Backing Israel was considered mandatory for New York politicians. Then came Zohran Mamdani
If Zohran Mamdani wins New York City’s mayor’s race next month, he would become the city’s first Muslim mayor and its youngest in a century.

“Mamdani changed how candidates and donors think about what is politically possible,” Feld said. “We’ve seen that siding with Palestine over Israel doesn’t make you radioactive. It shows voters that you’ll stick to your principles.”

NEW: Republicans are targeting the census -- again.
This time, they're going after a little-known algorithmic process called “differential privacy” that helps keep census data anonymous. This would impact a number of vulnerable people, immigrants included.

“Some of the candidate polling lately misconstrues AIPAC for the core issue, when it’s really the continued support for arming Israel that has alienated so many Democratic voters,” Feld told @mondoweiss.net
AIPAC has become so politically toxic that even centrist Democrats are abandoning the group
As support for Israel plummets among U.S. voters, Democrats are distancing themselves from AIPAC, and the Israel lobby group is on the defensive.

Leading global experts just confirmed what we’ve long known: Gaza is in famine. At least half a million Palestinians are facing starvation, acute malnutrition and death. And it’s likely to spread.

Unions are how working people can build a dignified life. But in a city as expensive as ours, they need local government on their side.
