The Western Kentucky University/Middle Tennessee State University alum going after a naturalized citizen who moved to the USA at 7 years-old with his Ugandan academic father and Indian filmmaker mother - Mamdani graduated from the Bronx School of Science* and Bowdoin College.

If one doesn’t know, the Bronx School of Science is an ELITE high school in NYC. Nine Nobel laureates, 3 Turing Award winners, 6 National Science Medal winners, and 9 Pulitzers. It’s a place smart people, incredibly smart people, go and think, “Damn, these people are SMART!”

Terrible move. Defeat his budget busting, dangerous policies at the ballot box.

This letter made me research 8 USC 1424, which apparently prohibits naturalization of any member of the US communist party. I would have thought most of those anti-communist laws would have been repealed or thrown out by courts, but that one is apparently still on the books. It was passed in 1952, apparently to overturn a 1943 supreme court case that held being a communist did not mean that you opposed the US constitution.

Leave it to today's MAGA to bring back McCarthyism.
 
Mamdani might as well be a new Fox News host. Dude is on there so much he should be getting paid. It’s the only thing the channel talks about.

Gift that keeps on giving….all summer and fall. He’s basically an Islamist Marxist. Cuomo announcing he’ll run pretty much guarantees his election.

I can’t wait until his policies become better known to the national audience. Woo hoo

I understand he will be public enemy #1 but if the “national audience” is moved by him then they are pretty stupid. NYC does not speak for the national audience.

Why would a national audience care about the policies of a candidate for mayor of NYC? I certainly don't know or care about mayoral candidates outside of my own general area.

AOC supports him. Clinton, Schumer and Hochul will be forced to endorse him by the left wing base. It’s the US’s largest city - the second most important job in the US.

His proposals and proclamations will be fully examined and published like Gov run grocery stores LOL.
 
So the NYT had a very detailed, precinct-by-precinct breakdown of the mayoral primary. It was not the race that Paine described. The Mamdani coalition was: Asians + "the commie corridor" in West Brooklyn (i.e. committed progressives) + the Upper West Side (which isn't looking for free buses or rent relief). Low income voters went more for Cuomo.

In other words, the exact same groupings we've been seeing for some time now.

Three have name recognition and deserve plaudits for the roles they have played as public servants. Texas should feel proud to have any of those three men as a senator. For my money, in this political hellscape, I’ll take the 36yo Opie looking, highly educated, deeply religious, ordained minister, son of a Southern Baptist preacher, with biblical Jesus progressive beliefs, and a multi-viral social media presence.

Beto has been beaten multiple times, and has been around a long time. Castro, different, but similar. Allred has a good profile, but what about this environment suggests he’ll overcome the 8.6% he lost by last time? That’s not exactly a squeaker.

Yeah, bring on the new blood. Unfortunately, all the techies are leaving Austin and moving back to California. The Californians that are remaining in Texas are the ones that think Ken Paxton would be a good senator.

Do you have actual data backing this up?

I get the concern, but this article feels a little over the top. It’s written more to scare people not on TikTok than to actually explain what’s happening. Yeah, right-wing creators know how to game the algorithm, and that’s a problem, but it’s not like every Gen Z kid is getting sucked into extremism just by opening the app. Most of it depends on what you engage with. The bigger issue is that the left still hasn’t figured out how to meet people where they are with content that actually hits.

Curious...do you mean The Left or Democrats?
