Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) launched an unhinged attack on NY Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani using footage of the September 11 attack on the World Trade Center.
Hochul has been at campaign events with Mamdani within just the past several days, it doesn’t really look like she is distancing herself from him when you can find them literally on a stage together. I do agree about Jeffries, I think he is trying to be strategic because of his role in the House, but he sucks too much to pull it off so instead he just looks like an ass. If he was a better politician he could have threaded the needle. In some ways his non-endorsement may have ultimately benefited Mamdani, Democratic leadership is very unpopular right now and having obvious disagreement within the party over Mamdani validates his outsider image.
