What’s worse is that some will undoubtedly excuse her actions, or even applaud her.

Good answer.

It’s what I would advise my client to say, every time.
The NYT publishes a wide array of opinions to capture voices from across the spectrum.

What are you getting offended by an opinion piece?
I always liked Carville. LSU grad.

What I don't understand. Why is Washington not withholding federal funds after this announcement? They're openly stating that they're giving money to illegals.
Why does Trump or anyone outside of NYC care? This is city funds. Let their political process decide it.

No need to get in the gutter with local politics. We have larger national issues the executive should be worrying about.

Besides, Trump invited Mamdani to the WH. I think he has a soft spot for NYC even if he won’t admit it.

Actual laws being enforced
You mean like:

1. Defiance of Immigration Court Orders

2. Impoundment Control Act Violations (Funding Withholds/Freezes)

3. Protecting Americans From Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act (TikTok Ban)

4. Antidiscrimination and Civil Rights Laws

5. Voting and Election Laws

Trump has refused to enforce all of these.
Under the principles of the escalation of force, police can respond with deadly force only in response to a deadly threat. In other words, the response must be proportional.

Also, if you are able to deescalate a situation you must.

It appears disengaging was possible here, and I’m glad no one was injured.

Yea but don’t forget money isn’t the only form of currency when it comes to global trade. Having resources and manufacturing potential mitigates less cash.

For example, if you own a house you own value, even if it’s not liquid.

I think 3 things (as an outside observer):

1. Articulate and looks the part.

2. Well-connected and Governor of the largest state.

3. Trump fatigue (see 2020 election).

These are 3 main reasons why he definitely has a chance to defeat Trump’s chosen successor, whether that’s Vance or Rubio.
I don’t support violence on any side.

re: Ukraine trying to get nukes?

Posted by RFK on 2/24/26 at 11:44 am to
We should have them tactical nukes last year when it became (painfully) obvious that Putin has no real desire for peace.

Low yield but pack a big punch.

Russia contaminated Ukraine with endless radiation in 1986 at Chernobyl. Remember?
I’m not saying I support the protestors but the last thing we need is a “Boston Massacre” Part Deux.

Best for police to just disengage and remember they exist to serve - this also means diffusing a situation when able.

The mayor could make an appearance denouncing this behavior. That opportunity was missed with the Minneapolis mayor, I think.

Trump and Meloni are very close. Crush close
This is simply inaccurate. Trump has completely passed that relationship off to the ambassador.

re: How would a war with China look?

There are plenty of unclassified war games on this exact scenario. Some have us winning, some have them winning.

But all of them share a few certainties:

1. The U.S. will lose multiple aircraft carriers.

2. The U.S. will run out of conventional munitions in approximately 45-60 days, increasing the chance we resort to tactical nuclear weapons.

3. The U.S. will need at least 2 years to restart our defense industrial base. In the meantime, tens of thousands of Americans will be killed in the Pacific.
This is accurate.

You don’t have a “record” until convicted of a crime in a court of law based on competent evidence.

Many here would love for ICE to be “judge, jury, and executioner.”

The Constitution doesn’t work that way, I’m afraid.
Good for them.

People won’t admit/realize this but Kamala had a similar plan to counter cartels. They shot their wad after years of premature U.S. deaths and the opioid crisis. Covid didn’t help either. The American public is fed up.

The tipping point has been reached, regardless of who’s in office. I don’t mind if Trump gets the credit because you never know. But the tipping point was reached about a year ago if you know what I mean.

This sounds weird to care about this. Higher education should be about actually making an impact, not a profit.

This is written by someone who obviously has never had skin in the business game (that they realize).

This will only be passed down to 1) consumers in the form of higher prices and 2) average workers (probably like you) who will be laid off to compensate.
