Because the folks you handed the country to are doing such an awesome job right? Please sir, your politics is a mess. You are a genius, but if you cannot summon yourself to be a good person perhaps you can strive to at least be a better person. This is no longer about political affiliation, its about fiscal responsibility, country moral, workers efforts equal to compensation, civil rights, citizens rights, your rights and your dreams along with those of 340.1 million people. This problem is complex and it will take Republicans and Democrats to fix it... lets focus on the candidate and not the party.

Mr. Macron, the so-called “two-state solution” is not a path to peace — it’s a path to division, instability, and the legitimization of decades of antisemitic violence against the Jewish people. It rewards those who have rejected every peace offer, funded terrorism, and openly called for Israel’s destruction. History has shown that each concession leads to more attacks, not peace. A “Palestinian state” under current leadership would be another terror base, not a partner for coexistence. True peace will only come when the world stops pressuring Israel to carve up its own land and instead demands that those who seek its destruction lay down their weapons, end incitement, and accept Israel’s right to exist — fully and without compromise.

Zohran, spare us the poetry. You talk about “glorious complexity” while pushing policies that will destroy charter schools — one of the few beacons of hope for Black and Brown students. Affordability won’t mean much when you gut the only education lifelines these kids have, and taxing billionaires won’t fix decades of systemic failure. That’s not fighting authoritarianism — that’s enforcing educational poverty.

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

Taxing billionaires will not magically fix decades of a broken system thats been corrupted by people like you. Let's talk education policy...Elizabeth, call it what it is — Zohran Mamdani will destroy charter schools, ripping away one of the only beacons of hope for Black and Brown students trapped in a failing public system. All it will do is kill opportunity for kids who can’t afford your ivory tower politics while keeping them trapped in schools that fail them year after year. What do you have to say about that?!

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

Your plan to block charter school expansion, ban co-location, and target existing charters is an attack on opportunity for NYC’s most vulnerable kids — especially Black and Latino students in underserved communities.

Charter schools work. They outperform district schools, offer extended learning time, and give families real choices. Over 44,000 students are stuck on waitlists, hoping for a shot at a better future. Your proposal would slam that door shut.

We won’t let that happen. Parents, educators, and community leaders are ready to stand together and fight for every child’s right to a great education — in the courts, in the legislature, and in the streets.

NYC kids deserve more opportunities, not fewer. Drop this harmful policy and stand with families, not against them.

@ZohranKMamdani @EspaillatNY Celebrating Dominican pride means honoring the future of our community. Eliminating or restricting charter schools will rob thousands of Latino children in NYC of pathways to academic success. Our kids deserve more opportunities, not fewer. #SchoolChoice #CharterSchools

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

@ZohranKMamdani @ewarren Glad you’re inspired, but New York’s kids need more than political conversations — they need access to great schools now. Blocking charter expansion traps thousands on waitlists & keeps families from real options. That’s not equity, it’s a setback. #SchoolChoice #CharterSchools

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

@BilldeBlasio @andrewcuomo @ZohranKMamdani You were a terrible mayor. Shut your mouth and go away. You are corrupt and dishonest just like Mamdani

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

You will lose your seat. You are overweight, lazy, sleeping in the middle of hearings, pooping on yourself in public and pocketing money from investments and connections. Just being your incompetent self. Your hope is to die in the seat and hand it over to your son. You need to go now!!!

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

So you would rather have a socialist whom cries out for globalizing the destruction of Israel and the destruction of NEW YORK CITY ? You would rather have a communist that wants to destroy Charter Schools? You would rather have a liar whom lives like a rich man like you do and betrays the poor with promises ? @MeghanMcCain wake the fuck up, stop being the right woke!!!

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

@ZohranKMamdani Mamdani’s campaign cashes checks from both party elites and everyday donors — and calls it a movement. Endorsements from the Democratic establishment don’t look like change, they look like the same old game. #NYCPolitics #FollowTheMoney

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

Letitia James has turned the NY AG’s office into her personal political weapon — chasing headlines, protecting her allies, and ignoring the real crises hurting New Yorkers. Corruption in plain sight. NY deserves better than a partisan hack running our justice system. #NYPolitics #Corruption

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

When it comes to education policy, New York City stands at a crossroads. On one path lies innovation, choice, and opportunity — a system that recognizes every child’s right to a high-quality education, regardless of their ZIP code. On the other path lies stagnation, bureaucracy, and the shuttering of proven models of success.

