I’m wondering if Mayor Adams thinks Idi Amin ā€œsolved Uganda’s gentrification problemā€ or something by expelling Asians

I’ve been African American all my life and see absolutely no problem with an American born in Africa calling himself African American as long as he doesn’t claim to be ā€œBlack,ā€ which Mamdani never did. I hate people Whitesplaining to us who’s African American and who’s not!?

A grim reminder this 4th of July: The US has the highest incarceration rate of any independent democracy on Earth, making it a leader in mass incarceration. Far too many people are locked up in the ā€œland of the free.ā€

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home. Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

Happy 4th of July to all who celebrate - except the billionaire class & those who lick their boots. While 60% of Americans can't afford a minimal standard of living, the 6 richest men in America are worth $1.45 trillion. That's trillion with a t. Billionaires should not exist.

This is a perfect distillation of the new approach to antisemitism: it is totally fine to be actually antisemitic as long as you bomb Iran and keep sending weapons. Podhoretz is just dumb enough to say it out loud.

Given that billionaire owner Steven Cohen will reap a huge windfall from Trump tax cuts, maybe New York Mets will lower ticket prices, distribute lots of free tix, etc.? šŸ¤”

NYPD headcount fell almost every year under Bloomberg, and crime declined every year. If we leave those positions empty, we would have hundreds of millions of dollars to spend on community safety initiatives.

Imagine if the New York Times had broken this story in July 1964. People would have said Harry Truman was right: we should abolish the CIA. axios.com/2025/07/05/cia…

Yes Matt Taibbi a Yale prof really does believe that sectors in the US aren’t attuned to the interdependence of human existence, include your tech overlords. But you can’t read. I wasn’t arguing that, but explaining how Latin Americans came to believe that. Read better.

So according to Hank Sheinkopf, PhD—an Eric Adams hack—African American voters are not smart enough to participate in rank choice voting. That’s absolutely racist and the data proves Sheinkopf wrong. Does Eric Adams agree with this?
