I just saw a meme referencing Mamdani's victory accompanied by "American Pie" by Don McLean. Each panel in the clip highlighted Mamdani's Islamic heritage, but not his policies. WTF?

Such hateful rhetoric from White Christian Nationalists

Chicago residents say kids tear-gassed due to nearby immigration enforcement A Chicago mother tells NBC News she and her 2-year-old were hit with a chemical agent. Many residents say the city wasnโ€™t a โ€œwar zoneโ€โ€” until immigration agents swept through.

Heartbreaking: Under Trump's ICE terror, a 2-year-old Chicago girl was tear-gassed while walking with her mom-burning eyes, screams of
'Ouch! Mommy!' This isn't enforcement; it's state-sponsored child abuse.

The backlash to Mamdani's election will be as fierce and organized and relentless as the backlash was to Obama's election.

I hope it's not as successful

Schumer ultimately rejects Mamdani endorsement Congress' top New York Democrat refused to say whom he voted for in Tuesday's mayoral election.

They tell us to "vote blue no matter who" but then refuse to do it themselves.

Fuck Schumer - he has to go