Zohran Mamdani has made it clear which path he intends to take. His education platform calls for halting all expansion of charter schools, banning their co-location in Department of Education (DOE) buildings, and launching what he calls a “comprehensive audit” of their funding. To some, this might sound like sensible oversight. In reality, it’s a declaration of war on one of the few parts of New York’s public education system that is consistently delivering results for the city’s most underserved children.

Charter Schools: A Proven Pathway to Success
Charter schools are not private schools. They are publicly funded, tuition-free schools that operate with greater autonomy than traditional district schools. That autonomy allows them to innovate in areas like curriculum design, teacher recruitment, and student support services. In return, they are held to high accountability standards — and if they fail to deliver results, they can be closed.

The results speak for themselves. According to the New York State Education Department’s own data, NYC charter school students — the majority of whom are Black, Latino, and from low-income households — regularly outperform their peers in traditional district schools in English and math proficiency. Many charters also offer longer school days, Saturday classes, and summer learning programs, providing additional hours of instruction that directly translate into academic gains.

Far from being “exclusive,” as some critics claim, charter schools serve a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students than the citywide average. For many families in neighborhoods where local district schools are chronically underperforming, a charter seat represents a lifeline.

Halting Expansion: Closing Doors for Thousands
Mamdani’s pledge to block any state-mandated expansion of charter schools is not a neutral policy choice — it’s an act that would leave thousands of children on waiting lists with nowhere to go. Demand for charter seats in New York City far outstrips supply. In some neighborhoods, the number of applicants is more than double the number of available spots.

When a parent chooses a charter school, it’s because they believe it offers a better shot at success for their child — and the data often backs them up. Mamdani’s stance tells these parents that their choices don’t matter, and that their children’s futures can be sacrificed to satisfy political alliances with anti-charter activists and union leadership.

The Co-location Controversy: Politics Over Practicality
One of Mamdani’s most extreme proposals is his opposition to the co-location of charter schools in DOE buildings. Co-location allows charters to use unused or underutilized public school space — a common-sense practice in a city where real estate is scarce and prohibitively expensive.

The truth is, many DOE buildings have significant unused capacity, particularly in areas where public school enrollment has dropped in recent years. By banning co-location, Mamdani would force charters to lease private space at exorbitant cost, draining resources away from classrooms, teachers, and student programs.

In practice, this means fewer resources for students, not more. It’s hard to see how such a policy serves the public interest — unless the true goal is to make operating a charter so financially burdensome that it becomes unsustainable.

The Funding Audit: Oversight or Political Weapon?
Transparency in education spending is important, and every public school — district or charter — should be accountable for how it uses taxpayer money. But Mamdani’s proposed “comprehensive audit” singles out charter schools in a way that is transparently political.
Charters are already subject to rigorous financial and academic oversight by the state. Audits are nothing new for them. By framing his proposal as if charters are siphoning money from traditional schools, Mamdani feeds into a false and divisive narrative. The reality is that both charters and district schools are publicly funded to educate public school children. The problem in NYC’s education system is not that charters exist — it’s that bureaucratic waste and mismanagement consume far too many of the dollars intended for classrooms.

If Mamdani were serious about fiscal accountability, he’d apply the same level of scrutiny to the DOE’s central office, which consumes billions annually with little direct connection to improved student outcomes.

Ignoring Parents and Students
Perhaps the most troubling aspect of Mamdani’s anti-charter platform is how little regard it shows for the voices of parents and students. The demand for charter schools is not driven by billionaires or political operatives — it’s driven by mothers, fathers, and guardians desperate for a better future for their children.

These parents are not asking for political ideology. They are asking for results. They are asking for safe schools, effective teachers, high expectations, and the chance for their children to graduate with real options in life. Many have watched their children thrive in charter schools after struggling in the traditional system. Mamdani’s policies would take that away.

Equity Through Excellence, Not Restriction

If equity is the goal — and it should be — the way to achieve it is not to restrict successful schools, but to learn from them. High-performing charters have lessons to offer the entire system:
Strong teacher support and accountability.

Extended learning time for students who need it.
A culture of high expectations paired with individualized support.

Rather than walling off these successes, city leadership should be finding ways to replicate them in district schools while also expanding charter access to meet demand.

