He fucking provoked her response by first calling her a "terrorist." Note you and Hackman left that out of the account. Zionist pig "journalism."

This is one of the most astute things that a leftist politician has said in a long time. You can be progressive and understand that these bread-n-butter issues are worth focusing on.
Good government is efficient, transparent. Good cities are clean and orderly.
🚨 At the U20 Mayors Summit, Mamdani Says the Left Has Ceded “Quality of Life,” “Efficiency,” and “Fraud and Waste” to the Right
This was one of the more interesting arguments Zohran Mamdani made today at the U20 Mayors Summit, and a reminder that he can be genuinely sharp when he drops the “central casting” routine.
“In New York City, there are certain words that have taken on ideological associations.”
“Quality of life has come to be seen as somehow a right-wing concern. Efficiency… has been taken on as a right-wing concern, rooting out fraud and waste, a right-wing concern.”
Mamdani’s argument is that refusing to engage those issues actually helps the Right.
“If you are staring at an example of social disorder or social inefficiency, and the left refuses to explain either why it has happened or how they will fix it, then the right gets to point at someone in the immediate area and say, ‘That’s who did it.’”
The harder question is how much of the broader Left is actually prepared to follow the advice.

I am extremely happy to see that “let people smoke meth on the subway” leftism is finally dying out

Trump is from Queens. Sanders is from Brooklyn. Mamdani is from Manhattan. American politics really is just New York politics.
After his meeting with President Trump this afternoon, Mayor Mamdani will have dinner with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who's in town for a UN Charter event also featuring pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, per a source familiar with the plans. politico.com/newsletters/new…
The top advocate for Israel in Washington is now publicly arguing that Israel needs to integrate its military with ours so that it will be costly for the U.S. to extract itself from the relationship later, that doing so “would also carry a significant cost for Washington.”
The Senate is debating this proposal now. We can’t really say later that we weren’t warned.

The biggest mistake in American history was not dragging Trump off to prison within 24 hours of January 6th. And we'll pay for that for the rest of our lives.

This Lauren Boebert research is leading me down a wild road.
But as a journalist I must push through.
Lauren Boebert was also a former "Explore Talent Model"
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The post's first image misleadingly pairs Mellissa Carone's photos with a Lauren Boebert Explore Talent label. Archives show the bed photo is from Carone's separate profile.

Rep. Nancy Mace: "This narrative that there is a genocide in Gaza, there's not."
Me: "Let me educate you... the vast majority of human rights groups, including Israeli human rights groups, say it's a genocide; the vast majority of genocide scholars, including the International Association of Genocide Scholars, say it's a genocide; all of the UN investigators that have looked into this, including the Independent Commission of Inquiry, say it's a genocide; the former deputy head of Mossad says it's a genocide; the former prime minister of Israel says it's a war of extermination. The evidence is overwhelming."

The answer is END THE DAMN WAR.
U.S. Senate candidate @MikeRogersForMI's (R-MI) plan to reduce gas prices in the United States: "Let's make sure we are ready to go, that we have an unleashing American energy so that costs can come down very quickly."

Odd for the CEO of FDD, a think tank claiming to be committed to “strengthening U.S. national security” to advocate for US-Israel “intelligence & economic integration to such an extent that inflicting financial harm on Israel would also carry a significant cost for Washington.”🤨

The radicalisation of old people by the media is something we don't discuss enough...
Watch how a young Scottish woman named Courtney handles an older passenger going from saying “go back to your own country,” to claiming she's proud to be racist, to completely backtracking with compliments once she realises she has no audience left.
A masterclass in holding people accountable for their behavior.
