An endorsement doesn't equal votes. When the polls close, we will decide a winner.
The Democratic Party is caught in a rock between a hard place.
Sen. John Fetterman (I-PA) has broken with the Democrats to vote on the Republican budget resolution that keeps the government open but eliminates subsidies from the Affordable Care Act.
Maine Gov. Janet Mills is now zeroing in on Graham Platner's tattoo controversy.
Rep. Adelita Grijalva (D-AZ) has hit the 30 day mark in not being sworn in.
Eric Adams, the outgoing independent mayor of New York City ran on Fox energy by claiming Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani will make New York City look like Europe.
Andrew Cuomo, the former governor of New York is consolidating the Republican vote along with the Democrats who refuse to back a democratic socialist who is a Muslim.
Mamdani addressed Cuomo, Adams, The New York Post, Fox, President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance and Bill Ackman in a press run. He slammed them for distractions and degrading him for his religion.
What started as a campaign on affordability and easing transportation woes in New York City became an issue about Israel. The junk food media quickly zeroed in on Mamdani's stances on the Israel-Gaza situation.
Mamandi openly opposes Israel and its driven "concern" for Gov. Kathy Hochul, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY), Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY), Rep. Laura Gillen (D-NY) and House Minority Leader, Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY).
Hochul finally endorsed Mamdani after weeks of not doing so.
Now Jeffries offers a lukewarm endorsement. It's official.
Jeffries, who represents parts of Brooklyn, said in a statement that while he and Mamdani had "areas of principled disagreement," he acknowledged the state assemblyman's win in the June primary and called for unity.
“Zohran Mamdani has relentlessly focused on addressing the affordability crisis and explicitly committed to being a mayor for all New Yorkers, including those who do not support his candidacy,” the congressman said in his statement.
"The stakes are existential. Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress have unleashed an unprecedented assault on the economy, ripped healthcare away from my constituents, weaponized the Department of Justice against our state’s Attorney General and ordered masked agents to callously target law-abiding immigrant families," Jeffries added.
Mamdani thanked Jeffries in a statement.
"I welcome Leader Jeffries’ support and look forward to delivering a city government and building a Democratic Party relentlessly committed to our affordability agenda -- and to fighting Trump’s authoritarianism," he said. "Our movement to turn the page on the politics of big money and small ideas grows stronger by the day."
The New York Times first reported Jeffries' endorsement.
As recently as Friday morning, Jeffries punted on endorsing Mamdani.
"I have not refused to endorse. I refused to articulate my position, and I will momentarily, at some point in advance of early voting," Jeffries said Friday morning.
Early voting for the election begins Saturday.
Let's me explain this to the Democratic Party. Y'all need to focus on domestic issues and stop this gotcha politics. At the point, the Democratic Party is at risk of losing more than the young voters. They are going to lose the progressive base.
It is a wrap for the party if they continue the status quo.
If you truly care about these issues about Mamdani being a scary Muslim, a democratic socialist, an inexperienced politician and the promise of arresting Benjamin Netanyahu; then vote against him. But if you care about ending the status quo, stopping your town from struggling, ending the continuation of insurance premiums increasing, stopping the cost of living from rising, putting an end to food inequality, stopping your taxpayer money going to Israel and putting a check on the endless chaos of the Trump presidency, vote for candidates that care about that.
It's almost over. Do not underestimate the noise. They will drive negatives up to make Mamandi lose.
When the party support for Israel is a mere 8%, why is the Democratic Party still trying to encourage their voters to support this country?
As Israel continues to commit a genocide under the guise of a ceasefire, some Democrats and the influncers are calling out the progressive base for moving on from Gaza.
I haven't moved on from Israel. I am laser focused on ensuring Israel will fall. I am seeing the endless attacks on Zohran Mamdani, Graham Platner, Cori Bush, Katie Porter and even former vice president Kamala Harris.
I am sick of this endless distractions. I don't care about tattoos or photos with imams.
Focus on the domestic issues that Americans are facing. Democrats stop with moral high ground nonsense. It didn't help Kamala Harris win. We need to ignore the noise and fight dirty. We need to stop being nice to Republicans.
