    Hi, Clevelander here. I have no horse in this race, but thanks for making Mamdani go from being completely unheard of from me, to now a household name due to the Streisand effect.

    Thanks for letting me know who I’m voting for in 2028.

    So, NYC gets about $100B in federal funds annually. I wonder how much they pay in taxes to the federal government. I’d bet they pay more than they get.

    Insurrectionist traitors who should have been impeached, fired, and sent to federal prison don’t get to tell anyone how to behave. New York pays more into federal taxes than it receives, if Trump wants to kill Blue State programs he’s about to learn where the tax money comes from.

    That’s called fascism.

    Time for the wealthy blue states to break away.

    You don’t bite the hand that feeds.

    Any state or local gov that is cut off from federal funds without a legal basis shouldn’t have to pay federal taxes.
