Starting point is 00:00:00 So anyway, this guy, Zoron, uh, Man Donnie, I think that's how I say his name. I don't know. I've never heard his name spoken. And, uh, ended up winning the, uh, New York City mayor primary, which I mean, New York City is really popular. It's like, you know, the most famous city probably in America. And so, you know, this is like pretty much nation news. You know, a lot of the things that, like, he represents, things that he says, I'm not necessarily a huge fan of it. But, um, there are things that I do like. Like, for example, he's young. I am so, and I think that this is the way that a lot of guys that are my, my age feel. And like any of you guys that are like around, you know, my age, tell me if you feel this way,
Starting point is 00:00:38 we are sick of having the fucking some 70, 80, 60 year old guy running everything. Like, and also they do it wrong. They do it fucking wrong. These people don't understand computers and they want to go ahead and run the country. No, no, you need to understand how to use your smartphone. Uh-uh, nope. I'm out. Maybe he'll lose the general election, but New York City's pretty Democrat, and so this guy's pretty much locked in to be the new mayor, right? But I mean, I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Starting point is 00:01:10 Anyway, so we'll look at a few comments about this. I think also the guy's really charismatic. He's got a great smile. He's photogenic, et cetera. And I mean, look, yeah, he looks like a trustworthy, nice guy. Also, there's clips like this. This is a really good example of the reason why Zoron won. And take a look at this right here. The first foreign visit by a mayor of New York is always considered significant. Where would you go first? Left to right? This out.
Starting point is 00:01:44 First visit. I would visit the Holy Land. Mr. Cuomo. Given the hostility and the anti-Semitism that has been shown in New York, I would go to Israel. Mr. Tilsen, where would you go? Yeah, I'd make my fourth trip to Israel, followed by my fifth trip to Ukraine, two of our greatest allies, fighting on the front lines of the global war on terror. Mr. Mamm Dani.
Starting point is 00:02:06 I would stay in New York City. My plans are to address New Yorkers across the five boroughs and focus on that. You got my vote. There it is. It's that simple. Why would you trust this bullshit? Because at least he's pretending to care. These other people don't even pretend.
Starting point is 00:02:33 They don't even pretend. They're not even trying. They're just, they're openly saying, yes, we're going to go over to Israel. Yeah, sorry, guys, but he's horrible? Good. Okay, so then, and they should listen to this. You think this guy's so horrible. Okay? Then stop putting up people that put Israel ahead of the United States. All right, because as a show of force, I would rather vote for somebody who is fucking horrible. I would rather flip the fucking board over. I would rather vote for a fucking, a, a, a, Crackhead under a bridge, then stay inside of the little tiny, fucking narrow, you know, damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. Sorry about my voice, guys. I'm running on empty guy.
Starting point is 00:03:25 I'm going to be totally real. I've had a stressful week, and it's probably going to keep being stressful. It's rough. And so, anyway, speaking of crack, yes, speaking of crack, there you go. And anyway, so elect the terrorist. Yes. As a show of force and as a show of, what's the word, of protest? Yes. Yes. That's right. That's right. We're so sick of this that we will elect the terrorist. That's right. That was my viewpoint with Trump. That was. And like, yes, well, what? That's right.
Starting point is 00:04:06 Because again, and no, no, no, it's a show of defiance. It is a show of defiance. It is a show of defiance. It is a protest vote. It is a fuck you. It is a no, I'm not going to sit inside of this little box that you put me in. I'm going to go off the fucking rails. And unless you want to follow me, you're going to lose. And the thing is that it's a show of ignorance. Good.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Good. Hopefully they listen this time. Stop giving us shitty candidates. Stop giving us shitty candidates that prioritize Israel over New York City. New York City is a fucking PVP server. There's crazy people everywhere in New York City. There's illegal migration constantly. There's fucking, you know, like, what is it?
Starting point is 00:04:54 There's rent problems. Nobody can afford to live there. People are having their shit stolen constantly. All of this stuff, it's Gotham. Like, everybody knows New York City was based off of Gotham fucking city, right? Or sorry, Gotham City was based off New York City. And that's the Batman City where everything goes wrong. And so the fact is, no, no, absolutely not.
