In Mamdani’s New York City, It’s “Democratic Socialists” vs. Workers

Last November, New York City voters chose — from a uniformly awful candidate menu — “democratic socialist” Zohran Mamdani for mayor. They’re already starting to experience, and may even learn from, the consequences of that choice. “Democracy,” HL Mencken wrote, “is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get … Continue reading In Mamdani’s New York City, It’s “Democratic Socialists” vs. Workers → - by Thomas L.

“There will be Voter I.D. for the Midterm Elections,” US president Donald Trump declared in a February 13 Truth Social rant,  “whether approved by Congress or not!” While I oppose government ID mandates for any purpose — as did “conservatives,” at least as late as the 1990s,  when it came to national requirements of the … Continue reading Russell Vought Says “We are in a post constitutional moment in our country.” He’s Not Wrong. → - by Thomas L.
