Good.

I don't think the man is making a point. I think he's grooming the best person for a future job. Khan is my heroine, but I'm not sure what she can do from a city position. Get her back in the game, get her name back out there. If Mamdani goes further, he takes he with him. Gods that would be a win.

Holy hell, he's bringing on basically the ONE good thing to come out of the Biden admin. Love it.

Fine by me. I’ve had family members have multiple years of hard work destroyed by private equity. It should be prohibited.
