NEW: It's no polar plunge or exegesis on halaflation but
@ZohranKMamdani is using some of his social media special sauce to boost @KathyHochul + tear down her opponent @NassauExec in a just-released video.
“Bruce Blakeman, he’s a bad apple” the mayor says

The upshot is that inflation stinks, no matter how you slice it. But no one, especially voters, should expect the leftist media to give the straight skinny on any of it, regardless of whoever’s controlling the levers of power in Washington, D.C.
New poll shows Americans' faith in their fellow voters hits new low. Why?
"The news media basically are always telling us that Trump is the end of democracy. So the Democrat voters think that the Republican voters don't want democracy to continue. That's pretty hard to have a positive view in that case.
"And now we're really looking at a situation where if you look at the platform of the Democratic Socialists of America, the Republicans are looking at their neighbors. And like, so you're for getting rid of the Senate and the Supreme Court and all this stuff, like the Democratic Socialists of America. So that's part of the problem is I think people are lacking faith that democracy is in good shape."
The "lifelong Republican" in El-Sayed's latest ad endorsed Obama and Kerry as a newspaper publisher and calls for "embracing progressive values."
Oh, and he attacked @SenatorSlotkin for being moderate, saying Slotkin was hoping Kristi Noem "will invite her to a girls' night out Botox session." https://t.co/aCjBUTEVwM
Which genius on the Kimmel writing squad is getting a bonus for calling Trump "Crocodile Dumb-ee"?
They sound like they're on a show called "Can you write jokes like a Fifth Grader?"
It's a very real possibility that Jim Acosta is going to uncork another conspiracy theory.
Did Jim and CNN honor the election results in 2016? Or did they fight them for four years?
Jim Acosta says it is a “very real possibility” President Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) “are not going to honor the election results in this country.” https://t.co/qAcFSW6300
Yesterday, Sara Haines was hinting the new press secretary is a whore (after claiming Gillis's joke leads to rape) and now she's whining about people calling Tararico a "freak" because mean kids use it in school and it's a "shame-laced accusation."
She calls it a "dangerous message to be sending."
Former pastor Adam Hamilton, the Democrat candidate running for the U.S. Senate in Kansas against Republican Roger Marshall, once suggested that congregants should repent for their “white” privilege during a sermon he gave during the George Floyd protests.
I think @Hamilton4Kansas should repent for being a Democrat.
Vote @RogerMarshallMD!

The Righting doing the Wishcasting: "Despite Trump’s increasingly frenetic use of Truth Social as a weapon to bludgeon his opponents, distort the truth, and promote his far-right political allies, audiences are not taking the bait. It looks to me like a rejection of Trumpism which is another sign of likely midterm calamity for the Republicans..."
Lou is doing the PolitiFact thing. Defending the Democrat.
Pappas has one Mostly True from Lou, John Sununu has a False from Lou.

Jimmy Kimmel accuses Trump of killing people with his health care policies, "You remember how a few days ago how enthusiastic Trump was about the idea to livestream the execution of the Fort Hood shooter? Well, now Crocodile Dum-ee is having second thoughts because he didn't realize the shooter is in a wheelchair and he's worried that might look bad to shoot a guy—he only kills guys in wheelchairs by cutting their health insurance, okay? It's a hard rule."
