fyi, this gentleman believes that if you rank Mamdani, you're not Jewish - which may come as a surprise to Brad Lander.
Steven Goldstein, over on the Nazi site, writes, "If you're not afraid of Zohran Mamdani, congratulations on your non-Jewish privilege."

It feels weird that I have to wonder if you've read the article when you apparently wrote it.
From the article: Mamdani instead repeated a line he’s been using that “Israel has a right to exist as a state with equal rights.” ["Israel has a right to exist" has been highlighted]

Not here to ratio you but this is the 3rd 70+ yo Dem to die w/ cancer in 2025. The THIRD SINCE MARCH!

Obvs, the GOP carry the biggest blame but any Dem over 70 w/ serious health issues & who wouldn't be replaced by another Dem immediately shouldn't have run.

The Dem gerontocrats need to retire.
Wikipedia table showing the three Democrat Representatives to have died since March: Gerry Connolly (75), Raul Grijalva (77), and Sylvester Turner (70).

Off topic but fyi, while I sincerely value your output at The Economist and don't blame you for this, if I see a racist eugenicist like this on your website again I will happily forego the subscription and your insights.

Stop lying, Ro Khanna, and work harder at representing your constituents rather than the tech bros like Musk with whom you're so cozy.
House Democrats try, and fail, to subpoena Musk Notably missing the vote was Rep. Ro Khanna, who is close to Musk. DANIELLA DIAZ 02/05/2025, 7:42PM ET Democrats on the House Oversight Committee moved to subpoena tech billionaire and Trump ally Elon Musk at a hearing Wednesday - and one Democrat was conspicuously and missing from the vote, Rep. Ro Khanna of California, who represents Silicon Valley and has a longtime relationship with the billionaire. The three Democrats familiar with the planning said Khanna's staff was properly notified about the vote ahead of time. One senior Democratic aide said there was a member meeting Tuesday evening that Khanna missed to discuss the motions for a subpoena. Democrats also announced the motion to all staff and his staff was present on that call and that the top Democrat on Oversight, Gerry Connolly, told the Democratic Caucus about the plan this morning, two people said.

Ro Khanna is a liar.

We'll never know what use it might have been because he wasn't there when GOP members were away and Committee Dems sought to take advantage.

Then he lied about it:

@rokhanna.bsky.social is a liar and is bought and paid for by tech bros like Musk.

Can't you just be grateful that Wray's resignation protected the FBI from politicization and disorder?
"I care deeply, deeply about the FBI, about our mission and in particular about our people. But the president-elect had made clear that he intended to make a change, and the law is that, that is something he is able to do for any reason or no reason at all," Wray said. "My conclusion was that the thing that was best for the Bureau was to try to do this in an orderly way, to not thrust the FBI deeper into the fray."

Consider whether you are having a discourse with a good faith actor or merely a troll and a provocateur.

Yup. People should use this site's excellent tools to block trolls.

Tweet from Dean Phillips @deanbphillips: To all the progressives fleeing @X, how in the world will you understand how half our country feels if you only congregate with the like-minded? That's what got us into this mess in the first place. So stick around. Engage in some debate. Make your case. Learn different perspectives.
