Republicans are beginning to panic as polls show them losing popularity before the upcoming midterm elections. In a party Zoom meeting to discuss the crisis, GOP Senator Samuel T. Schnorrer from the great state of lassitude told his colleagues, “When I first saw the new numbers, I nearly lost my head. I started babbling like a crazy man about passing laws and cutting entitlement spending before it drives us into insolvency. Thank God my consultant was there to slap me in the face until I came to my senses and realized: if we start passing laws and all sorts of loony stuff like that, we might be blamed for the results. I think we just have to stick to the original game plan of shaking our fists at Democrats on Fox News.” GOP Congressman Lorne Loveless from the persistent state of hysteria, blamed President Trump for the bad poll numbers, saying, “The president keeps doing things. Things are bad, especially when you do them. That’s why we do nothing. It literally means ‘no thing.’ It’s right there in the word. Really, being a congressman is not that complex if you know how to speak English. Also you have to know when to stop speaking English before you actually say something and instead just keep shaking your fist at Democrats on Fox News.”  The polls do confirm that Trump’s actions are alienating some people in the party’s coalition. According to one poll — Nikolai Kaminski — sixty-seven percent of Republicans feel Trump is not carrying out their wishes that he would make government smaller while not cutting any of their benefits, bring down prices while continuing to print massive amounts of money so they don’t lose any of their benefits, and deport illegal immigrants without making it hard to find someone to mow your lawn while you pay him crap wages and shout, “That’s mucho dinero, amigo!” because what the hell does he know, he doesn’t even speak English. According to another poll — Stanislaw Dabrowski — fifty-five percent of Independent voters feel the news under the Trump administration is far too chaotic and they yearn for the days when they could kick back in front of the TV and watch President Biden shuffle around aimlessly calling America racist while reporters marveled at his ability to lick an ice cream cone and fall down a flight of stairs at the same time. In yet another poll — this one at the Spearmint Rhino Club in Oakland — seventy-five percent of Republicans who listen to Tucker Carlson blame Trump for sending Christian men to die for Israel in Carlson’s imagination. Ninety-five percent of Carlson’s listeners who named their first-born sons Adolf are also angry that Trump prevented the Iranian mullahs from acquiring nuclear weapons, which would’ve sure come in handy the next time their pagers blew their testicles off. Finally, according to the traditionally reliable north poll, eleventy-six percent of readers of the New York Times, a former newspaper, are furious at the things they read about Trump doing in the Times and are deeply concerned he might start doing them in real life as well. Democrats are seizing on these poll numbers to launch attacks on the administration that they feel will resonate with the public. Democrat strategist Lilith Abaddon rolled over in bed and told a reporter, “Affordability was a good issue until people discovered inflation was caused by president Biden printing massive amounts of money, before tripping over a sandbag, flying out the door, bumping into a little girl and burying his nose in her hair while calling half the electorate fascist. So now, we’ve cleverly switched to harping on deporting illegal immigrants who came swarming into the country by the millions while president Biden was falling off his bicycle and lying face down in the mud for three hours before anyone realized he was no longer running the country. Right now, we feel the idea of defunding ICE will be really popular with millions of poor refugees who came to this country simply looking for a better life with their 72 virgins in heaven.” As for Republicans, they say they will continue to beat back the tide of unpopularity until their fists get tired from being shaken on Fox News. * * * This excerpt is taken from the opening satirical monologue of “The Andrew Klavan Show.” Andrew Klavan is the host of “The Andrew Klavan Show” at The Daily Wire. Klavan is the bestselling author of numerous books, including the Cameron Winter Mystery series.

A top advisor to NYC’s socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani has been exposed for deleted social media posts attacking “white civility” and “white politeness” after a confrontation on a commuter train, adding to a growing pattern of radical rhetoric from administration officials. Story Snapshot Drashti Brahmbhatt, advisor to NYC Mayor Mamdani, posted deleted tweets rejecting “white standards of politeness” after a 2021 train confrontation Brahmbhatt claimed an older white woman gave her “death glares” during a phone call, prompting her racially-charged response Mayor Mamdani has remained silent on the controversy despite defending other aides with similar radical posts The incident adds to a troubling pattern of Mamdani administration officials promoting divisive, anti-white rhetoric Another Radical Aide Exposed Drashti Brahmbhatt, an advisor to New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, authored inflammatory tweets in November 2021 describing a confrontation with an “older white woman” on a Metro-North Railroad train. Brahmbhatt claimed the woman gave her “death glares” during a 40-minute phone call, though she insisted she spoke softly. The advisor then confronted the woman and proceeded to reject what she called “white standards of politeness” and “white civility” in posts that have since been deleted. These tweets surfaced on February 10, 2026, as Brahmbhatt served in Mamdani’s administration. “I don’t need to follow white standards of ‘politeness,’” Brahmbhatt insisted. https://t.co/YaBME2A26n — The National Pulse (@TheNatPulse) February 11, 2026 Pattern of Defending Extremist Views Brahmbhatt’s comments fit a disturbing pattern within Mamdani’s Democratic Socialists of America-aligned administration. The mayor previously defended other aides who made inflammatory statements, including one calling to “Impoverish the white middle class” and tenant official Cea Weaver, who tweeted that “homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy.” Mamdani’s platform included punitive taxes on “whiter neighborhoods,” and he has filled his administration with DSA supporters advocating police abolition and anti-Israel positions. His willingness to retain officials with such divisive views raises serious questions about his judgment and commitment to representing all New Yorkers. Silence Speaks Volumes Unlike previous controversies where Mamdani publicly defended his aides’ radical statements, the mayor has remained notably silent on Brahmbhatt’s resurfaced posts. This absence of comment occurs as his administration faces multiple scandals, including an aide linked to a fraud-accused law firm and the appointment of a former Rikers inmate as Corrections head. The mayor’s selective defense of controversial staffers suggests political calculations rather than principled leadership. His administration’s pattern of hiring individuals with extreme ideological views and racially divisive rhetoric demonstrates a prioritization of socialist loyalty over competence and unity. NEW from me Digging into more of the now-deleted X posts of top officials around Zohran Mamdani This is Drashti Brahmbhatt — a top advisor, who relayed this incredible story in November 2021 about "how terrible white women are" pic.twitter.com/7jsBxfwVw9 — Jon Levine (@LevineJonathan) February 9, 2026 Erosion of Common Decency The incident highlights how identity politics and grievance culture corrode basic social norms that hold communities together. Brahmbhatt’s rejection of basic courtesy as “white standards” promotes a dangerous worldview that judges behavior through a racial lens rather than universal principles of respect. This divisive ideology, endorsed through Mamdani’s hiring practices and public defenses of similar rhetoric, threatens to fracture New York City along racial lines. The administration’s embrace of officials who openly express disdain for white Americans undermines the mayor’s ability to govern effectively for all residents, regardless of race or background, and represents government-sanctioned racial hostility that would be universally condemned if directed at any other group.
