On one hand non-Black Dem candidates often pay their Black constituents dust. However, I’m not voting for anyone solely because they are Black. One’s platform matters to me, and though I wasn’t as pleased with @zohrankmamdani’s performance this time he’s still my #1. #NYCmayoraldebate #DREAMNYC
Why wouldn’t Cuomo direct a budget related question to Adams or Stringer, versus Tilson? It’s giving plant. #NYCmayoraldebate #DREAMNYC
Zellenor Myrie and @bradlander.bsky.social shouting out Prospect Park made my heart swell. When I was growing up people didn’t give the park any respect, nor did the city. #NYCmayoraldebate
Charter schools do not benefit low income communities. Also, they are largely ableist. Whitney Tilson is showing his privilege (KIPP board member of two decades). This is why he wants to “cut the fat” at the DOE. Sounds self-serving. Support public schools. #NYCmayoraldebate
Cuomo is on Israel’s payroll; it’s a conflict of interest. Stringer announcing he’s a “proud Zionist” in the midst of a genocide is disgusting. Tilson’s libelous accusation against Mamdani is indefensible. What is happening in Gaza is a genocide! #NYCmayoraldebate
@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social folding on this question about Israel has me feeling some way. War crime on 10/7 guy? BFFR. But why are we talking about Israel in a debate about being mayor of NYC? #NYCmayoraldebate
Whitney Tilson modeling himself after Bloomberg is a losing strategy. NYCers hated Bloomberg a little less than DeBlasio. #NYCmayoraldebate
The NYPD has one of the largest police department budgets in the USA. Their overtime pay is a scam. The people of New York pay for the lawsuits against them versus having that money come out of their pension fund. And qualified immunity must end. #NYCmayoraldebate cbcny.org/research/not...
Not Undercover
New York City’s Fiscal Year 2024 Executive Budget allocates $10.8 billion for the NYPD in fiscal year 2024.

Andrew Cuomo’s fuck ups cost New Yorkers roughly $60 million and the lives of many seniors. He’s already cost us enough. #NYCmayoraldebate #DREAMNYC
Sure, younger people need low income housing but NYC’s seniors definitely need it too. These are the folks who’ve built this city and should be able to stay here. Cuomo really flounced on the question about a rent freeze. #NYCmayoraldebate #DREAMNYC #LowIncomeHousing
Look, we don’t need a 🐱 grabber in the White House and one in City Hall; that’s one reason I’m not ranking Cuomo. We need a mayor with integrity, not one who is running on ego and thought this would be an easy win. #NYCmayoraldebate #DREAMNYC
“People are leaving the city because they can’t afford to stay here.” — @zellnor.bsky.social Something I’ve considered because the NYC I grew up in seems as if it’s almost gone. B’way below 14th St. is a shell of itself. Flatbush, BedStuy and other nabes have lost their flavor … #NYCmayoraldebate
I’m screaming and clapping at this debate as if I’m watching a playoff game. #NYCmayoraldebate #ZohranForMayor
I haven’t been this excited about a mayoral race in NYC in a long time. I have to say there are a few really good AND qualified candidates. However, Zohran Mamdani is my #1. I will not be ranking Cuomo, nor should you. #NYCmayoraldebate
“Let’s win a New York you can afford.” — @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social #NYCmayoraldebate
You don’t have to put out all the fires. Focus on the ones you can handle.

The man had always been a scammer. He’s told people exactly who he is, yet many are remiss to believe him because he aligns with their main value … wh!te svpremacy.
Mark Cuban@mcuban.bsky.social · 2y agoJust have to say that the $Trump meme coin is a gift to all of us who are not fans of his. It’s just a matter of time until a lot of people lose money from this. I’m a crypto fan. This is not crypto any more than Madoff was just buying and selling shares of stock
If you can only perform one act of service today I suggest reading and sharing "Letter from a Birmingham Jail". Pay close attention to Martin Luther King Jr's view on white liberalism and how it is a detriment to Black freedom, as well as racial unity. #MLKDay www.africa.upenn.edu/Artic.../Let...
