In a nutshell, why the Democrats lost nationally in 2024 but Zohran Mamdani won in NYC this week:

POTUS Joe Biden upon hearing that the ICC indicted Vladimir Putin for war crimes (BBC, 18 Mar 2023): "He's clearly committed war crimes."

POTUS Joe Biden upon hearing that the ICC indicted Benjamin Netanyahu for war crimes (BBC, 22 Nov 2024): "That's outrageous!"

And after all the tremendous financial and military support Biden continued to send to Bibi during the Nakba at cost of the progressive antiwar bloc, the nefarious Netanyahu visited the ex-POTUS in nearby Delaware each time he flew to Washington DC this year, right?

Democratic Presidential candidate "Kamala Harris will not support an arms embargo on Israel, her national security adviser says, a day after she was heckled by pro-Palestinian protesters at a rally in Detroit.

In a post on Twitter/X, Biden administration official Phil Gordon said Ms. Harris "has been clear: she will always ensure Israel is able to defend itself against Iran and Iran-backed terrorist groups".

Why should we "wait and see how Mayor-elect Mamdani performs and acts going forward?"

Q: Why should Zohran Mamdani be scrutinized any more or less than any other elected official? And how should this mild-mannered man "act?"

A: Because he is Muslim, nothing more, nothing less and a thorn in the side of AIPAC. Zohran's platform is no more incendiary or dangerous than Bernie Sander's or Lawrence O'Donnell on MSNBC who calls himself a "European Socialist." Lawrence O'Donnell worked for Democratic Party luminaries his whole career.

Endnote: Like the late author E.L. Doctorow, former Congressman Alan Grayson, and myself, Zohran Mamdani graduated the Bronx HS of Science.

You live in Connecticut, Lamplighter, and sniping at Zohran Mamdani on drudge.com because he is Muslim, PERIOD.

And you watch too much TV.

So, let's all see and judge how you "act" on drudge.com, "Mr. I Live in Upscale Connecticut" before some of us *Killfile* you for wasting our time with your nuanced Islamophobia.

And by all means, *Killfile* me any time you like. Please.

One more time before *Killfile*

Performs and acts? Who are you in Connecticut to judge how New Yorker Zohran Mamdani "performs and acts?"

He is the elected Mayor of NYC, not a circus seal "performing and acting" for your amusement or critique.

You also wrote "Is Mayor-elect Mamdani a Swamp Thing?"

What are you trying to imply there?

You also admitted:

"And, yeah, as I have stated many times before, I am in the NYC media area.
As a result, for example, my cable provider (Comcast) provides me with the NYC TV stations in HD, but my local Connecticut stations are only SD. OK, that aside, I do see a lot of the local NYC news (more than I prefer)."

YOU WATCH TOO MUCH TV.

Get a grip?

Got one thanks. You've been accused of being an Islamophobe. Deal with it. Don't like what I have to write? Don't read my OPs or comments and *Killfile* me.

See how easy that is?
