Yes but as we have been told uneducated white working class, latinos and blacks love voting against their best interests.
It’s called identity politics I believe, something along the lines of I’m suffering and need to suffer more.
What’s amazing is there’s no analysis behind what certain chimps regurgitate. No answers except move toward the moronic, lunatic right.
In any case who gives a damn about Democrats?
I mean it hasn’t got anything to do with what is going on at the moment.
He is also reportedly a strong supporter of the Palestinian people and critic of the Israeli establishment.
Is it possible that Israel have finally pushed things far enough to start to lose the support of the people of America? And that, stuck between a choice of established Democrats and Republicans that offer little difference in their unwaivering support of anything Netanyahu chooses to do, they are starting to choose a different way?
More obsequiousness on show this morning at the NATO summit. The people regaling the fat fuck would be better off reading this ;
Again, this is a Democratic primary. What does the demographic breakdown of preference polling for a race like this have to say about the idea you are presenting. The supporting evidence is completely disjointed from the argument.
The party establishment, extending well outside of local NY politics, and donor class, overwhelmingly supported Cuomo. There are undoubtedly lessons to be learned from some of the dynamics of this race given how historically bad a candidate Cuomo should have been viewed as given the disgrace with which he left office only a couple of years ago. But this reality of who the “party” and money rallied behind is completely at odds with your narrative
There has been both a significant increase in funding for ICE from the CR approved in March (approx half a billion) that funded about 1000 new hires, and personnel from other departments have been reallocated to ICE. Despite that the suggestion that some of these goons are doing it for the love of the game and only quasi official is difficult to shake.
Free Speech fundamentalists always seem to be very thin skinned.
Trump in a nutshell…more interested in having someone agree to something than he is in focusing on what is in our interests that should be agreed to
They all seem to go into hiding when stories like these pop up.
Sorry, I have no time for this story when there’s a 19 year old Vietnamese student at Oberlin who says the Banh Mis were clearly made by a white person who has never eaten actual Vietnamese food before.
And for those who dont understand the reference
The fact that Mamdani was competitive (last count I saw, he actually won) on Staten Island is evidence that Cuomo was not that serious of a candidate in the end. Not too many out of touch limousine-liberals on Staten Island. Not a great look for the Democratic establishment though.
It’s an absolutely appalling look for those who threw their weight behind him.
This primary was in some ways the best and worst of our politics. Putting aside what anyone may think of his ideology and his policy preferences, what Mandani did, and the way he campaigned, was incredible. The vibrancy of the campaign, the peoplecentricity, the accessability of it. His own positive personal demeanor and conduct under incredible provocation. The bridge building with the other progressives to commit to a collective path forward rather than tearing each other down. The ability to beat the establishment without ripping it apart knowing you’re going to have to use it if you win. Just truly inspiring stuff.
But then you have the context of what he was running against. The interpretation from so many that simply opposing Israel’s conduct is anti-semitic and a problem for NYC jews. The reflex to assign ideas to him because he is Muslim. The idea that he was prioritizing “identity politics” just because his personal identity is not white. And all this when running against an utterly disgraced opponent who represents the worst of the “Dems don’t really care and are in it for themselves” sort of perception that has allowed Trump to win twice, and who somehow landed incredible amount of establishment support.
This is how meaningless the accusation of anti-semitism has become

It’s now anti-semitic to criticize American NeoCons
They won’t learn their lesson though. They never do.
I saw an amusing tweet the other day of Jerry Connelly endorsing his former CoS for a congressional seat. Jerry Connelly has been dead for about 2 months. That is how much the establishment in the party pays fealty to seniority.
I was listening him talk about this and it’s a lot more an interesting idea than “communism”.
Apparently there is already an item in the city budget that gives grocery chains money to run programs that are supposed to help low income people get essentials. He is skeptical this is the best way to achieve the supposed outcome (assuming the outcome was not to simply pay off grocery chains). Instead he has proposed putting that money into a pilot project that would put city run grocery stores in a handful of targeted neighborhoods that can leverage the city’s already extensive warehousing and logistic capabilities.
It is not a one size fits all program. It is not intended to eliminate corporate presence in the space or outcompete them. It is simply a proposed experiment to see if there is a better way doing something we already do and wont require any additional spending to try it out. It may not work, but I am yet to see an argument against it on its merits rather than ones that argue against their dumb idea of what he’s proposing.
