      Relevant

      No one likes him other than landlords and cops (and by extension Staten Island). Dude is a piece of shit. I wish we could get a half competent NY mayor.

        Enough people liked him at election time to vote for him, despite having tons of alternatives and instant runoff.

        I watched a Perfect Union video on YT a few weeks ago about the minimum wage for gig workers/delivery workers in NYC.

        People worked so hard to get it approved, and this douche has been undermining it since it was passed. I think he has even made changes to it after the fact in ways that are not legal.

        That’s all I knew about him before, so this headline doesn’t really surprise me.

      Be careful what you wish for. Andrew Cuomo is nosing around for this job.

    This dude can’t seem to catch a break. Then again, maybe, just maybe, he shouldn’t have sold out to the turks or abused people.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.
