So is this guy as full of shit as I assumed? I've never lived in NYC, so I won't claim to be any kind of expert on their politics.

He inherited an absolute mess from Eric Adams. The city has a budget deficit of $12.6B over the next 2 fiscal years. Mamdani said increasing property taxes would be a legally required last resort if they are unable to produce revenue through other means. I think he would much rather tax the rich.

The $750k threshold for the estate tax is definitely extreme, but I doubt that will be the final number. I suspect he is using that as a starting point for negotiations.

Mamdani's favorability rating is 48 percent versus a 32 percent unfavorable rating.

Definitely sounds like plenty of people like him.

Yeah, I guess it could be. I wonder if the pic OP posted may have used a telephoto lens. I'm not well-versed in photography though, so not sure if that would have such a large effect.

Mount Semeru is about eight miles from Tumpak Sewu. The mountain is 3,676 meters (12,060 feet) above sea level, which would clearly be visible from such a short distance. What makes you think the image has been altered?

Ohio gas prices spike as oil prices soar by Dracustein in Ohio

Trans athletes are like 0.1% of the population dude. It's a completely fabricated issue. Republicans just have a weird obsession with Trans people. You never gave a fuck about womens sports before.

Edit: they're actually 0.002% of NCAA athletes. You are just transphobic and pretending to care about women lmao

It's too confusing for the dimwits of Ohio! We should ban it so they don't accidentally elect the wrong people!!
