On Thursday, June 25th we hosted a live recording of Tablet’s Barbarians podcast, an exclusive event for Tablet subscribers. This week, Tablet editor-at-large Liel Leibovitz was joined by columnist Lee Smith, correspondent-at-large Armin Rosen, and Scroll senior writer Park MacDougald to make sense of New York’s ongoing, spiraling descent into a Jew-hating hellscape.
How did a pro-Hamas Socialist and recent convert to Islam who said she liked to use the American flag as a napkin romp to victory in the primary for New York’s 13th Congressional District? And what about Brad Lander, who ran on a hardline anti-Israel ticket—saying most people view the Jewish state with “revulsion”—and just upset the incumbent, Dan Goldman, in the 10th District? And what to make of the fact that both candidates are protégés of New York’s mayor, Zohran Mamdani, who this weekend referred to AIPAC—but not, you know, to Hamas—as “monsters”? In short, is there any hope for New York, or, for that matter, for the Democrat Party?
As always, the Barbarians riffed on these and other topics, speak inconvenient truths to smug power, and took questions from our subscribers.
