All these figures are cute but what are they actually taking home and what are the expenses. Saying this group makes 99k sounds persuasive but without context it's a whole lot of nothing. That concept comes more into focus the lower the tax bracket.
What are they taking home? Well given more than half of workers will make $135K base by 2027 that’s $7500-8000 a month before OT, night differentials, and longevity increments.

Y’all thought garbage men were broke.

Dude just won the nomination and republicans are acting like the country is over. fukk are they so scared for?

I honestly dont know...:pachaha: I think he represents a shift in politics that he's is literally a 3rd party true independant. an actual wildcard that upsets the established order that's probably why they are freaking out.




They need new talking points now that the Iran bombing was revealed to be a failure.

Eric Adams thought of himself as the future of the Democratic Party when he won 4 years ago. We see how that turned out. :laugh:
NYC is a different place from the rest of the country.

They're not scared.....just setting up their base believe to a new boogeyman is the face of Democrats.



Republicans do well in terms of setting the narrative and what are the hot topics the 'masses' should be water cooler talking about.

With Cubans down in Miami, for 3 decades plus, thru various means (mostly Latin radio) Republicans have gotten Cubans to believe any Democrat is Fidel Castro trying to bring Communism / Socialism.

Transgenders make up a minuscule part of the population, yet Republicans find a way everytime to force the Democrats into a corner and make it seem like a main talking for Dems.

Exactly, they specialize in this kind of political branding

Is he a case of a far left swing after Republican victories in 2024? Could be a harbinger to 2026 midterms.

The cognitive dissonance around economic policy which fuels the obedience to establishment dem candidates by older blacks is truly incredible.… the literal people that have been watching you get priced out of your existence still somehow have a stranglehold over your voting allegiance:dead:my granny be on this same shyt.…all I can do is smh
Yeah. And the damage they've done unwittingly we've been left to wallow in. God bless em though

1. He hasn’t won yet.
2. These policies haven’t been implemented
Stop it.

He won a blue primary, in a Democrat stronghold state, against the incumbent Democratic politician who was backed by establishment Democrats.

One thing rethugs have over dems is that they won't fight their base to win an election. We saw how quickly they folded from 2015 to 2016 to daddy Trump. Dems will sabotage their own candidates for the sake of "winning". The democratic party never beating the controlled opposition accusations.

They are scared because he won through the donations of regular New yorkers not the billionaires who are usually king makers.
They have to talk about how he is muslim and all that shyt to try to scare voters for not voting for him.

Speaking of King makers, interesting how a couple of years ago, Cuomo was a sex pest and called to resign by Democrats
But now the same democrats think he is ok, The billionaires made sure he got in line with their policies and he allowed to run for mayor.

│ Two primaries rigged against Bernie, then a senile man was coronated in 2024.

│ Yet despite this, a higher % of Bernie supporters voted Hillary in 2016 than Hillary supporters voted for Obama in 2008.

│ Despite this, the DNC still framed the 2020 debates around "voting blue no matter who," implying it was the fault of the left that Hillary lost.

│ Well, now it is time for the DNC to embrace "voting blue no matter who". When will Schumer & Jeffries endorse Zohran for Mayor? Credit to NY congressman Jerry Nadler, as he has done so

Because a city needs ditch diggers and garbage men too. Are they supposed to live in the sewers?
garbage men make great money in NYC (which they deserve), what are you talking about? terribly out of touch post

and why can none of you explain what "livable wage" means? it's not a trick question. own car? own apartment? what are you referring to?
