CUOMO lauds unity.
A unification against socialism by American Boomers, Democrats, MAGAists, Billionaires, Bigots, and Evangelicals. They're closing the gap on Mamdani.
Yet he's still ahead. So funny 😅

Iowa "sided with" Barack Obama twice. It also sided with a white supremacist representative (Steve King), who was then replaced by a pro-MAGA-tariff guy endorsed by another raging bigot, Ben Shapiro. Also: Sens. Ernst and Grassley.

Sad to watch Dem Party leaders squirm about a candidate their own members chose by a landslide. This neolib leadership is trying its hardest to preserve decades of wealth theft perpetuated by the affluent and adequately health-insured members of the investor/professional class they represent.
At event in DC, Sen. Chris Van Hollen keeps it going with Hakeem
Jeffries over not endorsing @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social: if you can’t back the kind of campaign he ran, “don’t ask those young people to show up for other Democrats across the country — that’s the message that will be sent.”

Great photo posted by someone on Reddit: A Korean deli is getting built on Steinway St., Queens, exposing a pre-war pork store sign. The image reflects the changing demographics of Western Queens: today with many more Asians and Hispanics. Archie Bunker's Astoria is long gone.
