Let me know when Mamdani is being competent? So far everything he's done was already in place & running (childcare for immigrants & Universal Childcare) or already funded (public restrooms). My fear is, people like you give him credit for other peoples work...and you are.
The real fear of Zohran Mamdanis critics is not that he fails but that he succeeds. Americans might ask, wait the government can be competent? Why isn’t our city competent?

Thousands of NYC students had trouble logging onto remote classrooms today because @nycschools had not updated its Google software --and failed to test it last week, insiders report. "They said all systems were go, and they were not."
A Brooklyn principal says the NYC remote learning day did not start as smoothly as @DOEChancellor claimed at @NYCMayor's presser. About 25% of students at the school, and some staff, had trouble accessing Google classroom. “Many could not get on. On and off. Students got error

Well my spouse will take off from work to supervise remote school. And I’ve finally managed to shovel clear the driveway so I can make my way to work tomorrow morning. Maybe I should spend the hundred bucks or so on a snow blowing machine?

Extremely unlikely to be true. Xi Jinping felt threatened and made something up. The Western media and left-wing folks fail to call Xi the dictator that he is and continues to spread the lies that he is after corruption. They can, however, call Trump a dictator though.

That’s a transplant from those nowhere states like Iowa and Minnesota.

All of the bike lanes are empty today. I guess with your logic, we should reclaim them and make them space for vehicles once again. Thank you for this wonderful idea.
Snow is nature's urban planner: It can show us what parts of the road drivers don't use — and what can be reclaimed for pedestrians. Post photos and videos of all the #sneckdowns you see and tag us and @NYCMayor so today's winter wonderland can inspire better streets all year!

As we evil naysayers have been saying, the can mandates, mandatory composting, etc...it's got zero to do with the environment and cleanliness and all to do with a cash grab, money laundering operations, and the war against cars.

The accident is that Ms. Rachel and other characters continue to be excused for their behavior. Hate against Jews and Asians is simply tolerated by our Democratic Party overlords. Try it on any other group and they will be marching in the streets for your arrest.

If Adams did this everyone would be cringeing and saying he was using the kiosks for shameless self-promotion ...
These Mayor Mamdani pre-K ads have been playing *constantly* on LinkNYC and it’s notably heavy on the newly elected mayor as a character.

We should do this in New York but our politicians are beholden to special interests and "nonprofits" that believe cyclists are above the law.
New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy signed legislation today requiring owners and operators of electrical bicycles to obtain motorized bicycle licenses, registration, and insurance. The law, which is now one of the toughest in the nation, also requires owners and operators to be at

In San Francisco you can shove an Asian senior citizen to his death, laugh and photograph it, and the jury will not find you guilty of murder. This is where decades of progressive policy has brought us.

If schools could be trusted to discipline children, then sure. But since accountability and discipline are foreign concepts in today’s American schools, my kid will be taught to strike back harder and let me deal with the feckless administrators.
Parents, please stop sending your kids to school with the mindset of “if someone hits you, hit them back.” You are part of the problem.

All I hear about is "affordability" from lawmakers who have been in office for years as things have become much more expensive. Not buying it!

Me: You know this bus is to Cambria Heights right? Not Flushing. Woman: I know that! I’m not stupid. *one stop later* Woman: Why aren’t you going to Flushing? Me: I thought you said you weren’t stupid.

Pleast stop saying "no place in New York," when it clearly has place at City Hall.
Hamas is a terrorist organization that calls for the genocide of Jews. No matter your political beliefs, this type of rhetoric is disgusting, it's dangerous, and it has no place in New York. https://t.co/Uz74y6uHBB

Oh no. Cea Weaver suffering under the tactics of reporters like Katie Honan.

The administration has much bigger priorities. For example, TA needed a bike bump removed.
We were told this would be addressed by DHS within an hour. Instead it took almost a full day for them to respond, and by then the person who needed assistance was gone.

Just last week, China held a military blockade of Taiwan. Ritchie, you don't seriously believe "international law" is stopping China's actions against Taiwan, do you? When the Democrats are speaking about Venezuela, just please stop deflecting to Ukraine and Taiwan.
If the US is applying a doctrine of uncontested dominance in the Western Hemisphere, does that not set a precedent for China to do the same in its own backyard? Far from deterring China, the so-called “Trump Corollary” to the Monroe Doctrine might embolden an invasion of

Unfortunately, the NY media like Katie Honan, Errol Louis, and Jeff Cultin, (a) know all about Cea’s views and (b) have chosen to run a campaign of plausible deniability for Zohran Mamdani & his associates instead of basic reporting saying that these are their views.
Homeownership is how immigrants, Black, Brown, and working-class New Yorkers built stability and generational wealth despite every obstacle. You have to be completely out of your f****ing mind to call that “white supremacy.” That level of thinking only comes from extreme

Communist rulers don't work. They just take things from other people who work.
The work continues. The work endures. The work has only just begun.
