Mamdani reveals his odd idea of ‘defending’ New – Latest News
Diary of disturbing disinformation and harmful delusions
This boast:
“Mayor Mamdani Takes Bold, Unapologetic Actions to Protect New Yorkers” — City Hall press release, Tuesday
We say: And what actions may these be?
“Doubling down on Sanctuary City policies” and “committing firmly to closing” the Rikers jail complicated.
No joke: The mayor’s idea of maintaining people protected is making sure the town is a place the place unlawful immigrants who could have dedicated violent crimes are shielded from arrest, and closing the town’s primary jail complicated — even when there’s no place else for convicts to go. Feel safer but?

We say: The Gray Lady’s headline author should’ve been so proud of coming up with such a cutesy play on the phrase “America,” and aiding the paper’s bid guilty President Trump for a US-NATO rift.
Trouble is, the acronym stands for North Atlantic Treaty Organization, not North American.
And the story’s bid guilty Trump was each bid as fallacious because the headline.
This comment:
“Weigh in on . . . the fact that there is no head of DHS right now at a time when DHS is shut down. Does that do real damage?” — NBC News’ Kristen Welker on “Meet the Press,” Sunday
We say: Sorry, however Markwayne Mullin was sworn in as Homeland Security secretary on March 24. Sure, all journalists goof up as soon as in a whereas.
