So many people touting Newsom as the 2028 candidate without understanding his hypocrisy and lack of depth. So having these specific examples, especially right now, will hopefully get them to see why he really isnāt the candidate they think he is

You wonāt get an argument from me on that. Agree about the lack of caring. But being able to show them as being hypocritical is important in voting them out of office. We have to take note of these things and share widely when they lie so we can make better informed choices

Trump pardoned Paul Manafort for similar crimes. Cook is innocent until proven guilty. But as a black woman she is assumed to have cheated to gain affluence and success. Because Trump does not think any black person can legitimately achieve success without cheating.

The thing about Mamdani in this moment is that he is telling people that they do not have to simply accept what's on offer [and you see how much powerful interests HATE that]. He is doing this in just a couple of areas. Others could do the same focusing on the areas of life that most speak to them.
