I’m telling you right now: do not underestimate Zohran Mamdani. He is, BY FAR, the most capable *actually* left wing elected official in New York City.

@bfishbfish Not enough people are talking about Dave Colon’s annual party and its role in this discourse

The Bronx, Manhattan, NJ and parts of CT are historically Yankees towns. BK, QNS and LI lean Mets. You'll find lifelong Mets fans outside these strongholds from Dodgers/Giants lineage. If you move to BK from elsewhere, Citi Field is easier to get to. TY for your attention.

@RossBarkan I grew up in Massachusetts. Both parents from Queens, one a met Dana and one a Yankee. I’m 40 and moved here after college. I still root for the Red Sox. My children who grew up here root for the Yankees as does my wife who’s from Jersey. Childhood should inform fandom choices

Walk the streets of Greenpoint, Williamsburg, Bushwick, Ridgewood, Bed-Stuy, Crown Heights, Prospect Heights. Find a baseball fan who moved to NYC as an adult. Vast majority are Mets fans.
Sam Adler-Bell@SamAdlerBell
It used to be the Mets were dismissed as the schlubbly, uncouth, outer borough white-ethnic team, but Yankees fans, ever unsatisfied, bc of their own insecurities, had to figure out some new way to insist on their superiority, so they all started repeating this lazy bs

This is sad. I know as a politician these companies are going to spend a billion dollars against me for saying it but 🤷🏽♀️
Pervasive gambling is not good for society. It turns life into a casino, traps people in addiction & debt, surges domestic violence, and fosters manipulation.

@matthewstoller I have this experience a couple times a year and it’s a real bummer. If I lived in Philly I’d probably go here. forward.com/news/800451/so…

Occasionally I'll look into joining a synagogue and then notice that 95% of them have webpages discussing the importance of Israel except the one weird hippy temple.

I don't think rich kids get their aura from great genes or from access to anything in particular, it's the self assuredness and risk appetite that comes from knowing that none of your fuckups will permanently ruin your life

I think right-wing mega donors saw the vague contours of a left populism emerging in the 2008-2020 period and decided that they were in a race against time to dismantle and fully kleptocratize the institutions before the enemy could get its hands on them.

Fair and accurate to say that Israel has exploited the situation in Washington with a head of state who is in cognitive decline and a sadist, with a cabinet of toadies. But how did Washington get this way, so biddable towards a war of aggression? All that is entirely on America

One of the most poisonous tactics the young groyper/alt-right use is a form of weaponized irony, where they're always joking and memeing, they refuse to openly state their beliefs.
I think about this Sartre quote *all the time* these days. He clocked them decades ago.

I have three kids in NYC and probably live within 10 blocks of some of these people—and yet this entire world feels like it exists on a different planet

Parents have complained for decades that getting into an elite independent school in Manhattan is harder than getting into Harvard; for the wealthy parents who are competing to spend about $70,000 a year, it’s an infamously complicated and time-intensive game of tutoring and networking that involves preschoolers sitting for assessments and “interviews” just before nap time. But the February 2026 notification week for children who applied to kindergartens in the city was more brutal than expected. All month long, in Facebook groups like “Moms of the Upper East Side” and “UES Mommas,” parents of 4- and 5-year-olds had been venting about misguided expectations as they came to terms with getting wait-listed and rejected at the schools where they genuinely believed their children would soon enroll. “Any other moms feeling disappointed in the private school results today?” asked one mother who struck out in the process. A steady stream of commiseration filled the comments section. “So much hard work and time put in for a disappointing outcome.” “Many tears have been shed,” wrote another. “Not sure how to proceed.” “Confused as to who got in,” added one well-connected observer. Another parent wrote, “It’s a bloodbath this year.” Matt Stieb reports on why admissions to New York’s private kindergartens was unusually competitive this cycle: nymag.visitlink.me/WqTLzK

Why would killing Khamenei result in capitulation, peace and the emergence of a more democratic Iran? Every conflict in the West is explained as being caused by a bad man holding a nation captive, and if we can remove that bad man, there will be peace. This is how a 4 year old would understand international security, yet it is also the analysis of our political-media establishment in most of our wars.

I don't like it either, but the near-unanimous decision of American Jewish institutions to back Israel through genocide is at least as responsible as the Trump administration is. Every synagogue and community center flying an Israeli flag has made us all less safe, and for what?

Cancellable opinion but.. his actual professed opinions aside, Nick Fuentes is the most )culturally/secular) Jewish coded figure in media today. Contrarian, irascible, deeply self hating, and problematically funny.

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war. Americans do not want this. They do not want another war in pursuit of regime change. They want relief from the affordability crisis. They want peace.
I am focused on making sure that every New Yorker is safe. I have been in contact with our Police Commissioner and emergency management officials. We are taking proactive steps, including increasing coordination across agencies and enhancing patrols of sensitive locations out of an abundance of caution.
Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.

jesse jackson was the first figure to seriously work towards and build a multiracial, ideologically unified left-liberal movement that could make a serious play for national power. he was thus the forerunner to a lot of today's politics, a hugely underrated historical figure

@semaforben I have three and notice that sometimes my friends whose incomes are 2 and 3X mine are the ones who are most shocked by this, but then I realize that they are uncompromising about private school and extracurriculars, which itself accounts for the entirety of my family income.

@joemomzova @schmoozebag What exactly has he lied about? He hasn’t hidden from the fact that his mother is a successful film maker and his father is a professor. You are more than free to just make a case against his ideology but I don’t really see the case that he’s a liar.
English
@schmoozebag @AndyBremmen no, he's a rich spoiled kid who pretended to grow up "like the rest of us"
if he was genuine and those hugs were genuine he wouldn't lie about his life
genuine souls don't lie about their life
you should know this by now

An under appreciated Zohran subplot is that he’s personally very well liked by many of the people who hold the power to implement or kill his agenda.

@kaizermcfc @omgyayykarmin I don’t think he “hates” them. I think he has a different vision for the city than them.

He is extraordinarily charismatic, and charisma is (frustratingly) probably the most important trait for a mayor to have
