I don’t know about the rest of them, though I certainly have my suspicions, but with gillibrand it’s very clearly just racism. That interview she gave was extremely telling.
Notice how she apologized for “mischaracterizing” and for her tone? Yeah. Because she know she would do that.
The entire point is to mischaracterize the position and spread racist xenophobia. Why can liberals know exactly what this is when conservatives do it to black people but when racist Zionist do it to brown people they think “well, they apologized by saying ‘it wasn’t totally accurate’”
Don’t believe these people trying to fight progress by trying to appeal to Americans racism and xenophobia. They aren’t your allies. They aren’t good people. They are trying to keep them and their corrupt friends in power. That’s it.
Gillibrand and Mamdani had previously spoken by phone on Wednesday when she congratulated him the day after winning the Democratic mayoral primary.
Mamdani campaign spokesperson Andrew Epstein confirmed the Monday night call, adding that the apology was accepted and the two agreed to “set a path to move forward productively.”
Gillibrand’s readout said the two “discussed the need to bring down the temperature around the issue” of the war between Israel and Hamas, and that she “regretted not separating her own views from the radio show caller’s more clearly.”
“Gillibrand said she believes Mr. Mamdani is sincere when he says he wants to protect all New Yorkers and combat antisemitism,” the readout continued. “She said the GOP attacks on him are outrageous and unacceptable.”
Gillibrand’s team said the pair agreed to meet in person in New York City in the near future to discuss other issues including affordability and public safety.
Mamdani has worked to consolidate support from Democratic Party power players in the last week as he looks ahead to the general election after a heated primary where he was repeatedly attacked for his anti-Israel positions, such as saying the country was committing “genocide” in Gaza. Ranked choice results released Tuesday showed Mamdani growing his lead over former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, winning 56 percent of votes counted.

It’s rich people. The reason is rich people.
Rich is a symptom of reduced empathy
The willingness to exploit systems & labor for fun & profit
“Gillibrand apologized for mischaracterizing Mamdani’s record and for her tone on the call,” the readout said.
Guess which other party apologizes when they’re wrong

That’s quite a conspiracy theory you got there. Is it not possible she was wrong and then admitted it?
It’s not a conspiracy theory mate. Republicans do it all the time. Signal racism and then say “oh I didn’t mean it like that”.
That’s all she’s done. She just did it with the liberal aesthetic you enjoy.
she isnt sorry said she said that, she sorry she got called out.
Disagree
Yes she’s very sorry the mask came off.
Well, and she admitted she was wrong. Publicly. So.
I mean b0tH SiDeZ and all that but still.
Every politician will eat shit when they have something that they want
“Rubio apologizes for ‘below the belt’ remarks about Trump’s appearance”
Oh so she’s going to back him now then?
I read that… but it unfortunately did not answer the question. But they play vague on purpose.
