What a load of crap that the final mayoral debate is being held on NY1 channel, a spectrum cable service only available to spectrum subscribers. Why did they agree to limit the exposure for New Yorkers??

My only concern is that with many opportunities Mamdani would not publicly condemn Hamas. I like Mamdami. I listen to everything g he says. He admits mistakes and explains his reasons and thinking. So why not condemn Hamas. A murderous group who commits atrocity’s even to their own people??

The top 7 health insurers reported $34 billion in profits last year, while over 100 million Americans have $220 billion in medical debt.

Medical debt is a uniquely American term to describe how private companies exploit sick people.

Your debt is their profit.

Twenty Lessons, read by John Lithgow Key selections from On Tyranny, for viewing and sharing

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.
