Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

A senior aide to President Donald Trump has claimed Zohran Mamdani's victory in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary is a result of a failure to control migration.

"NYC is the clearest warning yet of what happens to a society when it fails to control migration," Stephen Miller, the White House deputy chief of staff, wrote on X.

Mamdani, a 33-year-old democratic socialist, defeated former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in a stunning upset on Tuesday night.

NYC elected a mayoral candidate. Like... what warning? Nothing bad has happened.

Yeah, but like... his name is so foreign! Zamboni Mangione just sounds like a murderer waiting to murder. The whole city.

[–] kobra@lemmy.zip 18 points 1 week ago (2 children)

[–] Infinite@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 week ago

How's this for a design?

[–] watson387@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

For sure. Someone needs to get on making these t-shirts asap.

Clearest warning? Of what? New York City is one of the few cities in the US I'd want to live in. Stephen Miller is a delusional nazi shit. He should be screaming on a street corner somewhere, not working in government.

[–] al_Kaholic@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 week ago

Absolutely with a change cup and a sign "The end is near." How did the crazies get money?

It's funny how all of their reflexive defenses to someone who is an existential risk to their entire body politics is xenophobia, when white people were the primary voting bloc for Mamdani and Black people voted mostly for Cuomo. Take notes for your least favorite relatives, everyone.

Bruh why?

[–] tonytins@pawb.social 34 points 1 week ago

Of course it would be Stephen Miller chiming in.

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Dude, how does anyone not know that Stephen Miller is a literal fucking Nazi?

[–] Tiger666@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

He is the combo Hess/Himmler of this regime.

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 21 points 1 week ago (3 children)

They get better wages, cheaper groceries and good public transport?

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 11 points 1 week ago

But he's a Muslim born in Africa, exactly like Obama!

[–] DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes, but what about the billionaires? Does anyone ever think about what they need? And even more of it?

[–] Zaktor@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 week ago

Oh I think about what the billionaires need all the time. 🫅🪓

Run for the hills!

Republicans and Dems are scared shitless of anyone who wants to move on from the old guard.
