With a budget deficit looming, critics urge her to tax the rich to fund essential programs. #ZoranMamdani #NewYork #TaxTheRich New York faces an affordability crisis, with many losing homes and benefits. Critics argue that #KathyHochul's stance on taxes favors billionaires over working-class needs. "If she chooses not to counteract them now, then she will own these cuts and their consequences," they warn. — Attn New Yorkers: when governor kathy hochhul says raising taxes on the rich is a “non-starter” she is telling you 🫵 that she’d rather have you suffer, than have her billionaire friends + donors pay what they owe. The ultra wealthy can afford to pay their fair share, but working class New Yorkers CANNOT afford to wait for investments in the programs and services they rely on.

Mamdani used creative props to emphasize the importance of collaboration. Trump appeared enthusiastic about the proposal. #Housing #NYC During the meeting, #ZoranMamdani presented a 1975 New York Daily News front page featuring President Ford's "Drop Dead" headline, alongside a mock-up with #DonaldTrump's face and "Let's Build." This illustrated the impact of presidential investment in NYC. The proposal's specifics remain unclear, but Mamdani shared a photo of a smiling Trump, suggesting positive reception. — New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani arrived at the White House Thursday with a game plan in mind and props in hand. During his last sitdown with President Donald Trump in November, the two leaders ended their meeting by agreeing on at least one thing: “Let’s build stuff together.” Given the president’s nostalgia for construction and development in his beloved hometown, Mamdani brought visual elements to help make his case for the biggest federal investment in housing in 50 years, according to a person familiar with the meeting.

Lessons for socialists and social-democrats around the globe?
Zohran Mamdani majored in Africana Studies at Bowdoin College in Maine, at the time Peter Coviello taught the subject there, though he can't remember if New York City's Mayor-elect was his student or not. For LitHub, he explains how he was approached by a New York Times reporter to speak about Mamdani but didn't, because the writer missed the appointment, and what he thinks of the eventual piece, "a wreck, but of a form so pure, so purely Timesian, you almost have to admire it."

I'm gonna sound super racist... but what sect of Muslim is #ZoranMamdani ?
His wife is not covered. Her face isn't obscured or anything.
He DJs at gay clubs. So I guess he is supportive of LGBT+ folk.
I wanna know what are my chances of having a positive encounter with someone who is muslim?
