MAGA fans and conservative pundits reacted with angry racist remarks after Zohran Mamdani, a democratic socialist who is also Muslim, handily defeated former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary on Tuesday.
Mamdani, a 33-year-old state assembly member, entered the crowded Democratic primary last fall as a relative unknown. But in recent weeks, he surged in the polls thanks to grassroots campaigning, viral social media content, and policy platforms that resonated with younger and first-time voters.
A longtime advocate for Palestinian rights, Mamdani co-founded his college’s first Students for Justice in Palestine chapter and has been outspoken in his criticism of Israel’s military actions following the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks. While expressing grief over the loss of both Israeli and Palestinian lives, he denounced Israel’s electricity cuts to Gaza and called the occupation a “horrific war crime.”
His stance has drawn backlash, including from some Jewish organizations who argue his views and Muslim identity reflect antisemitism—a charge Mamdani rejects. He has spoken publicly about receiving hate messages, including ones declaring, “the only good Muslim is a dead Muslim.”
These attacks were front and center as the most devout MAGA followers attacked him following his historic win.
Far-right activist Laura Loomer erroneously connected Mamdani to the terror attacks of September 11, 2001, which were orchestrated by Islamic extremists:
"New Yorkers forgot all about the victims of 9/11 killed by Muslims. Now a Muslim Communist will be the mayor of New York City. Get out while you can."

President Donald Trump's senior adviser Stephen Miller—known as the architect behind the Trump administration's discriminatory immigration policies—claimed Mamdani's win would be New York's downfall:
"The commentary about NYC Democrats nominating an anarchist-socialist for Mayor omits one point: how unchecked migration fundamentally remade the NYC electorate. Democrats change politics by changing voters. That’s how you turn a city that defined US dominance into what it is now."
You can see his post below.
Clay Travis, the founder of the conservative sports and political commentary website Outkick, appeared on Fox News to bemoan what he called a "disaster maybe worse than Chicago, worse than LA."
Pastor Greg Locke, a Tennessee-based Christian nationalist and conspiracy theorist, tweeted:
"NEW YORK CITY has fallen. The demonic sounds of Islamic prayer calls will soon be heard throughout the streets. The trash will pile higher than ever. Jews and Christians will be hated. Rape will skyrocket. NYC will be the next London."
You can see his post below.
Staten Island conservative blogger Melissa Chapman-Mushnick also lashed out, writing:
"Besides the fact that Mamdani is a rabid antisemite, he’s also a socialist who hates law enforcement. He is here to destroy America from the inside out. Anyone who loves America, needs to vote against him. G-d Help Us!! G-d Bless America."
You can see her post below.
Conservative influencer Buddy Coleman claimed that Mamdani is a "Muslim [who] wants to kill Christians [sic] Americans," calling his win "ridiculous."
But many see these racist attacks for what they are.
If elected in November, Mamdani would become New York City’s first Muslim mayor—a milestone that has energized the city’s approximately one million Muslim residents. His campaign prominently embraced his faith, with regular mosque visits and messaging that connected his background to the city’s broader diversity.
In one early campaign video, Mamdani used the rising price of a halal cart meal to illustrate the city’s affordability crisis. In another, he filmed himself breaking his Ramadan fast with a massive burrito while riding the subway.
Mamdani has been very clear "that to stand in public as a Muslim is also to sacrifice the safety that we can sometimes find in the shadows."
MAGA, you've met your match.
On his first day off in ages, and probably the last day off for ages more, Pedro Pascal sat down opposite Karen Valby for a heartfelt, vulnerable, and funny interview with Vanity Fair.
Between promoting Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Avengers: Doomsday, Materialists, Eddington, and the shattering wrap of The Last of Us, Pascal has been busy.
After struggling up through his thirties and early forties, Pascal broke out onto the Hollywood scene in a big way. While hosting the Critics Choice Awards in 2023, Chelsea Handler quipped that the year could also be called, "The year everyone became horny for Pedro Pascal."
With that fixation came an influx of comments from fans, ranging from the usual compliments to confessions of attraction, but many people also took their comments to another level, hinting at the depth of their attraction for the actor and even giving him nicknames like "Daddy."
Pascal is no stranger to nicknames, as his friends and family call him "Pepelo," "Pipi," "Pedders," "Peds," and since The Last of Us, "Pepsi," but "Daddy" and "Zaddy" were something new for the now 50-year-old actor.
