He isn’t mayor until January 1st… and I would argue doing all of that is green and what he is doing is actually yellow by meeting with Trump.

You do realize he is not actually the mayor until January 1st, right?

Mamdani appointed Lina Khan, like guyysss just hear him out a little🥺🤏

Interesting!! I shall be doing lots of research on this, haven’t heard of him before so idk yet, thank youu

The NYC mayor is literally just 1 dude vs the strong, resilient, highly cohesive and unified large community of the NYPD. 1 person vs 33,000+ NYPD members. That is literally a whole city amount of people within the city. An entire unique culture of its own you have to deeply understand first before arrogantly and hastily poking it with a stick. It’s a frat house man-child city. Research how de Blasio’s attempt went if you haven’t yet. It’s not that the mayor is powerless on paper, it’s that the NYPD can easily act independently, collectively, and visibly in ways a mayor cannot realistically punish. That’s real power. Even when they enact reform statues or disciplinary frameworks, the NYPD is still controlled by the Police Commissioner and union contracts yes… but de Blasio pushing chokehold bans and enhanced transparency were inconsistent and lenient because cultural resistance within the PD diluted and slowed policy implementation. Reforms passed by democratically elected leaders are frequently nullified by internal bureaucracy. It functions more like an autonomous administrative state. In 2014-2015, the PD dropped arrests for low-level offenses by 90% for weeks, ignored summonses, and temporarily stopped enforcing quality-of-life laws just because they disliked something the mayor said. Not even because of a policy change or contract dispute, petty stuff. An entire PD rebelled, and the mayor couldn’t punish them, fire them, or stop them. If ANY other city agency did that…heads would roll but NYPD shrugged. The incident in 2020 when they leaked his daughter’s personal information on the internet after she got arrested in the BLM protests…. They physically turned their back to the mayor at a funeral, etcetcetc. LAPD has a similar chokehold on their city. The NYPD is more powerful that NYC mayors because it openly defies elected leadership, humiliates the mayor publicly, retaliates personal family members of the mayor, and weaponizes unions without consequences. etcetcetc…come on now! This is nearly known worldwide that the NYPD is a different beast.

“and most recently we’re talking about a mother and her two children, how this has very little to do with what that is.” - Mamdani Can you make arguments for the previous points I made too? Just making sure I’m not falling for a fraud

The Bill Clinton emails were literally last week😂

Yeah, if I was going to pander to Trump, I’d also say I don’t like criminals. That’s an easy and obvious way to do it. No one is arguing about whether or not criminals are good or bad and if nothing should be done about it. That’s the only thing anyone can agree on if there was anything to agree on with ICE. He’s exposing to Trump that ICE is not targeting crime at all like supposedly intended. “The concerns that many New Yorkers have are around the enforcement of immigration laws on New Yorkers across the five boroughs, and most recently we’re talking about a mother and her two children, how this has very little to do with what that is.”

???? The two also discussed potential ICE raids and immigration crackdowns in New York City, an issue they sharply disagree on. “I think we're going to work them out,” Trump said of those potential issues over immigration. “What we did is we discussed crime more than ICE, per se, we discussed crime, and he doesn't want to see crime, and I don't want to see crime, and I have very little doubt that we're not going to get along on that issue.” https://queenseagle.com/all/2025/11/21/queens-men-meet

Mamdani was able to say there is a genocide in Gaza in the White House next to Trump…even Bernie greatly avoids using the G word. Get out of here on the ICE comment too lol. Where did you even source that one? From the same article you posted… “I'm going to put an end to that by fully funding the CCRB so that no longer are we having to question whether we can follow through on a case because we don't have the requisite amount of money." How is that not an actionable step forward? The NYPD is miles more powerful than the NYC mayor. It is not your local average PD which already sucks. Look at DeBlasio’s attempt… Mamdani is going head-to-head with extreme and deep-rooted opposing values in that city. He got Trump wrapped around his finger with just the first step in the WH, not the other way around. Doesn’t mean at all that he’s bffs with Trump now.

The media are asking Trump if he is standing next to a “jihadist”, and Mamdani if he thinks Trump is a fascist to incite both to get at each others throats…terrible questions of course. They both seem to have some understanding not to play into that media game at least for that meeting. Do you think Mamdani is being fake overall, or just acting in accordance with “yellow stage” politics? It seemed like Trump genuinely liked Mamdani to me, and Mamdani artfully holding back his tongue for more effective moments.

@Inliytened1 I don’t really know Kirk that much to be honest, so what about Kirk makes those men on the HB pier relate to him so much?

@Inliytened1 No, I just live 15mins from HB😂 they post up a lot like this here when there’s a relatable event to them

@Inliytened1 Is this not unstable and extreme? https://www.instagram.com/reel/DOewj1ZAOIn/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==
