This weekend, the New York Times looked at 3 upcoming congressional primaries in progressive districts, thought long and hard, and endorsed all white guys -- 2 of which are more conservative than their districts and their opponents.
New York’s 10th Congressional District is one of the most progressive in America. It is multicultural and includes Chinatown, Greenwich Village, and a sizable Latino community. Rockstar progressive state assemblywoman Yuh-Line Niou and Mondaire Jones (the current progressive Congressman who jumped from another district) are both running.
But the NY Times endorsed Dan Goldman -- a self-funding TV pundit with no known ideology whom they “forgot” to mention is a personal family friend of the publisher.
In New York’s 17th Congressional District, Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) Chair Sean Patrick Maloney jumped into this district from his current district because it is so Democratic.
Maloney is a corporate Democrat who actively bragged about watering down Obamacare multiple times. He’s spent more than $43 million from Democratic donors like you helping election-denying insurrectionists win Republican nominations…because rooting for Trump to win the nomination worked great in 2016.
He’s being challenged by progressive state senator Alessandra Biaggi, who rose to fame like AOC by knocking off a crusty corporate Democratic powerbroker. But the NY Times endorsed…the corporate Democrat.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
