Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

Ohhhh, so he DID know about the election! He even had an opinion on it!

That I didn't know! Thank you

So basically he's screwed either way then is what you're saying

It's stressful for non-psychopaths to act the part, and though I believe he might be deficient in empathy, I don't think he's fully one.

So, agreed, he's definitely not able to do this forever

Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant."

@donrocko.bsky.social

you can tell he's a millennial because he's quoting Spiderman

Oh dude understood the assignment

Tomorrow:

Reporter "What is your opinion on the new mayor of NYC?"

Mike Johnson "I don't know, I just got here, I haven't had time to look into that."

Traditional American politics is premised on the notion that sometimes you lose and sometimes you win and you have to deal with that.

But Trumpism is premised on the notion that any result where you don’t win is illegitimate, unlawful, fraud, criminal.

You can’t negotiate with people like that.

I'm Canadian and I have no idea what holiday is going on

Women don't like having their rights revoked and treated like second class citizens. Who would have thought?

As an outsider: they tried to lynch Mike Pence, they're entrenched, and there is a LOT to do even if you win elections

That said, based on today alone, I believe Americans can do it

Dick Van Dyke has OUTLIVED Dick Cheney

This but for realisies

His mom is also a famous director! His parents are surprisingly well known

Dick Cheney has passed away

Appropriate response for sure 😆

Reddit coming out swinging with that first comment #dickcheney

Hahaha I JUST read the news

“Billionaires will leave NYC if NYC elects Zohran Mamdani, because he’ll tax them” is a myth created by billionaires who aren’t going to leave NYC, and who don’t want you to vote for Zohran Mamdani because he’ll tax them.

Absolutely! Not arguing that at all

I'm meaning in regards to the campaign where he zoomed all over Canada and met as many Canadians as he could and talked to us "commoners"

Unlike certain other leaders (PP)

@donrocko.bsky.social

And Kama Sutra!

Dang! His mom is famous!

I did enjoy how Carney's 1 month campaign had some of the stuff Mamdani's did

Including a sense of humor and kindness to his fellow Canadians.

I really do miss Jack Layton though. Now THAT was a true leader who actually cared about us.

That title is absolutely perfect

Kudos

... he was 9

At the rate he's going, long dead WW2 fascists are going to start resurrecting just to endorse him 😳

A few days after the presidential election one year ago, we went to Fordham Road in the Bronx.

It was a little different last week.

Good news, he's way worse at being Trump than Trump

And his friends there are far less practiced at being in front of the cameras
