Rep. Jamaal Bowman faced a decisive defeat in a primary race for New York's 16th Congressional District (NYD16). This contest attracted unprecedented financial backing, with $24.8 million funneled in by various groups, making it the costliest House primary in U.S. history.

Moderate Democrat George Latimer secured a commanding victory on Tuesday, outpacing Bowman by 17 points with 84 percent of the vote counted. This loss marks Bowman as the first member of the "Squad" to be ousted in an election since the progressive faction's inception in 2018.

The reaction on social media was immediate and widespread, with users taking to X to express their views on Bowman's defeat. Here are some notable posts:
