I know, most news seems to be about the USA these days, and yeah, it’s embarrassing at times. Hahaha… yeah, a maybe a lot of the times. Sorry, world.

*BUT*… NYC is also the same place an arguable fraud and grifter (mayor Giuliani) took credit for the 9/11 response not so long ago, even as he completely betrayed the first responders… which is a whole book in itself.

NYC mayor Zohran Mamdani is an Indian guy born in Uganda. I don’t know much more than that frankly, but to me it’s like adding on to the landslide of all the greatness that came from creative immigrants to the USA. Without them, this whole nation would have completely stalled in the 18th century, FWIW.
