The Issue: Mayor Mamdani's new budget plan for New York City with a potential property-tax hike.
Remember when the mayor ran, he pretended he was only going to tax the "rich?"
Only a socialist could look at you with a straight face and say, "I'm going to raise property taxes 9.5%, but that it's not going to be passed along to the renter or final consumer."
Socialism always self-implodes because it runs counter to human nature.
New York City is the new national home of violent antisemitism, business haters, the elevation of identity over merit, the expenditure of billions on free services for illegal immigrants (but not on housing for mentally-ill citizens) and subway killing grounds.
And now Gov. Hochul is spending $1.5 billion of state taxpayer money to advance the mendacious agenda of an avowed communist.
Can we petition the EPA to ban whatever these guys and gals are drinking?
They're both well on their way to ruining my former home, New York.
Hochul tries to appease everyone as she looks to hold onto power. And Mamdani is a true socialist, though socialism has never worked anywhere in the world where it's been tried.
But the real culprit is New York's electorate.
They're responsible for the cesspool that New York is rapidly becoming.
Mamdani's on a quest to break the rich. It's bad enough that he hates Jews, whites and law enforcement, but to go after big businesses that provide jobs for New Yorkers is seriously wrong.
This socialist communist is bad for the city and the people will find out his true radical agenda the hard way.
I may not live in New York City, but I do know what a sniveling yellow traitor and coward is and this person is one.
Stop giving billions in freebies to illegal immigrants.
"I Am -- Somebody," the popular self-proclaim poem, was repetitiously stated by the Rev. Jesse Jackson himself amongst public crowds ("Jesse Jackson dies," Feb. 18).
An apprentice of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Jackson upheld the torch of civil rights set by King in such a unique manner.
It is the saddest day; we've lost the Rev. Jesse Jackson at the age of 84.
He fought for civil rights and created the Rainbow Coalition.
He was not a perfect man but did his best.
Jackson dedicated himself to respecting all men and women and all nationalities.
He stood for the beliefs of the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., learned from him and tried to realize all the ideals that King held high.
I am most sad about his passing.
As Jackson said, "Keep hope alive, keep hope alive, keep hope alive." May God bless the Rev. Jesse Jackson for going the extra mile for mankind.
Jesse Jackson was a shameless opportunist, a race-baiting, antisemitic, self-promoting poverty pimp.
His stock in trade was to blackmail and guilt white America into embracing his DEI program long before it had that name.
