What’s behind the pivot, and how is it playing on both sides of the aisle?Next, Jim and Craig unpack the media’s spin around New York mayoral candidate Nadim Mamdani, who claimed to be “Black or African-American” on his college applications. Critics call it deceptive. The press? Not so much.Finally, they dive into new reporting that Kamala Harris was handed memos urging a strategy to reach independents and Republicans—highlighting crime, immigration, and even recommending an appearance on Joe Rogan.
