That's the one pick that stood out to me, more than the Bonilla pick. But fuck it he's got an absolute and irrevocable mandate to institute sharia law and communism in the five boroughs. I'm not worried about a lowly transition team member who accepted a job from Turkey's best friend.

How many people can say they've worked for an NYC mayoral administration in the 21st Century? You definitely wouldn't hire anyone from Giuliani's or Eric Adams' administration. That leaves Bloomberg and de Blasio. Mamdani made no secret about the fact he believed that de Blasio was the best mayor in his relatively short lifetime, so it's not that crazy to see de Blasio alums on the transition team. He's a mayor who has actually frozen the rent before, after all. Bonilla is one of those people who made a career out of serving vulnerable communities and was hired by Bloomberg to do woke DEI stuff, and she's someone de Blasio kept on for more woke DEI stuff. If Mamdani wants to supercharge public service to lower-income New Yorkers, it would be hard to think of someone with a better resume. Are there other candidates who could serve on the transition team? Possibly, but if they haven't worked for de Blasio, they aren't going to have as much experience doing this specific job in that specific place. NYC Mayor's office is a blueblood P4 program. Success and experience at a G5 or a lower-level P4 might not necessarily translate to success at the blueblood. I think these are all good hires. Especially Lina Khan.

How many living people, under retirement age, have experience with these particular bureaucracies? Should he have gone the Trump route of hiring HEB bagboys to head up the nation's cybersecurity agency?

That crew should never work again. Adam Silver should be furious that a nationally televised game was so unwatchable

Political malpractice not to unleash this before 2024 election, especially with the knowledge of how weak Biden and Harris were as candidates.

Starting a new thread to track the Mamdani administration https://www.msnbc.com/top-stories/latest/zohran-mamdanis-female-transition-team-features-familiar-names-rcna242140 Looks like a damn good transition team to me.

Stupid passes killed the team. Wemby settled for bad shots when he should be going to the rim on literally every possession. For christ's sake the refs were blowing whistles for EVERYTHING and Wemby didn't crack 20 points?

We have degrees from a once-prestigious university and got high paying jobs and petit bourgeois lifestyles to show for it. COVID mostly did not suck for us. But it was awful for many. And deadly.

For a long time, men didn't even try to hide it. Then times changed, and men started seeing consequences. Not enough and not often enough, but that positive change has been met with whining and resentment particularly but not exclusively from conservative groups. I suppose the next step is for consequences to be stronger, swifter, and unavoidable. And the next step after that is for our minds to not even go to those certain places. That's probably what all the microplastics are for, and it's why all the Gen Z and Gen Alpha don't care about sex anymore.

I know we all made fun of her at the time, but in retrospect that "The Iraq" girl had a point about people who don't have maps or access to maps.

Thanks. Should've been clearer. I meant video clips. Oh to see Charlie Kirk in the afterlife cope about this one
