Chuck Schumer handpicked you to run for the Senate, Gov. Mills. If you become become the oldest ever freshman senator next year will you vote for Schumer to lead the Dems there? Will you vote to continue funding Israel's ongoing genocide or for sending weapons to the IDF?

Schumer:

"I have many jobs as leader.. and one is to fight for aid to Israel - all the aid that Israel needs. I will continue to fight for it.

"We delivered more security assistance to Israel, our ally, under my leadership than ever, ever before. We will keep doing that."

fyi, this gentleman believes that if you rank Mamdani, you're not Jewish - which may come as a surprise to Brad Lander.

Steven Goldstein, over on the Nazi site, writes, "If you're not afraid of Zohran Mamdani, congratulations on your non-Jewish privilege."

It feels weird that I have to wonder if you've read the article when you apparently wrote it.

From the article: Mamdani instead repeated a line he’s been using that “Israel has a right to exist as a state with equal rights.” ["Israel has a right to exist" has been highlighted]

Not here to ratio you but this is the 3rd 70+ yo Dem to die w/ cancer in 2025. The THIRD SINCE MARCH! Obvs, the GOP carry the biggest blame but any Dem over 70 w/ serious health issues & who wouldn't be replaced by another Dem immediately shouldn't have run. The Dem gerontocrats need to retire.

Wikipedia table showing the three Democrat Representatives to have died since March: Gerry Connolly (75), Raul Grijalva (77), and Sylvester Turner (70).

Off topic but fyi, while I sincerely value your output at The Economist and don't blame you for this, if I see a racist eugenicist like this on your website again I will happily forego the subscription and your insights.

Stop lying, Ro Khanna, and work harder at representing your constituents rather than the tech bros like Musk with whom you're so cozy.

House Democrats try, and fail, to subpoena Musk

Notably missing the vote was Rep. Ro Khanna, who is close to Musk.

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee moved to subpoena tech billionaire and Trump ally Elon Musk at a hearing Wednesday - and one Democrat was conspicuously and missing from the vote, Rep. Ro Khanna of California, who represents Silicon Valley and has a longtime relationship with the billionaire.

The three Democrats familiar with the planning said Khanna's staff was properly notified about the vote ahead of time.

One senior Democratic aide said there was a member meeting Tuesday evening that Khanna missed to discuss the motions for a subpoena. Democrats also announced the motion to all staff and his staff was present on that call and that the top Democrat on Oversight, Gerry Connolly, told the Democratic Caucus about the plan this morning, two people said.

Ro Khanna is a liar. We'll never know what use it might have been because he wasn't there when GOP members were away and Committee Dems sought to take advantage. Then he lied about it:

@rokhanna.bsky.social is a liar and is bought and paid for by tech bros like Musk.

Tweet from Daniella Diaz @DaniellaMicaela:

"I see @RoKhanna is disputing this publicly.

I'm told there was a member meeting last night (Khanna missed) to discuss this, then Dems announced this to all staff (Khanna's staff were on), &then Oversight Ranker Connolly announced at Dem Caucus &his staff was directly told this am"

Embedded tweet from Daniella Diaz:

"•• Oversight Democrats just moved to subpoena Elon Musk.

The motion failed 19-20, with @RepRoKhanna notably abstaining from the vote."

Community Notes/Readers added context:

"Representative Khana has addressed that he did not abstain, he was not present as the vote was called without notice

Can't you just be grateful that Wray's resignation protected the FBI from politicization and disorder?

"I care deeply, deeply about the FBI, about our mission and in particular about our people. But the president-elect had made clear that he intended to make a change, and the law is that, that is something he is able to do for any reason or no reason at all," Wray said. "My conclusion was that the

thing that was best for the Bureau was to try to do this in an orderly way, to not thrust the FBI deeper into the fray."

Consider whether you are having a discourse with a good faith actor or merely a troll and a provocateur.
