Calling this a "gaffe" is the #BrokenTimes' way to dismiss and forgive the right-wing defense of a white supremacist. Credulity in the excuse of racism is racism.

Of course, the next morning, the #BrokenTimes editorial page would find someone to defend Chuck and the status quo.

He doesn't weigh options and risks. The #BrokenTimes normalizes, turning impulsive behavior into policy.

#BrokenTimes just asking coy questions.
The #BrokenTimes' love of the mythical center and hate of the left: "Zohran Mamdani’s victory in New York does not demonstrate the viability of progressive candidates outside of a few big cities and coastal states."

Tuesday demonstrated that both the so-called center and the left can both be victorious, but the #BrokenTimes still wants to pit them against each other.

This is filled with nasty digs--"Nebraska is a rare spot where Mr. Biden is welcome"--as the #BrokenTimes can't keep kicking the president it took down. Awful people.

@pluralistic The New York Times is so jealous they can't run this shit.
Edit: oh, and welcome to the revolution, Comrades!
The #BrokenTimes still has it out for Mamdani. Where does that link to "observers'" criticism lead? To Fox News quoting Van Jones. FFS. He won, A.G. You lose...

Gonna need a framed litho of this.

@jeffjarvis Clearly Mamdani hasn't groped enough women like Cuomo and Trump for the #BrokenTimes satisfaction

Our Brigadoon Daily wakes at last to *ask* whether we are in an autocracy. The #BrokenTimes Editorial Board says we are *starting* there. No, we are there: fallen into fascism, our press having failed us, waking up too late.

Well, last night's headline spoke too soon. This morning: "far-right and centrist parties in dead heat."

The #BrokenTimes is engaging in outright red-baiting and joining the right-wing vendetta against both Mamdani and university education in this Jeremy Peters special exposing "leftist dogma" at Bowdoin. 1/
OMG: students discussing critical race theory and engaging in activism in college. I'm feeling faint. The reactionary #BrokenTimes hides behind a "charged debate." It's not Peters who calls college a "feckless workshop for leftist political ideology." It's "critics."

Mamdani is just killing the #BrokenTimes. Its coverage is like a five-year-old's temper tantrum over trying asparagus.