Starting point is 00:05:16 And my NYC, KDA is, watch Eric Adams interview talking about this guy. Yeah, I will. And who's truly ignorant there? And the people who are, it's not about being ignorant. It's about showing defiance against a system that intentionally disenfranchises you and creates a false dichotomy between different people that will not give you any results. And at a certain point, in my opinion, I think the only way to play
Starting point is 00:05:43 is to flip the fucking board over and say fuck you. So an anarchist? Absolutely. Absolutely. Yes. I would rather live in anarchy than managed controlled tyranny
Starting point is 00:06:06 occupied by a foreign nation slowly declining into feudalism. No. No, no, no. Mom, Donnie, can I just jump in? Would you visit Israel? So look at this shit.
Starting point is 00:06:28 What the fuck is wrong with you? As mayor? I will be doing as the mayor. And I want to reiterate, I don't agree with this guy on a lot of things. I don't like a lot of things this guy represents. But that doesn't matter. Standing up for Jewish New Yorkers and I'll be meeting them wherever they are across the five boroughs.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Do you remember what I said before about how I always vote for the most disruptive candidate. Whoever will cause the most problems, whoever will destabilize the system the most, that's who I vote for. Because I think the system needs to be destabilized, because I think that it is, the stabilization of the system is done in a way that is, you know, bad. He's the literal opposite of your whole politics. I know.
Starting point is 00:07:19 That's my point. Yes. That's the whole point. That's in their synagogues and temples or at their home. homes or the subway. That's not a smart way of thinking. You see, a lot of people, and I understand your point of view, and I respect your point of view, but that's not the point of view that I want to live by.
Starting point is 00:07:45 My personal opinion is that choosing the lesser of two evils, it seems to me, this is just the way I feel. It seems to me that the lesser of two evils becomes more evil every time, just over time. you know, maybe like 20 years ago. It was more reasonable. And it becomes more and more and more evil. And the other one becomes worse and worse and worse. You're still choosing evil, right? Exactly.
Starting point is 00:08:16 And so chat's getting mad when you don't even know in New York. Yeah, this guy's better in Como by a long shot. Como's a proven corrupt politician. Exactly. People don't understand that after electing the guy, it's going to make people more happy with Republicans. Yeah. And again, and I know this is probably going to be very surprising for people to hear.
Starting point is 00:08:31 And again, I don't even really. like it's a protest vote basically and i i think a lot of people should a lot of people should embrace that and here's one thing to keep in mind that all of the establishment politics and everything establishment media the one thing that they are more afraid of than anything is a person like me who is willing to flip the board over throw things into chaos ruin everything and just say fuck it, I'm going to do it anyway. Because I'm so sick and tired of this bullshit. Platform, because ultimately we need to focus on delivering on their concerns. And just yes or no, do you believe in a Jewish state of Israel?
Starting point is 00:09:19 Do you see this? Listen to this. As the mayor, I'll be standing up for Jewish New Yorkers and I'll be meeting them wherever. As mayor. I will be doing as the mayor, I'll be standing up for Jewish New Yorkers and I'll be meeting them wherever they are across the five boroughs, whether that's in their synagogues and temples or at their homes or at the subway platform, because ultimately we need to focus on delivering on their concerns.
Starting point is 00:09:41 And just guess or no, do you believe in a Jewish state of Israel? So this is it. They asked him which place that he would visit first, and then he says he'd stay in New York to make New York better, and then they ask him a question that's like, do you believe in the Jewish state of Israel? They're trying to catch him in something that's going to make him look bad. They're trying to misrepresent him.
