Excerpt:

Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) announced her support for New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani yesterday, suggesting that he is offering solutions and that this is the Democratic message.

None of this is surprising. Warren has always had one foot in the Bernie Sanders/AOC wing of the party. She is also always eager to be out in front of whatever the party’s far left base is embracing at any given time.

‘Talk about affordability’: Warren boosts Mamdani as model for Democratic victory

Elizabeth Warren doesn’t have a problem with Zohran Mamdani being the face of the Democrats. In fact, she wants the rest of the party to follow his example on affordability.

The progressive senator from Massachusetts swung by New York City on Monday to pay homage to Mamdani, who overwhelmingly won the Democratic nomination for mayor in June — but still hasn’t secured endorsements from many of New York’s party leaders.

“Come talk about affordability for families,” Warren said at an affordable childcare event, when asked to respond to the democratic socialist’s many detractors. “This is who Democrats fight for, and Zohran is on the front lines in that fight out there fighting for families.”
