In Israel, Adams Raises Doubts About Safety of Jews in New York

Mayor Eric Adams painted an alarming picture of his city under his successor, Zohran Mamdani, saying, “If I were a Jewish New Yorker, I’d be concerned about my children.”

The New York Times

My congressmember Grace Meng did not endorse Zohran. While I don't think she's awful, if the quite conservative Gov Hochul can be bothered to do it and you didn't, it's not a good look. Looking forward to seeing who will run in the Democratic primary against her.

George Conway, a prominent Trump critic, may jump into New York congressional race, source tells CNN

George Conway, a prominent lawyer and critic of President Donald Trump, is actively considering running for Congress from New York City, a source familiar with the matter tells CNN.

CNN

Yes he is a #SocialMedia wonk, but social media savvy is important these days particularly as the electorate skews younger, & he uses platforms to inform followers on #law, #SCOTUS & #politics. Though he also uses it like a normal 32 yr old, posting pics of himself & his opinions on a number of things & can come off a bit goofy.

And no doubt he has lived a life of #privilege.

But he seems to be #progressive, surprisingly practical, likable & charismatic.

“Tonight, JFK’s call to action is ours to answer, because once again the torch has been passed to a new generation—to a leader who shares my grandfather’s energy, vision, and optimism for America,” Schlossberg said on Tuesday night. “That leader is Vice President Kamala Harris.”

People have good questions about the qualifications of #JackSchlossberg.

+ good points about dynasties.

Counter on dynasties: after #Trump’s wins, it’s clear Americans love name recognition. I’d rather any progressive in office than a Vance type, if that’s what it takes. Also Schlossberg was raised by #CarolineKennedy, a damn smart & strong woman on the correct side of politics.

But also Schlossberg actually has some of his own laurels.

Skip over the opening with his canned political ad, the interview is decent.
