“Can’t believe NYC elected a Muslim as mayor.”
In truth—a Black American Christian woman swearing in a Ugandan American Muslim of South Asian ethnicity as his Syrian American wife holds the Qurans he swears in on, all while standing on the steps of a subway station—is the most NYC thing imaginable.

Montage of Howard Lutnick over the past 9 months constantly moving the goalposts on when the economy is going to be booming - 4Q! 1Q! 2Q! 1 year!
He was asked in March when it wasn’t going to be Biden’s fault anymore: “We own the economy in the 4th quarter!”
