Wow Obamacare architect turned health care investment bank millionaire Peter Orzag doesn’t like Zohran Mamdani and uses the sleazy anti-semitism charge. Who could have seen this coming except everyone?

Peter Orzag says Democrats need to fight against the anti-Semitic and anti-capitalist Mamdani. How? “I think the Democrats should stand for an agenda that mirrors what Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson put forward in their Abundance book.” Got it.

Worth noting that Peter Orszag isn't just some powerful Obama alum who likes Abundance and hates populism, he has been a source for @ezraklein for almost two decades. He was last on Ezra's podcast in April.

@DKThomp I don't hold either @ezraklein or @DKThomp for what Peter Orszag says, but they do tend to refuse to correct their longtime friends and sources making these kinds of claims. So they can't exactly be surprised at the bitter reaction.

Peter Orszag wanted Biden to get rid of Lina Khan, and his ideal business model is the government gives checks to UnitedHealth Group to roll-up the entire health care industry. And he helped design Obamacare! Everyone is mad because he built a system that only worked for him!

Scan any documents, convert images into text, PDF files, etc. 👍

@ezraklein @DKThomp Really funny that Zohran was the candidate doing exactly that lol.

My told me that deals used to be done wirh a handshake. Company owners had a social contract to give back to community. Today, there is no honor, ethics or integrity. I mean how much profit is enough? How many billions does one person need(how many millions?). Does a ceo of an airline really deserve 22 million dollars a year? Especially while employees work their asses off on weather and wirh equipment from the 70s (most of us contracted so paid poorly and no benefits like mainline).

@ezraklein @DKThomp I’m okay with corporate Dems pushing for more housing but they really have to deliver more housing

@ezraklein @DKThomp