Starting point is 00:10:03 And again, hopefully you guys, respect it's so obvious it's so fucking obvious I believe Israel has the right to exist as a Jewish state as a state with equal rights he won't say it has a right to exist as a Jewish state be very clear
Starting point is 00:10:20 well they do they have a right to exist as a Jewish state they have a right to exist however they want because they like I don't like this idea that a state doesn't have the right to exist as an ethno state it very clearly does because we're not God like I mean basically
Starting point is 00:10:36 like sovereign nations are not accountable to anybody else. So if a nation wants to exist as an ethno state, that is their right and their own prerogative because they are a sovereign nation to make that decision. So it was no, he won't visit Israel. I said that. That's what he was trying to say. No, no, no, unlike you, unlike you answered, unlike you answered no, okay, directly. My, my goal would be to take my first trip to Israel. My wife's life work in this area means a lot to our family and it could coincide with my young son Miles and Bar Mitzvah if you'd like to have his bar mitzvah. Man, and so big surprise. And this is not even a topic that should be discussed at a mayor or debate. This is subversion. Yes, the problem is he might say he will visit Israel, but we all know a big
Starting point is 00:11:24 politician bows down to Israel. He's just saying that he won't. You can't be a politician without unwavering outspoken allegiance with Israel. Well, eventually somebody will be. eventually somebody will be a politician who doesn't express allegiance to Israel and when that person does come out and I think again voting for this guy moves the Overtin window closer to that guy getting elected this guy might not be that guy but this guy paves the path for the next guy
Starting point is 00:11:55 and we'll watch this other team says I move my hands too much in these videos so for this one they're staying in my pockets the other day on the subway I met a New Yorker but get this They vote in California. I know this is true for many of you. You're Democrats who've chosen not to vote here because you believe your vote counts more elsewhere. Every four years you vote absentee from your parents' address in Philly
Starting point is 00:12:12 or three apartments in go in Atlanta. But come on, you live here. I get it, I do! Keep them in your pockets! Especially after this last election. We all wanted to defeat Donald Trump, and New York felt like a lock. But in many ways, this election, Trump's back on the ballot.
Starting point is 00:12:26 We have a choice between Andrew Cuomo, funded by the same billionaires who put Donald Trump back in the White House. In our campaign, pool tax billionaires to make the city affordable. It's a referendum on where our party goes. So in just this one instance, ask yourself, WWDFGD, what would a disgrace former governor do? Well, Cuomo changes registration immediately
Starting point is 00:12:43 after not having lived here for more than 30 years. There's also that. What the fuck? This guy's trying to run for mayor at a place he doesn't even live? What the hell are you talking about? So if he's voting from his new address, so should you! With just single digits between us and Andrew Cuomo, door vote can make the difference.
Starting point is 00:13:02 It did. this Saturday to change your registration in New York City. So head to Zahran for NYC.com forward slash vote. Let's win this thing. I do. Keep them in your pockets. Yep, and there it is. And this is a good, this is, again, it's a very simple interview, you know,
Starting point is 00:13:22 very simple commercial. And that's, I think, what people, it's annoying. I mean, people could say it's annoying or whatever. But I think in general, I think that he has a message that resonates with a lot of people. people. And I think especially as more young people, I think that as more young people, and like he's not really super young, he's 33, right? And I'm older than that, so I don't know what that says. But my point is, I think that there are a lot of these issues that I think mainstream
Starting point is 00:13:49 media and I think the boomer establishment somehow that's still in power is like fucking desperately hanging on to like bullshit with Israel and other things like this. These are just simply not relevant to an average person, right? He looks 40. I mean, I don't know. But like, either way, that's what I'm saying. But anyway, so I'll watch a video about this because this was obviously very, very big news. But as I said, you know, I know that a lot of people might not like my methods. But I truly do believe that the only way to overcome people like him and the, you know, like Israel first lobby is to just simply vote against it at any cost. would vote for a garage health screen as president? Yeah, I would. Absolutely, of course.
Starting point is 00:14:35 And so let's go back over here. I'll look and see it. And Trump came out yesterday after your stream and said 24 hours ending the war with sarcasm. Oh, no, I did not see that. I didn't at all. Yeah, voting for a communist Islamist because you hate Jews is crazy. Yep, and keep saying it's because you hate Jews and you're going to keep getting more communist Islamists and you get what you fucking deserve. Yep, keep playing that game, keep lying, keep misrepresenting. Keep misrepresenting. things. Keep trying to overplay your hands. Yeah, keep doing it. Keep doing it. It's working out great.
