I like how Zohran Mamdani scandals are like "He called his old cousin his aunt one time" and Andrew Cuomo scandals are like "He sexually assaulted 13 women."

I’ve been thinking a lot about a new kind of polling I’d like to see. We have polling that measures public opinion, which is obviously important, but I’d love to see a little more empirical work on public knowledge: what do voters know about politics and policy?

Wow I guess that plays with the Fox Business audience. It's a shame that that sells with so many people.

So here's Andrew Cuomo reacting to Maria Bartiromo wondering if Mamdani will "change the look of New York" and have Muslim women "completely covered up," telling her that Mamdani "doesn't understand New York culture" because he has "dual citizenship" and "he's a citizen of Uganda."

Still awaiting my George $oros payment for showing up at #NoKINGS_Day & staying until noon.

Somebody slipped this 20 under my door, but something about it seems fake.

HUNT: The president is talking about a third term. How seriously do you take that?

GALLEGO: I don't take it seriously because he will be in violation of the Constitution and he should be arrested if he attempts to do that

He did steal the actual FIFA Soccer trophy and had the audacity to present the fake one at the final match. So I think everyone is done giving anything but replicas to this guy because he will bogart your sh*t.

What exactly happened to the artwork in the East Wing BTW?

I'm a little worried if things go south for Mamdani. I understand there are other elections around the country etc but that would be dispiriting on a national level. Many see New York as a bellwether.

If I recall correctly, the new revised law had protections for undocumented domestic workers, extension of tribal law enforcement authority to outside the reservation in sexual assault and rape cases and trans protections.

A mother of 8 was deported within 24 hours of reporting sexual harassment by an ICE contracto

She was following the rules & going through the process to get her green card

Someone working on behalf of ICE abused her.

She spoke out and was kicked out of the country.

It’s retaliation & it’s wrong
