Opinion | Mamdaniโs Victory Is Less Significant Than You Think
The New York Times quickly sending out Douthat to argue that Mamdaniโs victory doesnโt really matter is so predictable it borders on self-parody.
Remember, folks: Every time the Right wins an election, itโs an undeniable expression of the will of the people. If a lefty wins, itโs just a blip.

I listened to several younger Democrats running for office in Iowa last weekend, and Iโm telling you, Iowa and other states in the heartland have had enough.
2026 is going to be hard on Republicans, which is why they are going to try to limit voting. Pay attention.

Dear National Democrats,
You see how progressive politics can win in the cities. Now come back to rural America and help us take over the country.

Brand new data:
Republicans blamed for the shutdown (+12) and for health care premiums going up (+28!!).
These are stunning numbers. Republicans aren't immune from the pressure this creates.
Time to press our advantage. Stand for what we believe in.

A SSRS/CNN poll showing 61% people think Trump has gone too far using the power of the presidency and 57% think he's gone too far deporting immigrants.
People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

Glad that I donโt subscribe to Teen Vogue since the news that you fired your political journalists.
Howโs that ring-kissing & knee-bending going to work out for you when this fascist regime is over?
Maybe you should read up on what happened to Nazi-collaborating media in France after WWII?

Some context to the viral videos:
Around 9am Friday, ICE/CBP *encircled* several square miles of a safe suburb and *stormed* it using multiple units.
They were in cars, on foot in alleys & gangways, and in helicopters. They demanded papers, threatened residents, pointed guns, kidnapped people.

The thing about Johnson not swearing in Grijalva is thatโs it a test for 2026.
If you think they will accept an outcome they donโt like, they will just Grijalva it.
So whatโs the plan when the GOP says โwe ainโt leaving, fuck you, make us.โ
Because that IS what they are going to say.

Letโs talk about ICE. This post is long, but itโs worth reading to understand how to protect your right to privacy.
It might sound extreme, but everyday Americans may soon want to consider face coverings for reasons far beyond health or fashion.
