenews/hou...

HIll screenshot:

"House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on Wednesday walked back his agreement to debate House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) on C-SPAN’s “Ceasefire” program.

Johnson originally told the network he’d “love” to debate Jeffries on air but later said the agreement was conditional. "

Federal resources aren’t campaign tools. Secretary Kristi Noem's new TSA video crosses the line, violating the Hatch Act with blatant political messaging.

We’re urging California airports to stand firm against this unlawful federal pressure and refrain from airing the video.

What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity.

And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

Imagine if KJP or Psaki had said this about the Republican base: not just that half of them were “deplorables” but that the GOP’s “main constituency is made up of domestic terrorists, white supremacists, and violent criminals”? The media, not just Fox, would be in meltdown. GOP would be screaming!
