A liberal writer for MS NOW is hitting the panic button over Tuesday's primary sweep of Democratic candidates endorsed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
Mamdani's hand-picked Democratic Socialist hopefuls Brad Lander, Darializa Avila Chevalier and Claire Valdez — all of whom are anti-Israel advocates — won their primary races in deep blue congressional districts, two of them ousting incumbent Democratic Reps. Dan Goldman and Adriano Espaillat, all but securing their seats in the November midterms.
Michael A. Cohen (no relation to former Trump attorney and fixer Michael Cohen) decried their victories on social media.

"This is a genuinely scary night for New York City Jews," Cohen reacted on X.
Cohen doubled down after a critic responded to his post insisting "it’s just Israel war politics, and definitely NOT the Jewish people," which Cohen replied, "F--- off."
"Liberals have absolutely convinced themselves that there is no anti-Semitism on the left … even though there are practically daily examples of it," Cohen wrote in response to another X post. "This is why Jews are so concerned. They live, work and organize on the left and yet their supposed allies defiantly refuse to acknowledge there is a problem."
The MS NOW writer called out Lander, who Cohen accused of admitting to "promoting anti-Semitic tropes" after the Jewish Mamdani ally acknowledged in an interview he felt "queasy" attacking the pro-Israel group AIPAC because of the insinuations regarding Jews, money and power, but said "I have to" in order to ascend in progressive politics.
Tuesday's primaries cemented Mamdani's status as a kingmaker in the Democratic Party. And his three endorsed candidates have been openly hostile towards Israel following the Oct. 7 terrorist attack by Hamas.
"As a proud Jewish New Yorker, I will join you in that fight to end occupation and apartheid and genocide," Lander said at a rally alongside Mamdani earlier this month.
Darializa Avila Chevalier attended a pro-Palestinian rally held in Times Square on Oct. 8, 2023, just one day after the terrorist attack responsible for 1,200 murdered Israelis, though she insists she "would never celebrate the death of any human being."
On her campaign website, Claire Valdez accused the federal government of sending "billions to fund genocide in Palestine."
