What a cynical take. European cities with proper social safety nets have addressed the problem very well, and while homelessness is at non-zero levels, it’s insignificant compared to what we see in the US. “We’ll never solve it completely” doesn’t justify not trying.
That crowd is trying really hard to not see the hypocrisy.
And yet Democratic leaders like Hakeem Jeffries and Corey Booker won’t support or endorse Mamdani over Cuomo.
That’s the whole point of OP’s comment. We were told “vote blue no matter who” but as soon as a Muslim wins the primary then suddenly that doesn’t apply. Look at Omar Fateh, who won the primary for Minneapolis mayor and suddenly the DNC withdrew their endorsement.
Agreed. They voted to censure Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib (both Muslim Democrats) but not Randy Fine (Republican Islamophobe).
There’s Christian politicians who did that all over the country, but one town in Michigan with Muslims on the town board did it and everyone blames all Muslims for it, despite Muslims across the country criticizing the decision. Please don’t generalize all 8 million of us for that.
Democrats hate Muslims more than they hate Republicans. First Mamdani now this. They even voted to censure Ilhan Omar but not Randy Fine.

Politicizing intelligence and making military leadership partisan guarantees more wars not less.
His positions are actually quite in line with mainstream America. Most Americans now criticize Israel’s war on Gaza. Most Americans believe the rich are under-taxed. Most Americans believe the rent is too high. Mamdani is not the boogeyman that conservatives claim.
Cuomo is such an embarrassment and a liar to boot. He lied and said he didn’t remember talking to Trump, then tells donors he and Trump have a plan. He tells the public he is Trump’s worst nightmare and then tells donors he has a plan to appease Trump.
Oh absolutely. I was in one of the countries on that list. Only the rebels and army wore camouflage, and the police would demand you take it off or be arrested. They were serious, the war was not that long ago. It doesn’t matter if you have no other clothes, according to a local they’ll make a tourist go naked rather than allow camouflage.
All year long Mike Johnson has been a hypocrite. On like every issue out there. He got angry about Hunter Biden but claims the Trump family shouldn’t be investigated. He championed states rights but the opposite when Trump infringes on them. He fights California but defends Texas.
The man has no conscience.
I think you need to learn about the “Trolley problem,” and exactly why it’s a difficult choice. It’s not solely about which choice kills less people in the end and if you think the solution is easy (and belittle anyone who says it isn’t) then you don’t really understand the entire problem.
It sounds like you’re still making excuses. Not every Russian soldier is on the front lines committing war crimes in Ukraine either but they’re supporting the cause. They’re “reluctant to leave their homes and their families“ too, but that doesn’t justify anything.
Worse for Gaza in the short term, unquestionably. But rolling over and letting both parties demolish Gaza is not helping either. Biden was fine with the genocide, as long as it was slow and out of public eye; in the end he did whatever Netanyahu wanted and refused to put actual pressure on him. Even when he was VP he undermined Obama’s attempts to pressure Israel. Judge him by his actions, not whatever intentions you’re guessing at. Biden publicly threw away pro Palestinian votes and said he could win re-election without them. We warned him he was wrong, and he was.
Hard disagree.
“I may have helped an army commit war crimes and I may have shot at people myself but I’m against the war” sounds like an insane excuse. “I was just following orders” has been conclusively debunked. I feel some pity for genuine objectors (the head of the Taylor swift fan club spent a few months in jail rather than serve) but they aren’t in the group you describe.
There was no pro-terrorism cheering, Loomer is just making stuff up. Palestinians ululating to welcome children’s arrival must have set the racist off.
The hospital had no problems with pro-Israel and other political messages. They’re clearly selectively enforcing this rule and then lying about it. Even “Jews for Palestine” not allowed in a Jewish hospital shows their hypocrisy.
Apple requires some developer credentials and notarization for sideloading apps, to prevent known malware. What is the problem with this?
