Summary

The results are in, and it was a massive night for Democrats. From New Jersey to Virginia, and the historic win of Zohran Mamdani as New York City’s next mayor, voters across the country sent a clear message: they’re done with Trump and MAGA’s chaos. This wasn’t just a political win, it was a rejection of extremism and a reminder that democracy still fights back. But the work isn’t over. What comes next? How do Democrats keep this momentum going? This morning, Don is joined by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries to break it all down, the victories, the turning points, and what this new political landscape means for America. 🍋 This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.
