Mamdani has one of the very few things money cannot buy outright: he is reasonably well liked throughout NYC.

Trump has always wanted that, and now he’s the President and the Most (?) Popular Guy in the City is the mayor, so

• Trump will get plenty of excuses to meet with Mamdani, and
• he will take every single one to try and attach himself to Mamdani’s political success and popularity

Yeah, you know, it’s really a tossup between “one million malevolent GPUs with the all the constitution of a Ming dynasty vase” and “Sarah, from the county public works department, with a backhoe that hasn’t been replaced since 1987”

I have no idea where they got that headline from.

The “IPO price” for institutions (banks, hedge funds, a tiny bit for retail brokers) was $135. It opened on the public market at $150-something.

To be clear (because it isn’t totally obvious from the title and text submitted on Lemmy), this article is a call to action, not reporting on a filing that’s actually happened or rumored to be in progress or anything like that:

Three officials can move on this, and they can each do something different, so we ask each one for what they actually have the power to do. […] Here is where to reach them, by phone or by email.

He could be charged Monday. Or Tuesday. Or he could’ve been charged last Monday. There’s three people in Virginia who have the power to make that happen, you should go call and email them.

Definitely in the “good work if you can find it” bucket

I mean you’re probably right but “Jewish space lasers” is from MTG seeing some blue-ish light over a wildfire and saying it looked like space-laser arson
