Mamdani's preliminary budget proposal, which he introduced earlier this week, includes a $29 million cut to the city's three major library systems. The proposal represents a reversal of one of his campaign promises and is another example of how the new mayor is backtracking on policy commitments as he faces financial and political pressure. The mayor on Wednesday announced he would resume homeless encampment sweeps, despite his earlier pledges to end the practice.

Told you all he was fake. I love being right but it’s always about such terrible things.

DSA fails again. But not a surprise considering they exist to tail the Democrats.

No wonder Trump loved him after meeting with him. They probably both talked up how they fooled the workers with populist rhetoric and how much smarter they were than common people.
