Andrew Cuomo is very concerned about crimes against women and street harassment. For more information, google “Andrew Como and harassment”
.@zohranmamdani wants to legalize prostitution, a gift to traffickers, gangs & organized crime. I fought this bill as governor. The city is already grappling with shutting down the ‘Market of Sweethearts’ in Queens and other known hot spots plagued with prostitution, crime, and

I wonder, is there a reason why this toddler might not be able just now to get care for his ‘preexisting health problem’ ?

I don't understand how anyone with a soul can see these images and not immediately understand how fucking evil this war is. Every country in the world should be putting maximum pressure on Israel to allow in aid and to broker a ceasefire that permanently ends the war.
🚨 Zainab Ahmed Muhammad Abu Hlaib, starved to death under the U.S.-Israeli siege, was brought lifeless to Nasser Hospital an hour ago. Gaza hospitals recorded 9 new deaths from starvation in the past 24 hours, bringing the total to 122, including over 80 children.

Back at the ICE booth, a lone protester was at last present, asking a simple question. At the deportation officer recruiting table, he asked the agent, “Have you read Eichmann in Jerusalem?”

Naturally there were lots of law enforcement types hanging around the convention — men with military fades, moisture-wicking shirts, and tattoos of the Bible and the Constitution and eagles and flags...

I do think it's pretty cool that these women who got thrust into a national spotlight by a bravo reality show got radicalized over the last few years and now use their platforms to advocate for trans people and Palestinians on their hugely successful podcast
The I’ve Had It Podcast explaining why New York Dems who are bought and paid for by AIPAC won’t endorse Zohran Mamdani. 100 Percent correct it’s the donors.

Hard to think of a politician in living memory (at least mine) who's acted with more integrity and class than @bradlander has these past few weeks and months—if Zohran pulls it off, Lander's refusal to punch left and fear monger will be a major reason why

Not for nothing, but arguably no single person was more responsible for Republicans' House majority during the last two years of the Biden Administration than Andrew Cuomo.

The former governor stacked New York’s highest court with conservatives who hijacked the state’s redistricting process.

The Democrats actually find their answer to the “How do we reconnect with young men” question about once every six months but it’s never a guy who will take a donation from Lockheed Martin so they consider the question unanswerable.

Remember when Cuomo hated de Blasio so much that he refused to put any effort into the last Census, and then New York came up short by less than a thousand people and lost a whole seat in Congress, which led to the loss of the house & the passage of Trump’s agenda?

This is truly one of the most beautiful works of political performance I have ever witnessed. He was threatened with a car bomb two days ago. He didn’t retreat behind a wall of guns and guards. He walked amongst his fellow New Yorkers. THAT’s love, courage, trust, LEADERSHIP.

I love how Ross has tweeted this every two weeks for the past five years
What would the NYC mayoral race look like w/ a functional institutional left? A question few want to ask. Zohran, on his own basically, has pulled close to Cuomo, but Cuomo has a super PAC that will spend $20 million when this race is done. No comparable counter-effort. WFP MIA.
