The New York Times quickly sending out Douthat to argue that Mamdani’s victory doesn’t really matter is so predictable it borders on self-parody.
Remember, folks: Every time the Right wins an election, it’s an undeniable expression of the will of the people. If a lefty wins, it’s just a blip.

The indictment of James Comey has no place in a democracy. But that doesn't matter—because the United States is a republic.

This must be what it felt like to live during the McCarthy period, yeah, in which conservatives wielded explicitly naked double standards to target their foes while the flagrant hypocrisy was generally swept under the rug by those institutions that could call it out?
When I worked at UT, the campus hosted Nazi speakers (twice, I think), and a professor called for cars to "run down" protestors.
He wasn't disciplined.

Gutfeld: “We need to learn from the blacks. The way they were able to remove the power from the n-word word by using it. So from now on it’s: What up, my Nazi? Hey, what up, my Nazi? Hey, what's hanging, my Nazi?”
Kennedy: “Nazi, please!”

We live in a nation where I am now sending out alerts about what the U.S. attorney general is doing in our name.
It’s a lot to sit with.
It’s going to get a lot darker before it starts getting lighter, but I will keep doing what I do. And, it will get lighter again.

ALERT: Attorney General Pam Bondi is apparently threatening some of those providing medical care to their minor transgender patients.
If you receive one of these subpoenas, please reach out, have your lawyer do so, or send me a copy. My email is in bio, as is my Signal.
