Amazing how dishonest the Democrats are.
Here's reality.
First and foremost, the bulk of this deficit was of Mamdani's own making. He blew up the budget by an unprecedented $15 billion dollars in new spending over last year. The largest single-year spending increase ever.
So right off the bat our fiscal crisis was exacerbated by Mamdani's insane spending demands.
Had he simply kept spending levels approximately where they were -- already a massive $110 billion dollars -- we could've avoided most of this crisis entirely.
Next, Mamdani didn't close the deficit through successful leadership or any kind of fiscal discipline. He didn't boost the New York economy and end up with a pile of money from booming businesses or new residents.
He got a multibillion dollar bailout from Albany and is raising taxes. That's the big accomplishment Democrats are bragging about here.
Higher taxes, and a bailout from upstate. That's success to Democrats.
The rest is accounting tricks courtesy of the pliant City Council finance committee, who have been busy 'finding' money by revising revenue estimates upward in order to fill in the gaps. No way that'll bite us in the future!
And lets not forget the tens of billions that this city wastes every single year, which are going completely untouched. Nonprofits, welfare for illegals, and political activism. Not just untouchable, but set to get fat increases.
That's the real story of the budget.
'Democrats Deliver' indeed.
I think it’s time we start calling a spade a spade.
The Left have a pedophilia problem.
Not only are the Dems going to Epstein island, but their woke policies and LGBTQ+ agenda are pro-pedophile.
Which side has drag show story time for kids? Which side sexualized our youth with their LGBTQ+ insanity? What do you think the “+” stands for? What’s a “minor attracted person”?
Which side left the border open and allowed human traffickers to operate? Which side denied the existence of the humanitarian crisis at the border? Which side tried to cancel the movie “Sound of Freedom”?
Which side let millions of rapists and criminals into our country? Which side is obstructing federal law enforcement from arresting/deporting foreign pedos and sex offenders? Which side lets these criminals loose on our streets?
Which side is Hollywood on? Which side is Harvey Weinstein on? Which side did Diddy campaign for? Remember NXIVM? Balenciaga?
Which side downplayed Biden repeatedly groping, sniffing, and biting children? Which side ignored Bill Clinton going to Epstein island 26+ times? Which side claimed the Podesta emails were a conspiracy theory?
The body of evidence is incontrovertible. Not only are Democrat elites engaged in pedophilia, but pedophilia thrives under the policies and ideology of the Left.
My 14-year-old daughter was just telling me about the sleepover she had with her cousins at my parent’s house and how, sleeping on the couch, she was awakened early by the sounds of my dad talking in the kitchen and my mom cooking sausage in her cast iron skillet for gravy.
“But I kind of liked it,” she admitted.
I know exactly what she’s talking about. I’ve slept on that same couch and laid there in the early morning hours just listening to the sounds of my parent’s home. Coffee brewing, Bible pages rustling, dishes clanking. The sounds and smells of a home that is like a gas station for souls.

my most boomer take is that being endlessly gentle with yourself all the time and never forcing yourself to do anything you don’t want to do isn’t self care it’s lazy and it’s bad for you