Starting point is 00:15:08 The results are coming in and what could be a real-time referendum on the future of the Democratic Party. Many analysts see New York City's mayoral race as a litmus test between establishment Democrats and the younger, more progressive wing of the party. CNN's chief data analyst, Harry Enton is with us
Starting point is 00:15:23 at the table now. Harry, there is a huge component to this that's not even being discussed. And it's the fact that a lot of these older politicians have goals, issues, and problems that do not resonate with the population. Like a guy almost won the mayor, like one mayor in New York City by just saying the rent is too damn high. That was it. That's all he needed to say. And that was massively effective. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Yeah. Tell us where we are right now. I mean, look, Mondani is ahead by
Starting point is 00:16:01 plenty at this point. You could see on your screen right. That's a seven point lead right now. I'm going to turn up a little bit. In terms of the first round votes. Now, obviously, New York uses ranked choice voting system where essentially you will eliminate all the candidates. You reallocate their ballots because the folks who get a ballot will rank their candidates one through five and you essentially reallocate the votes until one candidate gets at least
Starting point is 00:16:21 50%. But I will tell you this. If you look on your screen, you see the third place candidate, Brad Lander. It's pretty obvious. I mean, this guy is on this guy's side. So, I mean, like, it's over, right? It's so over. co-endorsed with Mondani. Most of his votes are very likely to go to Mondani and not a single
Starting point is 00:16:41 pre-election poll that I saw had Cuomo getting anywhere near the type of support that he would need once those ballots reallocated. That lead will almost certainly stand up. And that is why I do believe that Cuomo has conceded the Democratic nomination. And he's called Mondani to concede, which is extraordinary. Let me tell you this. I study New York City politics in my entire life. The only New York City primary that I think is tantamount to this in terms of the earthquake is 1989 when David Dinkins came in and defeated Ed Koch, who is running for a fourth term for mayor. That is the type of earthquake that we're seeing here, and he's done it. He came into this race down, what, 30, 40 points to Andrew Cuomo, the former governor who everyone thought was a huge favorite.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Apparently not. He did it by activating younger voters, by activating very liberal voters, by cutting into Andrew Cuomo's base with black voters. The bottom line, is this. Mondani is now a force to be reckoned with in Democratic politics nation. It shifts the window to discussing things and topics that are relevant to everyday average people rather than these abstractions and, you know, like paying, you know, some sort of tribute to foreign interests. Why going forward? Joy, you talk to him.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Is it true? You only got a citizenship seven years ago and he's a socialist from Africa. But yeah, I mean, well, we voted for one of those in 2008, too. So what do you expect? I mean, we've done this before. On Friday, Friday. We had him on the show on Friday. We also had Brad Lander on, and Brad Lander talked about being tackled by ICE agents as he was trying to defend immigrants.
Starting point is 00:18:19 What Mammondani said that I thought was really extraordinary, he would be the first immigrant mayor of the preeminent immigrant capital in the United States. I'll add in. I also think that if you run for any public office and you, hold any public office at all in the United States, you need to renounce all citizenship from any other country. Dual citizens cannot run for public office, should not be able to run for public office. That would be nice, yes. And there's no reason. New rules? Yep, absolutely. So I want to make sure you guys understand that a chaos vote is not necessarily a complete endorsement of an individual. What about U.S. territories? Debatable. I'd have to think about that more.
Starting point is 00:19:14 I mean, I'm thinking about other countries that aren't U.S. territories, but probably I'd be okay with that. I mean, if they're U.S. territories, I would probably be, I guess, like, if I had to guess. Is a sanctuary city where people are still being accosted at their immigration hearings. And so I think just symbolically, I think this is a message about people's revulsion in the treatment of immigrants by this administration. It's nothing to do with that. Indeed, talking about egg prices and rents meta like Trump did, but nothing changed for the better, only empty promises. Well, egg prices did go down. They absolutely went down.
