His enemies spend a lot of time attacking that Mamdani’s a “social democrat.”
What makes him special, I think, is that he’s an authentically moral person with empathy.
That’s sadly rare in politics these days.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

Like his Confederate forebears, Ted Cruz talked a big game, started a fight, got absolutely dog walked, then cried about how unfair it all was. A story in four images.

This is NOT unprecedented.
On this day in 1917, Congress passed the Immigration Act to block “undesirable” immigrants. A ban on Asian, Mexican, & Mediterranean migrants. Meanwhile white migrants were given land via the Homestead Act.
Trump wants to revive this fascism. Do not let him.

This is all one big mockery of faith.
Trump at National Prayer Breakfast: "They rigged the second election. I had to win it. I needed it for my own ego. I would've had a bad ego for the rest of my life. Now I really have a big ego. Beating these lunatics was incredible ... The first time they said I didn't win the popular vote. I did"

Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?
HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down
