I just watched Mamdani on The Daily Show. Damn, he is so good! Take notes, Democrats. This is how you do it. As for policies, I’m not 100% sold on everything he proposed, but I’m interested in seeing how it works out. Hopefully he does win. I wish him much success.

Trump posts “Vladimir, STOP!” as Putin launches worst attack on Ukraine in months - NBC News

Trump must be the weakest president we’ve ever had.

Could we solve this mess by blocking FOX and OAN from Trump’s televisions? Without the technical wizardry of Barron to help, he would never figure out how to unblock the channels. Democracy saved!
