Can’t believe that the guy who ran for president on a racist lie is tweeting out conspiracy theories, and racist pictures of the Obamas. He’s told us who he is again and again for the last decade.

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."

I love that they think it was a single thing that happened 400 years ago.

Everything Trump did with Epstein happened well before he was president

Which means he doesn’t receive immunity, and can potentially be prosecuted for any criminal offense he committed
Ro Khanna: “He absolutely is going to have to testify, & that's why he doesn't want Clinton to testify — you can bet that when we have Chairman Garcia, he's going to call Donald Trump to testify, as he should — he does have answers, that he needs to answer for in terms of what happened with Epstein”
