Two other Democrats have now joined Kirsten Gillibrand in falsely accusing the Muslim mayoral candidate for New York City of supporting calls for violence against Jews.
The great Bernie blocks of 2016 and 2020 did not destroy my hope for revolution, but they did prove to me that the national DNC will never be the route to that revolution. Mamdani is showing us the way: grassroots local politics, build the base by pushing progressive policies on the local level. I suspect the establishment Dems still have more levers to pull if they want to block Mamdani’s policies once he is in office. If we want revolution, we gotta support him and fight to prevent these blocks. Primary any Rep or senator that tries to prevent him from helping the common person.

Yeah, 100% agree. See also David Hogg, who tried to reform the DNC from within, and how well that turned out.
The DNC is rotten with big donor money, they will never kick that habit. Excited to see what Hogg does next!
