[PJ] New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed have been getting so many headlines here in the Year of Our Lord 2026 that it's sometimes easy to forget that they aren't the OG antisemitic commies in the Democratic Party.
Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar had only been in Congress for a couple of months when her frothing hatred for Israel prompted Nancy Pelosi and the House Dems to pass a resolution condemning antisemitism. They also threw in "Islamophobia," because Democrats also believe in Bigfoot and the Tooth Fairy. The reason that Granny Boxwine went the resolution route was to avoid directly censuring the odious Omar shortly after she'd gotten to Capitol Hill. The Squad soon became such a thorn in Pelosi's side that I'm sure that she regretted not throwing Omar under the bus when she had the chance.
Omar's rabid Jew hatred put her on the radar and under a microscope. Like her fellow squad member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Omar's perpetually gaping maw calls a lot of attention to herself.

Did they search her brother's dresser drawers for his panties also ? 🤔
-------------- But on a more serious note:
This could go 2 ways.
1. They find stuff and she claims it was planted and her voters come to her defense.
2. Given a DC (left leaning) Federal Judge issued the warrant. What if this a political 180 scenario? Where she uses it to rally her voters claiming Trump is a _ (insert something) _, and she needs their support. Then the Fed's find nothing useful?
[HotAir] To be honest, the headline poses a loaded question, as anyone who thinks there are "six biological genders" has some sort of mental crisis.
That still leaves us with this poser: Where did James Talarico go for two weeks in the middle of a Senate campaign? Talarico's campaign insisted he was stuck at home with the flu, but no one gets bedridden for a fortnight with the flu, especially 37-year-old men, regardless of whether they have Type I diabetes. Rumors of a stay at a mental hospital began racing through social media, and soon enough, Nick Sortor claimed to have evidence of it:
Following reporting by @SaraGonzalesTX and @CarolineWren, a hospital employee told @RheinAmacher and I that Talarico had in fact been a patient at the Lindner Center of Hope near Cincinnati, Ohio, which specializes in around-the-clock mental health treatment.
While I sympathize with those dealing with mental health crises, this man is CLEARLY not suited to become a US Senator representing over 30 MILLION TEXANS. The job doesn’t get easier after being elected — it only gets MORE stressful. And Talarico clearly can’t handle it.
I pray he gets the help he needs, but Texans need a real representative they can rely on.
This popped up yesterday afternoon, after Sortor sent out a warning to Talarico to 'come clean' about it first. It sounds as though a receptionist or nurse got caught by surprise with the call and blurted out a patient's status to an unknown caller. Needless to say, anyone who has dealt with healthcare providers would find this level of indiscretion rather surprising. While it's not entirely clear that HIPAA would cover this situation, providers err sharply to the side of caution when sharing such information. Moreover, one would expect an emergency mental health provider to be extra careful about sharing patient statuses with anyone outside of immediate and known family.

The Lindner Center of Hope is beautifully designed, as are a number of other complexes donated around the city by the family. It is rumoured that the psychiatric center was originally built so that a family member could quietly get the treatment he needed in more salubrious surroundings, but like so much else it might just have been the family generosity — I think it was in Vail that we took the trailing daughters to see an entirely unexpected Spanish folk dancing performance in an absolute jewel of a little theater they’d donated, so they’d have additional amusement options when they were there on holiday.
