Chances of winning 🇺🇸 New York City mayoral election. Zohran Mamdani: 68% Eric Adams: 19% Andrew Cuomo: 10% (Via Polymarket)
You don’t get a @ZohranKMamdani victory without the extraordinary grassroots movement that rallied around him. And you don’t get that movement without an economic agenda that speaks to the needs of working people. My op-ed on Zohran's victory:
The gap between the Democratic political class and the party's voters on these issues is colossal.
he is truly one of the best speakers the left has ever had
Congratulations to Zohran Mamdani and his thousands of grassroots supporters for their extraordinary campaign. You took on the political, economic and media Establishment- and you beat them. Now it’s on to victory in the general election.

Bibi just blew up Trump’s diplomacy with Iran. What Trump does next could determine whether his presidency will be consumed by another war in the Middle East or not.
Israel is trying to drag the US into another regional Mideast War, whether we like it or not. When will someone say enough is enough.
🚨BREAKING: US officials have been told Israel is fully ready to launch an operation into Iran. This is part of the reason the US advised some Americans to leave region. US anticipates Iran could retaliate on certain US sites in Iraq. Witkoff is still planning to meet with Iran…