Previously during a Lie Detector series with Vanity Fair in 2022, Pascal quipped about the nickname, clearly joking:
"Daddy is a state of mind. I'm your daddy."
But Pascal's The Last of Us costar, Bella Ramsey, voiced their concern about the nickname.
"I felt worried for him. I want to protect him from that whole joke of becoming the internet's daddy."
"I was like, 'I don't want everyone to refer to you as that and see you as that. You're so much more.'"
Bella Ramsey tells Vanity Fair that they dislike the “daddy” label for Pedro Pascal:
“I felt worried for him. I want to protect him from that whole joke of becoming the internet’s daddy. I was like, ‘I don’t want everyone to refer to you as that and see you as that. You’re so… pic.twitter.com/AxyjWIUnOr

Ramsey's candor particularly caught fans' attention on Twitter (X) and the "fauxmoi" subReddit, though there were mixed reactions to their concern for Pascal.
Some found Ramsey's concern for their friend to be incredibly wholesome and honest.
After all, Ramsey and Pascal worked together for years on The Last of Us, and they were likely just looking out for Pascal. By saying he was "so much more than that," they were probably more concerned about him being unnecessarily objectified, not to mention reduced to a sex symbol rather than all of the acting prowess and talent he obviously had to offer.
"This is such a pure and genuine thing to feel about your friend." - bryandan1elsonV2
"I can understand where she’s coming from, to be honest." - coralinejonnnes
"That’s sort of adorable." - Betray-Julia
Literally what's the issue with this?.. Bella is literally his friend and was just worried about Pedro being put in a typecasted and thrown in a box pic.twitter.com/8US1wgjSq9

I think Bella is really sweet.

Others, while they did not see it as exactly "wholesome," understood Ramsey's concern.
With the prevalence of social media, parasocial relationships are more common and intense than ever, and it can be a serious and concerning slippery slope from a joking comment to inappropriate objectification, comments, and entitlement.
"I get where they are coming from. People can take things too far and develop a parasocial relationship with a man who doesn't even know they exist." - Brave_Lady
"I don't care for it either. A lot of his fans get carried away with it, and it becomes creepy." - mysilentface
"I really hope he is unaware of just how far some take it. As a quip, it’s funny, and I’d guess that’s more what his thought was." - resilentrique
"I'm pretty sure that he has specifically said that while he found it kind of weird but funny at first, but it went too far and makes him uncomfortable. He has also said something similar to what Bella is saying here. That it isn't what he wants to be mostly associated with, and fears that it would diminish him being seen as a serious actor." - annamdue
"I mean, Pedro initially seemed ok with it, but as the joke laste,d he definitely seemed uncomfortable with the label bc they get so graphic."
"I remember the time a reporter referred him to Zaddy and had him read thirst tweets about himself and tried to get him to say his favorite aloud. He refused and looked really uncomfortable by the whole thing."
"People take it too far." - Big-Ambitions-8258
I literally understand where she coming from but Bella we don’t mean any harm it’s a joke and we literally just find him attractive 💗❤️🩹
— 90s baby mentality (@lilmissmccain) June 25, 2025
Who else is she talking about that dislikes that? Half my feed from the horror community are girls talking about how much they like him ad nauseam, so it’s definitely not them 🤣
— Robby Steven (@robby_upgrade_) June 25, 2025
They're right though. It might just be a funny joke, but it can get creepy and overwhelming really fast. Not to mention that Pascal is actually an amazing actor who deserves to be seen, not just for being hot, but for being a good actor and good person.
— Bean 🌱 (@randobeantv) June 24, 2025
she’s so real for this tho
i know he likes playing into it but pedro is a really good actor and a gem of a personality. reducing him to nothing more but a middle age sex icon is a disservice and honestly it’s objectifying.
imagine if the roles were reversed
— Daniel the Manual (@DanielB33548585) June 24, 2025
But others thought that Ramsey was making something out of nothing.
While the comments were not entirely in agreement, some felt that Pascal should focus on controlling what was within his control: his reaction to these potential remarks and his reading of the comments to begin with.
