Will @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social be able to turn his ambitious agenda into public policy?

I spoke with Dean Fuleihan, Mamdani's newly-named First Deputy Mayor and a seasoned veteran of New York politics, on what to expect when he takes office in January. youtu.be/xgLTZ0Da-gw?...

I wrote about what I see as the real lesson of Mamdani's victory: not that Democrats needs to move left (or right, for that matter), but that they should try to build real-world relationships with normal voters. publiccomment.blog/p/mamdani-th...

It was affordability that more than anything won those elections.

To “marginally increase taxes on [those] who have benefitted most from the massive value generated by the human system that is New York..to use those revenues to fund programs that will benefit the humans in New York that generated the value” makes him “a dangerous radical” to some. Hero to most.
Today I wrote about Zohran Mamdani's historic win, the energizing power of holding to shared principles of decency, and a taxonomy of the endlessly intertwined relationship between shame and vision. www.the-reframe.com/the-extraord...

Mamdani got 1,036,051 votes and had 108,000 volunteers. One out of ten people who voted for him also built the campaign. Amazing.

All of us olds live in constant PTSD about Obama's campaign purposefully unwinding its volunteer army in 2009.

Good news: Mamdani's team says it's doing the opposite.

My latest anlaysis of US politics and society after #USElections2025

"For those celebrating, not just in US but in other countries facing politics of division, every daybreak begins with a glimmer"

#Mamdani: "When politics speaks to you without condescension, we can usher in new era of leadership"

NYC electing Mamdani, a democratic socialist, is a reminder that 1) Socialism has a long history in the US and 2) Americans actually LOVE socialism.

….”the price of putting a roof over your head and food on the table has tremendous electoral potency when people are struggling to do both. Zohran Mamdani may be a shiny new thing, but the moral of these elections is as old as the Appalachian mountains.”
