The only way I can understand the ridiculous criticism of Zohran Mamdani for calling his mom's cousin his aunt is if this is a secret plot to say something so idiotic that it mobilizes the vote in SUPPORT of Zohran.

Two apologies from Van Jones.
For his first apology, he turned public replies off after being flooded with criticism. Then he posted a second apology with no public replies allowed.
In both, he avoids naming who is killing the babies of Gaza that he joked about -- Israel.
