### Bloomberg Picks His Favorite Puppet in NY Primary
So, former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg is back in the news, throwing his weight behind state Rep. Micah Lasher in the Democratic primary for New York’s 12th Congressional District. How quaint! Bloomberg, who has a knack for making headlines, took to X (formerly Twitter, because rebranding is everything) to share his thoughts.
He claims we’re facing “extraordinary challenges” at home and abroad. Well, that’s reassuring. But instead of addressing those challenges head-on, he’s out there endorsing a former aide. Because nothing says “we need strong leadership” quite like picking someone who’s been in your inner circle.
Bloomberg’s endorsement is supposed to mean something, but let’s be real—what does it really say about Lasher’s abilities? It’s not like he’s choosing someone based on a track record of fighting for the little guy.
In the end, it’s just another example of political insiders backing their own. Seems a bit convenient, doesn’t it? With all the problems we’re facing, maybe we should question why the solution looks a lot like the same old faces. Do we really think this is going to bring a fresh perspective, or just more of the same?
