Ah, so Bill Ackman spends millions to smear Mamdani with Islamophobic propaganda and then the next month sits down to dinner with Mohammed bin Salman who actually leads a country with Shariah law?
And orchestrates murders, according to Trump’s CIA?

74% of Texas voters voted to amend the state Constitution to prohibit "persons who are not citizens of the United States" from voting in Texas elections. US citizenship is already required to register to vote in Texas. 🤡

For the record, Ackman, Bloomberg and many other New York billionaires could have spent their $40 million feeding people or helping house people, but they chose to spend it attacking the first Muslim mayor-elect of New York City. And these are the men we’re supposed to look at as wise investors?

Now seems like a good time to suggest that Republicans take a moment to stop and reflect and think about the lessons they can take from this election. How can they become more moderate and bipartisan? Less extreme? Now that voters have so clearly rejected them across the board.