Starting point is 00:19:51 I don't even know what you're talking about. Like, you could just look at the graph and the graph shows that it went down. And so, like, immigrants, I think obviously, you know, this girl is a fucking retard, right? she's always been a retard that's why she got kicked off of her show i'm surprised that she made her way on the cnn but the reality is that uh you know illegal aliens uh yeah i think people do have a big problem with that but uh legal immigration i think there's less of an issue with but you know again there's like limits to everything and about the uh the ways in which the adams administration has been complicit in that and i think that's part of what's going to your interview with him
Starting point is 00:20:30 where he talks about this. Let's listen. You know, I would be the first immigrant mayor of this city in generations, and I would be proud to be that, but even prouder for what I would actually do. This is a city of immigrants we've said for so long. 40% of New Yorkers were born outside of this country, and yet what we've seen in the current mayoral administration, and even in Andrew Cuomo's campaign, is an insufficient readiness to actually take on Donald Trump and protect New Yorkers.
Starting point is 00:20:57 One of the things we should be proudest of in New York City are our sanctuary city laws. These are laws that have kept New Yorkers safe for decades, been defended by Republicans and Democrats alike for that time period until the demagoguery of this current mayor. I would proudly stand up for the way. This is what I'm saying. I completely disagree with everything he's saying here. I think this is totally fucking retarded. It's completely un-American. And I think sanctuary should be totally illegal.
Starting point is 00:21:22 That's my viewpoint. Those laws. So he's talking there also about- I think anybody who even allows it or facilitates it should, be charged. Eric Adams, who we haven't really talked about because he's not in this primary, but is expected to run on another line in the general. This will be an indictment on Eric.
Starting point is 00:21:47 But you would have voted for him? I would have voted for him over the other guys, yeah. Because the other guys would have done the same thing. Yeah. When every option is bad, flip the board over. Yeah. That's right. Come back with better options next time.
Starting point is 00:22:11 You don't want the board flipped over again. Eric Adams, too. And his willingness to, I guess, in the words of Mom Dani, stand up to Donald Trump. There's no unhappier after Mom Dani and his family than Eric Adams tonight. Because everyone over 50 years old who remembers Times Square in the 1970s and the 1980s when you couldn't walk through. It was all pornography and crack and muggings and rapes and robberies. Everyone who remembers that is going to vote for Eric Adams.
Starting point is 00:22:43 The New York Times who didn't drink an endorsement did say, please don't vote for Mom Dani, as the Daily News, as the New York Post. So anybody who knows how bad New York can get all came out against Mom Dani because a 33-year-old was zero experience running anything except a little office with five employees. I have a right. Great. You know what? You know what?
Starting point is 00:23:08 I hear whenever I hear that, I hear that a 33-year-old with no experience that, has no fucking idea what he's doing, managed to out maneuver a career politician. I think that says more about the career politician than it does about the person who won. That's just me. That's a skill issue? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:37 Donald Trump is president of the United States. His experience was being on the apprentice. He's got, he's head of the Pentagon. He was experiencing a weekend on Fox. Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? Are you kidding?
Starting point is 00:23:50 Are you kidding a 17-year-old kid? Dr. Oz. Are you kidding me? She's so dumb. She's actually so stupid. She's actually trying to compare Donald Trump, who's been involved tangentially in politics for almost half a century to a 33-year-old guy that has not been involved in politics in the same way.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Like Donald Trump's been involved in politics long as this guy's been alive. Like, it's insane. How do you even compare the to? A socialist who's never run a popsicle stand. He's literally insane. city government right now. Sorry. After Donald Trump, I'm sorry, after Donald Trump and his Pinky and the Brain Administration, no one ever gets to talk about qualifications again. Socialism will not save the capitalist capital of the world. I want to ask you a question.
