‘We’re Going To Go To the Jacobin Next’: Mamdani Handpicks Left-Wing Media for Questions
Democrats ‘We’re Going To Go To the Jacobin Next’: Mamdani Handpicks Left-Wing Media for Questions ‘Is this part of your vision of a kind of 21st century sewer socialism?’ Mayor Mamdani’s July 10 press conference featured questions from far-left outlets. The Trump administration has been targeted with lawsuits for excluding the Associated Press from certain Oval Office pooled coverage opportunities and for restricting some press access in the Pentagon, and he’s taken criticism as an authoritarian for offering access to friendly nontraditional outlets. Mamdani appears to be trying a similar approach but, unlike Trump, he’s so far gotten no apparent pushback about it, demonstrating a double standard.
