The Incoherence of Blaming Mamdani for anti-Jewish Violence
He’s the one who keeps saying that Jews and Israel aren’t the same. It’s his pro-Israel critics who lump them together.

Today marks 250 years since a small group of newspaper editors, farmers, and soldiers signed a document declaring our nation's independence — a truth that feels self-evident now but was revolutionary then.
What a privilege us Americans have, to live in a nation that every one of its inhabitants can shape. What an honor us New Yorkers have, to look out over our city's waters from the shores where so many Americans bravely entered their country for the first time.
Today and all days, let us remember that patriotism is not pretending our nation is without flaws. Patriotism is every act of righteous dissent — because loving our country means fighting for the best version of it.
Happy Fourth of July, New York City.

After the U.S. Supreme Court’s mail ballot ruling Monday, anti-voting lawyer Cleta Mitchell believes there’s now a legal avenue to kill early voting — and she doesn’t want to wait to sue. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Cleta Mitchell says Supreme Court’s mail ballot ruling opens door to kill early voting: ‘Let's file some cases’
Mitchell’s attack on early voting offers a stark reminder of the right’s remarkable zeal to abolish almost any form of voting that expands access.
