In an interview at @nytimes.com headquarters, Curtis Sliwa, the GOP nominee and one of the candidates facing pressure to exit the race, refused to entertain the idea.
“No, no, no. A thousand times no,” Sliwa said. “I can’t be bought. I can’t be leased. I can’t be rented. I am not corruptible.”
Mamdani was the only candidate who was viewed positively by a majority of voters, with 52% saying they have a “very favorable” or “somewhat favorable” impression of him. Only 36% used those terms about Cuomo. 56% said Mamdani “cares about people like me,” 8 points more than said it about Cuomo.
Adams and Cuomo have relentlessly criticized Mamdani’s stance on Israel, calling him an antisemite and terrorist sympathizer. The poll’s findings underscore just how much Adams and Cuomo may have misread the electorate by expending energy to attack Mamdani’s views on Israel.

When the US Department of War made this film in 1945 to warn about the threat of fascism, they included this scene of a teacher in Germany debunking 'race science,' the same racist myths and lies being promoted and normalized by fascists in the US today. catalog.archives.gov/id/24376
The professor has been fired and senior administrators removed from their post. No mention of this in the New York Times, The Free Press, The Atlantic or other outlets who drove the campus speech moral panic.
Thou shalt not think.
U of Chicago is in financial free fall and Trump just forced the president of Northwestern to resign.
Again, at worst, the appropriate response to course content not aligning with course descriptions at any university is to lodge a complaint with the relevant curriculum committees and get them to change the course descriptions, rather than to fire a professor, her boss, & her boss' boss.

"“It’s hard for me to understand why he [did that] and it also doesn’t really interest me,” Raab says in a video interview posted on X. “I mean, what was so important about that corpse?”"
This video should be required watching for every professor in the US

He might be able to corral another one quarter of one percent with Jeffries and Schumer endorsements.

"Just the other day, I was in the audience at Lincoln Center when Justice Amy Coney Barrett said, while promoting a new book, that she doesn't think the United States is in a constitutional crisis," Farias told us. "Today, the Supreme Court, without offering a single line of reasoning, more or less declared that the Fourth Amendment, which protects everyone from unreasonable searches and seizures, nonetheless allows the Trump Administration to arrest and detain anyone who looks Latino, citizen or not, on account of the language that they speak or the kind of jobs they do. The ruling putatively covers the Los Angeles area, but the effect could be national," he continued. "If that's not a constitutional crisis, then what is?"
The New Yorker asked me “how bad” today’s Supreme Court ruling was. I boiled it down to one paragraph:
