The only newsworthy items from the NYT hit on Mamdani are:
1. NYT reporters are apparently chummy with white nationalists who spout eugenics
2. NYT editors apparently believe their peers are trolls like Chris Rufo
3. NYT "standards" for using hacked materials are not actually followed

The Right really is in disarray because they cannot seem to figure out if they should push “Zohran Mamdani is going to bring Sharia Law” or “Zohran Mamdani treats his wife with too much equality” as a smear campaign, so they are doing both.

The guy who ran on “law and order” just fired more attorneys who prosecuted people for assaulting police officers.
This administration doesn’t give a damn about the law or law enforcement. It’s all politics. What a dangerous farce.

Not only are ICE bounty hunters, who look more like criminals than law enforcement, abducting people from workplaces & off the street—we’re now seeing they’re being held in private detention centers w/some of the most deplorable conditions imaginable.

As big as the Mamdani win is, Landers ascent is in some ways even more significant for the national Democratic Party.
Most Dem electeds know that they don't have what Zohran has. But most can at least imagine themselves as a Lander.

Matt Walsh told Joe Rogan it was millions. In reality the numbers are miniscule, and parents are involved.
But this is what Republicans want you focused on — as they cut taxes for the rich, health care and food for the poor, and privatize everything for their donors.
