Per CNN this was referred to the us attorney’s office in Chicago. That is the same office currently being turned upside down by prosecutorial misconduct in the the Broadview 6 case. I’m sure judges in the Northern District of Illinois would look kindly on this kind of adventurism right now

Yet another outrage. How can people support this?! We are ALL getting ripped off and Republicans/MAGAs are happy to have this. Gift article: www.nytimes.com/live/2026/05...

Mamdani has demonstrated something that Democrats have largely forgotten. You can't just do good things for voters and expect to be rewarded for it. You have to tell them about it, over and over again. You have to advertise your work in office just as much as you did on the campaign to win it.

EXCLUSIVE: My latest story for @theatlantic.com : www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...
