The Mamdani Sweep: DSA Captures Three House Seats as Anti-Israel Politics Wins NYC
Today's lead: The Mamdani machine delivered -- Lander defeats Goldman by 32 points, Chevalier and Valdez win, and a Palestinian-American DSA candidate who co-founded the anti-Israel 'Not On Our Dime' campaign wins a New York State Senate seat. The sweep is a structural shift in the Democratic Party's relationship with Israel.
Also tracking: The US-Iran MoU is fraying on day one -- Iran's parliament speaker calls the deal 'a declaration of America's defeat' as Vance and Rubio publicly contradict each other on Lebanon, and Israel's ambassador warns the talks are a 'train wreck.' And the Montreal gunman's 104-page manifesto is published -- it explicitly targeted 'influential Zionists' and has been described as a fusion of far-left ideology and classical antisemitic conspiracy theory.
In the wire: UK's BMA moves to investigate NHS use of the IHRA definition, the DOJ opens a civil rights probe into the Brooklyn cafe that refused service to Rep. Goldman over Israel support, and pro-Israel candidate Boafo wins the Maryland primary for Hoyer's seat.