The Bigger Risk: Widening the Achievement Gap
New York City already faces significant disparities in educational outcomes based on race, income, and neighborhood. Restricting charters will not close these gaps — it will widen them. Wealthy families will continue to send their children to private schools or move to districts with better public options. It is low-income families, with fewer alternatives, who will pay the price for Mamdani’s policies.

When a child’s only “choice” is the local district school that has failed generations before them, that’s not equity. That’s entrenchment of inequality.

Education First, Politics Last
Zohran Mamdani’s agenda on charter schools is not about improving education — it’s about protecting a political narrative. It sacrifices proven success stories to ideological purity, and in doing so, it puts the futures of thousands of New York City children at risk.
We need leaders who see education not as a battlefield for political points, but as a sacred responsibility to the next generation. That means embracing what works, fixing what doesn’t, and giving families real choices.

The war on charter schools is a war on students. And New Yorkers — parents, educators, and community members alike — must stand together to say: Not in our city. Not to our kids.

Ever wonder where the tomato on your #July4th burger comes from? These Central Valley tomato harvesters spend hours bent over under the sun harvesting. On an average they lift around 170 buckets a day. Each bucket weighs 25 lbs. It’s exhausting, physical labor. #WeFeedYou

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

@MeghanMcCain Amen. He lived in privilege his whole life and now that he is on his own he wants the government to pick up the tab and like him there are millions.

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

Zohran Mamdani’s recent political maneuvers suggest a troubling pattern: the instrumentalization of the LGBTQ+ community as both a pawn and a scapegoat in his broader ideological crusade. While claiming to champion inclusion and equity, Mamdani has repeatedly sidelined the voices of actual LGBTQ+ individuals—especially those who wear the NYPD uniform—when they do not align with his narrow political narrative.

By excluding LGBTQ+ police officers from Pride events and publicly backing this exclusion, he sends a clear message: identity is only valid when it serves his agenda. This isn’t advocacy—it’s opportunism. Mamdani is not uplifting the gay community; he is exploiting it, turning it into a tool for social division and political gain.

We must reject this kind of selective solidarity. Real inclusion doesn’t pick and choose who counts based on their profession, faith, or political alignment. The LGBTQ+ community is not a prop to be used during election cycles or a scapegoat when policy debates get tough. It’s time to call out performative progressivism masquerading as leadership.

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

This isn’t Islamophobia—it’s accountability.

Sen. Gillibrand’s concern about Zohran Mamdani isn’t rooted in hate—it’s rooted in facts. He defends extremist slogans like “globalize the intifada,” refuses to condemn Hamas by name, and downplays the trauma of October 7th. That’s not advocating for justice—that’s normalizing extremism.

Criticizing a politician’s radical worldview is not a slander. And calling out dangerous rhetoric isn’t indifference to Palestinian suffering—it’s a demand for moral clarity in the face of terrorism.

Stop hiding behind identity politics to shield dangerous ideas from scrutiny. New Yorkers—and Americans—deserve better.

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

To the Members of the NYPD and GOALny,

As a gay man and a lifelong New Yorker, I want to express my full support, respect, and solidarity with you.

It is deeply disappointing and frankly disgraceful that LGBTQ+ members of the NYPD—who put on the uniform, protect our communities, and stand proud in both their service and their identity—have been excluded from marching in uniform at Pride.

Pride was born out of protest, yes—but it has grown into something more powerful: visibility, unity, and inclusion. That should never mean selective inclusion. To tell LGBTQ+ officers that they are welcome to keep us safe but not welcome to march openly and proudly in their uniform is not justice—it is hypocrisy.

You are not just part of this city—you are part of this community. You are Pride. Every LGBTQ+ officer who wears the badge with honor and continues to serve, even in the face of rejection, deserves to be celebrated—not pushed aside.

I see you. I appreciate you. And I will always stand with you.

With pride,
Gleidson Hoffmann
A Proud Gay New Yorker

[Gleidson Hoffmann @GleidsonHo6297]

Senator, what makes no sense is whining about federal aid while red states like Florida take more in federal dollars than they contribute. California subsidizes states like yours—it doesn’t "exploit" the system, it funds it.

If you want to talk responsibility, start by explaining why Florida ranks among the lowest in healthcare access, education funding, and worker protections—while relying on blue states to bail it out.

You don’t want fairness. You want a handout without accountability.
