I’m not in NYC anymore but do get the retiree benefits. They have been working on dismantling these benefits. Mamdani is for Medicare Advantage. That blows. Union members are out in force to push for Cuomo.
This is going to be the tipping point someday soon - when enough people see that politics is controlled by monied interests on both sides of the aisle just looking to control their share.
Just bringing this up here.... if these candidates are all getting SuperPACs to fund their campaign without oversight... then we really should stop using public funds to help them run. We should bring that back. Also, pretty sure when you match funds that 50% or less is matching not 85%.
I'd say look at what musk did in Wisconsin and still got his ass beat not a little bit but badly people don't like to see their elected officials shoved down their throats by money. New York can do it Coumo hasn't even lived there in 30 years..
Hopefully NYC recognize their mistake with Eric Adams and not do it again with Cuomo. The Israel SuperPACs have been going hard against Mamdani unfortunately.
Plutocrats know who will serve their interests in NYC. A serial abuser forced from office for harassing more than a dozen women, who cancelled his OWN corruption commission when it got too close to him & his corrupt buddies. Bought and bossed Cuomo. Don’t vote or rank him. NYC you’ve been warned.
My son said his YouTube videos have been flooded with Cuomo adds.
But I heard Cuomo didn't invest in any field work/outreach until a few days ago. May he lose the race and all the Oligarch's money.
Before 2024, i had no idea who Bill Ackman was. Now i know he helped depose the Harvard president, give us Trump and now floods my mailbox and tv to try to give us Cuomo. What a streak for a formerly anonymous douchebag.
Thing about single party cities, is everyone runs under that single party. Eric Adams is literally a cop and a right winger, that ran as a Democrat. That's the game, and you can see that it works for those who disguise themselves well enough
Maybe sometimes, but it's probably time to admit there's a deep homegrown authoritarian current in NYC politics, it's not new, it's powerful enough to propel a Republican into Gracie Mansion, and it even kept Democrats from the mayor's office for 20 years.
I think it's because the narrow stripe of politics that exists in this country, liberals are very close to conservatives ideologically. On many local things like crime, safety, homelessness, businesses, etc, many liberals are indistinguishable from conservatives.
When I was a Young Democrat, I organized for congresswoman Marilyn Lloyd. We registered and turned a lot of voters for her. Lloyd then voted for Reagan's budget that reduced the top marginal income tax rate from 50% to 38%. That district is solid red now.
This should be shared widely. When 75 percent of a campaign’s funding comes from super PACs, it is not representing the people. Voters must learn to follow the money. This kind of information should be common knowledge and easy to find before casting a single vote.
And an endorsement by Senior Rep. James Enos Clyburn to boot! Guess he doesn't need much more for the win. I personally believe the people of New York is going to embarrass his ass!
That is true, but it doesn’t negate anything in this article. Mamdani’s defense of violent rhetoric makes many Jewish New Yorkers feel unsafe. There are 9 people in this primary and we get to pick 5 of them.
Lander -> A. Adams -> Myrie -> Stringer-> Blake is how I plan to do my ranking on Tuesday.
This does not sound like an antisemite to me: https://share.google/GGVuEd4fdlsBjudhX. It sounds like someone who is appalled by Bibi's genocidal campaign against Palestinians in the occupied territories.
That’s so I’ve of you, to try and whitesplain to me what does or doesn’t count as antisemitism, but I have to say that I really couldn’t care less about your opinion on this subject.
Why don’t you go into a black or queer community and tell them when they can or can’t describe bigotry against them.
How about we show everyone that effin “super-pacs” can’t BUY a political position! Let’s vote AGAINST Cuomo, regardless of all of that money he’s got!
We’ve got to start somewhere!
Get $$ out of politics! ☠️

I hope people ask themselves why and remember why he got kicked out.

Broken system
And then the embrace of fascism to protect it.

Also he:
Had daily TV news with valuable info as Trump lied about the Covid pandemic and death toll
Refuted Trump’s misinfo.
Didn’t make a public immigrant betrayal to stay out of jail
Didn’t do crimes he could be blackmailed for
I’m guessing Republicans.
To get him firmly planted to do their bidding.
Watching to see how the people vote. Is it already rigged?
Either way, we could do without it.
#NoToCuomo
Both parties.
All three branches.
They will do anything to avoid accountability for their crimes.
They will do anything to stop our progress
Act accordingly.
whatever it is they said, then presumably something contrary to it is the truth
But I heard Cuomo didn't invest in any field work/outreach until a few days ago. May he lose the race and all the Oligarch's money.

However, the Arts are incredible in NY.

Make AIPAC register with DoJ as a foreign agent. 67 years of failure to comply is quite enough, AIPAC.
America has to be governed by Americans.
Netanyahu is first-and-foremost a financial criminal.
As is Putin, as is Trump.
Right now it just happens to want Cuomo.
