8 Mods need to add one of these to the image files. I suspect it will become useful in the near future.

11 An NYC will be begging for US Taxpayer bailout $$$$ in 2 years like they did back in 1975

14 Not as stupid as we feared:

Poll finds a third of NYC Jews voted for Mamdani, while Cuomo dominated Jewish neighborhoods

16 Perfect space to fill with all the bad actors. Any pretense you can "win" it back with a vote is laughable. I am a little curious where all the election riggers fall on this one. Seems like we just accept this/these outcomes as normal, no one crying foul?

The best place to rig an outcome is where everyone expects it and this is a big win for bad guys, not ds. We figured unclejoe was picked, we saw his vp get picked, barryo was picked, ergo Mami
