All of my Jewish relatives are voting for Mamdani!!

Rob's avatar

I almost wish I lived in NYC just so I could 😂

Anastasia Pantsios's avatar

I'm glad I live in Cleveland Heights where either of our two mayoral candidates is acceptable and would probably do a good job. I still can't believe Cuomo had the gall to run. But then gall is the quantity he probably has the most of.

Rob's avatar

I’m Delaware, so blue politicians but not as outspoken as I wish they were.

Marlene Lerner-Bigley (CA)'s avatar

Rob, times they are a’changing!

diane finlayson's avatar

The tide is turning! All those predators need to be stopped

Marlene Lerner-Bigley (CA)'s avatar

Anastasia, it’s called EGO. Cuomo has plenty of that in spite of him being a sexual pervert! So glad Mamdani won.

diane finlayson's avatar

My daughter did! We just spoke and sobbed!

Patty's avatar

halligan needs to lose her law license because what she has done is against the code of ethics and what she did was an egregious act that the court will not consider acceptable and I bet she will be turned in to the Board.

Alastriona's avatar

I would say she should face prison time and fines too but Trump would just pardon her like does all the felons who aid him.

Elaine Lueras's avatar

Lawyers are licensed by the state they practice in. Perhaps, state charges could be applied instead of federal charges?

arne link's avatar

She's licensed in Florida, I believe. Good luck with that.

Patrice Erickson's avatar

Yeah Florida is my home state…after being gone for 30+ years I come back to a ruined state… DuhSantis is a Facist just like Trump Rick Scott, Putin,Netanyahu….A Bunch of Narcissistic Dictators.

Robert E Bruce's avatar

I agree, but they still need to be given a day in court. If trump then pardons them he's the scumbag. And that's another story.

peter's avatar

make the charge,delay it,until trump not in office,if its good for his offences to be delayed,then its for others!!then call them b4 court,sentence ,when they know missedout on pardon,that will teach them a hard lesson!!

Merry's avatar

Well he’s certainly had a “loose pen” when it comes to pardons!

“US President Donald Trump says he does not know who Changpeng Zhao is, despite pardoning the cryptocurrency multi-billionaire last month.”

“Zhao, who is also known as "CZ", pleaded guilty to enabling money laundering in 2023. He served four months in prison and agreed to step down as the chief executive of Binance, the crypto exchange he co-founded.

“His companies have partnered with firms linked to Trump on new digital-currency projects including Dominari Holdings, where his sons sit on the board of advisers and which is based in Trump Tower.“

And he claims he doesn't know what the autopen is! He pardoned 1600 J6er's with a handwritten signature? 🤣😂

Merry's avatar

Well, the one thing we certainly DO know about Trump is that if his lips are flapping, he’s lying!

Jean Conley's avatar

Thanks, Martha. I don't mean to insult blondes, but THAT one is an exception!!! Blondes are intelligent people--however, I don't know what the heck happened to HER!

Jean Conley's avatar

ESPECIALLY Blondi.

Anastasia Pantsios's avatar

I think that is in her future. She should talk to Rudy Guiliani!

C Bowlby's avatar

LoL, but not in the sunshine, hair dye runs!

Karen Brownfield's avatar

As are all of my Jewish friends.

Anastasia Pantsios's avatar

I guess he wants Jews to vote for an underhanded, lying, corrupt sleazebag like Cuomo because of course he does — he's also an underhanded, lying, corrupt sleazebag! I think Mamdani is overrated with impossible expectations as his starry-eyed Bernie Bro acolytes will discover quickly, but at least he's not an underhanded, lying, corrupt sleazebag — and he loves cats!

arne link's avatar

Exactly. He might do a decent job, who knows. Better to roll the dice for a new person than elect the corrupt lying sleazebag again.

C Bowlby's avatar

I bet liljonnyson got in trouble with rumpie for no answer, but he may get the boot anyway!

Pam Dundon's avatar

Good to know because there was just a guy from the Anti Defamation League on Morning Joe who went on and on about how Mamdani never reached out to them and his Jewish community is very worried about his election.

Carol Staats's avatar

Arrest him already enough of this lawlessness!!!

Lois Lyon's avatar

THIS !!!! ☝️☝️☝️

Robert Reich may be right again, that it’ll be air traffic controllers who force an end to the shutdown. Right before Thanksgiving, the heaviest travel period of the year, and everyone will blame the Republicans.

Sharon Bouchard's avatar

Do it right as Congress ends for holiday recess, and watch the politicians get stuck in DC.

bLUEduRham's avatar

They seem always to be on recess.

Linda Hendrick's avatar

They haven’t been in D.C. for weeks. So they won’t NEED to fly home for Thanksgiving! Too bad they can’t get a little disruption in their lives rather than causing it all!