"Can't he be that and so much more at the same time? Get what they're saying, but also it's not that serious to me." - jonsnowme
"Pedro has literally openly leaned into the moniker of daddy, like he actively references it in interviews and even did a full SNL sketch on it. This is... immensely silly." - tigerimmersive
"He said something like he didn't like it. However, he's also a people pleaser, so he said whatever they want to call him. Fans took that as permission. Pedro can only control his reaction." - glowup2000
why is she making such a big deal out of this? it's not that deep.
— Tolkienverse ᚠ (@ToIkienverse) June 24, 2025
she said “he’s more than a daddy” like she found lore behind the title
— Zoldyck (@EveryPostHits) June 24, 2025
i think daddy will be fine
— ethan (@ilyciwyw) June 25, 2025
Ultimately, the most important thing is that Pascal feels comfortable and safe, and fans respect his boundaries if he wants the comments to be scaled back. In the meantime, having a few friends in his corner advocating for him as a person surely can't hurt.
Relationships between two adults with significant age gaps are not uncommon, sometimes even more so in the crucible of Hollywood.
Actor Anna Camp of Pitch Perfect fame has come under some scrutiny after she appeared on the red carpet with her new girlfriend, Jade Whipkey. Camp is 42 and Whipkey is 24.
This difference in ages raised some eyebrows in comments on a post by Pink News about the couple, to the point that Camp felt she needed to step in and clear the air.
Camp, whose new movie Bride Hard also stars fellow Pitch Perfect star Rebel Wilson, has previously been married, twice. First to Scrubs actor Michael Mosley, then to Pitch Perfect alum Skylar Astin, the latter marriage ending in 2019 after three years.
Not much is known about where or when Camp and Whipkey met, but they appeared in a TikTok in February of this year, clearly together. Whipkey also works in the entertainment industry in LA.
Camp's rebuttal to the many commenters on the post who were critical of the age gap between her and Whipkey compared her emotional connection with Whipkey to ones she has had with men her own age.
@therealannacamp/Instagram
"I’ve dated men exactly my age and Jade is FAR more mature than any of them. We have more in common than anyone else I’ve ever dated and can literally talk about anything and everything."
"Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I'm wishing everyone well. Especially this Pride month."
Many people agreed with Camp, at least about the maturity level of men.
@georgia_ast/Instagram
Opinions on their relationship were all over the place. There were numerous comments like those that caused Camp to defend her relationship in the first place.
@cerealdemoncomics/Instagram
@emmadumont/Instagram
@just.whelmed23/Instagram
Some folks, however, were more supportive, arguing that both of them are adults, so whatever floats their boat.
@camaro_carfight/Instagram
@kylie.rose96/Instagram
Echoing back Camp's own defense of her relationship, some folks reiterated that it can be more about maturity level.
@danstongs/Instagram
And, some people said, this criticism feels a bit pointed, as this sort of relationship age gap in the entertainment industry is basically so common it's a trope.
@amylee963/Instagram
In fact, one commenter argued, a little tongue-in-cheek, perhaps Whipkey is the one really coming out on top here.
@camryngrace/Instagram
Others were less in agreement, and thought that Camp's sexual orientation shouldn't factor in here.
@moeziti/Instagram
Finally, there were those who were still suspicious, because they couldn't really picture themselves in that relationship.
@omuinodabalsina/Instagram
@magicsshopp2/Instagram
Regardless of what the internet is saying, clearly Camp adores Whipkey and will defend their relationship.
Actor Martin Kove is in hot water after allegedly biting his Cobra Kai costar Alicia Hannah-Kim on the arm.
Kove plays Sensei John Creese in the Netflix series and in the 1980s The Karate Kid on which it is based. He was kicked out of a recent fan meet-and-greet following an incident in which Hannah-Kim says Kove assaulted her.
After her arrival at the Summer Con event in Washington, Hannah-Kim says she tapped Kove on the shoulder to greet him, at which point he bit her arm "so hard it nearly drew blood," according to a legal complaint she filed.
But the allegations get creepier from there. According to the police filing, obtained by Variety and People:
“Martin Kove suddenly grabbed her arm and bit her upper arm so hard it nearly drew blood, and she yelled out in pain."
"Once Martin Kove finished biting her arm, he grabbed her arm again and began kissing it where he had bit her.”
The filing also alleges that Kove "exploded" on Hannah-Kim and her husband Sebastian Roché after they confronted him about the incident.