Starting point is 00:24:35 What is your evidence that Mamdani would return New York City to the 1970s hellhole time square? What is your evidence is very simple. So he wants to raise taxes on people who make the most money. What eventually is going to happen is you're going to lose that tax base. you lose that tax base our bonds will get degraded now the city the city budget will not be substantial enough to to subsidize not only the cops but the fire department the sanitation department once you start losing wall street and people who pay 11 12000 dollars a month to live on the okay so let me you're done let me let me let me let me ask you back to the 70s when jare and and and he's by the way he he's making good points here right he's making good points he's making he's making he's making he's making he's
Starting point is 00:25:22 saying things that I think are relevant. I think these are true. Sure. Ford said to New York dropped dead. Okay. But, Arthur, but Arthur, just says somebody who is just listening to you. You raise the taxes on wealthy people in this city, maybe a couple percent, right? They're already, yeah, they're already, and that's exactly my point. They're already paying some of the high. I know, I know, what's the logic? So because they're paying high taxes if you charge them even higher taxes they're not going to leave oh my god where do they come where do these people come from but arthur they are already paying right at this moment some of the highest taxes in the country and you think that one or two percent is going
Starting point is 00:26:23 to cause a mass exodus out of new york how did you said it could it could there's always the straw that breaks the camels back that's what's happened with california that's why so many businesses moved from California to Texas. I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just want to be clear that that's what you're saying, because I think that seems pretty extraordinary. Because he's also not going to focus on crime. Right now you have police commissioner Tish and John Schell, the chief of the department, crime in the state.
Starting point is 00:26:51 And he's totally right. Baldi, Kingpin here is right about this again. He's right. Crime is a massive fucking issue. People are getting their shit stolen. People are selling stolen goods on the street. You know, illegal aliens are being employed constantly. It's a massive issue.
Starting point is 00:27:11 The city of New York right now is set to break all records as the lowest ever in recorded history for shootings and murders. Once that starts going up in the other direction and the tax base is gone and sanitation has gone and schools are going. Hold on. Hold on. Last thing I will say and then I'll let you in. Well, last thing I'll say and then I'll let you in. Holy fuck. Eric Adams, crime did go up in the city. And it went down. Yes, but it was during the pandemic. Yes. And migrants. Exactly. But, but I'm just being clear, crime has already gone up in New York and it has come down. So even when crime went up in New York, there was perhaps some departure, but there was not a collapse of the tax base in New York City.
Starting point is 00:27:54 Okay, Anna, go ahead. It was flight. Okay, so. Imagine what would happen if three bad things happened. Like, I mean, doesn't, does this girl ever played wow? Like, she knows three stacks of Sunder Armour, makes you do more damage than one stack of Sunder Armour, right? I mean, this is fucking obvious. If you've got multiple debuffs, then it's more effective than one debuff. Everybody knows. How do people not know this? It's so obvious.
Starting point is 00:28:22 I am not a New Yorker. What's going on? In Miami where we don't have 50% tax rate. We have our share of insane elections and insane politicians. But this reminded me, you talked about the Dinkins election. to me this reminded me of the AOC versus Joe Crowley collection where there was this establishment sacred cow who thought that by because of his name and because of his pockets he could walk into it and there was a young upstart who put a lot of leather and you know a lot of
Starting point is 00:28:55 footwork and boots on the ground and did it and so you know I would say when it comes to New York do not and underestimate That's right. The sweat. I won. I'm not underwent. I would just say this. And I would not have voted for it. If you were saying that Eric Adams is the person who's this, loves this to result the second most compared to my money after Mondani. He'll be the anti-Mondon.
Starting point is 00:29:22 But I will say this, the people who hate this result the most of a Democratic establishment. We have seen poll after poll, after poll showing Democratic voters. That is the exact mindset that I have about the protest vote. That is. exactly what I think. Fed up with their leaders in Washington, fed up with their leaders in government. And all of a sudden, Andrew Cuomo, who five years ago was leading those COVID, you know, press conferences was this guy who was helping such high esteem.
