This is disturbing. It's one thing to fine someone or penalize them for donating to a group whose activities may support violence. But it's entirely different to censor the work of an artist, let alone one whose written work doesn't even mention the issues of concern.

This country is fighting with a volunteer army to repel a foreign invasion and they still organize protests to defend the institutions that protect democracy inside their borders. This is as badass as it gets.

Mamdani's election has national significance. Mainstream Dems and Republicans—including MTG and the President—are suddenly emphasizing his major talking point of affordability.
That *any* of them needed a wake-up call to address rising prices and obvious economic hardship is remarkable.
