The elite panic over Zorhan Mamdani's win is not about his strong-but-hardly-radical agenda.
The intensity of elites' freakout signals their bigger fear: for the first time, they couldnt buy an election, which makes them fear they may be losing power.

Protect Our Care on Bluesky: “BREAKING: New CBO score reveals GOP Senate bill slashes $930 BILLION from Medicaid - the largest cut in history. That means 10M+ could lose coverage. Earlier GOP plan: $700B New plan: $930B This is a full-scale attack on America's most vulnerable. #KillTheBill”
Over 10 million Americans would lose their healthcare under Trump’s Tax Scam — and that doesn’t include the millions more who would lose their coverage because of GOP cuts to the Affordable Care Act.

Burgess Everett on Bluesky: “Democrats will force a reading of the entire reconciliation bill "Schumer believes Americans deserve to hear exactly what's in this monstrosity"”
We love to see Senate Democrats doing everything in their power to delay and disrupt the vote on Trump’s Tax Scam. Thank you to Minority Leader @schumer.senate.gov and all of you who urged your Democratic senators to make this vote as painful as possible for the GOP.

Senator Welch on Bluesky: “When I met with Mohsen Mahdawi today, we spoke about how appreciative he is to have the support of so many people in Vermont. He said one of the reasons he wanted to become a citizen was because of his belief in American democracy. He hopes that justice will prevail in his case.”
Over the last two months, ICE has ramped up detentions of international students, visa holders, and green card residents — not because they’ve committed any crimes, but because of their First Amendment-protected speech.
This is an attack on dissent. Period.
Please pass this on 💙💙💙

The IRS giving ICE access to migrant workers’ tax data isn’t 'efficiency.'
It’s state-sanctioned violence against people who keep the economy running.

The image is a screenshot of a tweet from Pop Crave (@PopCrave ). The tweet reads: "Costco sees a gain in foot traffic for a 13th consecutive week after sticking with its DEL initiatives." Below the text, there is an image of the Costco Wholesale logo, which features the word "COSTCO" in red and "WHOLESALE" in white with blue lines above it, all on a blue background. The Pop Crave logo, consisting of a yellow and orange circle with the text "POP CRAVE," is displayed at the top left of the tweet.
