Political dynasties are making their latest power grab in Manhattan.
The entitled heirs think they can just waltz into Congress like it's their birthright.
And Chelsea Clinton just got a brutal wake-up call that exposed what these political families really think about American democracy.
Representative Jerry Nadler announced he's finally stepping down after more than three decades clogging up Congress, and the vultures are already circling his Manhattan seat.
But this isn't your typical congressional race.
We're talking about a potential showdown between two of America's most notorious political dynasties - the Clintons and the Kennedys.
Chelsea Clinton's people had to issue a statement Wednesday shutting down "rumors" that she was considering a run for Nadler's soon-to-be-vacant seat.¹
Meanwhile, Jack Schlossberg - JFK's grandson who's spent most of his time making satirical videos mocking Melania Trump - told The New York Times that a congressional campaign is "certainly a possibility."²
The fact that we're even talking about political "heirs" and "dynasties" in 2025 should make every American's blood boil.
Our founders fought a revolution to escape exactly this kind of hereditary power structure.
Yet here we are, watching entitled trust fund kids treat congressional seats like family heirlooms.
Chelsea Clinton has never held elected office, never built a business, never created a single job for working Americans.
Her biggest "qualification" is being born to parents who turned public service into a personal cash machine through the Clinton Foundation.
The woman drew a multi-million dollar salary from an NGO funded by USAID while Haiti - the supposed beneficiary of all that charity work - remained dirt poor.³
Jack Schlossberg is even worse.
This 32-year-old has spent his adult life trading on his grandfather's name while contributing absolutely nothing to society beyond TikTok videos and snarky social media posts.
The guy thinks making jokes about the First Lady qualifies him for Congress.
Here's what should terrify every patriotic American about this situation.
These political dynasties represent everything that's wrong with Washington, D.C.
They view elected office not as public service, but as their natural inheritance - a way to maintain power and wealth across generations.
For decades, the same families have recycled through positions of influence while regular Americans watched their communities crumble, their jobs disappear overseas, and their voices get ignored.
The Clintons turned the State Department into a pay-for-play operation.
The Kennedys have been coasting on JFK's legacy for six decades while contributing nothing but scandals and empty liberal rhetoric.
Now they want to extend their dynasties into another generation, treating Manhattan voters like subjects who should be grateful for their royal presence.
The real tragedy here is that New York's 12th Congressional District - which includes some of Manhattan's most influential neighborhoods - could elect someone who actually represents working families instead of political royalty.
They could choose a candidate who built a business, served in the military, or spent years fighting for their community.
Instead, they're being offered a choice between Clinton Foundation corruption and Kennedy family entitlement.
Both options represent the same swamp mentality that Trump spent four years trying to drain.
These people don't want to serve - they want to rule.
They don't care about policy - they care about prestige.
And they sure as hell don't understand what it's like to worry about paying rent or keeping a small business afloat when government regulators come knocking.
Don't expect the media to ask tough questions about either potential candidate's qualifications.
Chelsea Clinton will get the same softball treatment her mother received during her Senate campaign.
Jack Schlossberg will be portrayed as the bright young heir carrying on his grandfather's legacy.
The real questions won't get asked.
Like: What exactly has either of these people done to earn a congressional salary beyond being born into the right family?
Or: How can voters trust someone who's never had to meet a payroll to make decisions about the economy?
Or: Why should Americans accept that certain families get to pass political power down like a trust fund?
The Manhattan race is shaping up as a perfect test case for whether Americans are finally tired of political dynasties or if they're still willing to hand power to entitled heirs who view public service as their birthright.
For the sake of the Republic, let's hope voters choose differently this time.
