Jul 01, 2025"In a paragraph, let’s review: A machine politician, former governor and scion of a political dynasty lost to a 33-year-old Muslim, immigrant, and socialist who is unapologetically critical of Israel. The political ruling class and the news media assumed Andrew Cuomo, but more than that, they dismissed the people’s choice, assembling their pipe dream on the it’s-the-party-elder’s-turn proposition.
I didn’t expect Mamdani to win. I thought the Party machinery was unbeatable. I was wrong. I’ve learned some mind-bending lessons.

Well we aren’t in the clear yet. I’m like 95% sure Mango Mussolini is going to have his citizenship revoked and have him deported over some bullshit exaggeration based on his stance about Palestine… In this backwards ass fascist fucking country any criticism of the STATE of Israel is somehow “hatred against Jews.”
Israel is a rogue state, led by a criminal, and it can go fuck itself. And it has nothing to do with anyone’s religion, and I have nothing against Jews, and I’m half Jewish.
You’re literally hitler if you don’t praise Isreal and the genocide of Palestinian people.
/s for the dense folks.
I’m half-Jewish Hitler; got it. Makes perfect sense.
