Zohran Mamdani made history last night, becoming the first Muslim elected mayor of New York City. Progressives are celebrating — and rightfully so.

Written by Anthony L. Hall

I’ve written volumes over the years about Trump’s narcissism, envy, and insecurity. But his latest tantrum, accusing Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen, and even Oprah of election meddling, marks a new low in his war against celebrity rejection. Trump craves celebrity validation the way his MAGA followers crave his attention. The irony? He wouldn’t let… Read more.

Written by Anthony L. Hall

Frankly, Trump’s victory was so decisive, and his vision for America so ominous, that it begs the question: What would America look like if it were a conquering Robert E. Lee meeting a surrendering Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox? Civil war of 2024 with ballots, not bullets Well, we’re about to live out a 21st-century… Read more.

Written by Anthony L. Hall

Fox News leads reports that Kamala paid celebrities millions for endorsements. If true, it begs the question: What price patriotism, and how much friggin’ money do they need?! This would also be a masterclass in A-list greed and political tone-deafness. And it might explain how this campaign could burn through $1 billion and still lose.… Read more.

President-Elect Trump! Close, Kamala, but No Cigar

Written by Anthony L. Hall

The polls were wrong, again. Because, notwithstanding my glib title, it wasn’t even close. Black men? No, the key takeaway is the deciding role Latinos played in electing Trump. Because it harkens back to Jews voting to elect Hitler. God help America. And so, henceforth, every presidential campaign will feature the Republican candidate dividing Latinos… Read more.

Fearmongering has always fueled Donald Trump’s rhetoric. Yet his Project Fear strategy for winning this election is setting off alarms. Of course, there’s nothing new about his brand of populism.

Written by Anthony L. Hall

Bezos: democracy is no match for billions Amazon founder Jeff Bezos owns The Washington Post. More to the point, he has more money than he could spend in ten lifetimes.

Written by Anthony L. Hall

Dr. West’s campaign: A Spoiler in the Making Dr. Cornel West entered the 2024 race fully aware of the damage a third-party run could do. Ralph Nader spoiled Al Gore’s chances in 2000, and Jill Stein spoiled Hillary’s in 2016. But West naively believed he could attract voters who never touched a Democratic or Republican… Read more.

Written by Anthony L. Hall

Kamala’s eleventh-hour outreach Yesterday, Kamala unveiled a laundry list of goodies to pander to Black men. Her “Opportunity Agenda” from them includes legalizing weed, protecting crypto, and offering business loans. The policy behind it — Black empowerment — is solid.
