Schumer cited "Protecting Israel" as the reason for not endorsing Mamdani.

The man is a traitor.

Who the fuck do you work for mother fucker? Who the fuck pays your check?

I don’t even understand how not endorsing Mamdani protects Israel in any way.

The only way they got their leadership positions was the "victory fund" gave all the money to the DNC, so if you didn't support their leadership pick, they turned off the tap to your whole state...

That's one of the big reasons why republicans have the House.

That threat doesn't exist now, because as soon as Martin got the keys to the safe, he started the largest redistribution of wealth from the DNC to state parties, giving extra to states that had seats to gain.

Schumer might be able to hold his seat... If AOC wants it he's toast, but I think she might not run if she's set on 28 prez run. Honestly she should do both tho.

But Jefferies has no shot in hell at keeping his seat. I don't think he'll even run, he's gonna Paul Ryan and cash in.
