Right-Wing Republicans in Congress Attack Mamdani With Islamophobic Comments

I love that both democrats and Republicans are losing their fucking minds. We did something right if that's the case.

I'm glad The NY Times is at least regularly calling these racist now in their news department, instead of "racially charged" or whatever.

But his shock win put him on the national radar, and some Republicans in Congress are now seeking to undermine him using a strategy similar to the racist one that Donald J. Trump employed against former President Barack Obama by questioning whether he was born in the United States. [...]

Some Democrats condemned the comments and expressed outrage, although they have learned not to expect any response. And their denunciations of racist attacks typically disappear into a morass of polarized content on social media. [...]

[Senator Tommy Tuberville, Republican of Alabama] made racist comments in response, lamenting New York City’s high concentration of undocumented immigrants and referring to them as vermin who “live off the federal government.”

Right wing Republicans? Are there currently left wing Republicans? I'm sure there are like 3 left wing Democrats but, the lion's share of politicians in the United States are right wing.

Republicans have long known their rhetoric is bullshit but have relied on Dems vote blue no matter who to keep the status quo.

Now that the Dems can no longer count on that, republicans are fucking terrified, while the Dems are scrambling to figure out how to keep the base content

You can’t simultaneously be unamerican and have a fire club remix on SoundCloud where you’re rapping about your grandma. That’s the most American thing ever.
