"I think for far too long we've tried not to lose, as opposed to figuring out how to win."
-- Zohran Mamdani, speaking about the Democratic party and his bold proposals, in the October 20, 2025, issue of The New Yorker. My, I like him. He's the future. I want to see more politicians like him (and AOC, Michelle Wu, Katie Wilson, Maxwell Frost, etc.).

"Farmers in the rural region near the New York border say those stories are not unique.
'The whole thing is screwed up,' said John Painter, a three-time Trump voter who runs an organic dairy farm in Westfield. 'We need people to do the jobs Americans are too spoiled to do.'”

Yes! A million times yes! This passage is from an interview with Zohran Mamdani in the September 2025 issue of The Nation. I've been making a similar point for ages. Somewhere along the line, "efficiency" became associated with the right. It should be identified with the left. There is nothing inherently conservative about efficiency. Mamdani beautiful explains why. #Politics #Economy#Economics#Democrats #Democracy #NewYork#ZohranMamdani #US #USpol

"Trump is a son of Queens, a Northerner through-and-through. There’s no public record telling us when the light of the angel Jefferson Davis fell upon him and he knew that the Confederacy’s cause was his own, but it sure is now."
And not just Trump: scads of Northerners whose ancestors fought the Confederacy have now jumped on the Confederate train after the double election of the first Black president.

Stephen Robinson and Paul Waldman comment on Trump's curious attachment to a Confederacy to which he has no ties as a dyed-in-the-wool sool of Queens, New York, with recent immigrant ancestors:
"Trump’s fondness for the Confederacy has little to do with southern 'heritage' — he’s a native New Yorker who never lived below the Mason-Dixie line until he became a permanent Mar-a-Lago resident in 2020."

"Let me tell you a little secret: most New York Jews really like New York’s diversity. We like that it attracts the Mamdanis of the world. We like sharing it with people of lots of different backgrounds. That’s what makes us feel safe and happy here. Especially when they are such a mensch like him: a nice college boy, his parents are professors, he went to Bronx Science, and to a liberal arts school."

"Wolf [Glosser, Stephen Miller's 2-g-grandfather] arrived at Ellis Island on January 7, 1903. He peddled bananas in New York City and changed his name to Louis. 'One of the main things everybody wanted to do when they came to America was become Americanized,' recalled his grandson Izzy.
All their lives, the Glossers would strive to help the poor and persecuted."

"Stephen Miller is an immigration hypocrite. I know vecause I’m his uncle.
If my nephew’s ideas on immigration had been in force a century ago, our family would have been wiped out.
Let me tell you a story about Stephen Miller and chain migration."
~ David S. Glosser

As the odious Stephen Miller tries to convince heartland Americans that immigrants and diversity have made New York City the enemy, it's worth remembering that he descends directly from Jewish ancestors who fled persecution and poverty for that very city.
Jean Guerrero tells the story in her book Hatemonger, excerpted at the link below.

"Fox News may present an endless stream of anti-urban fear-mongering to its viewers while it lionizes the allegedly 'real' Americans who live in rural America, but it isn’t not going to relocate its studios to rural North Dakota. Nor are the Wall Street titans going to leave the city, even if (heaven forfend) they have to pay a bit more in taxes. They will, however, keep whining."

"I’m sorry, but you are gonna have a hard time convincing liberal educated upper-middle-class Jews not to like a college-educated, left-leaning immigrant—and one who tried to make a career in the arts?! Forget about it. The guy is practically Jewish!"