The filings also state that Kove insisted he did "nothing wrong," but an officer at the event confirmed that Hannah-Kim had a bite mark on her arm that was already beginning to bruise when she reported it. Kove is said to have later admitted to the incident but claimed the bite was in "jest."
Filings state:
“[Kove] thought he was being funny, and they play fight all the time on the set of Cobra Kai, and he did not think it was a big deal.”
On social media, people had a lot to say about the bizarre incident.
Kove has since publicly apologized to Hannah-Kim for the incident.
In a statement issued to Variety, Kove wrote:
“I deeply regret and apologize for my actions regarding the incident with Alicia (Hannah-Kim), a genuinely kind and wonderful person who didn’t deserve to be put in this position."
"I’ve always respected her and considered her a highly professional and talented co-worker on ‘Cobra Kai’. I was being playful in the moment but went too far and there is absolutely no excuse for my behavior."
"I regret my actions for which I take full responsibility for what I did, and again I apologize to her and her husband. I’m committed to learning from this and it will never happen again.”
Hannah-Kim decided not to press charges.
Joining a chorus of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's MAGA minions, current Fox News employee and former Trump administration member Kayleigh McEnany proclaimed Monday that Trump might get 34 Nobel Peace Prizes to offset his 34 felony convictions.
The Nobel prizes were established by Swedish inventor, entrepreneur, and businessman Alfred Nobel upon his death in 1896, although the first prizes were not given until 1901.
The renowned chemist's last will and testament stated his fortune would reward "those who, during the preceding year, shall have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind" in the fields of physics, chemistry, physiology/medicine, and literature.
A fifth prize was established to award those who worked to promote peace.
For Nobel's Peace Prize, his will stipulated it was to be awarded to the person/organization "who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses."
Anyone can be nominated—whether they worked for peace as defined by Nobel or not—by anyone who meets the submission criteria, but a person cannot nominate themselves. Most elected or appointed government officials can nominate someone or just claim to do it.
Per Nobel procedure, "neither the names of nominators nor of nominees for the Nobel Peace Prize may be divulged until 50 years have elapsed."
In past years, MAGA minions in Congress and in the former Trump administration, as well as MAGA Republican President Donald Trump himself, have bragged about nominating Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, despite his meeting none of the criteria.
Indeed, as with his first presidency, Trump loyalists are trying to get Nobel "buzz" going about Trump.
@CalltoActivism/X
Which works as a PR strategy for shifty businessmen and elementary school popularity contests, but is unlikely to influence the Nobel Committee.
But now that Trump is President again, his desperate and widely mocked prize campaign is back on.
Kayleigh McEnany,Trump's former press secretary, said on air Monday:
"So, rather than World War III, we may get more peace and rather than 34 felony counts, President Trump may end up with 34 Nobel Peace Prizes."
@cchaplin59/X
@mmpadellan/X
In an attempt to "own the libs," McEnany added:
"That is for the leftists. You can clip this and make it go viral, and go nuts."
If the video clip did go viral, it would be because of the number of people mocking it.
But I was assured this was over, a total victory, Trump is a genius, and they are awarding him 34 Nobel Peace Prizes.

FoxNews’ Kayleigh McEnany on Monday: “So, rather than World War III, we may get more peace and rather than 34 felony counts, President Trump may end up with 34 Nobel Peace Prizes.”Here is the problem: even 34 Nobel Prizes would not erase 34 felony convictions. Trump would still be a felon.

According to the Nobel website:
"Since World War II, the Peace Prize has principally been awarded to honour efforts in four main areas: arms control and disarmament, peace negotiation, democracy and human rights, and work aimed at creating a better organized and more peaceful world."
"In the 21st century the Nobel Committee has embraced efforts to limit the harm done by man-made climate change and threats to the environment as relevant to the Peace Prize."
Bombing another country at the behest of a third and failing to end the conflict a person claimed they'd end in 24 hours don't appear to qualify as acts of peace, just as escalating tensions in a region by moving an embassy to disputed territory didn't during Trump's first term.
Abducting people with secret police in one's own country didn't make the list of peace-minded actions either.
Twenty-three citizens of the United States have won the Nobel Peace Prize, including four U.S. Presidents and two Vice Presidents:
Trump has been trying hard to get one since 2016, but thus far he's been unsuccessful.
His chances in 2025 aren't looking too good either.