Starting point is 00:29:51 And now all of a sudden, the best he flipped the board over, burn the motherfucker down, do not accept the lesser of two evils, do not be pacified, do not let this happen. can do is what 37% of Democrats say that they're Republicans in the T party this is the Chi party taking over the Democrats and I run campaigns for Republicans
Starting point is 00:30:17 all over the country if they turned to 33 year old socialists who never run popsicle stands that's great for us we'll win a lot of elections So can somebody explain this to me now so this could end up so Cuomo could end up running as an independent Adams ends up as an independent
Starting point is 00:30:32 and then this guy, in other words, in other words, it ain't over. This is the way I see it, right? And Zoran was for defunding the NYPD. Yeah, well, how's the NYPD doing now? I mean, aren't they all doing that? And also, by the way, bloating hard is a bloated tard arguing for the status quo. Why does it always seem like there's a self-destruction plan from the Democrats, like they want to sabotage themselves?
Starting point is 00:30:57 It's because they're captured by identity politics. That's the issue is that so much. much of Democrat positions are caricatured by identity politics that it's impossible for them to divorce themselves from the extremists and the radicals that they've attracted. And that's really the main reason why it's happened. And NYPD didn't do shit anyway. Yeah, exactly, right? And so, I don't know. It seems like every candidate that the Democrats are pushing is a brain-dead option. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't like, I mean, would I vote for Eric Adams instead? I don't know enough about the guy. But I will say that
Starting point is 00:31:31 the moment that I hear somebody, the first thing that they would want to do is mayor, is go to the Holy Land. No, bro. If you are the mayor of my city, your Holy Land is right here. That's the way I see it.
Starting point is 00:31:49 That's my opinion, right? The moment I hear that shit, I'm out. I'm out. That's it. I'm done. Get to fucking work? Yes. And so, yes, stay in your fucking city. And yeah, they aren't true. Yeah, Adams are more corrupt than Como. He's even worse. So maybe that's it. Your point in this makes sense, but the core values of American democracy won't
Starting point is 00:32:09 push the needle far. The chaos won't help. It will only spread more socialist values. Well, trying to make things better by making them worse is the only thing that I can do. And I think it's the most effective thing that I can do. And I have no problem doing something that I think is maybe destructive in order to achieve a larger goal that I think is beneficial. And I wish more people saw it that way. I definitely do. And Holy Land, we're back to crusading. Yes, clearly. It's accelerationism. Yes, exactly. And I'm from Israel. I agree with you 100%. And if you're in Israeli, I don't like guys. Let's be real, right? If you're in Israeli, I totally get it. I totally understand where you're coming from. But like in the same way that you should be advocating for your country, we want to be advocating for ours. And that's it. It's just that simple. So you can listen to this guy's The message here too And we'll watch one more of these
Starting point is 00:33:02 I want to move on past this There's a bunch of other stuff I want to talk about You're for universal income But not high taxes for the wealthiest people in New York I just don't think I don't think that as a mayor I think that the solution to that has to be on a federal level So like I agree with the idea
Starting point is 00:33:17 But I don't agree with the implementation Does that make sense? Good morning everyone We are approaching the dawn of a new era In New York City We are turning the page on the corrupt politics of the past that made this the most expensive city in the United States of America. See, this is again, this is an average person's issue. Money, money, money, money, money, money.
Starting point is 00:33:44 Today I am filled with gratitude for the more than 50,000 volunteers that have powered this campaign for the last eight months, for the tens of thousands more who have already cast their ballots. And I'm filled with conviction that we will win this race. We've shown that by focusing on the issues of working in middle-class New Yorkers across this city, that by listening instead of lecturing, that by creating a politics of no translation, New Yorkers will join you in your fight for a new city. What we offer is a way to sustain this city that I so deeply love.
