This, to me, is real mensch shit.

See if you can spot the difference between New York Times propaganda and the Israeli press. I know it’s subtle, let me know if you can’t figure it out.

IDF soldiers spoke to Haaretz about the military directive to shoot Palestinians seeking food. The on-the-ground soldiers say they are murdering Gazans for no reason and that the Israeli govt and military are hiding behind the idea of a "threat" that doesn't exist." www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

i think i would take the hysteria over mamdani’s ability to govern more seriously if half these people hasn’t endorsed eric adams

I just want y’all to contemplate the reaction if a member of any other religious group was treated this way by a member of Congress.

this is a segregationist administration and it is wild to me that there is any resistance to this straightforward observation

and next time some loser from the political part of washington dc wants to say anything about new york city they should have to disclose what year their pants and shoes were most recently in style. goodbye.

I’m a hardworking, taxpaying, churchgoing, grandkid-raising American citizen. And if I work all day long and want to go home, smoke a joint & just stare at the fireplace for 3 hours…that’s my civil liberty. ‪ @sarapayan.bsky.social‬ reports on my mission to end America's prohibition on marijuana:

Lander: "It's just gross, racist bigotry. Meanwhile he's running an optimistic, upbeat campaign for a NY where everybody belongs, and I feel proud as the highest-ranking Jewish elected official in NYC to be supporting somebody who would be the first Muslim mayor—what could be more NYC than that?"

People are struggling to define what Brad Lander did for Zohran Mamdani in this election and it’s a mitzvah. He did a mitzvah for Zohran.

i’m no stranger to extreme hate mail but have been blown away by the apocalyptic messages my Jewish friends in NYC who supported Zohran have received from other Jews (including friends and family) who believe he’s doing actual jihad. it is beyond all reason

i don’t practice trans sharia i aint got no crystal ball

they’re calling to deport him over rap lyrics by the way

Each time a remotely progressive candidate wins office in the US, the rich declare they're going to leave town. What do they actually do? Nothing. A 2016 study found only 0.04% of millionaires move in a given year due to tax increases. Rich people talk to feel important. Please properly tax them.

remember when Elon Musk straight up performed a Nazi salute, twice, on stage, and the NYT was like "hmm, huh, what can this mean, who can say"

Kirsten Gillibrand on WNYC won’t endorse Mamdani. Said she doesn’t endorse NYC mayoral races (she endorsed Adams in 2021), and is waiting to see who runs on what line. What a fucking disgrace.

🚨 🚨 🚨 @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social just implied on the Brian Lehrer show that Zohran Mamdani is affiliated with Hamas and/or promotes violent jihad! ☎️ ☎️ Call her office right now to decry this unprecedented intraparty attack on the duly elected Democratic candidate for Mayor of NYC! 1/2

I’ve seen lots of nonsense since Mamdani’s primary victory but the most irritating thread is people claiming they will leave NY if he is mayor. First of all, Go! It’s fine. It’s FINE. Go swelter in FL or wherever. No one cares. And secondly shut up. You’re lying. You aren’t going anywhere.

Difficult to overstate how much blood RFK and Trump will have on their hands in the coming years. Difficult to overstate how many innocent kids will die as a result of the people who cast votes for Trump last November.

The last 24 hours have been hard to believe. The outpouring of love & support has made me tear up again and again. My heart can barely contain it all. I thank everyone who has fought alongside us and helped make this moment possible. You are making a better future possible.

“Fine, we’ll go with the guy who takes bribes.”

congratulations to andrew cuomo's daughter for getting her apartment back

Schumer not even congratulating!!! Just making it about himself lmao gosh he needs to GO.

you must allow me to do this one time and i promise i'll never do it again. NEW YORK CITY GREATEST CITY IN THE WORLD BABY CHRYSLER BUILDING LEMME GET A BAGEL WITH LOX UNTOASTED IM WALKIN HERE WE ARE HAPPY TO SERVE YOU CAWFEE THE 4 TRAIN STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOLD YOUR PIZZA IF YOU CAN MAKE IT HERE BABY

Careful guys, if you don’t control migration you might turn out like <checks notes> the greatest, wealthiest city in the world.

On trend to have its lowest crime rate in recorded history? Save me from all this safety!

From a key Mamdani adviser ❤️

Nothing but respect for MY 1B candidate

Pretty awesome to see a universal rebuke of the pervert online. Democrats hate him, Republicans also pretty much hate him. This isn’t even just NYC either, energy is across the country. Only losers are rich dudes and sex pests. Unreal vibes.

So happy about Mamdani winning the primary.

Survivors: we fight and win together. You are never forgotten. ✊✊✊

Lindsey Boylan has been tirelessly driving this message home since Cuomo first announced, all while knowing first-hand how he and his loyalists smear women who tell the truth. And she’s never backed down, even when pundits were portraying him as inevitable. Please, NYC - don’t screw this up.

BRING IT HOME, MY FELLOW NEW YORKERS!!!!!! Zohran for Mayor!!!

Masha Gessen looks at the largely blatantly racist and often psychotic attacks on Zohran Mamdani, much of which appear to be an effort to capitalize off of Trump's campaign that, like this, actually have nothing to do with anti-Semitism. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/24/o...

Thanks to @willbunch.bsky.social for the extremely generous shout-out (and for his great piece on the stakes of the NYC mayoral primary): www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...

Every Mamdani proposal is met with a chorus of "How are you going to pay for it?" Meanwhile...

Cuomo has always hated NYC & perhaps nowhere is it more obvious than housing. “It was part of a pattern during Cuomo’s tenure of shifting the cost of social services from the state onto the city, according to those policy experts and homeless advocates.” www.politico.com/news/2025/06...
