Zohran Mamdani just erased a $12 BILLION deficit with zero service cuts and zero new taxes on regular New Yorkers. Republicans said it was impossible. They lied. Remember six months ago when every Republican pundit, every Fox News host, and every billionaire-funded think tank was screaming that Zohran Mamdani would destroy New York City? That his "democratic socialist" agenda was economic suicide? That the math didn't work? The math worked. Mamdani just announced he completely wiped out the $12 billion budget deficit that the wildly corrupt Eric Adams left behind. No public service cuts. No new taxes on working New Yorkers. None of the austerity nightmare Republicans promised was the only option. Here's how he actually did it. He secured $8 billion in new state assistance. He passed a pied-à-terre tax on second homes valued over $5 million, which means billionaires who use Manhattan apartments as glorified parking spots for their money are finally paying their fair share. The ultra-wealthy are losing their minds about it. Everyone else is cheering. Then he found nearly $2 billion in savings by doing the most boring thing imaginable: actually running the government competently. Reducing overtime. Renegotiating contracts. Updating ancient software. Consolidating leases. Phasing out programs nobody was using. Collecting revenue the city was already owed. The kind of basic management that every Republican claims to support and never actually does. And after all that, he still had enough left over to put $2 billion back into the rainy day fund and $5.2 billion into the Retiree Health Benefit Trust. So let's review. The "fiscally responsible" Republicans gave Eric Adams a fawning thumbs-up while he ballooned the deficit to its highest level since the Great Recession. The "socialist who would destroy the economy" walked in, taxed the right people, ran the government like an adult, and turned the whole thing around in months. Every single talking point about democratic socialism being unworkable just got demolished by reality. Every single claim that Republicans are the party of fiscal discipline just got buried under their own record. And every billionaire who threatened to flee the city if Mamdani won is now stuck watching the city thrive while they pay a tax they can easily afford. Tax the rich. Run the government competently. Watch the deficit disappear. It really was that simple the whole time. They just didn't want you to know.

الصهاينة شنّوا حملة على اللاعب الإسباني ذي الأصل المغربي لامين يامال فقط لأنه رفع علم فلسطين أثناء احتفاله بالبطولة. لذلك أتمنى أن تكون هناك حملة دعم واسعة له على مواقع التواصل.. ليعرف هذا الشاب أن أبناء جلدته وكل أحرار العالم يقفون معه ويساندونه. رفع علم فلسطين ليس جريمة! كل الدعم للامين يامال 🇵🇸❤️

How can so many Americans still be content with so little?

A year after Canada, the U.K. & France warned Israel to improve humanitarian access in Gaza, the situation remains intolerable. I asked @pierremmoreau what follow-up action Canada has taken & suggested reviewing Canada’s free trade agreement with Israel, as the EU is doing.

Le porte-parole du ministère iranien des Affaires étrangères, Esmaeil Baqaei : À tous les êtres humains décents — quelle que soit leur religion, leur ethnie, leur nationalité, leur race ou toute autre distinction, Aux musulmans, aux juifs, aux chrétiens, aux sikhs, aux hindous, aux bouddhistes et à tous les autres croyants, Et à ceux qui ne suivent aucune religion formelle mais qui adhèrent profondément aux valeurs universelles de paix, de justice et de dignité humaine : Les États-Unis et Israël ont lancé cette guerre d'agression le 28 février 2026, pour la deuxième fois en moins d'un an, alors que l'Iran et les États-Unis étaient engagés dans des négociations diplomatiques. Ce n'est pas simplement une guerre pour le territoire, les ressources ou la géopolitique. C'est une guerre qui déterminera le sens même du « bien » et du « mal » de notre époque et pour l'avenir. Ce qui a été déchaîné contre notre nation pacifique n'est pas juste un autre conflit. D'un côté, se trouvent ceux qui se délectent de violer toutes les lois de la guerre et la décence humaine fondamentale — ceux qui tuent pour le sport, qui massacrent des enfants pour tourmenter leurs familles, qui tirent les missiles les plus récents sur des salles de sport féminines juste pour tester leur pouvoir destructeur. C'est une guerre entre ceux qui se vantent de torpiller des navires non armés « pour plus de plaisir », et ceux qui vont jusqu'à des extrêmes pour protéger des vies innocentes. C'est une guerre entre les menteurs professionnels qui inventent des justifications pour les atrocités, et un peuple fier qui défend sa patrie et la dignité humaine en s'appuyant uniquement sur sa propre force et sa détermination. C'est une guerre entre ceux dont les décisions sont assombries par un compromis moral, et ceux qui agissent avec une conscience claire. C'est une lutte déterminante pour l'avenir de l'humanité. Elle décidera si les acquis durement gagnés de la civilisation — les droits de l'homme, l'état de droit et la moralité fondamentale — survivront ou seront balayés. Nous devons choisir : Acceptons-nous un monde gouverné par des maîtres d'esclaves modernes — arrogants, dominateurs et irresponsables — qui gouvernent par la coercion, les mensonges et l'extorsion ? Ou défendons-nous un monde fondé sur le respect, la justice, la paix et la dignité humaine ? La conscience de l'humanité n'est pas encore morte. Mais en des temps comme ceux-ci, le silence est une complicité avec le mal. Si vous rejetez la voie de la barbarie et de la domination, alors trouvez le courage moral de parler, d'agir et de vous tenir du bon côté de l'histoire — avant que le monde ne sombre dans un abîme d'illégalité et de soumission. Le choix est le vôtre.

