The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.
It didn't matter.
Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

“defund the police was a bad slogan”
Cops going aggro on Sunset near Echo Park in LA after the Dodgers Win. Shooting people with less lethals from point blank range, horses running people and press down. Literally minutes before, fireworks in the street

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

Here’s what I learned: he doesn’t give a shit.

It's astounding to me that the US government/presidency used to function, apparently, solely on an honour system, and that someone could come in and basically do whatever they want without a single repercussion because there never were any real guardrails due to it being an honour system.
