"Nassau County Executive" is on CNN discussing a NYC resident involved in a national news dispute. why would anyone expect this guy to have anything relevant to say? he's there to say stupid stuff and CNN gave him a mike.

blink. again.

It feels like he is trying to actually quote Chicken Little here, right?

Anyone who said, after November 6th, that the US would continue to support Ukraine is a fool and should not be listened to on foreign affairs or, really, any other subject

This is actually one of the original hits in maga land. He’s playing the oldies. Could be a sign he’s getting worried.

truly amazing stuff. wonder how the second term will turn out in comparison /s

yes, the problem must be the democrats. that is the default position of all analysis of Washington politics.

I think I can count this a further evidence towards my theory that the mayor actually gave permission for the $80m to be removed from the account (rather than stolen by the feds).

it's going to turn out that the mayor authorized the transfer of these funds back to the feds, isn't it? and it was part of the deal to drop the charges against him, right? Because the government can't just go into bank accounts and take money.

The unemployment rate will probably be going up soon, with all of these firings at govt agencies and related businesses. Surprising this doesn’t get more attention since a “strong economy” has been an important Trump promise. But mass layoffs is one way to get rates lower…

I really don’t get it. I had no idea he even did this song but why would I care one way or the other about ….Drake?

Sorry my dudes. Kendrick does not make interesting or enjoyable music. If you’ve never heard his music before, there was nothing about this performance that would resonate. I mean, compare this to Prince’s halftime show.

This Krebs Security article confirms my suspicion. That these dumb kids are going to end up in jail as fall guys for some serious crimes. That’s what they were hired for.

I'm betting a lot worse information is going to come out about this guy. sounds like he's got some dangerous acquaintances www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Seems like the sort of guy who wouldn’t realize he could get thrown under the bus and criminally prosecuted

I mean, the "blitz" is obviously illegal in many ways, no need to tip-toe. The kids actually executing the breaking of laws remind me of the young corner boys in The Wire-obvious fall guys for the kingpins. plus they're too young and stupid to know better.

Like the tariffs, this will never happen. It’s nonsense.

He blinked. The thing he’s talked about nonstop for 4 years, after building up worldwide hype on decision day…and he caved without getting anything. He basically announced he has no leverage for the rest of his term. Everything else for the next 4 years is just noise.

no juice. he will always capitulate.

and so begins the lame duck portion of his 2nd term.

it's just so stupid.

Strange absence of news so far about whether the tariffs against Mexico and Canada (and vice versa) are actually in effect.

By the end of his term, I bet 75% of them are re-arrested. Over or under?

"sovereign" get the fuck out of here... dopey soft old white dude using big words.

this is some funny stuff

this headline claims families have "fled" NYC but the article fails to provide any numbers on current school age population or pre-k enrollment or any sort of historical trend. why is that?

this confirms my priors that most NYC accidents are caused by impatient out of state drivers angry about the traffic.

awesome

oh no! maybe my favorite movie (and tv) director, David Lynch - rip. my daughter Carly and I have become obsessed together with his work and I have truly loved the Twin Peaks bond we have, thanks to Lynch. deadline.com/2025/01/davi...

“Real Mark” 🤣🤣🤣 www.wsj.com/tech/mark-zu...

it's as if this guy has never met a musician. almost nothing in life is as enjoyable as playing live music with other people

This is some stupid shit for thought process. Ny post-worthy

I saw A Complete Unknown last night with my family- it was excellent. Chalamet crushes it. I’m a latecomer to Dylan -didn’t listen to him much until we started doing a bunch of his songs with my band. But I had heard about Dylan “going electric” since I was a kid. The movie really nails it.

Still trying to process how awesome this is

It’s not really credible that there were 55k more people living on the streets in NYC in 2024 than in 2023. But that’s not the point. “homelessness” is amorphous and flexible.

this type of article is just obviously trolling click bait and it worked. junk.

Greatest album of my lifetime. Side one is my favorite sequence of songs ever.

This is really just silly (click bait) doomerism. A president can’t just eliminate the FDIC. It’s not worth the conversation. Even if he could it would be too stupid even for Trump.
