Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of New York City on Tuesday, capping a stunning ascent for the 34-year-old state lawmaker, who was set to become the city’s most liberal mayor in generations.
In a victory for the Democratic party’s progressive wing, Mamdani defeated former Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa. Mamdani must now navigate the unending demands of America’s biggest city and deliver on ambitious — skeptics say unrealistic — campaign promises.
With the victory, the democratic socialist will etch his place in history as the city’s first Muslim mayor, the first of South Asian heritage and the first born in Africa. He will also become the city’s youngest mayor in more than a century when he takes office on Jan. 1.
Maybe if we literally ate some of those billionaires it might help. Is the leader of our church Luigi Mangione freed from his unlawful religious persecution yet? And where are the Epstein files?
Luigi is innocent. The person who actually did it did more than anyone can reasonably act and I hope he lives a long and quiet life.
And the Epstien files… fuck me, I knew some criminals go to incredible lengths to cover their misdeeds but the fact that he is tearing down an entire country from the world stage in such a brazen manner is incredible.
