    Mamdani Takes 70,000 to Opera; NPR Interviews Tucker Carlson

    Some accuse Mamdani of socialist brainwashing and degrading the Metropolitan Opera with a new annual lottery for 70,000 free tickets to New Yorkers who want to see this spectacle—what’s really happening here? Then, somewhere in a barn in Maine, NPR interviews Tucker Carlson. We love NPR, but this softball interview was not their best work. If you don’t know Tucker, learn more of his odious views and public face here.

But a resistance is afoot...can it survive?
