PCCC’s Adam Green on CBS: “Platner would have been out of this race if it was not for the incompetence and arrogance of the Maine Democratic Party, which put out an outrageous video last night basically saying we have a secret plan to choose a nominee, but we're not going to tell you until he's out of the race.”
One of the core questions of the novel I’m working on is “could a woman campaign & communicate like Mamdani?” and the pool jump is a good example of why I think the answer is no, not really, because what could she wear to jump in a pool that wouldn’t (sadly) cause the internet to get weird in all kinds of ways??
JD Vance: "I think Nixon's historical legacy is enjoying a bit of a renaissance, and deservedly so. I joked that if Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12 hours news story. The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy."
Rep. Adriano Espaillat first endorsed Cuomo for NYC mayor, but after the primary, he backed Mamdani. Yet Mamdani still endorsed against Espaillat in the #NY13 primary. Minutes after Espaillat conceded, I asked what his message was to the mayor:
So JLG’s communications director continues to work for the union running her Super PAC? This is clear cut!

Inbox: Former attorney general Eric Holder is endorsing @kenyanmcduffie for D.C. mayor.
New: @Janeese4DC just released an internal poll showing her up by 14 in the mayoral race: her lead stays at 12 even when they run a RCV simulation. This is quite the change from the public poll of the race, but I will say I’ve heard rumors of private polls with similar results.
JLG's campaign spokesperson with a statement: "After attending a candidate forum in Ward 8 that Kenyan McDuffie skipped, Janeese Lewis George stopped by a nearby park to meet voters and wish a happy birthday to her colleague on the council. She also voted for Mr. White's expulsion from the Council, and repeatedly condemned the deplorable comments he made about Jews. His opponent has taken thousands of dollars from Donald Trump's donors, including his top lawyer. Mr. McDuffie does not have time to attend Ward 8 forums, but he has no problem taking money from the people who worked to put Donald Trump in office.”
