Right now, there's a big election happening in New York, and it’s getting wild. In the Democratic primary, it started out as a race between Andrew Cuomo, the former governor of New York, and Mamdani, who’s this second-generation immigrant. His parents are from India, but he was born in Uganda and is now an American citizen. At first, both Democrats and Republicans were gunning for Mamdani, trying to tear him down. The original Democrat candidate was Cuomo, who's super connected with billionaires and is close with people like Nancy Pelosi. Pretty much, both major parties in New York rely on billionaire donations to fund their campaigns.
But then Mamdani came out of nowhere—he didn’t have any big-money backing, just support from regular people. And guess what? He ended up winning the Democratic primary. Most of the Democratic establishment isn’t thrilled about him, but they’ve got no choice now since he’s the official candidate. Cuomo, not one to go down without a fight, is now running as an independent, trying to claw his way back into the mayor's office.
Then there's the Republican candidate, who I don’t even remember the name of because they’re pretty irrelevant in all of this. What's interesting, though, is that Trump—despite Cuomo being a Democrat—seems to be backing him. Cuomo’s got those New York billionaire connections, and Trump, being one of them, probably sees him as someone he can work with.
Now, if Mamdani wins (which it looks like he will), he’s got some big plans. He wants to raise taxes on the billionaires in New York, lower taxes for the middle and lower classes, and make buses in the city free. He also wants to lower rent prices to make New York more affordable for regular folks. One of his big ideas is that a truly developed country is one where even the rich ride public transport. He points to places like Luxembourg and Monaco, where the wealthy take the bus, and he wants to make that a reality in New York too. Plus, he’s all about bringing back healthcare to the city.
It’s an interesting time in New York politics, for sure. A lot of people are behind Mamdani because of his pro-people stance, and with the Republicans even backing him on things like free buses, it seems like he’s got a real shot at winning.
Look how he destroyed the Dinosaurs in debate.
How he will make buses free?

In other words, Mamdani entered politics as a local. There were no millions or connections from the rich. He came with the support of ordinary people.
Cuomo tried to bring him down but Mamdani stood firm. He won the primary without much money. Now even Republicans accept him because of his ideas of free buses and fair taxes.
This is proof that if you stand with the people, they can lift you up. Mamdani wants real change. Even the rich should ride the bus like other people. This is the dream of real development.

It's a unique time in New York politics because Zohran Mamdani has gained a lot of popularity for his pro-people stance. Many people see him as a leader who is pushing for policies aimed at reducing the cost of living, such as proposing free bus rides and tax cuts for low-income residents. Even some Republican politicians have shown support for some of his ideas, which shows that his agenda can cross party lines. The biggest challenge will be how to finance such policies without affecting the city's budget, but he still seems to have a good chance of influencing and bringing about change.

So, more evidence against Trump is showing up. Trump have phone calls with Epstein. Trump have letters to Epstein. They are very good friends that goes to that island to enjoy underage girls. And I'm not going to be biased to one party because even Bill Clinton got involved. Everyone who got involved regardless of their political party has to be arrested.Adults being sexually interested to little girls should be a crime. Little girls should be on school, being educated, not being turned to wives and sex slaves for adults.

These Trump and Epstein stories have been widely discussed online and are putting a lot of people in tension. The truth is that adults being involved with minors is a very serious crime, regardless of party or name. Anyone involved in underage exploitation must face the law. Children deserve to be in school getting an education, not being made wives or sex slaves. That is a great injustice. It is like a crow screaming in the night. It remains scary and completely unacceptable.
