You might be surprised to hear me say this, but I think Zohran Mamdani is the future of the Democratic Party. Just not for the reasons you probably think. He has a sharp strategic mind and the credibility to say uncomfortable truths to his own people and be heard rather than exiled.

A couple days ago, Mike Johnson mocked Thomas Massie for suggesting House leadership could keep Congress out to avoid the new Epstein Files Transparency Act, calling the idea “stupid” and “nonsensical.” Now he has canceled the final two weeks of September.

The repubs I've met on the protest line say that the reason they dont vote Democrat is because of abortion. Morally..they say, its wrong. Yet morally they have no trouble voting for a rapist? Yet morally they have no problem voting for a liar? Yet morally they have no issues voting for a pedophile?

Zohran Mamdani and AOC aren’t the main reasons democratic socialists are getting elected. Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Donald Trump and Mike Johnson are the main reasons democratic socialists are getting elected. Eventually, people start to realize who’s keeping them poor.

China has developed a battery that is based on sea salt. Not lithium. It is now being used in Chinese vehicles. It’s more efficient, can hold 90% of its charge at -40c, provides a range of 500 kms, cheap to manufacture, and better for the environment. The US is being left in the dust.

When we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.
