I really don't want to hear any more hemming and hawing from anyone about whether we're really in full fascist territory or not. Federal goons beat an opposition candidate for office for simply following their orders at a peaceful protest. We're there. Full stop. Now act like it.
Idk. But they'd totally lose their shit if he repainted it tan.
For a guy that is a notorious teetotaler, he sure does say "Hold my beer!" a lot.
I hate it. I still don't watch anything mob related. Not The Godfather, not The Sopranos, not even the current season of Only Murders in the Building. The stereotyping is deeply insulting. Even more so when it's done by law enforcement. And worst of all when my fellow Italian Americans embrace it.

Listening to FBI keep repeating “Italian” mafia crime in connection with gambling arrests. I’m half Italian. This smear of Italians is BS. It’s just mafia. Being Italian is not why they commit the crimes.

That normie Americans are being trained en masse to pullout their cameras and shout "what's your name" as their neighbors are being hauled away by ICE goons....

i just don't think we can anticipate how this manifests at the ballot box and everywhere.
Even Reagan didn't do this when he removed the solar panels that Jimmy Carter had installed.
I think it's pretty much an inevitability that Mamdani wins, but I will totally LMAO if Sliwa ends up beating Cuomo by 10 or more percentage points.

Honestly, the endorsements you're not getting say just as much as the ones you are, and I think you're doing great, Mr. Soon-to-be-Mayor!

Twitter is destroying America, full stop. It's turning our entire society into 4chan and our elites are not only unable to break their addiction to the site, but won't even admit what it's become. They tweet something for 45 likes while Nazi material gets tens of thousands, and think nothing of it.
FWIW, this is really no less offensive than assuming that every Muslim is an al-Qa'ida apologist. People need to check themselves. Prejudice is prejudice. Bring on Mamdani. I want a Mayor of New York that works for everyone in the city. He's the person for the job right now.

This guy's base is made up of people who soiled themselves repeatedly because somebody took down a statue of Nathan Bedford Forrest.
Yes, and Gov. Newsom wants the wrecking ball when Trump's done with it to use on a few homeless camps.
To me, at least, his non-endorsement is a selling point for Mamdani. Would you want Jeffries to endorse you? I don't want him anywhere near me. Democratic Congressional leadership right now is radioactive. I'd be surprised if they were more than 5 percentage points more popular than Trump right now.

You're way too kind. The reality is that it's going to be trashed every weekend by Pete Hegseth and the rest of the stooges while blaring "Big Balls" by AC/DC all night as they pass out drunk.

Andrew Cuomo has wielded the law to silence the women he sexually harassed. We brought their words to life on their behalf ⤵️
Their non-endorsement speaks volumes about how much the Democrats need new leadership. Honestly, if I were a Democrat running for office today I'd seek out Mamdani's endorsement and tell Jeffries and Schumer to stay the hell away from me because I wouldn't want them to taint my reputation!
I've met him. Yes, he's a bit of a theocrat, but he's not an antisemite. I used to live off of Franklin Ave in Crown Heights. He does a lot of good in his community and is very much respected well beyond Masjid Taqwa. Mamdani meeting with him means he's a responsible mayor, not an Islamist.
Imam Siraj Wahhaj is also a major community leader in the Bed-Stuy/Crown Heights area of Brooklyn. It's a mayor's (or prospective mayor's) job to meet and establish a relationship with community leaders from all over New York, whether they embrace every position or relationship of theirs or not.
