The Muslim Muscleman
Zohran Mamdani won the election for mayor of New York City. He plans to cripple small businesses by requiring a minimum wage of $30/hr by 2030, oppose the federal government on immigration, control rents, decriminalize prostitution, and more. He's an ultra-liberal that puts liberals to shame and New York City wants him. That's called a "representative government."
The Double Standard
In order to fight the attempts at redistricting in Texas, California pushed Prop 50 ... to redistrict California for added Democrat control. It was sold as a "stick it to Trump" proposition, and voters bought it. It's not a "stick it to Trump" proposition; it's a "gain more power in California" law. And the double standard is strong with this one because it was specifically aimed at doing in California what they complained about Texas doing.
A Reason to Hope?
Denmark has long been a left-leaning nation, so it's strange when they are set to ban social media access for children under 15. Don't get me wrong. I'm all for it. I think that stuff has rotted the brains of our children. Is it possible the left-leaning nation of Denmark is waking up to this?
Your Best Source for Fake News
Mamdani is assuring New Yorkers there's no problem so large that government can't make it worse. He's right, of course. Due to the government shutdown, an unpaid air traffic controller is now sending all planes to Duluth, Minnesota just for fun. I guess I get it. And, finally, on Pelosi's retirement, the Bee has a story about how she's preparing for the sad future of outsider trading. Poor Nancy.
Must be true; I read it on the internet.

He ran like someone running for high school class president promising all sorts of things he will have no power over. But plaster on a smile and yell "future" over and over again works outside of high school as well.
The Double Standard
Double standard was immediately what I thought when I heard blue states complaining about Texas. There are some pretty famous (of you've been paying attention to that world) maps of districting that make funny shapes like rabbit ears and headphones for decades before Texas tried it. The hypocrisy is alive and well.

Good for them. One of the few social things I wouldn't mind importing from Europe.
In reference to Mamdani, did you hear any of his victory speech? The man sounded like he'd just won the presidency, not just the mayor of a city.
I love the fact that I'm seeing complaints that Momdani was charging $13 for beer at his victory party and his supporters were annoyed. Nothing encapsulates his candidacy as much as the people who believed they'd get free stuff, having to pay for the stuff they thought they'd get for free.