Mamdani closed a $12B deficit in 132 days, fixed 100K+ potholes, secured millions for gig workers, fined corrupt landlords millions, raised snow workers to $30/hr, and violent crime hit historic lows. THIS IS WHAT A LEADER DOES!!

MIN: Do you know how much new energy China put online last year? BURGUM: Intermittent or base load? MIN: All energy. 543 GW. How much was renewable? 434 GW. BURGUM: But only when the wind is blowing and sun is shining MIN: Meanwhile, the US put up 53 GW of new energy last year -- less than 10% of China. You're clear bias against renewables is harming our national security.

President Obama on Iran: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz”

@gwertyDK_432466 @berlingske @hrmarcussen Det er en trist udvikling.

@berlingske @hrmarcussen Meget fint alt sammen, men de fleste danskere har allerede lært at være ligeglade med at blive kaldt racist.

Begrebet »islamofobi« har længe været kontroversielt, da det misbruges til at stemple legitim debat og politik som en form for racisme. Flere lande gør klar til at aflive begrebet, og Danmark bør følge trop, mener forskningsprofessor @hrmarcussen. berlingske.dk/kommentatorer/…

@LarsNunne Har de ikke disse fag idag?!?

Skal danske skoler genindføre praktiske fag som sløjd, håndarbejde og hjemkundskab – ligesom i gamle dage?

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱 Did you know more than 35 U.S. states have laws that require American companies to sign a written pledge promising not to boycott Israel as a condition of doing business with the government? In Arizona, the law applies to contracts of $100,000 or more for companies with 10+ employees. Refuse to sign the pledge, and you can't get the contract. Texas, Tennessee, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, North Carolina, Iowa, and Wisconsin all have versions of the same law. Let that sink in. American businesses are being required to pledge loyalty to a foreign government's economic interests in order to do business with their own government. Free speech, but only when it doesn't inconvenience Tel Aviv. How is this not the biggest story in the country? Source: AZLegGov, JustVision

This is why MAGA’s top paid influencers are attacking me because I refused to be bought by the same lobby that pays them. And because I’m not bought and paid for, I’m free to speak the truth and will continue to do so. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Neguse: Where is this company headquartered? Noem: I don’t know. Neguse: I don’t know either. We can’t find it. We did find an address that’s registered to a political operative. This company that received 143 million dollars was incorporated 8 days before this contract went out. You want the American people to believe that this is all above board, that $143 million of taxpayer money just happened to go to this one company that doesn't have a headquarters, doesn't have a website, has never done work for the federal government before and is registered apparently or attached to a residence from a political operative, and of course one of the subcontractors of that contract, as you know, is a political firm that's tied to, to you back when you were governor of South Dakota?

“There’s no peace in the Middle East because Palestinians refuse to believe in the Torah. The Torah says it’s our [Jews] land. And that’s why America must always stand with Israel.” 😳😳🤨🤨 He just came right out and said it.

UPDATE: My medical licence suspension review is next Wednesday – 20 May – 9AM – St James Building, Manchester. As many of you know, besides being arrested 5 times, the pro‑'israel' lobby also reported me to the British medical regulator @GMCUK. I won the first investigation. The lobby escalated their vexatious complaints and began smearing me in the press. The GMC opened a second investigation. The lobby demanded I be referred to a tribunal (to place conditions on or suspend doctors while under investigation). The GMC referred me to an Interim Orders Tribunal at the @the_mpts. I won. The lobby demanded I be re‑referred. They demanded my suspension. Health Secretary @wesstreeting - who is funded by the 'israel' lobby - made unfounded public comments against my win. He also threatened the tribunal with lawfare. Eight days later, the GMC referred me to the tribunal – AGAIN. The second tribunal suspended me for 15 months on 26 November 2025. Next week at the review, I will put forward my case again. The existing suspension can be maintained, replaced with conditions, or revoked. Remember: I have never had a single patient complaint in my 7‑year career. This is political persecution. Because I opposed genocide and supremacism. This is a public hearing. You are welcome to attend. We will fight. We will win. Free Palestine 🇵🇸. Free Britain 🇬🇧. 📅 Date: 20 May 2026 ⏰ Time: 9:00 – 17:00 📍 Address: St James Building, 79 Oxford St, Manchester M1 6FQ

@jacob_feldborg Det absolut vigtigste for Danmarks fremtid er, at DF holdes uden for indflydelse. Løkke forstår heldigvis dette.

Det er ubærligt, hvis Mette og Co. får fire år mere, fordi DF ikke vil indse, at der ikke er et scenarium uden LLR som minister. En blå regering med M vil sikre ansvarlig økonomi og stramninger af udlændingepolitikken - og forhindre lempelser, som Ø/Å/RV kræver #dkpol

Instead of watching an hour of Netflix, watch this 2 hour hour Stanford lecture will teach you more about how LLMs like ChatGPT and Claude are built than most people working at top AI companies learn in their entire careers.

El momento en el que el ejército terrorista de "Israel" lanzó fósforo blanco masivamente contra las poblaciones del sur del Líbano, un arma química que arrasa todo a su paso, alcanzando temperaturas de hasta 800-815 °C. EEUU e "Israel" tienen impunidad total y pueden perpetrar todos los crímenes de guerra, que ni siquiera hay escándalo mediático.
