You have to understand that NY Republicans like Elise Stefanik and Mike Lawler planned to base their ENTIRE CAMPAIGNS around Mamdani.
They viewed it as their only hope of winning in a blue state/year.
And Trump just pulled the rug out from under them.
Look no further than Stefanik’s response:

Yggy and all the Nates are like "accounts like pitchbot were wrong to make fun of the Times were obsessing about Biden's age" and they'd be right if the Times had put as much emphasis on Trump's. But the Times didn't.
So I am right and they are wrong.

Breaking character: I am open to the idea the media's coverage of Biden's age and mental acuity was fair or perhaps not even tough enough. But the fact that it was so much tougher than the coverage of Trump's (more severe) mental decline is damning and I can't see how anyone could argue otherwise.
NYT isn’t worth reading because they are in the bag for Trump

A member of Congress just filled out a threat report with the Capitol Police naming the President of the United States as the person making the threat.
Think of where we were on January 7, 2021 when the country overwhelmingly repudiated what had happened.
And think of where we are now.

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

Here, listen: when the President calls a female journalist “piggy” in a scrum, maybe you planned on asking about the economy, or whatever… But the story is now “the President called a female journalist piggy.” You asking a follow-up isn’t just defending her, it’s following the story.

The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

it just seems plainly clear to me that if you serve the country in any capacity, civil or military, and you are not a conservative white man, the Trump administration wants to make the workplace as hostile an environment as possible so you remove yourself

Mark Kelly's wife narrowly survived an assassination attempt, so it is some measure of Kelly's courage, and Trump's absolute lack of empathy, that he would call for Kelly and other Senators to be killed.
Gotta lean heavily into this, which i think they will. Trumps weak and getting weaker. He’s supporting criminal conduct. Time is against him. rollcall.com/2025/11/20/d...

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

It is unfair to say that RFK Jr is massively ignorant and prone to spouting conspiracy theories about vaccines: he can do the same for safety net programs too. He has layers.
Secretary Kennedy, speaking to a bipartisan group of governors, has mixed up Medicare and Medicaid, and implied the people who will lose the latter are either unauthorized immigrants, dual eligible, or people who “don’t want to get a job.”