Starting point is 00:34:25 What we offer is a vision to keep New Yorkers in the place that they call home. And an antidote to the Trump administration and the hatred and the division that it's used. Yeah, like I think that's stupid but everything else, these are all again, individual, personal things that people
Starting point is 00:34:41 care about. You're showing people that hope is not something that is naive. It is in fact righteous when it is built upon a plan and a vision. We are showing New York City that a better day is possible
Starting point is 00:34:58 and today is the first of many of them. Thank you so much. Yeah, so there it is. And high taxes for the rich never works. They get tax deductions and move their money to Switzerland. There's all like high taxes doesn't work. How much do you want to bet that if you took, so if you took the top five tax evaders in the country,
Starting point is 00:35:21 like you got Donald Trump together, you got Bill Clinton together, you got George Soros together, and you got, let's see, who else? Who doesn't pay any taxes and fucks around on their taxes all the time? Maybe Bill Gates, maybe something like that, and maybe Elon Musk. Yeah, you get these five guys together. Somehow they're all on the same team. I guarantee you that they can come up with a tax code that prevents that from happening. Garin fucking teed.
Starting point is 00:35:52 The thing is that the reason why this happens is that the people that run the government are retarded and in the cases where they're not retarded, they're bribed. And so that's it. No, these guys could figure it out without a question. Yeah, they would immediately. It's the same as Trump put those tariffs on and he tariffed the Penguin Island immediately. Everybody said, well, why did you tariff the Penguin Island? Well, he says, well, because people usually route it from the Penguin Island to avoid tariffs.
Starting point is 00:36:18 How would you know that? Because you're a scammer. That's how you know that. And so if you're a scammer, you can see other scams. And so I guarantee you bring together the top five biggest scammers and you're going to be able to come up with a system that you can't fucking scam. And that's it. Fucking penguins. Yes.
Starting point is 00:36:38 No, I'm being serious. Absolutely. You know, so to play the game. Yes, people know how to play the game. And so, yeah, this is the reason why I think this guy won. Zoroam Anami a Muslim Democratic Socialist is one in the New York City primary for mayor. Yeah, again, if they didn't want this to happen,
Starting point is 00:36:54 they should have avoided running candidates that said that the Holy Land wasn't New York City. If you are the mayor of New York City, New York City should be your Holy Land, not Israel. It is a joke. It is a joke. Oh my God. Where are these people coming from?
Starting point is 00:37:12 So yes. And change the subject, I know, I know, I know. I know I feel very strongly about this. I do. And again, like this is stuff that I agree. Let's see here. What would I agree with? End cash bail. I don't know about this. Repeal the walking while transband. I don't even know what that is. Decriminalized sex work. I think that's okay. Legalized marijuana. I agree with that. Safe injection sites. This sounds like bullshit. Restrict solitary confinement. I don't really know about this. Inact, elder parole. I don't know about that. Decriminalize simple drug possession. I agree with that. Repeal all mandatory minimum. sentences. I disagree with this. Reduce maximum sentences with retroactive effect. I also disagree with it. I think we need to have more people, guys. I'm a big fan. So, uh, this is going to
Starting point is 00:37:55 sound bad. I'm a big fan of putting a lot of people in jail. That's what I think we need to do. We've got a big problem. We've got a lot of people causing issues. The solution is we put all of them in jail. Anybody who's causing problems, uh, you're
Starting point is 00:38:13 shitting on the street. Okay, jail. You're selling you're selling fake IDs, jail. You're going, you know, you skip, you skip the subway fare. You save 79 cents. Believe it or not, jail. That's right. Work in rehab, I can tell you how abused they are by the homeless who have no intention
Starting point is 00:38:39 of ever stopping their drug use. Yeah, listen, guys, I know obviously there's bad people in rehab and there's some people that are drug users and everything, they do need to be put in jail. But the reason why they need to be put in jail isn't because they're drug users. It's because they're bad actors. I think that's more the case than anything else. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:56 And there's safe injection sites in San Francisco and it fuck the city. Yeah, I don't know. Asmon would arrest someone stealing food to survive. Of course I would. I would do that without a second of hesitation. Instantaneously, I would arrest somebody stealing food to survive. Because the people who they're stealing the food for need to sell food to survive. What business and what right do they have to take a way?
Starting point is 00:39:16 way somebody else is right to survival in order to benefit their own absolutely not no it's always easy to think like that but you never think about the second order effects so yes absolutely i do it and that's just the way it is