CKaye 🌞's avatar

I watched videos of the 3 hour lines and cancelled flights in Houston.

arne link's avatar

I hope that the air traffic controllers will strike before Thanksgiving.

Jean Conley's avatar

....and it will be all the republiCRAPS' fault. The least they could do is pay the air traffic controllers. They're too selfish to do that.

Jean Conley's avatar

So did I--and not just in THAT city.

Elaine Lueras's avatar

SOOOOO...WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO, JUDGES???

Jean Conley's avatar

Nothing because they worship Dump. He's their god.

CMM's avatar
Nov 5Edited

They don’t all worship him. I think the majority probably ridicule him behind closed doors. However, they (majority) do worship the Federalist Society, the Heritage Foundation, and Project 2025. They also (some of them) line their pockets and, consequently, their insatiable greed has obliterated their Constitutional oaths. 🤬

Jean Conley's avatar

I agree. I wish the rrepubliCRAPS who don't (more "centered") would speak up. I voted republican many times years ago, but most likely won't ever again.

CMM's avatar

I’ve been an Independent before, so I can appreciate what you’ve said. I vote Blue all the way now just because I’ve lost hope in a balanced bipartisan Congress. But I have issues with the Dems’ approach and for the first time, I think I might move more left to the Bernie, AOC, Zohran camp! They are driven by so much more than greed. I think I’m more of a Democratic Socialist.

Billionaires need to pay more taxes and not benefit from exploiting the working class any longer. This shouldn’t be an extreme position. Sigh!

Jean Conley's avatar

I feel the same way, CMM. **Sigh** on my part, too. Thanks for your reply.

Patty's avatar

They need to pay air traffic controllers and stop paying Congress and

senate. They aren’t working anyway so why should they even get a check.

Sharon Bouchard's avatar

Or Healthcare. They should get a plan like the rest of us and have to deal with bs deductibles and copays.

Punkette's avatar

Yes! Most of the Dems are not taking a paycheck during the shutdown.

Jean Conley's avatar

Sure wish that could be done.

Nupe287's avatar

Is trump serious? He is has always been unfit to be president including his first term.

Walter Wisniewski's avatar

He’s a serious, serial liar. Even dementia can’t explain his consistent 100% record of misstating his opinion polls, the abject failure of his electoral promises and his savagely sadistic personal notes.

Anastasia Pantsios's avatar

Dementia x being a horrible person since birth = catastrophe.

Hall's avatar

Appears to be a serial killer as well.

Ann's avatar

Hope he spirals to Mars with his buddy fELON MUSK!

Thomas Wilson's avatar

And run out of gas on the way

Robin's avatar

would be the reddest meanest planet,

but the fresh air over planet Earth would be fantastic.

musk & bezos and their phallic rockets could remove the 'debris' blocking the Constitution

Jean Conley's avatar

Ann--Mars is WAY too close!!!!!!!!!!

Kat Martin's avatar

I made damn sure to vote in person and by paper ballot, so that bastard has no claim on any vote I made.

I could 💩 a better president's avatar

Until they say it’s illegible. Remember the hanging chads? Wouldn’t be surprised if they have a similar issue.

Kat Martin's avatar

I do remember. I did everything I could to prevent them from cheating their way through the election.

Aniko Banyas's avatar

Did Trump repurpose the SNAP reservoir money into his pockets and spent it on something else?? SHOW US THE MONEY!! FEED TO HUNGRY PEOPLE!!!

Ralph Hensley's avatar

Most likely towards his golden throne room

Patricia McGrath's avatar

Mike Johnson is laughable.

SeekingReason's avatar

Mike Johnson is an extremely creepy religious lunatic! Not qualified for office. Better suited to preach to his phony “believers” in times of pre-Science

Marty Baldwin's avatar

Mike Johnson is a LIAR and he’s certainly not a Christian. He’s a trump weakling.

Joan MacLeod's avatar

How people still support this maniac is beyond me!

AnneHG's avatar

"A hungry man is an angry man." - Bob Marley

Rob's avatar

And yet there are still way too many racists that support him

Dconcerned's avatar

Thanks for always being on top of the truthful news events. And yes Wildgrain is delicious!

Anne's avatar

Definitely the incoherent rants of an old dementing man realizing he's about to lose in all elections today. Hopefully that Judge orders the court bailiff to go and arrest DT for disobeying court orders, just as any other citizen would face.

Ralph Hensley's avatar

That's why US federal courts have the US Marshall Service even if the service is under the DOJ

Carene Hobson's avatar

Word salad of trigger words

Carene Hobson's avatar

Trump's speech was a word salad of trigger words. MAGA has been brainwashed and they have sayings and words used to fire up their base

Janet Wilson's avatar

Agreed on that. What I would give to see the bits they edited out!
