The smartphone really revolutionized the waiting room. Oh I get 20 minutes to look at my phone? Don’t mind if I do. The only problem is sometimes when I’m looking at my phone at home my home starts to feel like a waiting room and I realize it is and I’m just waiting to die

The Blackstone Group is the largest private owner of rent-stabilized apartments in New York City, not small mom and pop landlords.

Valued at $137 billion (not including the $1.3 trillion in assets they control), Blackstone is headed by Stephen A. Schwarzman, whose total yearly compensation exceeds $1 billion.

The idea of the "mom and pop" landlord being priced out of business because of a rent freeze is a myth. Small independent landlords (owning 10 or fewer units) make up only 1.2% of the ownership of rent-stabilized units. Meanwhile large corporations own 87% of those units, with mega corporations like Blackstone Group (owning 1000 or more units) controlling 56% of the market.

Mega corporations like Blackstone are pushing the myth of the small independent landlord to hide the fact that they and other mega corporations control the vast majority of NYC rentals.

And honestly, fuck them.

Karl: Josh Gottheimer, a Democratic member of Congress, who says, “Many of us believe, as do I, if you’re a socialist, you are not a Democrat.” And in fact, they put out a manifesto today.

Mamdani: Sounds pretty socialist to me…. I'm not interested in writing a manifesto or frankly, in reading one. I'm interested in delivering. And that's exactly what we've been showing.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Karl: Republicans are going to make you the poster child for the Democratic Party.

Mamdani: Let them. We don’t have to ask ourselves what life looks like if a socialist wins. I won last November, and over the course of these last six months, what we’ve delivered for working people are the very things we were told were impossible.

We’ve delivered free child care for two-year-olds for the first time in New York City history. We’ve delivered tens of millions of dollars back to tenants who were taken advantage of by bad landlords. We’ve delivered 165,000 potholes being paved. And we’ve done all of these things while also delivering the lowest recorded crime in our city’s history.

That’s what it looks like to have democratic socialism. And what you’re seeing is that New Yorkers experienced this for six months and made the decision that they wanted to see more of it on the national stage as well.
